Blurb:

Recently, the Demon Lord Xiao Yuyuan kept hearing someone who called itself a System chattering incessantly in his mind.

The System told him that he would soon turn into a black cat. The only way to regain his true form was to accept being bound to it and help the target, [Yan You], rise above everyone else.

Xiao Yuyuan scoffed, his tone arrogant. "What are you supposed to be? You think you're worthy of binding me?!"

The System replied without expression, "Host Xiao Yuyuan has abandoned the mission. Punishment commencing."

So Xiao Yuyuan went to a tavern for a drink, and the tavern exploded. He went to cultivate at Tongtian Ravine, and the ravine collapsed...

Then one day he woke up and found that he really had turned into a cat: a fluffy black cat with little plum-blossom paws.

Only then did Xiao Yuyuan remember what the System had said. He was worrying about how to find Yan You when he saw a young sword cultivator standing by Luoling Terrace, a silver sword broken in two lying on the ground.

The name Yan You was unmistakably engraved on its hilt.

!!!

Jumping from Luoling Terrace meant certain annihilation. Xiao Yuyuan leapt at him, hoping to talk the mission target out of killing himself.

But when he opened his mouth, all that came out was:

Meow meow meow?

-

Yan You had been a gifted sword cultivator of Qingming Sect, but when it was discovered that his meridians were blocked, his hopes of cultivation ended.

When disaster struck, everyone abandoned and bullied him. He went from an admired genius to a useless nobody. In despair, he climbed onto Luoling Terrace.

Then a little black cat threw itself at him without hesitation, and tumbled into his once-dark life.

After he adopted it, Yan You's disastrous life seemed to light up. His cultivation advanced, his spiritual roots opened, he obtained immortal treasures and stumbled upon great opportunities...

He transformed from a down-and-out sword cultivator into the untouchable number one in the immortal sects. Before long, the great masters of every sect had their eyes on him, and even the Demon Lord Xiao Yuyuan came to befriend him.

One day,

Yan You noticed a fiery red mark appearing on Xiao Yuyuan's forehead whenever he cultivated. It looked exactly like the markings on his black cat, and Xiao Yuyuan's habits were just like the cat's, too.

He couldn't resist reaching out to stroke Xiao Yuyuan's head.

The mighty Demon Lord opened his mouth and said: Meow???

01

Jiang Qinzhou turned down an actor-training variety show, thinking it was beneath him.

Later, a clip from a promotional interview went viral and made him a sensation.

In the video, a man named He Yi was cool and taciturn.

Only at the very end of the interview did the director's voice ask, "Which actor in the industry would you most like to work with?"

He Yi lowered his eyes and smiled. "I'd like to work with Teacher Jiang Qinzhou."

"...I've liked Teacher Jiang for many years."

When the video reached Jiang Qinzhou, he was furiously arguing with haters on an alternate account.

After three hundred rounds of insults, he won the fight but still wasn't happy.

That damn He Yi was the ex-boyfriend who had stabbed him in the back in the worst way.

Cheaters belong in the trash.

Then, seeing an opportunity for something more interesting, Jiang Qinzhou sneered and called the director.

The show? He'd take it.

02

The variety show premiered.

Jiang Qinzhou didn't hide his annoyance, openly mocking He Yi with cutting sarcasm.

But He Yi remained good-natured and answered every jab, making his double standards crystal clear.

With everyone else: "Mm. Sure. No."

With Teacher Jiang: "Are you cold? Are you hungry? You don't like sleeping facing right, so you can have the bed on the left..."

The two fandoms, who could argue for eight hundred rounds at the drop of a hat, fell silent.

Passersby: Wait, He Yi has Teacher Jiang pinned at the top of his WeChat? I'm sold!

Later, the more people dug, the more they found.

They even uncovered the fact that the two had dated before.

As fan content flooded the internet and fans went wild shipping them,

Jiang Qinzhou posted a clarification in the early hours of the morning: [We've broken up.]

He attached a reaction image of a black garbage bag being thrown into a trash can, with the caption "Ex-boyfriend" on the bag.

The sarcasm was off the charts.

The stars themselves had just sunk their ship. The ship's fans wailed, individual fans rejoiced, and passersby picked up crumbs and watched the drama...

Everyone was in an uproar, each side stirring up trouble and having the time of their lives.

Just as the attention began to die down, a camera caught them in a corner during a live awards show.

Jiang Qinzhou smiled as he leaned close to whisper in He Yi's ear, then dragged him into the elevator in a fit of temper.

Inside the glass elevator, the two men, who seemed like enemies, kissed passionately.

Everyone in the livestream: ???

Weren't they supposed to have a bad ending???

So they confessed and got back together after all?!

Only He Yi knew that Jiang Qinzhou's whispered words were a knife that cut deep without drawing blood:

"Trying to pull a stunt and steal roles again? Why not get back together with me instead?"

"Three months. I'll give you the male lead role in this drama. How about it?"
