That night, at the Ji family’s old mansion.
In the second-to-last room on the third floor, the soft moonlight spilled over the champagne-colored silk duvet. The omega nestled under the covers was so petite and frail that they were almost unnoticeable.
Only a slender, pale foot dangled by the bedside.
Like the blank space in a jade sculpture, it invited endless imagination.
Beneath the delicate skin, fragile blue-green veins were faintly visible, and even the joints glowed with a soft, pale pink hue—clearly a testament to years of pampered living. With just one glance, one couldn’t help but imagine the beauty lying in bed.
Rustle…
The small foot shifted, slowly retreating beneath the covers.
When it emerged again, the wall suddenly bore the fierce silhouette of a large beast, chilling to the bone.
The shadow resembled a tiger or lion, lazily arching its back and stretching with its rear high in the air.
But as soon as the beast leaped off the bed, it collided with an uninvited guest lurking in the darkness. Instantly, it recoiled, unleashing a threatening hiss like a cobra: “Hiss—!”
Who dared invade its territory?!
This intruder looked even bigger than itself—undoubtedly a deadly opponent!
“Hiss!”
“Hiss!”
The beast cursed while lunging forward, its fur bristling all over.
At the same time, its small, round paws with glossy black fur slapped the ground fiercely, producing crisp, sharp sounds. It was so ferocious that even its tiny toes splayed wide open!
As the distance closed rapidly, a white slipper came into view.
“…”
Bathed in the gentle moonlight, stood a fluffy little kitten smaller than the slipper.
The kitten, puffed up like a tiny sea urchin, paused for a moment. The low growl in its throat softened, soon turning into the bubbling sound of a boiling kettle.
—Oh, it was just its own slipper!
Meow meow, meow meow…
As if to mask its embarrassment, the kitten licked its front paw and began washing its face.
The next second, the little brown ball of fur pounced like lightning, delivering an unavoidable fatal blow to the slipper!
A cat would never let anyone predict its next move!
Not even you, my little slipper!
Its rounded mouth, split into three parts, chomped down on the slipper’s edge, its tiny fangs bared menacingly. From its mouth came an indecipherable, buzzing stream of curses.
The kitten wrapped its entire body around the slipper, using its front paws to “lock” the slipper’s “throat” while its hind legs kicked in a furious whirlwind!
“Grrr… buzz…!”
Second strike!
Third strike!
Fourth strike!
The kitten would teach the naughty slipper a lesson, but only to a point—otherwise, there’d be nothing to wear tomorrow.
—One hundred strikes, done!
The plump, fluffy little furball collapsed on the floor, panting. After a moment, it stood up, shook itself off, and calmly ventured into the darkness to begin exploring its unfamiliar new territory.
This was the kitten’s first day as a human.
Originally, it was a lethal little feline hunter on the grasslands, inheriting the best traits from its black-footed cat father and its rusty-spotted leopard cat mother.
It possessed both the ferocity of the black-footed cat and the agility of the rusty-spotted leopard cat.
With a body length of a full twenty centimeters, it would be at least 185 cm in human height—tee-hee!
In local legends,
It was a deadly hunter dwelling in caves, a grassland tyrant that launched nighttime raids across thirty miles, a killing machine that took down prey every fifty minutes on average—and could even hunt giraffes!
So…
While attempting to take on a giraffe solo, the little kitten let out a startled “meow!” and was flung away!
Now, it had transmigrated into the delicate, soft male wife of a wealthy, dog-blooded CEO novel—an omega named Misu, who woke up alone every day on a 500-square-meter bed.
Fortunately, it could freely switch between human and cat forms.
Taking advantage of the night, the cat vigilantly and thoroughly patrolled the entire villa.
Its large, round eyes were like two searchlights, gleaming with yellowish-green reflections, occasionally hissing at unfamiliar objects!
But upon inspection, aside from the sleeping humans, there were no other animals here.
Excellent.
The cat was determined to conquer this place.
As an exceptional hunter, whether it was acting cute or adapting to a new environment, it was no problem at all!
In the vast Ji household late at night, no one noticed the kiwi-like little creature making its rounds before waddling back to the bedroom.
The kitten studied itself in the full-length mirror for a while.
Its appearance hadn’t changed.
It still radiated an aura of domineering majesty.
The soft glow from the floor lamp illuminated the dandelion-like kitten. In the past, it loved admiring itself with a series of meows and purrs—
Its domineering, dark-toned little paws, with pink toe beans!
Its plump, soft primordial pouch, perfect for defending against enemy attacks!
Its elegant, earth-toned streamlined body, ideal for hiding!
It looked and looked, feeling utterly satisfied.
Its tiny whiskers quivered with pride.
With human courage, they probably wouldn’t even dare to look the cat in the eye for more than three seconds, right?
Heh heh meow…
When the kitten’s round little face pressed close to the mirror, it realized its tiny pink tongue had been poking out the whole time. Quickly, it slurped it back in and licked its lips!
Oops.
Forgot about that.
…
“Yeah, just arrived in Central City, fresh off the plane.”
The driver opened the car door, and a tall, imposing alpha slid inside, his handsome face indifferent with a hint of impatience.
He loosened his tie slightly as his mother’s voice came through the phone, offering advice.
“Yanxing, your father and I know you’ve been influenced by Western ideas all these years abroad, always talking about freedom and soul, but leaves return to their roots. You must settle down and build a family here in the Federation.”
“Misu has already moved into our home—that makes him your future spouse!”
“What kind of behavior is it for you to keep avoiding him? Mom’s telling you, you have to meet Misu today. I’ve already asked Old Wu to change the route to the café. Be on your best behavior, and don’t you dare be harsh with him!”
