[Feisty Cat Lady × Stoic, Clumsy Dog]

1.

After transmigrating into a book, Xu Kexia discovered she had become the villain.

The book was about how the male lead went from a pitiful boy who was bullied to the head of a powerful family.

In the original story, the villain repeatedly bullied the male lead at school. After graduation, she kept tripping him up, directly causing him to become gloomy and cold, filled with hatred for the world. In the end, the male lead rose to power, while the villain got what she deserved: she died disgraced, with everyone cursing her.

Xu Kexia: ...?

After a thrilling first day in this new world, Xu Kexia and the System resolutely decided:

Cherish life and stay away from the male lead.

But even when she turned and ran the moment she saw him, she still ended up being blamed for bullying him.

System: That's just how the plot goes. The villain can't escape it.

Xu Kexia: “...”

While trying to dodge a major plot point, Xu Kexia still couldn't avoid seeing someone pick on the male lead at a party.

Dressed in a white shirt, the male lead stood alone and helpless, his slender figure frozen in place. Then he looked at her, lost and bewildered.

Xu Kexia: (Pretends not to see)

She chose to turn a blind eye, opened the door, and started to leave.

But the very next moment, she turned around and grabbed the male lead by the wrist.

Then, under the astonished gaze of everyone present, she led him out.

The System stared at their clasped hands: ...?

Xu Kexia: It's his fault for looking at me (gritting her teeth)

2.

Xu Kexia decided to give up trying and follow her heart. After all, being a villainous young lady wasn't that hard (?).

One day, Yi Li failed to show up at the time they'd arranged to meet. Xu Kexia waited patiently until he finally arrived, then gave him a chilly look and kicked him.

But he crouched down and took hold of her lower leg.

Yi Li's hand circled Xu Kexia's ankle. He removed the impossibly high heels she almost never wore, then stood up.

“Get on. I'll carry you home.”

“Who wants you to carry them? You can't keep your promises, you idiot.”

Yi Li lowered his eyes and let her scold and hit him. Gently, he draped his jacket over her shoulders. “Put this on first. It's cold tonight.”

Xu Kexia: “...”

With a stiff little face, she put on the jacket, looking as haughty as if Yi Li owed her eight million. Still, she obediently climbed onto his back.

By the end, Xu Kexia was nearly asleep, still mumbling that he was a stupid dog.

Yi Li stopped under the streetlight and looked at their intertwined shadows. Boldly, he rubbed his cheek against Xu Kexia's twice.

“Mm. I'm a stupid dog.”

He paused. The words that followed slowly melted into the hazy night.

“So never leave me behind.”

★ As usual, both leads are each other's first and only.

★ The heroine is adored by everyone, but doesn't realize it.

★ The heroine doesn't bully anyone. She only thinks she's following the villain's path, and she can't fight either. She just likes putting on a fierce front.

★ New novel now underway ★

The Right Way to Fight Monsters in an Interstellar Prison. Please add it to your reading list~

Wen Yuan opened her eyes and found herself standing in front of a gigantic black building.

The structure was so vast she couldn't see its top. It blended into the black sky, and dense red lights flashed from time to time in the darkness, like a vicious beast lying in wait.

Behind her was a murky expanse. When she turned around, she saw black mist billowing all the way to the horizon.

Wen Yuan entered the building. A huge, unfamiliar beast, pure white from head to toe, lunged at her. It stood before her, lowered its enormous head, and roared at the girl, its bellow deafening.

Wen Yuan coolly looked up into its eyes. The beast hesitated for a moment, then opened its jaws wide as if it meant to swallow her whole.

The girl stood perfectly still, as if paralyzed with fright. In an instant, someone appeared and sharply rebuked the beast.

The beast gradually shrank until it became a soft, docile white kitten. It rubbed against the person's feet.

The person looked apologetic and spoke gently. “Sorry about that. It didn't get enough to eat at lunch.”

The fourth eye on the person's face slowly blinked. The girl paid it no attention and continued farther into the building.

A one-eyed human, an unknown creature with seven claws, and a green plant that could make the sounds of a child all passed before her, one after another.

Wen Yuan stood there with a blank expression. After a while, she finally followed the directions to the first room.

She knocked. Three seconds later, the door slowly opened.

The person inside sat at a desk, holding up a newspaper to cover their face. They spoke lazily toward the open door. “Lost and found is next door.”

Wen Yuan: “...”

Hearing no response, the person peeked over the newspaper.

Their eyes met. The person slowly smiled, speaking in a teasing tone. “Well, well. A new arrival?”

Prison Ten is the darkest place in the entire interstellar world.

It never sees daylight, and its atmosphere is saturated with darkness. It houses every vicious monster in the galaxy.

A hundred years ago, monsters escaped from Prison Ten. The prison's administrator sacrificed all their life force to imprison the monsters in a parallel dimension within the prison.

To capture monsters in the various parallel dimensions, Prison Ten began recruiting ability users from the outside world.

Then, one day, a girl from who-knows-where stepped through the gates of Prison Ten.

The story began again.
