When Lin Xi woke up, he was annoyed.

Because he'd turned into a cat and was stuck hanging from a tree.

Well, he'd turned into a cat, but at least he was still alive. He just hadn't expected life as a kitten to be so hard:

First, a bird pecked him until he ran away with his head in his paws while trying to catch it.

Then, while fishing, he almost got dragged underwater by a big fish.

And on top of that, a nasty yellow dog chased him up a tree, where he was too scared to climb down.

After three days of hunger, his free-spirited cat life came to an end, and Lin Xi gave up.

First step to lying flat: find a human to scoop his litter!

After spending a whole day crouching by the pond, stubbornly clinging to his target, acting cute, and faking an injury, Lin Xi was finally taken home by a human who suited his tastes.

Second step to lying flat: let them pet and cuddle him, and become a proper house cat!

But he hadn't expected that the human he'd carefully chosen, who looked respectable and decent on the surface, was secretly a cat-obsessed addict!

Seriously, what's so great about pink cat paws? And mangosteens? Pah! Mangosteens are in the supermarket, not on his paws!

His little belly is a primordial pouch, not a hand warmer. Stop squeezing his belly fat every chance you get!

And don't kittens have any right to privacy? That creep watched him use the litter box, nearly leaving him with psychological trauma.

This was absolutely unbearable!

Luckily, the wheel of fortune turned, and after New Year's, luck finally came his way.

As his human was kissing and cuddling him and lifting him high, Lin Xi suddenly transformed into a person against his will.

A cat turned into a human! Now his human should be the one left traumatized, right?

Unexpectedly, the guy looked delighted and gave his cat ears a vigorous rub. "So my baby really is a cat demon!"

"Meow meow meow?"

Synopsis for the upcoming novel Ghost Baby

As a poor, weak, but voracious ghost fetus, A Bao has to worry herself sick over her strong, crazy, and equally voracious mother.

Everyday life for a ghost mother and daughter

"Mom! Open your mouth! That's a living soul, not a snack!"

A Bao shouted herself hoarse, finally rescuing the "food" from her ghost mom's mouth. She saved the person and spared them both from accumulating more sins.

Ah! What a good ghost she was.

"Mom! Stop! We're here for an all-you-can-eat buffet, not to fight!"

A Bao was drenched in sweat, but finally got her mom to stop obsessing over tearing fierce ghosts limb from limb. When they were in a frigid, sinister place, absorbing yin energy to fill their bellies was obviously more important.

Hey! Stop fighting!

"Mom! Run! That's a group outing of celestial masters. We can't beat them!"

A Bao trembled. Why was her mom so reckless? Couldn't she see their Soul-Summoning Banners, Bewitching Bells, and Human-Skin Drums?

Better to keep your head down while you still can.

What was she supposed to do with a mom like this, when she was still in her belly and couldn't survive on her own?

All she could do was help her mom study hard and improve every day, hoping to become a powerful good ghost and reincarnate as soon as possible.

So the ghost mom carried her belly around robbing homes and looting (not really), absorbing the essence of Heaven and Earth, exorcising evil ghosts (by physical means), righting wrongs, and earning a little money to support herself.

After countless hardships, she finally gave birth to A Bao.

From ghost fetus to ghost baby: keep going, she's one step closer to growing up.

Next, she could get a good next life and be reborn as a human, right? A Bao rubbed her hands together in excitement.

But what was going on with the spiritual energy fading, the Underworld falling into chaos, and all souls unable to be reincarnated properly?

A Bao looked devastated. Was the sky falling? Where was the tall guy? Get out here and hold it up!

A certain tall guy: "Hey~ Were you calling me?"
