My Fluffy Pet Is Being Adorable Again Today

[Collection of standalone stories]

Unit One [A world where humans and demons coexist]: A blue bay sheepdog half-demon seme who loves money, dreams of a good life, and seems optimistic but is actually insecure and sensitive (Meng Yi) x a reliable, older CEO uke (Gu Xunyan)

Meng Yi had spent eighteen years living a hard life. On the day he came of age, someone suddenly showed up and told him he'd been switched at birth and was the real young master of a wealthy family.

He thought his good days were finally about to begin, but then discovered that the family had brought him back so he could take the fake young master's place in an arranged marriage.

Meng Yi struggled, argued, and made a fuss, but nothing worked.

He understood. This place was no different from his previous "home." He accepted it. As long as he could get the money, he would do anything.

He'd thought the Gu family would be just like his own, but once he experienced life there, he discovered it was completely different.

The servants didn't treat him coldly. He could live in a big room. He could tell people when he was sick. He could eat the dishes he liked. And when he habitually hid food because he'd grown used to being hungry, no one called him shabby.

...So this was what it felt like to be treated well.

Held in Gu Xunyan's arms, Meng Yi's eyes sparkled, and the fluffy tail behind him wagged furiously.

Unit Two [Virtual Pet App]: A big-chested, long-haired, odd-eyed Maine Coon half-demon seme who's trapped in a pet-raising app, looks fierce but is actually clingy as can be (Yu Jin) x a rich young man who is generous but miserly at first, then thinks of nothing but his own cat (Lin Hemeng)

After an accident, Yu Jin was trapped in an app and turned back into his original form: a snow-white Maine Coon with odd-colored eyes and not a single spot of another color in his coat.

The System told him that he needed the chosen one of this world to spend a certain amount of money on him before he could leave the app.

He thought it would be a difficult task, but what the cat hadn't expected was that the human would somehow win himself over. The cat only had to sit there while the human enthusiastically spent money on him.

The little cat evolved straight into a little cat king. He could even use his paws to boss the human around, and the human was happy to pamper his own cat, obeying his every whim.

The little cat had never lived such a comfortable life. Food and drink were brought right to his mouth, and his biggest daily problem was figuring out how to stop people from rubbing his belly or putting him in weird clothes.

As usual, the little cat king scratched his caretaker based purely on instinct, then licked his paws and lazily curled up in his cat bed, reluctantly agreeing to let him touch the tip of his tail.

(The System is the chubby little snake seme from Unit Five. The semes get affectionate with each other.)

Unit Three [Apocalypse, pampered seme]: A big-chested fox seme who looks cheerful and unserious but is actually desperately starved for affection and physically in terrible shape (Ye Yunyi) x a protective, strong uke with a wolf-cub streak (Jiang Shao)

Uke's point of view:

1

While leading his team in a retreat, Jiang Shao came across a blood-soaked person who seemed to be breathing his last. The man looked vaguely familiar, so Jiang Shao went over and turned him over. Well, would you look at that. It was an acquaintance.

The last time he'd seen Ye Yunyi was half a month ago. Back then, Ye had been covered in injuries as he charged into battle, while his teammates hung back, looking perfectly relaxed and acting as if none of it had anything to do with them. Jiang Shao had found it infuriating.

He couldn't help saying a few words, trying to convince Ye Yunyi to leave a team that did nothing but hold him back. But the fox hadn't listened at all. His narrow fox eyes had tilted up as he smiled and rambled about this and that, dodging the invitation to switch teams.

2

Jiang Shao coldly carried the fox, who had barely a breath left, back with him. He'd planned to mock him once he woke up, but when he actually met Ye Yunyi's hollow, lifeless gaze, the words he'd planned to say suddenly caught in his throat. He couldn't get them out.

It was the first time he'd seen the smiling fox wear an expression like that.

Unit Four [Pampered puppy seme]: A bright, cheerful, innocent, completely unguarded fitness influencer with a big chest, defined muscles that aren't too bulky, and a honey-colored mane (Su Yanyu) x his biggest fan

All of Su Yanyu's friends were streamers, and the puppy was terribly curious. After thinking it over for a long time, he decided to become a fitness influencer himself.

With help from a friend who was a beauty influencer, he edited a video he thought was excellent.

The puppy expected a bunch of fellow fitness enthusiasts to show up and discuss workouts after he posted the video. Instead, not a single fellow enthusiast appeared. A whole different crowd of netizens came rushing in, yelling things like "big-breasted man mommy" and "daddy" in all sorts of gibberish.

Unit Five: A chubby pink snake System seme (in human form, a handsome, cold-faced guy with a lean but muscular build, a big chest, and a tendency to cry easily) x a loud, chuunibyo artist uke

1

The first thing the System did after gaining its freedom was run off to the small world to find the cat Host who had stayed behind.

The cat Host spent every day lying flat and lazing around, pampered by his caretaker and living the good life. The System was envious. After thinking it over for a whole night, it decided to find a caretaker of its own.

It wasn't hard. It quickly settled on the man living next door to its Host, and successfully got taken in while in the form of a little pink snake.

The man was self-employed and had plenty of free time and money. The little snake was satisfied. Every night before going to sleep, it carefully checked to make sure it wouldn't accidentally turn into a human in its sleep.

After all, most people could accept simply keeping a snake. But if the snake turned out to be a 1.85-meter-tall man, that might be another story.

2

The peaceful days didn't last long before an accident happened. The little snake was discovered after all. It had thought the human would kick it out of the house, but it waited and waited, and not only was it not kicked out, the human got even more enthusiastic, cuddling and rubbing it all over.

The little snake was a complete mess after the human got done with it, its eyes brimming with tears of physical discomfort. It couldn't understand how things had suddenly turned out this way.

* A seme-focused anthology, with one independent couple per unit. Five are planned for now, but more may be added if inspiration strikes.

* The semes get affectionate with each other in every unit.

* Slice of life, no plot, a silly, sweet romance. There are beautiful semes, delicate semes, handsome semes, and pseudo-strong semes. All the ukes are strong.

Theme: Never give up easily.
