“Hey, our Chairwoman Luo Ke, are you here yet? We’ve been waiting for you for half a day.”

 

“I’m here now.”

  

A cold voice was emitted from both the phone and near the shop door at the same time. Bai Xingrui raised her head and observed the newcomer from head to toe, sighing in disappointment.

  

“And you’re still in your black suit. You don’t no need to be so serious, after all, you’re only twenty-three.” Bai Xingrui lamented, stretching out her long legs, which were in black silky tights, while her red short skirt hugged her hips, outlining her curvaceous body.

  

Luo Ke didn’t even bother to look at her as she sat at the bar and raised her hand, signalling for a drink.

 

“Why did you ask me out?”

 

“Can’t I hang out with you for no reason?” Bai Xingrui made a pouting expression, her lips protruding cutely, and braced her chin preposterously, blinking her big eyes at Luo Ke. However, when she received Luo Ke’s death glare, Bai Xingrui coughed twice and sat upright.

 

“It’s your birthday today, so I’ve prepared a special present for you.”

 

Luo Ke took a sip from her glass and watched as Bai Xingrui held out a large box with a cloth over it. She frowned. That big of a present?

  

Bai Xingrui happily unrolled the black cloth, “Ta-da!”

  

Luo Ke took a cursory glance at the weak kitten in the cage, barely able to mewl.

  

She deadpanned, “The cat is nearly dead because of you.”

  

Bai Xingrui, shocked, hurriedly lifted the carrier, but the kitten inside didn’t move at all. Its eyes were nearly closed.

 

She stretched out her finger to poke the kitten, then cursed, pushed the cage onto the counter, and pulled out her cell phone to find the cat seller to settle this slight.

  

Luo Ke scanned the cat’s corpse, her gaze lingering on its closed eyes for two seconds, before she looked away.

  

“Meow-” the faint sound of a cat’s mewl rang out.

  

Luo Ke, slightly surprised, looked at it again. The kitten opened her eyes as well to look at her, amber pupils gleaming in the bar’s light.

 

Human and cat both froze, and Luo Ke watched the cat, who had just been weak, instantly jump up, letting out a miserable yowl, her entire back arching and crashing backwards into the cage.

  

Bai Xingrui was still fighting with the cat seller on her phone and didn’t notice them. Luo Ke turned her head and hooked her calves with her high heel toes. Bai Xingrui turned back a second later.

  

Luo Ke pointed at the cat in the cage, “Hurry up and take your cat away.”

  

Bai Xingrui leaned over, and upon seeing that the cat in the cage was still alive, looked at Luo Ke, picked up her bag, and ran, “I have delivered your birthday gift so it’s now yours, bye bye~”

 

Luo Ke reached out but failed to catch her. After sighing exasperatedly, she tilted her head back to finish her drink and leave.

  

A gentleman in a white shirt next to her saw and handed her a glass, “Miss, may I buy you a drink?”

  

Luo Ke completely ignored him, took the cage, and went out.

  

She pulled her car’s door open, tossing the cage to the passenger side of the car. The kitten inside had stopped mewling and was lying in the cage, shivering, looking at her with big, timid eyes.

  

“How troublesome.” Luo Ke spat out two words and started the car.

 

Lin Sifei, crouched in her cage, hadn’t come back to her senses. She looked down at her paw incredulously. It really was a cat’s paw.

  

She was a triple award winning movie queen, having millions of fans and hundreds millions in money… and she was currently a kitten.

  

Lin Sifei crouched low, trying to fight off her headache. In the bar, when she suddenly saw a group of giants, she was almost scared to death, and now she couldn’t stop shaking.

 

She tried to calm her brain. She had just been given as a birthday present to the woman in front of her. And she didn’t have the hunting ability of a stray cat, so being a house cat was the best option for her.

 

She scanned the woman driving next to her, with her cold eyebrows, slightly taut lips and thin face, she looked very badass. And she was very keen to keep to herself, as shown when they were at the bar.

  

Her head throbbed again, and she curled up, trying to ease the pain.

 

Luo Ke, Luo Ke–

  

Lin Sifei recalled the name in her mind, her brow furrowing. The name was somewhat familiar, and she blurry remembered that the name of another woman in a red dress was… Bai Xingrui.

