Shi Qi is a cat, a good cat, a handsome, well-proportioned tuxedo cat. He's just not very bright, and a man takes advantage of him as soon as he arrives in the city.
The tuxedo cat is naturally optimistic and has a bad memory. Being tricked doesn't stop him from pursuing his big-city dreams. The cat works hard, and thanks to his good looks and sweet way with words, he gets hired as a secretary at a major company.
But after working for just a month, Shi Qi suddenly discovers he's pregnant! Luckily, the cat's pregnancy isn't very noticeable. As long as he wears loose clothes, no one will find out.
However, the pregnant cat's spiritual power weakens, and after sunset he may involuntarily turn back into his original form.
Pregnancy also makes the cat a little sensitive, and he finds his boss, Lu Mingzhong, terribly annoying because he keeps picking on him.
Lu Mingzhong is tall and imposing, with a very bad temper. He has five assistants, who each take turns being his special assistant one day a week.
That's because no one can put up with Mingzhong for two days in a row.
One day after work, it was already late, and Shi Qi had been the special assistant that day, so he'd exhausted all his strength. As soon as he reached the bottom of the office building, Shi Qi couldn't help turning back into a cat.
Then a pair of hands scooped the cat firmly into their arms.
Those hands were incredibly strong, and for a moment Shi Qi couldn't break free.
And so Shi Qi was forced to become a house cat.

Lu Mingzhong picks up a cat, a handsome, well-proportioned tuxedo cat. It probably came from the strays near the company, but it's very pretty, with a perfectly symmetrical face and soft, long fur, nearly as lovely as an expensive ragdoll.
Lu Mingzhong has never had much luck with animals. Even the animals at the zoo avoid him, let alone the strays on the street.
Only this little tuxedo cat charges straight at him.
Lu Mingzhong immediately decides to take the cat home, becoming its devoted servant and treating it to the best food and care.
What's more, a month later, the cat he picked up gives birth to a kitten.
Something's not right. Unless he's mistaken, this cat is male.
After exactly three seconds of wrestling with the thought, Lu Mingzhong decides to leave it at that and raise the kitten first.
But the cat he rescued turns out to be horribly irresponsible. It abandons its kitten and disappears.
Another month passes. Lu Mingzhong searches for the adult cat while caring for the kitten at home. The kitten gradually grows.
Something's not right. Unless he's mistaken, the kitten doesn't look like a cat at all. It looks a little like a wolf.
Lu Mingzhong strokes his own fluffy tail.
"Does this mean pets grow up to look like their owners?"
[Extra scene]
After the adult cat goes missing, Lu Mingzhong prints missing-cat flyers and shares a post looking for it in the company group chat.
Neighbors and coworkers alike shake their heads and say they haven't seen the cat.
Then someone suggests that Lu Mingzhong include a photo of the kitten. Maybe the adult cat will see its child and come back out of longing.
Lu Mingzhong thinks that's an excellent idea.
That day, Shi Qi happens to be on duty as the special assistant.
Shi Qi sees Lu Mingzhong using his kitten as his phone wallpaper and hesitates, not knowing whether to speak.
After a long pause, he manages to say,
"Your kitten looks quite a bit like me."
Upcoming novel: "Can I Still Work with My Ex-Husband After Divorce, Even with a Kid?" Blurb
A gloomy, ghostlike newcomer actor top and a proud, gorgeous best-actor bottom. A secret-crush story with lots of baby content
Xia Zhiqing made his debut at four as a child star and became a popular top-tier star in show business at twenty. At twenty-two, on an impulse, he married his rival Xi Wenjing over a bet. But less than three months into the marriage, Xia Zhiqing discovered that he was unexpectedly pregnant!
After examining him, the doctor explained that Xia Zhiqing had a special constitution and would die unless he gave birth to the baby.
Terrified by the blow, Xia Zhiqing ran away overnight, divorcing, retiring from show business, and hiding away to carry the baby to term, all in one go.
Three years later, with the baby now two, Xia Zhiqing decides to announce his comeback to earn formula money!
As luck would have it, his first comeback role is in a sweet story about two male leads. In the show, the protagonists are the company's star employees, constantly arguing over who's number one. In private, however, they're together, going home to sleep in the same bed. The tension of falling for one's enemy is off the charts.
He hears that his costar is a newly popular top-tier star and a regular on trending searches.
Xia Zhiqing assumes he's just a pretty-faced junior who relies on his looks. He swears, with eighteen years of acting experience, to teach the kid what real acting is.
At the cast meet-and-greet, Xia Zhiqing faints on the spot.
His other costar is none other than his ex-husband, Xi Wenjing.
Before filming begins, the director asks the two leads to live together for a month to build chemistry and bring out the sizzling tension between their characters. Xia Zhiqing is about to refuse when Xi Wenjing turns around and provokes him.
"What, are you scared?"
Xia Zhiqing takes the bait completely.
"Who's scared of you!"
The two-year-old baby has never been away from Dad for so long and isn't used to it, so during their cohabitation, a friend brings the child to visit every few days.
The little one, Gaogao, has just learned to walk and can say a few short phrases.
Xia Zhiqing and his friend sit on the soft carpet, clapping their hands as Gaogao runs over from the other side of the living room. It's such a loving, heartwarming picture of father and child, almost like a family of three. Xi Wenjing watches, consumed with jealousy.
After this happens several times, Xi Wenjing can't take it anymore. One evening, when the friend comes to visit with the child again, he corners Xia Zhiqing against the bathroom wall, smiling as if amused while gritting his teeth.
"Tell me, whose child is that?"
Xia Zhiqing guiltily looks up at the ceiling.
"Anyway, not yours."
Xi Wenjing gives a cold laugh.
"Is that so? But when you got pregnant with him, we hadn't gotten divorced yet."
[Extra scene]
Xi Wenjing and Xia Zhiqing's families were neighbors when they were children. They went to the same high school and were even classmates.
The two competed with each other from childhood, battling over grades and awards until the fighting never stopped.
In high school, they started competing over who received more love letters.
Xia Zhiqing was already a somewhat famous star in high school, but Xi Wenjing was the school heartthrob, and they received exactly the same number of love letters.
Then Xi Wenjing pulled another envelope out of his math book and tossed it onto the pile of love letters, looking triumphant.
"I win. From today on, you have to grant me one wish."
From that day on, Xia Zhiqing ate dinner with Xi Wenjing for a month.
Many years later, after the two were finally married, Xi Wenjing took Xia Zhiqing to the storeroom and dug a box out from among the old things. Inside were lots of Xia Zhiqing's belongings, including the envelope Xi Wenjing had taken from his math book.
"Actually, you won that contest." Xi Wenjing opened the letter. It read:
To my dearest Ah Qing. Signed, Xi Wenjing, who loves you most.
P.S. The friend is purely a plot device and has no romantic relationship with any of the main characters!
Theme: If you hold on to your dreams, one day they will come true
Ask the author a big question!!! Will this kitten - will it - grow up to be a husky? Judging from the fur inherited from both parents, the possibility of being a Husky is very high!
