The Cat-Demon Boss Begs to Keep Me

Qiao Youyang dies in a car accident. When she wakes up, she's back at the turning point of her fate, and she also awakens memories from a previous, previous life.

It turns out she's someone who transmigrated into a book. Once the story begins, she's controlled by the plot and forced to follow the path of a brainless cannon-fodder female side character and fake heiress.

Every day, she antagonizes the real heiress, making her look kind and wonderful.

To avoid repeating the mistakes of her past life, she decides to disrupt the plot and make up for her regrets. There are so many things she wants to do.

"You're the real daughter of the Qiao family."

"I don't like him. There's someone I do like."

"She's the one I like."

Chi Xiangkui, a cat spirit, has just finished writing a novel when a muddleheaded novice System mistakenly binds itself to her. The future information the System reveals piques her interest.

In the future, someone will think of her until the day they die and wish for her happiness.

Before she can go looking for this person, they show up at her door on their own.

What a coincidence. Isn't this the woman who caught a cold and fainted into her arms a couple of days ago, and whom she took to the hospital?

"She's the future lover I'm supposed to have?"

"Check the affection meter before you say that."

She says she likes me, but the affection meter above her head is stuck at close-friend level...

The original female lead is utterly confused: So the person who used to pick fights with me every day actually likes my smiling boss?

Things to know before reading:

1. Both leads have liked other people before, but Qiao's feelings in her previous life were mainly caused by the plot. They weren't what she wanted.

2. Humans and spirits coexist in this world, but only a few people know about the spirits. The worldbuilding is entirely my own.

3. Important note: The System is a scatterbrain with limited functions, but it's not an ordinary System either. You'll find out later. The original female lead is not villainized.

4. Melodramatic, slow-paced, mostly slice of life. If that doesn't work for you, please read with caution. If you think it's not for you, feel free to click away. No need to leave a comment when you drop it. Until we meet again in another story!

5. I'm open to feedback, but no personal attacks. They'll all bounce right back. Let's all get along. You're welcome to save the story and read it later.

6. First published on Jinjiang. No scraping, reposting, or pirating, please! Thank you! Former title: "My Boss Is Actually a Cat Spirit"

Theme: Never give up hope. No matter how difficult things are now, take each day seriously. The sun always comes out after the storm.
