Liu Jingye transmigrated into a novel as the male supporting character who was supposed to ruin the relationship between the hero and heroine. Luckily, the plot hadn't started yet. Unfortunately, he had nothing to his name and not a penny to his name.

Faced with awful-tasting nutrition drinks and rent that was almost due, he had no choice but to return to his old line of work: food streaming.

With the right ingredients, there's no feast you can't make.

Before long, a hugely popular food streamer appeared on StarNet, and every dish he made sparked intense discussion.

Only a pair of hands and a pet cat ever appeared on camera. The hands were soft and delicate, the cat was as chubby as a pig, and the streamer's voice was gentle and sweet. A wave of viewers began wishing for a streamer just like him as a spouse.

At some point, more and more furry animals started appearing in the streamer's home as his popularity grew: a fluffy Call Duck, a chinchilla that bounced around all day, an adorable Samoyed, a graceful fox, and a hen with her chicks in tow.

You could watch delicious food and enjoy some virtual petting. Who wouldn't love a livestream like that?

Liu Jingye diligently did his job. He was meticulous about food streaming and made sure not to leave out a single furry guest. Soon, he had success in both his career and his personal life.

As his livestream grew more popular, his cat became increasingly picky. Liu Jingye brought the cat to a food show.

Unexpectedly, the cat transformed into a white tiger right there on the show.

Fans: That's the missing general they've been looking for!

Liu Jingye: My cat!!!

The other furry animals: Feeling guilty. Should I transform too?

Alliance General Qiu Congnan was suffering from an uncontrollable mental power outburst and decided to find some corner where he could die in peace.

He never expected to turn into a kitten during the outburst, only to be picked up by an ordinary young man.

He planned to leave the young man's home the next day, but the boy forcibly fed him.

The food he made was not only delicious, but it also soothed Qiu Congnan's mental power.

Qiu Congnan: Delicious.

What could he do? He was just a cat who wanted to eat good food.

The bottom's spirit form is a little soot-black kitten, so the cover wasn't chosen based on that.

Content warning in advance: There will be a little of the original novel's male and female leads, but very little, not even enough to count as a side couple. The original leads won't be vilified.

Here's an upcoming novel, opening on 11/9. Please add it to your favorites!

"A Background Character Becomes the Most Popular on a Furry Dating Show"

Bai Guo was an elite office worker. The day before he had saved up enough money to quit and tell his boss to shove it, he accidentally transmigrated into a book and became a huge rabbit with no money and no official identity.

Bai Guo: "..." Screw this, give me my money back.

Luckily, in this new world, he could still work toward his dream life: work one day, rest five, and slack off all year. To get started, an unscrupulous director casually dragged him into the book's furry dating show, where he would serve as a background character to fill out the cast.

Bai Guo was a beautiful, adorable, fluffy white rabbit with gray-blue eyes and ears. But as the saying went, office workers were just bricks, moved wherever they were needed. The show's schedule was in a bind, so the big white rabbit was sent to the top's team by mistake and ended up trembling among lions, gray wolves, and other carnivores.

When in Rome, do as the Romans do. Unlike the other guests, Bai Guo ate, halfheartedly did his job, and slept, following the same simple routine every day. He was so relaxed that it seemed less like a dating show and more like a retirement program.

There were a few small mishaps, but Bai Guo thought this good life would last until the show ended. He never expected that, starting one day, all the furry animals would stop following the original story and come flocking to cuddle up to him. Even the top-side guests who had treated him as a rival started paying attention to him!

The lion who initially ignored him began holding him in his arms and grooming his fur. The gray wolf who had considered him a rival tore meat into little strips and brought them to his mouth. The adored little cat from the bottom's team circled him every day, while the fennec fox, guinea pig, and others all rushed into Bai Guo's arms to nuzzle him.

Though he felt something was wrong, Bai Guo stuck to his natural office-worker instincts and continued to slack off in peace, wondering every day when he could clock out.

They were just furry animals. It wasn't as if they could force him to work overtime, right?

Until, more than a month later, Bai Guo woke up and discovered that all the furry animals around him had turned into people, and each one was demanding that he make a choice.

After his brain overloaded, Bai Guo said gravely, "It's time for me to clock out."

There was no chance of clocking out. The furry animals in human form kept pestering him day and night, and his miserable 996 work schedule turned into a nightmare 007.

Bai Guo: Help, help!

Theme: Love can carry you through the long years.
