I'm Sick, Meow, Do You Still Want Me?

[Formerly a gloomy high school boy, now a jealous, protective dad-type × an adorable, fierce, sickly kitty ^v^]

[My new story "Blended Family, But Gay at an American School!" is now underway. Fake siblings and an international romance. Take a look if you’re interested!]

*

Yaoyao was a well-behaved, clingy little Scottish Fold, living a carefree life of mooching food and lodging at the home of his handsome, gloomy, aloof owner.

...Until he was diagnosed with a terminal illness.

Worried about becoming a burden to his owner, Yaoyao decided to run away. But an accident happened along the way, and he transmigrated?!

Staring at his seventeen-year-old owner, Yaoyao’s eyes lit up and he launched himself forward

^v^ Oh my cat, a handsome high school boy! Here I come!!!

*

After transmigrating and becoming classmates with his owner, Jiang Miansheng, Yaoyao resolved to find the legendary person who was his owner’s first love, hoping to change his fatal fate!

Life got even harder once he started getting his act together. He had to search everywhere for someone, pretend to be a hardworking, ambitious student, and, worst of all, resist rubbing up against Jiang Miansheng!

Meow, grit your teeth! Meow, work hard!

Fortunately, his efforts paid off, and Yaoyao finally found the first love!

But before he could relax, he started worrying about how to get the two together. Nobody told him his owner and his first love were practically strangers!

He’d heard that people could grow closer after drinking, so Jiang Yaoyao bought a pile of alcohol.

Unfortunately, the first love never showed up, and Jiang Miansheng coaxed Yaoyao into drinking it all himself.

Through his bleary eyes, he suddenly heard a soft pop above his head

A pair of snowy-white cat ears appeared.

And his tail curled softly around Jiang Miansheng’s finger!

Jiang Yaoyao looked up in bewilderment at Jiang Miansheng’s dark expression.

It’s over... I’ve been found out.

With that look on his face, Owner’s going to hate me now...

Yaoyao lowered his ears in disappointment and was about to leave. His hand had just touched the doorknob when he heard a click.

The door was locked from the inside?!!

In the darkness, a low, hoarse voice sounded against the back of his neck:

“Jiang Yaoyao, has anyone else seen you like this?”

A warm palm suddenly covered the cat ears on his head. A callused fingertip rubbed the most sensitive downy spot at their base, then slowly slid from the tip to the outer edge.

The man’s breathing grew heavy. His voice trembled, and his movements were restrained to the point of ferocity.

“Have you let anyone else touch your ears? Hmm?”

“...”

“And your tail?”

*

Jiang Miansheng fell for a foolish little cat-person who was terrible at acting. After holding back as long as he could, he let himself confess while drunk.

Then his cat disappeared.

On a rainy night three years later, a cold, ruthless business magnate opened his door and rescued a barely living kitten.

Soaked through and shivering, the little cat curled into a ball.

Recognizing its familiar markings, Jiang Miansheng’s face turned cold as he scooped it up and carried it back to his room.

One day, the fluffy little ball sleeping beside him suddenly turned into a person.

In the bed, he showed a rounded shoulder and lifted his tear-reddened eyes to look at the man in front of him. He asked timidly, “Jiang Miansheng... I’m sick. Do you still want me?”

The man looked at him silently for a few seconds, his dark face like a ghost in the night.

Yaoyao was trying to retreat when someone suddenly pulled him into a scorching embrace.

The chest against him heaved violently, and the fingers gripping him tightened again and again.

A few seconds later, a damp patch spread across Jiang Yaoyao’s shoulder.

How could he not want him?

No one knew how long Jiang Miansheng had been waiting for this day.

[Extra Scene]

Yaoyao had never known that turning into a cat-person could bring such a scorching, unbearable heat.

In the dorm late at night, he curled up deep beneath the covers. His skin burned beneath his thin pajamas, and he clutched the sheets tightly, not daring to let even a whimper escape.

The edge of the bed suddenly sank a little.

A heavy shadow, carrying the faint smell of alcohol, fell over him.

Before he could figure out who it was, a cool hand clasped the back of his neck, and scorching lips crushed against his parted lips without warning.

The kiss was forceful, leaving him no chance to dodge, and full of the aggression he could no longer suppress after drinking.

The instant he recognized the face right in front of him

Jiang Yaoyao’s mind exploded with a loud buzz.

M-Master?!

What? This can’t be right ⊙0⊙!!!

[Reader’s Guide]:

* A sweet story of mutual healing between two virgins. The pursuer goes from gloomy cool guy to controlling dad-type; the kitty is the first love himself. He turns human in chapter two. The story focuses on the two leads and their romance, with 40% school and 60% city life.

* Sweet and cute at first, with a mild angst warning for the realistic storyline in the middle. Happy ending.

* The pursuer transmigrates multiple times to save the beloved. They take turns saving each other at different points in the story. The beloved isn’t really a cat; they’re both human. Think second-chance romance.

* The secondary couple is Liao Du. They don’t appear much, but become relevant to the main plot later.

"Coming Soon"

"Blended Family, But Gay at an American School!"

His mom falls for an American hunk, marries him, and brings along her unemployed freeloader of a son, Ruan Su.

On his first day, Ruan Su can’t beat the jet lag and sneaks into a bar in the middle of the night.

The lights are dazzling, the music vibrates in his chest, and someone presses against him from behind, a hand gripping his waist as they lean down and say something in his ear.

The English is low and fast. Ruan Su can’t make it out, but he catches the crisp scent of wood.

Then they end up in bed together.

He wakes up in a big hotel bed, the curtains drawn and the light dim.

The man, fully dressed, sits on the sofa looking at his phone. When he sees Ruan Su open his eyes, he turns toward him, his blue eyes dark in the dim light.

“Breakfast or lunch? Take your pick. I ordered room service.”

Ruan Su’s throat is too sore to speak, his waist aches, and his knees are covered in marks.

Embarrassed, he waves his hands and wraps himself tightly in the blanket. “No, no. I have a family gathering tonight. Thanks, though.”

Luckily, the other man is a gentleman. He gives Ruan Su the underwear he washed the night before and even calls him a car.

When Ruan Su gets home in a hurry, the dining table is already laden with food.

His mom hurries over, puts an arm around him, and gestures toward the inner room. “Go say hello to your big brother Saul. You’re real brothers now.”

Ruan Su drags his still-wobbly legs over and knocks on the door.

It opens.

Ruan Su looks up and meets a pair of blue eyes he knows all too well.

*

Reese Leissel, an off-road racing driver in the United States.

His races always sell out, and it’s hard enough to get a ticket, let alone get close to him.

But after one off-road rally

The blond, dark-eyed man takes off his helmet and walks over to the stands, where he accepts a bottle of water someone has already drunk from.

The whole crowd erupts, wanting to know who the black-haired boy is.

“I’m his younger brother,” Ruan Su answers earnestly.

As they leave, a teammate glances suspiciously at the handsome Chinese face in the stands, then turns to the man and asks,

“Who’s that to you?”

Leissel raises an eyebrow and slowly says three words: “My wife.”
