I’ve Opened a Monster Daycare!!

A workaholic but emotionally oblivious heroine and a sentimental big-cat hero who shamelessly acts cute.

My next completed novel, I Work as the Property Manager in a Monster Community, is finished. Next up: Quiet, My Child's Stepfather Is Here. Please follow me.

Blurb One

Jiang Chuyue, a postgraduate in early childhood education, graduates straight into unemployment.

After staying home for two months, she suddenly receives a strange job offer: Dear Ms. Jiang, congratulations! You have been hired as the principal of a monster kindergarten, with a monthly salary of fifty thousand (in a currency of your choice). Performance bonuses are paid separately, calculated as follows...

Fifty thousand!

Jiang Chuyue slams the table, immediately packs her things, and decides to go see for herself (and get right to work).

Then she discovers that the kindergarten is indeed legitimate, safe, and well-paid. It just has a garden but no children. Her only coworker is handsome, but always wears a sour expression and makes unreasonable demands: he only wants to work as a security guard.

For the sake of all those fifty-thousand paychecks, Jiang Chuyue appeals to her coworker's better nature and reason, then drags him headlong into a whole series of tasks, from enrollment and teaching to inspections.

The monster kindergarten flourishes more and more, but the handsome coworker's gaze toward her is starting to look less and less innocent...

At first, He Nian thought he would slack off forever. Also, the new human was really talkative.

Gradually, as he worked, he began to think she was a little bit magical. It wasn't just the little monsters who were drawn to her; sometimes even his own gaze would be pulled toward her despite himself.

Later, he could only seethe in the dead of night. He hated that Jiang Chuyue was such a block of wood!

He'd only just escaped the misery of being forced into a new line of work, and now he'd plunged straight into the agony of a crush. To make matters worse, his crush was only clever when she was working. The moment she stepped away from work, she noticed nothing at all.

Sigh! Life as a monster is hard. Who knows when He Nian will finally see the moon?

A Short Scene

He Nian: "You have no idea how hard I worked to pass the monster civil service exam. They can't just transfer me to another job, sob..."

Jiang Chuyue smacks his thigh (because hitting her own hurts). "I know! How could I not? Do you think getting into a graduate program in early childhood education is easy? I worked my butt off to get in, and still nearly ended up unemployed, sob..."

And so they hug each other and cry, completely beside themselves.

Upcoming: Quiet, My Child's Stepfather Is Here

Blurb One

Sui Ran, twenty-eight, divorced with a daughter, has an associate degree and drives a bus. Her only advantage is that she's beautiful, and that beauty happens to be one of the main reasons her life turned tragic.

She's getting married again.

Her fiancé, Zhong Yi, is twenty-five, never married, and she was his first love and his first time. He has a PhD, is about to take a teaching position at his university, and is devastatingly handsome.

Her friends say Sui Ran seems to have stumbled into a romance scam and urge her to come to her senses.

Sui Ran thinks they're making a fuss over nothing. "We've known each other for ages. He's had a crush on me for more than ten years."

Her friend tries to say more, but Sui Ran puts a finger to her lips. "Shh, quiet. My child's stepfather is here."

Sui Ran once felt inferior and was afraid to speak because this relationship seemed so mismatched.

Later, she was still afraid to speak, because she worried that the moment she opened her mouth, she'd burst out laughing.

Zhong Yi's friends also think something must be wrong with him.

Everyone has to admit that Sui Ran is very beautiful. She's cheerful and lively, and true to her name, she makes people feel as if they're basking in a warm spring breeze.

But to outsiders, the two of them are simply too mismatched.

Zhong Yi only replies with three words: "You wouldn't understand."

His life had gone smoothly for over twenty years. He only ever made one terrible mistake: letting her slip away.

Out of fear, Sui Ran first stepped into his world. And out of fear, he failed to confess his feelings in time.

She was the girl he'd secretly loved since he was a teenager, and now that he was in his twenties, that love hadn't changed for a second.

He didn't dare attend her wedding, visit her when she was fighting for her life giving birth, or ask about the happy life of her family of three.

He sincerely hoped Sui Ran would have a happy life. He never imagined he would meet her again, let alone that she would be divorced.

A gift from heaven.

He had become brave, and nothing in the world could stop him now.
