After I Turned into a Cat, My Childhood Friend Started Acting Strange

(My next story will be Crush Teaches Me How to Pursue Him, So Please Bookmark It!)

Liao Quchi had always dreamed of becoming a cat, and on his eighteenth birthday, his wish came true.

He woke up, looked at the long-haired orange cat in the mirror, and nearly swooned at how adorable he was.

With his new secret identity, Liao Quchi started swaggering around, determined to put his annoying childhood friend Zhao Jiaxu under his paw.

But whenever he got close to Zhao Jiaxu, the other guy's expression turned strangely complicated...

Zhao Jiaxu woke up one day and realized that Liao Quchi seemed to have changed.

He was more popular and more likable. Everyone praised him for being cute, pretty, and nimble, and they were always patting his head.

Liao Quchi said he was a cat and often meowed, but nobody around them thought there was anything odd about it.

Zhao Jiaxu stared at Liao Quchi, who looked entirely human, and fell into thought...

Liao Quchi tried once again to climb onto Zhao Jiaxu's head, only for Zhao Jiaxu to dodge him as if he'd predicted it.

Refusing to give up, he crouched by the bed in the middle of the night, ready to wait until Zhao Jiaxu fell asleep and claim the throne.

But Liao Quchi grew sleepy before Zhao Jiaxu stopped playing on his phone.

At his wit's end, Liao Quchi growled, "Zhao Jiaxu, don't make me knock you out."

Just as he reached out a paw, everything went dark. He was rolled up in a blanket like a crepe.

Zhao Jiaxu's disdainful voice sounded beside him. "You need someone to hold you to sleep? What a spoiled brat."

Liao Quchi: ???

---Crush Teaches Me How to Pursue Him---

On the first day of sophomore year, Lin Yushu finally worked up the courage to send his crush Love Letter.docx.

But it was quickly sent back with a chilly reply: The formatting is wrong. Rewrite it.

One attempt at making the first move, and he was shy for life. Lin Yushu went to a bar to drink his sorrows away. His friends all told him to stop while he still could...

Then his phone chimed.

Crush: Busy?

Crush: I fixed it for you. Love Letter (1).docx

Lin Yushu: O.O!!!

*

There had been a little detour, but the love letter had finally been delivered. Lin Yushu felt he was one step closer to his crush.

The department organized a weekend camping trip, and he asked his crush if he was going.

Crush: Yeah. I heard there's a meteor shower tonight. We can go to the top of the mountain and make a wish.

Lin Yushu: Why leave the group? We'll get in trouble.

Crush: ...It's called a date.

Lin Yushu: Oh, right!

It suddenly rained during the sports meet, so Lin Yushu brought his crush an umbrella.

Crush: It's not raining hard. Let's share one.

Lin Yushu: I have an umbrella. Why squeeze together? Won't it be hot?

Crush: ...It's called warming up our relationship.

Lin Yushu: Oh, right!

As autumn turned to winter, Lin Yushu treated his crush to milk tea.

Crush: Is yours good?

Lin Yushu: It's great! You want some too? Then why didn't you order the same thing as me?

Crush: ...

Without his crush prompting him this time, Lin Yushu took half an hour to figure it out.

He quickly held the milk tea up to his crush's lips and blurted out, "Oh, I get it! This is called an indirect kiss!"

His crush skipped the milk tea and kissed the corner of Lin Yushu's mouth instead. "This is called kissing. Got it?"

With his crush teaching him every step of the way, the two did everything they were supposed to do, and were working on the things they weren't supposed to do...

At the final step, Lin Yushu called for a pause. Blushing, he asked, "Qin Yixi, have I graduated?"

As soon as Qin Yixi nodded, Lin Yushu pulled up his pants, his gaze resolute. "Then I'm going to start pursuing you!"

Qin Yixi sat on the edge of the bed, completely dumbfounded: ?.
