One minute before the smart curtains automatically opened—
The little kitten bun curled up on Ji Yanxing’s chest moved slightly, slowly waking up. It was as if someone had grabbed its little paws and stretched them out to both sides like pulled noodles, squinting its eyes, a pink little tongue tip sticking out a bit.
Another day for the Grassland Overlord begins.
The cat let out a soft, sweet, and somewhat high-pitched “yow” sound.
Activation successful!
Welcome to watch a one-year-old disciplined kitten’s day! owo
Whether domestic or wild, cats have their own daily routines. Little Mi Su was no exception. The first thing after waking up was his morning exercise and scratching session.
Unfortunately, there was no scratching post in Ji Yanxing’s room. It was excessively clean. The cat looked around disdainfully with an aloof gaze.
So, with a twist of its bottom, it burrowed into the alpha’s quilt.
The Sea Urchin Prince’s legs are the best to scratch anyway, meow!
Especially since the quilt was a small, warm, enclosed space, still emitting the gentle scent of actinidia polygama (Silver vine). This excited the mischievous little fellow even more. It quickly crawled along the man’s sturdy body, heading straight for the lower half.
Before long, its little head bumped into a hard, unidentified object.
“Meow?”
The kitten pushed against it in confusion, finding this strange, somewhat resilient thing actually wouldn’t budge. How unreasonable!
Sharp little claws were unsheathed.
Let’s have a final showdown, big guy!
“…Mmm.”
The alpha in his sleep was startled awake by a sudden sharp pain, letting out a low, hoarse groan as he threw back the covers. He saw the palm-sized kitten waving its two little black paws, hopping left and right to attack Little Ji Yanxing.
That posture, it seemed determined to end the Ji family line right then and there.
Ji Yanxing was slightly annoyed. “What are you doing?”
Seeing him awake, Little Mi Su widened his amber eyes, immediately rubbing his cheek against the man’s leg, letting out a loud, plaintive meow.
Human, you’re finally awake!
This thing of yours is a bit strange, different from a cat’s. The cat is helping you get rid of it!
Ji Yanxing’s large hand scooped up the little meatball. “This isn’t a cat teaser.”
Thinking of something, the alpha chuckled mysteriously early in the morning, smiling as he tapped the kitten’s damp, pink nose with his fingertip.
“This is for giving you little brothers and sisters. If it breaks, someone will cry.”
The kitten tilted its head in confusion. “Meep?”
Luckily, the Earth is round. If the Earth were flat, all things would be swatted off by cats.
Ji Yanxing also noted the little one’s astonishing energy. After changing into workout clothes, he took the kitten out for exercise.
The cool morning breeze was refreshing. Man and cat jogged along the spacious villa district.
It had been a long time since he could run freely outside. The little furball charged ahead with tiger-like ferocity, mobilizing every bit of plump, adorable flesh, even using airplane ears to reduce wind resistance.
“Meow!” So good!
Ji Yanxing deliberately slowed his pace, indulging the kitten to run ahead of him.
Just to watch the kitten turn back, urging him on with smug, crisp meows.
“Already doing great.” Halfway through, the alpha scooped up the slightly tired little one, his voice deep and comforting. “Stay with Dad a bit longer, then we’ll go home.”
Having played too wildly, the chocolate daifuku panted with its little pink mouth open, huffing like a puppy.
Hearing a certain term of address, the kitten’s tone rose in surprise. “Meeeow~?”
Rascal!
Daring to claim to be the cat’s elder.
Its little paws tried desperately to throw a few hooks, but unfortunately, the entire cat was held in his hand, only managing to ferociously flail about.
Ji Yanxing: “Don’t like that term? How about ‘daddy’ then?”
“…” The cat wasn’t that internationalized yet and didn’t understand, reluctantly agreeing. “Meep.”
Seizing the moment, Ji Yanxing lifted the kitten, coaxing, “Daddy will take you flying. Is the wind cool?”
The little puffball squinted its eyes, enjoying the wind against its face, its little paws resting on the back of his hand, feeling the joy of riding in a convertible sports car.
The Sea Urchin Prince is truly all-purpose, meow.
