A Beastworld Farming and Cat-Petting Diary

[I'm sorry, but I'm really not good at writing farming stories. New readers, please don't buy this. I'll ask my editor to unlock the later chapters.] Mu Yan transmigrated into a beastfolk world, and the transmigration god even matched him with a future husband: silver hair, blue eyes, tall and long-legged, with beautiful muscles. Mm! I could totally get into... Wait, am I getting carried away? Hmph! Of course I mean building a career! Clearing land and farming, taming and raising animals, making pottery and salt: every one of those takes stamina and energy. "Isn't that right, Xiao?" Xiao, silver-haired and blue-eyed, smiled and leaned in to kiss his cheek. "Whatever you say." Mu Yan: Ahem... Well, I guess I can see the appeal. - Before transmigrating, Mu Yan had a little hobby: he liked reading survival guides for transmigrating before bed. After finishing one, he would always add, "I've learned nothing. Just waiting to transmigrate." But after actually transmigrating, Mu Yan wanted to cry and chop off his own hands! The worst part was that his body had differentiated into a sub-beastman, the kind that could have children. Heh. Better to die early and be reborn sooner. Grrr... His stomach was rumbling fiercely. Mu Yan... Mu Yan promptly climbed to his feet. Come to think of it, the beast world was pretty great. If he wanted to pet a second-class protected animal, he could pet one. If he wanted to pet a first-class protected animal, he could pet one. He could even pet the national treasure, the giant panda. But no matter how much fun they were to pet, Mu Yan's favorite was still his own partner, a huge, snowy-white wolf who looked just like an angelic dog. Unfortunately, though petting him felt wonderful, it came with risks. Mu Yan clutched his aching waist and angrily bit his partner's finger. Somehow, he even made him laugh. Mu Yan: "..." He laughed too. How could he not? At some point, the tribe's underground storehouses had filled with more food than they could eat. The cold, crude cave had become a warm, comfortable concrete house. The old, weak, sick, and disabled could all eat their fill and stay warm, even during the frigid snow season. [Reader's Guide] Slow burn. No childbirth in the main story. Many personal liberties have been taken, so please don't overanalyze. Please follow my upcoming novel, "In the Beast World, Obviously You Pet Cats First." Question: What's the first thing you should do after transmigrating into a beast world? Make pottery and salt, clear land and farm, or raise livestock and build infrastructure? Bai Yu: No, no, no! Obviously, it's happily and thoroughly petting and cuddling cats! Looking at all the little tiger cubs, Pallas's cats, snow leopard cubs, and black-and-white national treasure babies, Bai Yu's heart nearly melted from the cuteness. He picked them up one by one, cuddling, snuggling, and kissing them. The little ones purred contentedly, their tiny paws kneading the air like they were making biscuits. Oh, my inner teenage heart! Bai Yu was so absorbed in cuddling them that he couldn't lift his head, until a voice dripping with jealousy came from behind him: "A Yu, having fun?" Bai Yu, caught by his partner: ... The next second, a tall, powerful golden tiger flopped onto the ground, exposing his most vulnerable belly. His giant paws kneaded the air just like the cubs', and his deep voice even meowed. Bai Yu: ... Grown-up cats, don't act like babies! But... Ahhh, big cats are great to cuddle too! After a moment's hesitation, Bai Yu, a devoted fluff-lover, excitedly pounced on his lover's soft belly. The cubs, abandoned and fuming, glared with wide eyes: The chief is copying them! Shameless! Shame on him! "Childhood Friends and a Fated Reunion" When Shen Xing'an was little, he lived next door to Huo Xingyan. At the time, five-year-old Shen Xing'an followed him around like a little shadow, sticking to him until he was ten. Then his parents divorced, and after choosing to live with his mother, he never saw Huo Xingyan again. He thought they would never meet again, but at a casting dinner, Huo Xingyan appeared as the biggest investor, elegant and charismatic. The only problem was that Shen Xing'an wasn't exactly happy, because his life was... ahem... a little rough. He had to bow and scrape, laughing and drinking with the others, while putting up with them feeling him up. Huo Xingyan watched him with a deep, unreadable gaze, making him feel even more humiliated. Just as Shen Xing'an decided he'd rather offend someone than put up with this, Huo Xingyan's deep, steady voice rang out unhurriedly: "Come here. Sit with me." Shen Xing'an: ? - Huo Xingyan's friends soon heard the news: their aloof, celibate CEO Huo had apparently taken a young celebrity as his kept lover. Their curiosity instantly flared, and they all pressed him for details. Huo Xingyan casually flicked ash from his cigarette with his long, slender fingers and said coolly, "I'm not keeping him. He's just a younger friend I knew when we were kids. I felt sorry for him, so I gave him a hand." He sounded so sincere that his friends believed him. Until a video surfaced online: in a dim underground parking garage, a tall man had Shen Xing'an, a popular celebrity, pinned against a car door and was kissing him passionately. The whole internet exploded, everyone guessing who the kisser was. But while netizens couldn't figure it out, his friends knew at a glance who it was! The singles chat exploded: [Not keeping him?] [Your little~friend~?] [Hah, men and their lies!] After a long while, Huo Xingyan replied: [I'm taken. Leaving the group now.] His friends: !!!