 

Lin Sifei opened her eyes hurriedly, wasn’t this the novel she had read before? The film and television industry was becoming more difficult, and although she was a triple movie queen, her company still wanted her to star in a drama. She picked out one she liked, and then went back to check out the original source, and found out that the script had altered a lot of stuff, since the original novel was no good at all.

  

And then… She died in a car accident on the way to the office. 

  

Lying in her cage, Lin Sifei tried to keep her eyelids from drooping, thinking, how unfortunate for me, my cheap parents got all of my property. 

  

She was sad for around three minutes, and then the car stopped and Luo Ke picked up the cage and got out.

 

She was still not used to seeing a big human and stepped back in fear.

  

The way Luo Ke carried the cage wasn’t gentle at all, since Lin Sifei felt like she was on a pirate ship the whole time, dizzily rocking in air. 

  

It was already dark. Lin Sifei’s cat ears moved, since after she became a cat, her hearing was much more sensitive, so much so that she thought she heard the sound of mosquitoes in the grass. She shrank her legs and made herself even smaller in the cage

  

Luo Ke put the cage in the living room, opened the door, and turned around to take a shower and go to bed.

 

Lin Sifei waited for her to leave and jumped out of the cage. She looked around on the first floor and found a dressing mirror. She pressed both paws out on the mirror. A young cat was reflected. 

  

Lin Sifei craned her head and twisted her head to look at her now cat-body and had to accept the fact that after all these years of being a human, and now she started over as a cat.

  

She looked up at the light on the second floor, becoming even more desperate. Even more, she was the villainess’ cat, and if the villainess went bankrupt later, she would have to become a stray cat.

  

Lin Sifei calmed herself down and was pacing back and forth in the living room. No, she absolutely could not become a stray cat. She remembered that in the book, it was written that the heroine and the villainess had a feud because she was bullied for a long time in the villainess’ company, where she had always worked. Her “boyfriends” all wanted to monopolize the heroine, so naturally they bankrupted the villainess’s company to woo the original heroine of the story. 

 

Lin Sifei sighed. What a disaster that heaven subjected her to. So maybe…as long as the heroine was fired when she first entered the company, then according to her stubborn nature, she wouldn’t enter any other company under the Luo Family Corporation, and then at the end, if her villainess owner could admit that she done the heroine wrong and just apologize, everything could be solved. 

  

Lin Sifei sat on the floor and squinted her eyes. Suddenly her stomach rumbled, and when she lifted her paw to press it, making even more noise.

  

The villainess hadn’t given her dinner. Welp. Before anything happened, she was going to starve to death.

  

Lin Sifei climbed up with great difficulty and made her way to the kitchen. There was definitely food there.

 

However, Luo Ke’s kitchen was clean, and the drawers and refrigerator were not something she could open as a kitten.

  

Lin Sifei collapsed on the kitchen floor, wanting to cry.

  

“Tap- tap-Tap-”

  

Lin Sifei’s ears moved and looked back. Luo Ke, who was wearing a silk nightgown with a towel on her head, stood behind her.

 

When Luo Ke saw the cat lying near the refrigerator she sighed, “You looked for food in the wrong place.”

 

She lifted her foot over the cat and crouched down to take a bag of cat food out of the cupboard, pouring it into the cat bowl, softening it with water and placing it next to the cat’s mouth.

 

“Eat.”

  

Lin Sifei moved her nose and smelled a savory scent. She managed to climb up and set her mouth against the edge of the bowl.

  

Her mouth was salivating. The cat food in the bowl was soaked in water, and Lin Sifei used her mouth to touch it. She swallowed down nothing though, since she really couldn’t bring herself to eat cat food. After a while, she couldn’t bear it, so she raised her head to meow at Luo Ke. 

 

Luo Ke frowned, “Not eating?”

  

She took a deep breath and picked up her phone to search, “Goat’s milk?”

  

She opened the fridge, searched for a moment, took out a bottle, and went over to the stove to heat it up.

  

“Bai Xingrui was really thoughtful eh, cat food and goat’s milk were all prepared. It was all already planned, heh.”

  

Lin Sifei shuddered at her tone, but soon the aroma of milk spread, and she couldn’t help but swallow her saliva. By the time Luo Ke arrived with the goat’s milk, she was eagerly waiting by the bowl.

