This Kitty Lives Off Others

Miao Zhi died at eighteen, on her coming-of-age birthday, after her parents schemed to trap her in a fire. She was reborn as a cat.

A long-haired calico kitten with heterochromia.

The shop owner asked for fifty thousand yuan, and sucker Ji Shengsheng took her for twenty-five thousand.

Miao Zhi touched her deaf cat ears and labeled her new owner an idiot with too much money.

But the moment she saw the sports car, swimming pool, and mansion, she turned into a shameless suck-up.

"Ji Shengsheng, you're my god forever!"

What she didn't know was that Ji Shengsheng had severe mysophobia, the kind that required medication just to socialize.

So even though Miao Zhi had grown up dependent on others and was an expert at ingratiating herself, none of it worked on Ji Shengsheng.

She tilted her head and acted cute. Ji Shengsheng took a step back.

She put on a cutesy voice and begged. Ji Shengsheng put on her headphones.

Even when she lay flat and begged to be petted, Ji Shengsheng remained unmoved.

Miao Zhi: How can anyone resist a cute little kitten?

Ji Shengsheng remained like a goddess on her altar, looking down at Miao Zhi in the mud with aloof, distant pity.

That is, until she actually ran into the rain and knelt in the garden mud to scoop up the dying kitten.

Before losing consciousness, Miao Zhi curled her lips into a smile.

Woman, I knew you'd fall for me.

Who says I don't know how to live off a rich woman?

Not long after moving into the mansion, Miao Zhi discovered that Ji Shengsheng was not only a clean freak but stubborn to a fault.

She was burning up with a high fever, starving, yet refused to order takeout no matter what.

The kitten quietly opened a food delivery app and pushed it in front of the barely conscious Ji Shengsheng.

Summoning the strength to refuse, Ji Shengsheng said firmly, "I'll never eat takeout!"

Miao Zhi turned and went straight into the kitchen. She picked up a wok and ladle, expertly lit the stove, and cooked three dishes and a soup.

When she turned around, she saw Ji Shengsheng, usually so cold, gripping the doorframe with trembling hands, terror in her eyes.

Ji Shengsheng: A cat is cooking? I must still be asleep.

When she turned back again, there was no cat anywhere. There was only a naked cat demon crouching on the kitchen island.

After that, Ji Shengsheng always felt as if ghosts were floating around her.

Until she finally confirmed it: her kitten was that sharp-featured, short-haired cat demon!

The way she looked at the kitten changed.

Miao Zhi, who had been enjoying her salmon, felt a chill run down her back. She tilted her head, blinked, and started acting cute again.

"Becoming My Ex-Wife's Cat"

Bai Yue couldn't stand her sexless marriage, so she resolutely divorced her newlywed wife, Lu Xingxing, after just six months of an arranged marriage.

For the entire six months, her ex-wife came home late every day, busy with company business, and never put her phone down, even at meals.

There was no love between them, no sparks, not even sex.

When Bai Yue asked Lu Xingxing for a divorce, all she got was a flat "Okay."

After the divorce, Bai Yue was tricked by her best friend into going to a singles' party.

Drunk and groggy, she woke up to find herself turned into a cat.

The very cat she'd given Lu Xingxing as an engagement present.

After turning into a cat, she discovered that Lu Xingxing was a completely different person.

She called Bai Yue's name in her sleep, stared absentmindedly at Bai Yue's photo while eating, and held her clothes at night with red-rimmed eyes, overcome by longing.

Even when she held the cat, she said, "Why did your mom divorce me?"

Bai Yue, who had coveted her beauty for ages, seized the chance to rub and paw at her, licking and nibbling her.

Until Lu Xingxing's younger stepsister returned from overseas. Her ex-wife covered the kitten's eyes with one hand. "Bai Yue, you are not allowed to look at her."

Bai Yue: ??? When did I get found out?

Bai Yue: And who is this, anyway?

*

Bai Yue didn't know that on the night they divorced, Lu Xingxing had knelt before Guanyin's statue and prayed for a whole day and night:

Let Bai Yue come back to me. Even if she has to become a cat.

Bai Yue knew even less that Lu Xingxing had been so restrained because, on their wedding night, she'd found a photo of her stepsister in Bai Yue's clothes pocket. Someone had drawn a huge pink heart over the face in the photo...
