This Cat’s Substitute Husband [Matriarchal Society]

This is a recovery project written without an outline, sob sob. Just read it for fun.

Please check out my upcoming novel, Father (Women-Rule-The-World), and add it to your favorites! I swear I'll write something exciting! (Fist pump)

Hello, everyone. My name is Fang Wucai. I'm a cat, and my nickname is Kitty.

My owner and I died in an accident. Before my owner died, they said that good people get good rewards, and we'd go to another world.

I arrived in a new world with two things: a crude portrait and a bottle of mint leaf powder.

Heh, my silly owner bought mint instead of catnip again :D

On the back of the portrait, in chicken scratch, it says: This is proof!

*

On my first day in this world, I vowed to become a good kitty in all four ways!

I saved someone. My owner will praise me, right?

On my third day in this world, I miss my owner so much. A good kitty in all four ways shouldn't be without them...

When is my owner coming to find me?

On my seventh day in this world...

Then I suddenly realized that the person I'd saved looked just like my owner, and just like the person in the portrait. He was holding a bottle of mint leaf powder as he walked toward her.

He opened his mouth and shyly called out, "Wife..."

"What's a wife?"

"Once I become your husband, you'll be my master."

I was overjoyed and asked, "You say I'm your master? Do you know who I am?"

He grew even shyer. "Kitty..."

Me: That's settled! Hahaha, what do you mean, be together? Great, great!

Much later, I stared blankly at the real owner standing in front of me.

I, I... Did this kitty mistake someone else for my owner?

Wei Songran had long been in love with the eldest daughter of the Fang family. One day, he steeled himself and shamelessly called her "wife." He never expected she would actually agree to marry him!

His wife was affectionate with him, cuddling up to him and lavishing him with tender love. Their life together was so sweet it felt like a beautiful dream.

But he never imagined the dream would end so soon.

He watched as a man who looked just like him came to the door, calling out intimately, "Kitty."

Only then did he understand that he was nothing more than a substitute!

Fang Wucai wakes up one morning to find herself locked to the bed?

Wei Songran, his belly slightly rounded, kneels before her:

"This servant deserves to die. I only ask that Your Ladyship not leave me and our child."

"Even if I'm only a substitute."

Fang Wucai is stunned: Men can have kittens too?!

*Notes:

1. The main text is written in third person.

2. Male pregnancy.

3. The female lead is always human. After she transmigrates, there are no fantastical elements.