 

The steam rose instantly and Lin Sifei wanted to drink it, but her body was suddenly not on the ground anymore. She was picked up by Luo Ke.

  

“Meow!” Lin Sifei, frightened at being suddenly grabbed, flattened her tail between her legs and yowled. 

  

Luo Ke put her on the kitchen table and held her down to prevent her from moving.

  

Lin Shifei was so hungry, and continuously cried “Meow meoweow” to Luo Ke, internally berating her, but of course Luo Ke couldn’t understand. 

 

After a while, Luo Ke picked up the cat bowl and put it in front of her. Lin Sifei stuck out her  tongue to test it, and the temperature was just right.

 

Luo Ke poured a cup for herself as well, “So you’re not stupid, and know it’s hot.”

  

Lin Sifei buried her head in the food. So it was because Luo Ke was afraid that she didn’t know it was hot, so maybe this person wasn’t that cold and heartless.

  

As a kitten, her appetite was quite small, so after she drank a small half bowl, Lin Sifei was full. As she raised her head, droplets of water splashed onto her eyes. She shifted her head reflexively, forgetting the difference of a cat’s face and hit the rim of the bowl.

  

" "

Her balance was unsteady and she stepped into the cat bowl, tripping directly over it, knocking over the bowl, and causing the goat’s milk to drip all over the floor.

 

Luo Ke took a quick step back, yet some goat milk was split on her. She pinched her eyebrows to escape reality for a few seconds, and started to untangle the towel on her head.

  

Her long black hair fell down and draped messily over her shoulders. Lin Sifei laid on the kitchen table, observing Luo Ke’s eyebrows and eyes. 

  

She is very good looking, Lin Sifei thought. 

 

Luo Ke picked up the towel and wrapped her, holding it up and directly rolled Lin Sifei up in it. 

  

Lin Sifei’s eyes instantly ballooned and hiccupped in shock.

  

Luo Ke walked directly to the sink with the cat roll in her arms, turned on the faucet, unwrapped the towel, and put the cat in.

  

“Meow meow meow!” Lin Sifei stared at her legs in fear, and tried to grasp Luo Ke’s hand with her front paws. But she couldn’t hold something like human hands, so she reached out with her paws. Luo Ke hissed, holding Lin Sifei’s stomach with one hand and pouring the water with the other.

  

As Lin Sifei’s front paws held onto Luo Ke’s fingers, she became a little more at ease. Remembering that she just accidentally clawed someone, she hastily mewled in an affectionate manner, rubbing her face against Luo Ke’s wrist. 

 

Luo Ke’s eyebrows twitched, and frowned deeper.

 

Lin Sifei looked at her pursed lips and sighed, since it was apparent this person really didn’t like cats.

  

Hot water sloshed over her body, and Lin Sifei squinted comfortably. After all the scares she faced today, a hot bath was quite a relief, not to mention there was a masseuse to help her wash.

  

She was too comfortable and she suddenly felt something was wrong. Where was this woman’s hand touching? She meowed and started stomping, not enjoying it.

  

Luo Ke frowned and squeezed her tail, rubbing her butt, “A female cat?”

  

Lin Sifei laid down on her hands, helplessly thinking that there was nothing worth yearning for and wanting to die. 

 

Luo Ke’s fingers went upward, caressing Lin Sifei’s belly. Lin Sifei shuddered and meowed as she struggled into the water, “Stop touching!”

  

After staying underwater for another second or so, Luo Ke scooped her up.

  

Almost instinctively, she shook her head as soon as she got out of the water, and the water she shook off sprayed all over Luo Ke. 

 

It was only after she had shaken the water that she realized what she had done, and cautiously looked at Luo Ke to see her gloomy face.

 

She was thinking about whether or not she should act cutesy when Luo Ke picked her up, pulled out a towel and wrapped her, wiped her off, looked around and put her in the laundry basket.

  

Lin Sifei mewled as she dried herself on the towel, shaking the water and peeking out  from the slit in the laundry basket.

  

She watched as Luo Ke opened the glass door to the bathroom and her bathrobe slid down to the floor.

  

Lin Sifei stared, paws over her nose, and felt her face flushed red, even as a cat. She moved her butt and hid herself in the towel.
