Xu Ning is an overworked office drone.
If he weren't being dangled a salary of 100,000 a month to keep him working until he could retire at thirty and enjoy life, this ultimate slacker, who thinks "living is fine, but dying would be fine too," would say goodbye to the world in a heartbeat.
His utterly ordinary life finally changed when he adopted a little octopus.
On a company trip to the seaside, his coworkers spotted a little octopus with beautiful, eerie patterns on its body.
Everyone thought it was poisonous and wanted to throw it back into the sea. But the little octopus slowly stretched out its tentacles and wrapped them around his ankle.
His coworkers panicked and were already trying to kill the little octopus.
Xu Ning, however, thought they were meant to be and announced that he was adopting it.
Coworkers: Are you crazy? Aren't you afraid it's poisonous?
Holding the box with the little octopus inside, Xu Ning replied calmly, "It just touched me, and I'm fine, so it isn't poisonous. But if it accidentally dies later, please turn it into takoyaki and bury me with it."
Coworkers: After all these years, we still can't get used to his weird mental state.

As it turned out, the little octopus wasn't poisonous. It was also incredibly smart, almost smart enough to be Xu Ning's friend.
Every day, Xu Ning watched his pet Xiao Zhang chasing his reflection around the fish tank and felt that he finally had a reason to live beyond his paycheck.
Faced with Xiao Zhang's constant attempts to cling to him, Xu Ning let it do as it pleased.
Whenever the two of them were together, the brightly patterned little octopus would either wrap itself around Xu Ning's slender wrist or cling to his thin neck, like a brilliant flower growing parasitically from his body.
Gradually, Xu Ning noticed a few things that didn't seem right. For instance, the little octopus had grown into a big octopus. And his octopus was actually a conscious marine creature.
With his completely unconventional way of thinking, Xu Ning wasn't afraid at all. In fact, he was really looking forward to Xiao Zhang taking human form.
That way, they could go to work together, and Xiao Zhang could work for him.
Xu Ning was delighted: one step closer to retirement.
Xiao Zhang could take human form, but it needed all kinds of contact with its owner, Xu Ning, including but not limited to caresses, kisses, and bodily fluids of every kind.
Xu Ning blushed.
Xiao Zhang looked forward to it.
Xu Ning nodded in agreement.
Xiao Zhang immediately wrapped Xu Ning up and called him "wife" as it snuggled against him.
Xu Ning: Anything for an early retirement.

Xu Ning thought it would be great. He figured that a few caresses and cuddles would get him an octopus employee.
But after being wrapped up by the octopus and teased until he was dizzy, he finally realized he'd been tricked.
Xu Ning struggled, but couldn't get free, so he simply gave up and let Xiao Zhang have its way with him.
It was his octopus, after all. There was nothing wrong with fooling around a little.
But octopuses are excellent at disguise. Each of its eight tentacles had a secondary brain, and with its main brain too, Xiao Zhang had nine different faces and nine...
After Xu Ning let Xiao Zhang have its way with him, he ended up blindfolded, his body wrapped in tentacles, and forced to guess which husband he was with that night based on subtle differences.
[Tips]
1. An intelligent nonhuman being x an office drone with a wildly unconventional mind
2. 1v1, both leads' first time
3. Everything that happens is consensual couple's play.
4. The octopus is absolutely devoted to Xu Ning. It's an octopus that would die without its wife.
5. The love interest has nine bodies. He's a split-body love interest, but they're all one person.
