The Little Cub Is Here to Pick a Fight

An Yiqing is a very ordinary person.

He goes to work at the same time every day and gets off on time, living a simple, unassuming life in the old district of Imperial Star.

But he has a secret.

He has a childhood friend who became an Imperial general at a very young age.

After an accident brought the two of them together, An Yiqing heard on the news that his childhood friend had a marriage arrangement. He blocked him, deleted him, and did it all in one go.

Heartbroken, he went traveling in the remote countryside. Not long afterward, to his amazement, he laid a little white egg.

An Yiqing's spirits lifted. He thought it was the child he had with his childhood friend.

He incubated the egg for a full ten months, but it still showed no sign of hatching.

One day, he put it in an incubator and went grocery shopping. He was gone for less than half a day, but when he got home...

Only the eggshell remained in the incubator. The baby inside was gone.

His childhood friend's second form was a bird. Thinking of the missing baby, he became crazily fond of birds from then on.

Three years later.

A chubby little bird went "cheep, cheep" and lay flat at his feet.

He was delighted. Because of the egg from years ago, he loved all birds.

Carefully, he carried the chubby little bird home to his bare-walled apartment.

The little bird was incredibly clever. It could even talk.

When it arrived at its new home, the first three things it said to him were, "Make money! Make money! Make money!"

An Yiqing: "..."

-

Ever since Chacha could remember, he had two forms: a human toddler and a chubby little bird that couldn't fly well but could talk.

Every day, Chacha used his chubby-bird form to pretend to be hurt so someone would take him in. He also used his cuteness to support a human toddler.

Everyone said that meant he had raised himself a child bride.

When he was three, Chacha suddenly awakened a special ability. He could sense the pull of his bloodline, and so...

He learned who his two fathers were!

The little chubby bird Chacha's spirits soared, and he decided to investigate his fathers first.

His first father was an Imperial general. His second was an ordinary man living in the old district, with nothing going for him except his good looks.

Neither father even knew he existed!

He thought that if his fathers treated him well, he would reveal who he was and spend their money to raise his child bride. If they treated him badly, he would flap his little wings and keep using his cuteness to support his child bride.

Chacha went to find his general father first. He deliberately bumped into him, fluttered his wings, landed on the ground, and then lay flat.

His general father was so uncooperative that he didn't even pick him up.

Chacha: ...?

His father said in a cold, hard voice, "Take this scam artist to the animal hospital."

Chacha was taken to the animal hospital.

After thinking it over, Chacha flapped his wings and went to find his handsome father, pretending to be hurt in exactly the same way.

His handsome father scooped up the chubby little bird and took him home.

It was a bare-walled apartment!

Chacha looked all around, his bird eyes wide with shock. His father was so poor!

After arriving at his new home, Chacha looked at his handsome father. The first three things he ever said to his real dad were, "Make money! Make money! Make money!"