Not only can he stand guard, provide food, but he can also be Mi’s personal vehicle!
Next time, try standing on his head to patrol the territory, meow.
Mrs. Ji stood on the balcony, swirling her beauty tea, pushing up her glasses. “Old Ji, your son is getting more and more eccentric, running around holding a piece of ‘bread’ early in the morning. You should talk to him.”
“Huh?” Director Ji continued reading the newspaper. “He must really be hungry.”
Suddenly, during breakfast without the delicate little thing sitting beside him, Ji Yanxing truly felt unaccustomed. He lifted his eyelids to glance at the kitten sitting in Mi Su’s spot.
The little fellow opened its small mouth with all its might, taking a bite like a front-end loader.
“Woof-woof woof…”
Ran too hard, cat almost starved to death, woof!
Ji Yanxing wiped the cat’s mouth.
He inexplicably felt a faint sadness of having to work hard to raise a child even after his wife ran off.
The kitten was completely unaware of his inner turmoil, only hearing him speak in a detached tone about “not abandoning us,” “just went back to his parents’ home,” “a man should focus on his career.”
Then, a large hand with distinct knuckles lifted the cat’s tail.
“—!”
The kitten was so startled its whiskers drooped. Turning its head in terror, it saw Ji Yanxing examining the cat’s jewels.
He commented, “Hmm, it’s a little boy.”
The cat’s gaze sharpened, looking very angry. The Sea Urchin Prince had overstepped and must be severely punished.
Its cat paws whirled into a little tornado, landing direct thumps—bang, bang, bang!
The butler set down the freshly squeezed juice with a smile, like an NPC triggering a passive skill, finally finding the chance to say that long-desired line—
Joyfully: “Haven’t seen the young master get hit in such a long time.”
…..
The little kitten wasn’t Ji Yanxing’s, after all. To cherish their limited time together, he specifically brought the cat to the group headquarters to accompany him to work.
Simultaneously, he ignored all the resentful “debt-collecting” messages Xiao Yu sent him.
“President Ji—”
Assistant Wu, standing at the company entrance, hadn’t even finished his greeting when he saw his usually stern, dignified, and noble boss. Today, his impeccably ironed suit pocket was bulging.
With a soft pop, a kitten head popped out.
Assistant Wu rubbed his eyes, almost thinking he was seeing things. “…Good morning, President Ji.”
“Meep.”
Two little black paws rested on the edge. The kitten nodded proudly.
Good morning to you too, meow.
But I’m President Mi, you can also call me President Meep.
Ji Yanxing never explained. His icy gaze swept over, slightly impatient.
Assistant Wu immediately began his daily report as they walked.
Employees passing by also noticed the kitten, initially thinking the aloof President Ji had suddenly been overcome with a boyish heart, wearing a little accessory. That was until the kitten’s upper body leaned out, generously greeting one person with a “meow” and another with two “meows.”
“Hello there, human!”
“Hello to you too—!”
Full of enthusiasm and vitality.
Employees: “!!!”
It’s… it’s alive! So cute!
Ji Yanxing clearly felt more people greeting him than usual. Normally, they’d shrink into quails at a glance, trembling with fear. Today, everyone was all smiles—
Only, they were aimed at the cat in his pocket.
The alpha lowered his gaze, a slight curve lifting the corner of his thin lips. He poked the round little head with his fingertip, his tone carrying a proud sense of his child being impressive, yet his heart felt a bit sour and jealous. “So friendly with everyone? You little stinker.”
The kitten bit his finger in retaliation, giving him a light lesson.
You’re the stinky one.
The cat licks itself clean for a long time every day.
Ji Yanxing took the cat upstairs to the CEO’s office. “How’s Daddy’s workplace?”
The chocolate puffball stepped onto the grand office desk, its little tail erect like an antenna, sniffing around.
It let out an appreciative “meow.”
Little Mi Su hadn’t expected so many people to be so deferential to the Sea Urchin Prince, and his workplace was this big.
Much bigger than the cat café.
The little fellow slowed its pace with an air of pride, leisurely patrolling the area. “Oh, quite impressive. But still a bit lacking compared to my vast grasslands. Needs more effort, meow.”
