What’s It Like to Protect the Villain Every Day?

Protective max-level wolfdog bottom, Zhong Xingwen x sickly, cat-act-playing white tiger top, Jiang Xiuqi

After being reborn, Zhong Xingwen bit through a porcelain bowl and had an epiphany: a cannon fodder character's memories only last an hour.

He only remembered that he was a passerby cannon fodder in a novel and had to protect the male lead, or the villain would destroy the world.

Um... what did the male lead look like again? He seemed to be his favorite kind of catfolk, a white-haired cat with different-colored eyes, surnamed Jiang. What was his given name? He'd forgotten.

On the second day after being reborn, Zhong Xingwen found the "male lead" being bullied on campus and pulled him under his protective wing.

"I'll look after you from now on!" Zhong Xingwen wagged his tail furiously at Jiang Xiuqi.

Ah, a kitty! He loved aloof, proud cats best. He would make sure to protect this catfolk beastman!

Later, Jiang Zi'an came to find him. "You were reborn because of me. I'm the real male lead of this world, and I like you."

Only then did Zhong Xingwen realize... he'd protected the wrong person...

Jiang Xiuqi wasn't the male lead. He was the villain. And he wasn't a little cat. He was a huge tiger.

Zhong Xingwen wanted to switch his protection target in a hurry, but it was too late.

One moment, Jiang Xiuqi was looking at him pitifully. "Wifey, you can only pet me. Meow~" The next, he had Zhong Xingwen by the scruff. "If you dare go looking for Jiang Zi'an, I'll rip out every last bit of his fur!"
