When the ancient mythical beast Jin Zhaozhao woke up, she found she’d been banished to the human world. Her spiritual power was pitifully weak, and she was so hungry her stomach was practically touching her back.
The good news: She’d transformed into the little kitten humans loved most.
The bad news: She was a long-haired calico, and because she ate so much, the pet shop was about to put her on clearance.
Just as she was feeling weak, pitiful, and helpless, a cool-faced man walked into the shop.
At the owner’s enthusiastic recommendation, the man merely asked in a frosty voice, “Do you have any others?”
Jin Zhaozhao: That thin gold bracelet on his wrist looks delicious.
She did her best to stretch out a little paw and brushed the soft pads against his fingertips.

Fu Hanshen used to be a well-known big spender in his circle.
Unfortunately, his luck had been terrible lately. A failed investment had left him buried in debt.
A fortune-teller told him he was missing a lucky charm, so after much thought, he went to the pet market and bought a calico cat advertised as “the least hungry and easiest to care for.”
Only after bringing her home did he discover
This cat didn’t just eat a lot. She was growing at an alarming rate, too.
Looking at the increasingly cramped living room, the little cat hugged her chubby self.
One day, Fu Hanshen bought a lottery ticket on a whim and, to his surprise, won the jackpot the next day.
Not only that, the stocks that had been so deep in the red suddenly soared, the contract negotiations that had fallen through came back around, and his career took off.
This lucky charm was definitely worth keeping!
Without letting it show, Fu Hanshen bought a giant cat bed, an eighteen-story climbing tower, and all kinds of top-quality seafood feasts, raising the little cat until she looked like an ethereal fairy.
Once, when he opened the door and came home, he didn’t see the familiar giant cat.
Instead, he saw a beautiful, fair-skinned blonde girl sitting on the top platform of the cat tree, swinging her little legs and chewing on the gold bars he’d just stocked up on.
Their eyes met.
The girl let out a burp and asked without a hint of shame, “Do you have any more? I’m still hungry.”
Fu Hanshen froze for a moment, his Adam’s apple bobbing several times.
Could this be the legendary… gold-eating beast?

Only later did Fu Hanshen learn that Jin Zhaozhao was the mythical beast Pixiu, banished to the mortal world.
For every gram of gold she ate, twice that amount of money appeared in his account, and her spiritual power recovered a little, too.
Once her spiritual power was fully restored, she could return to the realm of mythical beasts.
Fu Hanshen looked at his rapidly growing balance and, expressionless, hid all the gold bars in the house, doling them out a little at a time each day.
“You’re still hungry. I’ll keep you around a bit longer.”
Jin Zhaozhao: ?
How could anyone think they had too much money?
#What’s it like to raise a Pixiu?
#She does bring in wealth, but she sure can eat
#What do I do if my wife’s going to run off once she’s full? Asking for help, it’s urgent
