#Rebirth #Raising a Child
Tsundere Cat Bottom x Loyal Puppy Young Master Top
Madam Xia has been plagued by misfortune in recent years. The little cat she'd raised for years passed away of old age. Her husband has been in a coma ever since a car accident. Her newborn baby was snatched by human traffickers. The family has been drowning in debt from paying for her husband's treatment, and when she went to ask her relatives for help, they threw her out. On the verge of a breakdown, she can barely hold on.
Just as Madam Xia is about to swallow pills and kill herself, a three-year-old child shows up at the Xia family gate.
The child is adorable, with a few injuries. In a daze, Madam Xia seems to see the child she has been searching for all these years. Fighting back her grief, she asks if he is lost.
The little one wraps his arms around Madam Xia's leg and nuzzles against it. In a babyish voice, he says, "I've finally found you all!" Then he strolls into the house as if he already belongs there.
Madam Xia wants to stop him, but seeing how pitiful he looks, she gives him something to eat, then helps him bathe and change clothes. She plans to find his parents for him.
But when the little one hears that she wants to send him away, he gets furious. Tears stream down his face, though he can't manage to cry out loud. He shouts, "I've been looking for you for ages! You can't leave me with someone else!" His angry expression is just like that of the cat Madam Xia used to raise.
Later, Madam Xia discovers that ever since the little one came to live with them, her husband has woken up and the family business has grown bigger and bigger. The relatives who used to look down on them are now eager to suck up to them. And the child is the son they searched for so long, as well as the Xia family's little lucky star!
But there are some strange things about him. For example, the child loves eating fish, hisses when he gets angry, keeps saying "I, the cat," and hates being held. His personality is just like that of the cat who passed away.
In his previous life, Ying Li was a little cat raised by Madam Xia. Badly injured, he was taken in by her.
After Ying Li went to Cat Star, he should have been enjoying a comfortable life there. But from the heavens, he saw the Xia family being framed, and Madam Xia losing all will to live and trying to kill herself. He was frantic. When he finally got the chance to be reborn, he discovered that he had become a human child.
Ying Li crossed mountains and rivers and finally found Madam Xia. Happily, he rubbed against her leg, planning to take a little rest. He never expected her to try to drive him away. He was angry, he was heartbroken. He hissed at Madam Xia. "I, the cat, came to repay your kindness! You saved me, so I should be the one to repay you! I'm a lucky cat who brings wealth and good fortune!"
[Romance blurb]
Fu Hechuan is the most precious young master of the Fu family. Raised with a silver spoon in his mouth, he has been a little tyrant since childhood, and no one dares to cross him.
One day, the family's nanny brings her son along. The child has a lovely name, Ying Li, and a pair of round, catlike eyes. Lively and adorable, he somehow makes the young master Fu, who never paid anyone else any attention, surrender at once. He gives Ying Li his most beloved toy.
But Ying Li is aloof and turns away without answering. Young Master Fu assumes he doesn't like the toy, so he immediately lays out every toy in his room for Ying Li to choose from, trying to win him over.
Later, the once-arrogant Fu Hechuan becomes Ying Li's little follower. Everyone knows that picking on Ying Li means picking a fight with him, and he protects Ying Li like his own eyes.
P.S. Action consultant: the family's rebellious kitty.
The story focuses on both family affection and romance. Family affection will take up a little more space in the early part, while romance takes center stage later, after the children grow up.

Shen Shuyang transmigrates into the role of the protagonist's nominal older brother.
In the original story, the protagonist has a tragic background and countless admirers.
Shen Shuyang is one of them, and the most devoted simp of all. But simps never get anything in the end, and his fate is miserable.
To make sure his later years are more comfortable, Shen Shuyang is determined to be a good older brother to the protagonist. He diligently tries to please him every day, but the protagonist never gives him the time of day and despises him.
Shen Shuyang figures that since the protagonist hates having him hover around, he might as well go make himself known to the other members of the protagonist's circle.
That turns out to cause a few problems.
Whenever Shen Shuyang talks to someone else, the protagonist stares at him, but looks away when Shen Shuyang glances back.
Whenever Shen Shuyang gets too close to someone else, the protagonist becomes unusually irritable.
But whenever Shen Shuyang looks only at the protagonist, all the protagonist's problems disappear.
Shen Shuyang thinks the protagonist must have fallen for one of those people, and is just too young and shy to admit it. So he indulges him at every turn and smooths things over for him, only for the protagonist to become even more affectionate toward him.
When the time comes for this simp to follow the plot and enter into a family-arranged marriage, Shen Shuyang readily agrees. He knows that the supporting character in the marriage is in love with the protagonist and will do everything possible to break off the engagement. He just waits for the supporting character to dump him.
Shen Shuyang follows the plot step by step. But on the day of the engagement, the protagonist ties him to the bed, leaving Shen Shuyang drenched in a cold sweat.
Mu Ze, the protagonist and top, pins him down, his breath washing over Shen Shuyang as he asks with a dark gaze, "Brother, you like him? You want to marry him?"
Mu Ze seals Shen Shuyang's lips, leaving him unable to speak. He kisses away the tears in Shen Shuyang's eyes, caresses his cheek, and says intimately, "Brother, you're not going to marry him. I'm going to marry you."
That day, Mu Ze goes mad. He pins Shen Shuyang to the bed and kisses him all over, then sends their intimate photos to the family group chat. The arranged marriage naturally falls apart.
After that, the plot goes completely off the rails. Mu Ze won't let anyone get near Shen Shuyang. His favorite thing is to hold Shen Shuyang while helping him get dressed and eat. He even insists on going to the bathroom together, and most of all, he loves pinning Shen Shuyang down to kiss him.
Mu Ze is handsome and the protagonist, so Shen Shuyang may be getting a great deal. But he can't stand Mu Ze's overwhelming need for control, so he fakes his death and runs away. Years later, he hears that Mu Ze has a fiance and finally dares to return to the place he left.
For a while after he comes back, Mu Ze makes no move. Just when Shen Shuyang thinks their disastrous past is finally over, one morning he wakes up to find someone holding him tightly. Mu Ze is behind him.
Shen Shuyang struggles in terror, only to realize that Mu Ze is holding him and crying.
"Brother, do you really not want me anymore?"
