The Day My Family Was Slaughtered, the Sinister Director Dragged Me Home

[Cold, ruthless eunuch governor x catlike revenge-seeking girl, both hiding secret identities and exposing each other's, court intrigue + adorable pets + sweet and angsty romance]

On the night her family was slaughtered, Shen Zhiyi opened her eyes in the body of a filthy cat with a broken tail, only to crash straight into the palanquin of Lu Chenzhou, the Eastern Depot's governor.

He pinched the scruff of her neck and sneered. "Filthy thing. You think you're worthy of scratching me?"

She hid her hatred and pretended to be docile, curling up on his lap every day while secretly spying on the chamber where he paid respects to an unmarked memorial tablet. But there, she discovered that this fiend harbored an even deeper sea of blood-feud.

On a stormy night, she took a hidden arrow meant for him and transformed into human form, her sleeve brushing his bloodstained fingertips.

"Miss, you look a lot like a stray cat I keep." He curled his lips, his breath scorching the tip of her ear. "Sharp claws, stubborn temper."

She stepped back, but he locked an arm around her waist. "Why run? Don't you cling to me every day?"

Shen Zhiyi lowered her eyes. "You have mistaken me for someone else, Governor."

"Mistaken?" He chuckled, his jade thumb ring grazing the black mole on her wrist. "I've touched this spot thousands of times already."
