[Cool, abstinent O pretending to be an A commander cat shou x silver-tongued, play-the-pig-to-eat-the-tiger green-tea dog gong] [Traditional A/O story] [Two strong leads, sweet romance] [Semi-beast form]
★ The commander is an O pretending to be an A, a cat pretending to be a tiger.
★ The gong has a secret identity. They both have their secrets exposed, and reunite after a long separation. The gong isn't actually a dog.
Shen Xi, the number-one commander in the galaxy, is cool and abstinent, with an iron-fisted style. He's an untouchable beauty, the object of countless people's lifelong pursuit.
One day, while out on a mission, he was confronted by a target. The boy was a young Alpha, fair-skinned and black-haired. When he smiled, he looked like a dirty little bun, yet he had an exceptionally beautiful pair of dark green eyes, as tranquil and deep as a lake, impossible to forget after one glance.
The boy waved hard, the shackles in his hands flashing silver, and called out, "Commander! Will you come with me? I'll pick up junk to support you!"
"..."
A cold, deathly silence.
The commander looked down at him indifferently, but didn't respond.
Everyone was waiting to collect the boy's corpse.
A04, a prison for the most dangerous offenders. The boy held the commander tightly in his arms, his voice low and hoarse. "You heartless thing, you left without a word."
Then he hugged him tighter, trembling as he tenderly kissed the commander's cold fingertips, again and again.
Shen Xi's face, damp with sweat, rested against the boy's collarbone. His eyes were lowered, long lashes dusted with snow.
The boy said again, "Kitten, I've missed you so much."
Ten years ago, Zhu Yan happened to pass by General Shen's residence and rescued a kitten from a fire.
The Shen family's cat was famous for being difficult to raise and a whole lot of trouble.
Zhu Yan told the kitten, "The Shen family is gone now. From here on, you need to keep your temper in check. Come on, today I'll teach you how to pick up junk."
He became a dad while still a child himself. Whenever Zhu Yan went to pick up junk, he had to hang a baby bottle from his chest, carry a cat in his arms, and stuff dried fish into his pockets.
Later, the cat left.
He didn't go looking for it.
Zhu Yan had kept a secret in his heart for thirteen whole years.
He thought he could keep it hidden for the rest of his life.
But as he looked at the commander in his arms, covered in wounds yet stubbornly refusing to take his pheromones, Zhu Yan sighed.
It seemed he couldn't keep it hidden any longer.
His kitten had been taking terrible care of himself.
The story is already fully plotted. The blurb may be adjusted slightly, but the story won't change. The title may change.
