After the Kitty Took Its Archenemy for Its White Moonlight

Promoting my upcoming novel, Don't Touch My Tail! Pretty Fox x Tsundere Movie Emperor

-

Shen Zhihuai has entered the cat-specific period of magnetic-field disruption, and his memories get mixed up when he takes human form.

In his mistaken understanding, his sworn enemy is the unrequited love of his life.

After spending over a week confirming this, Shen Zhihuai decides to start pursuing him.

Unfortunately, humans and cats don't share the same joys and sorrows. The harder human-form Shen Zhihuai works to win him over, the harder cat-form Shen the Cat tries to talk himself out of it in every way possible.

Shen Zhihuai! He's your nemesis, your nemesis!

Get a grip!!!

Unfortunately, the cat's efforts have little effect.

On an auspicious day, Shen Zhihuai downs a couple of gulps of vodka and confesses to his sworn enemy.

The young man in front of him seems to know what he's about to say. Before Shen Zhihuai can get the first word of his question out, the answer comes first, tinged with amusement.

"I will."

-

The next day, the little cat droops his ears and covers his face with his paws, utterly heartbroken.

He is so distraught he wants to hang himself with a noodle.

Your Honor, what on earth did he do?!

His memory was only scrambled for a few days.

How did he manage to pack himself up and deliver himself to his nemesis overnight?

Shen Zhihuai tries to hold back, but the moment he turns back into a human, he kicks the door open, grabs his nemesis by the collar, and pins him against the railing, demanding furiously:

"Hey! I'm asking you!"

"Why didn't you push me away when I kissed you?"

-

If you want to know how to soothe a furious little cat in one second, Lin Qinyi thinks there should be no one in the world better qualified to answer.

Cats are precious, sensitive creatures, and sometimes they're even a little haughty. If you want to win a cat's favor...

You have to know how to stroke its fur the right way, give it encouragement and praise from time to time, keep things fresh, and always be there whenever it needs you.

Oh, right. Sometimes you may also need to learn how to play the victim and use a few tricks, just like now.

The handsome young man who had been perfectly willing to be pinned against the door a moment ago suddenly curls his lips into a smile.

He wraps one arm around Shen Zhihuai's waist and pulls him into his embrace. As the little cat's beautiful blue-green eyes go wide and his ears turn red, just as he is about to panic and start cursing...

Lin Qinyi leans forward at his leisure and steals a kiss from his lips, taking control of the situation.

Only then does he begin coaxing him in a soft, humble voice:

"Huaihuai, seducing someone and then abandoning them isn't a good habit."

A sweet, slice-of-life story

--Upcoming Novel Blurb--

After a drunken night, Ye Xu, the entertainment industry's famous pretty face, wakes up in the body of Wen Zhou, a top-tier star and movie emperor.

He gets out of bed, sees an unfamiliar face in the mirror, and slowly retreats back onto the bed.

He must still be dreaming. He has to be.

After four hours of catching up on sleep, Ye Xu is woken by his phone ringing.

His sweet dream interrupted, he fishes out his phone and answers irritably.

He is about to speak when a clear, youthful voice comes through the receiver.

"Hello, I'm Wen Zhou."

That wakes Ye Xu right up.

It scares him awake.

After all, hearing your own voice on the phone is no different from running into a ghost on the street.

After a full half-minute of silence, he speaks hoarsely.

"Hello, I'm Ye Xu."

His slightly husky, mellow voice leaves both of them silent for another half-minute.

After awkwardly agreeing on a place to meet later, Ye Xu hangs up, instantly wraps himself in his blanket, and silently wails.

Last night, all he did was run his mouth and say he wanted to be a movie emperor. Why did the heavens take him seriously?

This is the end of me, aaah!

-

Ye Xu thinks that if his soul has crossed over, his tail and ears should have come along, too.

On the night of the full moon, he stays at home, face flushed, ready to transform and enjoy a nice sleep.

The clock strikes twelve. The familiar change never comes. Ye Xu's heart tightens, and he grabs his phone to call Wen Zhou.

The moment the call connects, Ye Xu can't help letting out a muffled groan. The flush spreads down to the roots of his neck.

He can feel someone playing with his tail in their hand.

Who else could it be?!

After a few hurried breaths, Ye Xu bites his lip and warns him fiercely: "D-don't touch my tail!"

-

Wen Zhou has lived a smooth, orderly life for twenty-eight years. It's been pretty dull.

That is, until he transmigrates into the body of a little fox.

Aside from using his acting skills to keep up the little fox's persona, a major part of his daily life now consists of one thing:

Raising a fox.

The little fox is precious.

He's picky about food and clothes, and he likes to say one thing and mean another.

The full moon comes around again. Ye Xu has finally returned to his own body, but he still can't transform completely. Only his ears and tail are exposed.

He says he won't let Wen Zhou touch his tail, but his fluffy tail is wrapped tightly around the man's waist.

The man's slender, well-defined fingers slide all the way to the base of his tail.

Feeling the young man's shiver, Wen Zhou lifts his chin and checks with him.

"Can I touch it?"

"...You can."

Theme: Let everything be as it is, and remember to be brave.
