You Know the Cat Gave Me a Golden Finger, Too

I may occasionally fix typos~ [Please add my upcoming novel to your reading list! I have chapters ready and hope to get some support so I can write two novels at once!]

[The ability to communicate with animals came from King Da Wang. Zi Zi was born with yin-yang eyes. The female lead doesn't cultivate or draw talismans; her companions help her use some of her abilities.]

Mu Zi had been able to see ghosts since childhood, but was diagnosed with schizophrenia. After she started taking medication, the hallucinations disappeared.

But when Da Wang, the kitten who had been her only family, passed away, the ghostly visions returned! Mu Zi even began hearing things: she could hear animals talking!

Convinced her condition had worsened, Mu Zi sought medical help. But this time, not only did she fail to get better, the ghosts she used to only see could now interact with her!

They even had a contract signed by her kitten and asked if she liked the gift he had left her.

Mu Zi, trying her best to accept that she had gone crazy because her cat died: Wait, maybe I'm not sick?

The other party was a real ghost, and those voices were gifts from Da Wang! Even her silly, sweet kitten had become a civil servant in the underworld!

Mu Zi: Is this right?

As his owner, Mu Zi felt no pride whatsoever about her kitten passing the civil service exam. She had a vague feeling that the underworld was a pretty shady place.

For starters, how could a cat become a civil servant?

And how could ghosts really go to a cat to fulfill their lingering wishes?

She suspected these ghosts and the underworld were setting up her silly, sweet kitten. First came the Great Sage Who Balanced the Books, and now there's Da Wang, the fall guy!

So, to keep her kitty from getting caught with anything they could use against him, Mu Zi carefully and beautifully completed the contracts.

But...

Were these ghosts shameless or what?

One got sent off, then another!

Before one was gone, there was already a new one!

Why did every last one of them have to deceive her silly, sweet kitten?

Coming next:

Even after finding out she was the female supporting character meant to contrast with the heroine, Ye Lin, as an excellent person, never felt nervous.

That was until the ceiling of her room cracked and a child fell through.

He called himself the Demon King. He was covered in wounds and painfully thin.

For the first time in her life, Ye Lin had a problem: how to become a good mother.

Xing Xing was a very good child.

When he noticed Ye Lin getting up early every day to make breakfast, he wanted to help.

Ye Lin: Now the ceiling gets to eat raw eggs, too.

When he saw how tired Ye Lin was from tending the garden, he tried to help feed the fish.

Ye Lin: The poor fish died so horribly...

The child wanted to help because he loved her, and Ye Lin thought that was wonderful. The only problem was that he cared a lot about whether she needed him.

Ye Lin: Needed? Oh, she's great at that!

And so the young Xing Xing got a taste of sweet-talking.

"Xing Xing, all the other moms get to hug their babies. Could I have a hug too? But I don't want to pressure you, even though I'll be sad if you say no~"

Xing Xing frowned sternly and lectured his mother with utmost seriousness. "You shouldn't compare yourself to others."

Ye Lin was disappointed that her son had such strong immunity to her sweet talk, but then she realized a skinny little boy had appeared in her arms.

She suddenly understood: So he's just tsundere!

Ye Lin immediately went all in on her sweet-talking-mom routine!

"Xing Xing, all the other moms have pictures with their babies, and I'd like one too..."

"Being greedy is bad." Even as he said this, Ye Lin got a photo with her sour-faced baby.

"Xing Xing, I see other moms getting kisses from their babies, but I don't get anything. Boohoo!"

"Being clingy is bad." As he said it, he gave Ye Lin a quick kiss on the cheek!

So absorbed in raising her little one, Ye Lin completely forgot about the plot, until the heroine, whose scandals had just been exposed, retaliated by buying the top spot on the trending list for the news that Ye Lin had given birth out of wedlock.

Just like in the original plot, Ye Lin ended up appearing on the same variety show as the heroine. She had braced herself to be criticized, but instead won over a wave of sympathy.

The viewers thought that little Xing Xing was cute, but that he looked like he could knock Ye Lin flat in a heartbeat.

Ye Lin: Nice. You have to hand it to these fickle netizens for knowing just what to say.

Ye Lin didn't care what the viewers thought. Lately, her main worry was her neighbor, who seemed like he might be a hater.

He was making his presence felt a little too much, giving Ye Lin one of the three great illusions of life: He likes me.

Everyone in their circle knew that President Xie had a white moonlight. He had loved her carefully and fruitlessly since high school.

Rumor had it that his white moonlight had recently had a child, and he was drowning his sorrows in drink.

For many people, this was undoubtedly a great opportunity.

But before the eager contenders could make a move, word suddenly spread that President Xie was telling everyone, "I feel like I was born to be a stepdad."
