Yu Zhuo picked up a little black kitty. It was so black that all you could see were its pair of emerald-green eyes.

The kitty kept growing bigger and bigger. In the sunlight, faint leopard spots showed through its fur.

Yu Zhuo looked it up online.

So it was a leopard cat. Nothing to worry about.

The kitty kept growing bigger and bigger and bigger...

Yu Zhuo looked at the black figure lying on the ground, now as long as a person.

"Are you sure you're a cat?"

The kitty looked back at her with its green eyes, then let out a cute little sound: "Mew?"

The doctor suspected the kitty had an identity disorder. It was clearly a black panther, yet it meowed all day long.

Yu Zhuo accepted it. After all, keeping panthers as pets was legal in the interstellar era.

Until one day, someone came knocking.

"Here's ten million as compensation for taking care of it. The cat you found is a secret project from our research institute."

The visitor showed her the paperwork. Everything was legal and aboveboard.

The proof was right there in black and white, so Yu Zhuo returned the cat.

The next day, when she opened the door, a handsome man with fluffy black ears was curled up outside her home.

His eyes were red as he reached out to hug Yu Zhuo. "I don't want to leave..."

Reader's Guide:

1. Sweet boy-girl romance.

2. Both leads are sexually inexperienced and exclusive.

3. The male lead cries easily.

Upcoming story: "A Natural Airhead Gets Tangled Up with a Dark, Obsessive Man"

Unbothered airhead x deceptive, dark-hearted ghost of a man

Ying Wuyou has been a slow thinker since childhood.

When Xu Feiyin first met Ying Wuyou, she spoke sincerely and slowly.

"I don't think you did anything wrong, but so many people were yelling at you just now that I didn't dare speak up."

Xu Feiyin, who hadn't thought much of it, broke into a big smile. "I really was terrified."

The next time Ying Wuyou knew it, Xu Feiyin had become her neighbor.

"What a coincidence, Mr. Xu."

A subtle curve touched Xu Feiyin's lips. "I look forward to getting along with you."

-

Once, Ying Wuyou lost her house key and had a new one made. Knowing she was prone to losing things, she left a spare key with the trustworthy Mr. Xu.

He twirled the key between his long fingers. "Aren't you worried I'll do something bad?"

"Even if you wanted to trick me, Mr. Xu, you'd probably just secretly pick the strawberries on my balcony."

She's just a slow thinker, but she has good instincts. She can tell whether someone might hurt her.

Xu Feiyin gave her his usual gentle smile, his smiling eyes fixed on the key in his hand.

He hoped he wouldn't betray her trust.

A month later, Ying Wuyou occasionally felt that something in her home was a little off.

For instance...

The ripest strawberry in the flowerpot on her balcony was gone.

Ying Wuyou fell into thought. It must have been her pet turtle.

-

Little by little, Ying Wuyou developed a fondness for Mr. Xu next door.

He had a lovely smile and was considerate and gentle. Whenever trouble came up in her life, Mr. Xu took care of it.

Besides, they seemed to be destined for each other. Wherever she went, she would run into Mr. Xu.

[I think I might like Mr. Xu.]

That's what she wrote in her diary.

The next day, as if by telepathy, Mr. Xu confessed his feelings to her.

-

"From the moment Xu Feiyin moved in next door, he had every step planned out."

Ying Wuyou was slow to react to begin with, and this time she was silent for a full three minutes.

"...Wow, so Mr. Xu has liked me for that long."