Ji Yanxing tried to say something, but his mother had already hung up.
His parents were so harmonious and loving with each other, yet they arranged a marriage for him. Such a double standard. He hadn’t even met this omega, and he were already living in his family home.
The alpha glared irritably into the rearview mirror. Old Wu met the young master’s icy gaze and flinched, guiltily averting his eyes as he continued driving.
“Mr. Ji, Mrs. Ji said Young Master Mi is already waiting at the café.”
“I… I’ll take you there right away!”
Ji Yanxing let out a cold laugh, his handsome features darkening with displeasure.
“What’s the harm in making him wait a little longer?”
The man rested his chin on one hand, the luxury watch on his wrist gleaming under the light. “A little ‘pride of the family’ from a declining clan—shouldn’t he be waiting for me?”
Old Wu thought to himself how sharp-tongued Mr. Ji was but played dumb. “What’s a ‘pride of the family’?”
Ji Yanxing: “A family that made its fortune in coal mines and real estate, had three alpha daughters and an alpha son, and only managed to have this one omega late in life. How could he possibly be the best match for a spouse?”
By all accounts, Misu was nothing more than a pretty face.
He had been spoiled by his parents since childhood, coddled to the point of being afraid he’d melt if held too tightly.
But despite all that doting, this omega was timid and cowardly, trembling and shedding tears in crowded settings—utterly unfit for serious occasions.
Ji Yanxing had no interest in pampering such a delicate crybaby.
Old Wu: “So you already know about Young Master Misu?”
“Not really,” Ji Yanxing replied, his expression grim.
Given his personal capabilities and family influence, countless people wanted to latch onto him without success. Yet here he was, forced into an arranged marriage. It was laughable.
How was this any different from breeding animals?
Young and arrogant, he already had no goodwill toward his future spouse even before meeting him.
He was afraid that if he spoke too harshly, the person would start sobbing.
Too much trouble.
Misu knew he was supposed to meet his plastic fiancé today. Having grown accustomed to the vast grasslands, the little kitten was full of curiosity about the human world. After being dropped off by the driver at the café entrance, he didn’t go in immediately. Instead, he wandered around the nearby area.
Exploring territory is a cat’s nature.
Nearby was a beautifully landscaped park. Misu’s delicate, fair nose twitched slightly.
The scent of his own kind.
He walked in and saw a human woman shaking a bag. At the rustling sound, several cat heads quickly popped out from the flower beds and bushes!
The cats gathered around her legs, letting out enthusiastic and prolonged cries: “Meow! Meowww—!”
This was the sound of longing.
Misu walked over to her, tilting his head slightly, a hint of confusion on his small face.
He watched as the woman poured tiny, fragrant pellets into a bowl. The stray cats quickly huddled around, burying their heads as they ate eagerly.
Crunch, crunch!
Misu pressed his lips together, saliva beginning to gather in his mouth.
The woman finally noticed the exquisitely beautiful and delicate omega standing nearby. Struck by Misu’s looks and aura, she smoothed her hair and asked with a smile, “Are you here to feed the cats too?”
Misu pointed at the cat food and asked, “What is that?”
Thinking he was joking, she mimicked his cute tone and replied, “They’re kitty beans.”
Misu nodded.
So they were kitty beans.
He used to eat wild rabbits and mice, or small snakes and birds.
After the woman left, Misu glanced around.
The next second, in front of the stray cats, a chocolate-colored fluffball with wide, round eyes appeared, its four short legs planted fiercely apart.
Its black paw pads, like tiny bamboo shoots, weren’t even half the size of the others’.
“Kitty beans. Give them to me.”
The bigger cats exchanged glances, then suddenly burst into raucous meows of laughter, their thick primordial pouches wobbling.
“Kid, how many months old are you? You should go home and drink milk. I could smack you so hard you’d meow in pain with just one paw!”
Soon after, Misu, now full and transformed back into human form, left the park, quietly noting down this delicious food.
The stray cats lay neatly unconscious in the flower beds, legs sticking straight up like turkey drumsticks.
…
Ji Yanxing hadn’t expected the delicate crybaby to dare keep him waiting.
He had already waited for half an hour, his handsome face darkening as if frost could form on it. His sharp gaze was fixed on the entrance like a blade.
Finally, the omega arrived late.
But instead of entering, the person stood outside, idly playing with the decorative brass bell hanging below the sign.
Ji Yanxing: “…?”
From a distance, an alpha on the street spotted the petite beauty standing there, seemingly too frail to open the heavy door. He hurried over, ready to be the hero and save the day, planning to ask for contact information afterward.
But before his hand could reach the door, it was abruptly pulled open from the inside.
Misu stumbled forward unexpectedly, his small hands landing on the man’s firm chest.
The powerful scent of a high-ranking alpha’s pheromones washed over him, carrying a threatening and intimidating aura.
The alpha who had approached turned pale.
Misu lowered his head, his amber caramel-colored eyes briefly shifting into the vertical slits of a cat’s pupils.
—Huh, it’s silver vine.
His teeth felt itchy!
Ji Yanxing looked down with cool indifference, just as Misu lifted his face. For a moment, Ji Yanxing was slightly taken aback.
It was a remarkably pure and innocent face, with moist, clear eyes looking up at him in confusion. A vivid red mole sat on the bridge of his nose, as if designed to tempt others into feeling protective. It made the omega’s delicate nature seem perfectly reasonable.
“Quite the grand entrance. You finally decided to show up.”
Misu asked, “Who are you?”
He answered Misu while looking at the other alpha, his demeanor aloof and cold: “Your husband.”
