The Lazy Cat Becomes a Big Shot [Infinite Flow]

[Completed. After revising it several times, I did my best to make the ending work. My heartfelt thanks to every reader who gave it a look!]

[Please add my new book, Winning Dungeons with a Rebellious Streak [Infinite Flow], to your favorites! It's out now. Check it out!]

[Congratulations, you've transmigrated into an escape novel. Use your talents to escape the dungeon!]

Wu Yi, who had spent her life coasting along: "..."

-

The System says the original book has a vicious, sinister NPC villain. Because the novel was abandoned before the ending, the villain gained free will and keeps preventing the male and female leads from getting their happy ending.

Wu Yi: "Oh. What does that have to do with me?"

System: [Complete the mission and you'll receive a hundred million yuan!]

Wu Yi: "Sorry, I already have five hundred million." (Pushes up sunglasses.jpg.)

System: [...]

[You can turn into a human.]

Wu Yi lazily stretches out her cat paw. "I've got a human to scoop my litter. Being a cat is pretty nice, too."

System: [If you don't complete the mission, you'll be erased!]

Wu Yi jolts upright, nearly dead from the shock. A little piece of apple is held to her mouth. She meows and eats it, then looks at her handsome human.

If she's erased, she won't have such a great human to scoop her litter anymore.

Wu Yi: "Where's this big villain you mentioned?"

The System watches the big boss villain, wearing an apron and making dried fish for her, and says: [...] If I tell you, it'll scare you to death.

Chu Daiyun knows he's the villainous NPC in a novel, as well as the lovesick, love-crazed second male lead.

More importantly, if the male and female leads clear the game and get their happy ending, he'll be erased.

So he disguises himself as a player from the start. Then he meets a strange cat.

Chu Daiyun can understand what the cat is saying:

"I can't accept this! I still have five hundred million I haven't spent!"

"I haven't enjoyed life properly yet! I haven't eaten and drunk to my heart's content, or hired a handsome young man to keep me! I haven't reached the pinnacle of life and become a real rich woman!"

"Human, you won't get another little kitty, will you? I'll take you through the dungeons... You can only be my human!"

Once Wu Yi has pieced together all the information about the villain, her whiskers tremble. Thinking of all the times she'd bossed Chu Daiyun around, her little cat legs start to shake.

Before she can run away, Chu Daiyun scoops her into his arms and chuckles. "In the final dungeon, you'd better turn into a human."

[Note: 1. A lighthearted, comedic Infinite Flow story.

2. #A cat master and her 'useless' human.#

3. Other people face terrifying, thrilling dungeons. The cat and her human lie flat, slack off, and do nothing.]

Theme: With enough strength, even a lazybones can become a big shot.
