Jian Xun, the universally hated, transmigrated into a novel. The system told him that if he could save just one person, he would be granted a wish.... more>>

Overjoyed, Jian Xun prepared to restart his life and follow the future bigshot to the peak of success. But then...

He turned into a cat.

And not just any cat—a filthy, limping, stray tabby!

Fortunately, he managed to scam the bigshot into taking him home.

At this point in time, the future bigshot was still young—an unloved, pitiful college student living alone, with no parents around.

Jian Xun had originally planned to rely on his adorable appearance to freeload and push the plot forward. But the other person didn't seem to like cats at all—no cuddles, no kisses, no pets...

Jian Xun broke down: Am I seriously a universally hated cat too?

To win the bigshot’s attention, the cat—with maxed-out life skills—started doing housework.

The cat cooked: braised fish, pickled fish, steamed fish—fish every day.

The cat did the dishes: hated water but leaped onto the dishwasher and pressed start.

The cat mopped the floor: ran around parkour-style, paws on a rag.

The cat gave massages: raised white-gloved paws to deliver soft and squishy kitty punches.

Diligently doing chores and becoming a capable cat, Jian Xun thought: Damn, I'm awesome!

Just like that, he watched the pitiful boy grow into a business tycoon.

Only to discover in the end... the one he’d been caring for was actually the biggest villain in the entire story!

...

Shang Xuci, heir to a top-tier financial conglomerate, lived a miserable youth despite his noble lineage. Weak in health, orphaned by his mother’s early death, and bullied even by the household maids, he was at the bottom of the hierarchy. Later, he was framed, left with crippled legs, and abandoned by everyone he once trusted.

As an adult, Shang Xuci became paranoid and ruthless—dealing with his enemies, punishing traitors, and eventually reclaiming power at the peak of the Jian family's empire. Yet in the end, he died in an accident.

When he opened his eyes again, he had been reborn—lying in a hospital bed, staring at his stepmother's fake smile. Disgust surged in his heart.

Suddenly, a cat leapt up and scratched the woman across the face. She fled in panic.

He took a closer look at the little stray—it had a limp. Its light blue eyes shimmered with a wet, glassy innocence as it gazed at him.

The next second, the cat turned and limped away without looking back.

Shang Xuci lowered his eyes, fingers curling into a fist.

Not long after, the soft mewing of a kitten reached his ears. The tiny stray had struggled all the way back to him, carefully tucked its claws away, and shakily extended a dull gray paw—upon which rested a single piece of candy.

It was the sweetest thing he had ever tasted in his life. <<less
