Chapter 1
"Your style is really weird. Can't you learn from those trendy styles?!" The voice, barely concealing its anger, chased away Ning Wensong's drowsiness.
She slowly straightened up and looked at her teacher, asking incredulously, "Do you really think those cat haircuts online, with their straight bangs and segmented, lotus root-like styles, look good? They're so ugly, why do you admire them?"
Ning Wensong feels heartbroken whenever she thinks about those cats. They were so cute to begin with, won't they get depressed after being cut like that?
Seeing that the teacher was about to continue, she quickly waved her hand and begged for mercy: "I won't do it anymore, I won't argue with you. We've been arguing for so many years and haven't gotten anything out of it."
After saying this, Ning Wensong turned and left, leaving the teacher alone in deep thought:
If that kind of styling wasn't good, why did it become popular? It's impossible for everyone to like ugly things, right? No, no, no, it's a beautiful style! Yes, beautiful!
Back home, Ning Wensong lay down and felt itchy all over, as if her bones were being pulled and squeezed. No matter how much pain she was in, she couldn't wake up.
She could only endure the pain in the darkness, hoping it would all end soon...

The New World.
It had just rained a little last night, and the water droplets hanging on the branches shone with iridescent colors.
Ning Wensong was awakened by water droplets. She noticed water constantly falling on the tip of her nose, opened her eyes, and sneezed.
Huh? Why am I on the ground? She stared blankly at the ground beneath the white claws.
Huh? Where did I get my paws?! Ning Wensong wanted to scream, but all that came out was "meow meow meow."
Ning Wensong's brain raced, considering all sorts of possibilities: Was he captured and taken to a research institute for re-engineering? Am I dead? Am I in heaven?
She propped herself up and turned to look at herself. Black and white curly hair. Hmm, is that Devon? Ning Wensong suppressed her inner fear.
I want to find a mirror to see if I've really turned into a cat.
Ning Wensong tried to lift her front leg, but instead, she stretched out her hind leg. Anxious, she tried again and this time she stretched out both front legs...
In the end, the whole cat just collapsed on the floor. (._.)
Shen Che, who was buying breakfast nearby, caught a glimpse of this scene and was amused. "How come there's a cat that can't walk?"
"Hmm..." Shen Che thought for a while, maybe he could take such a beautiful kitten back to be the guardian cat of the courtyard.
On the other side, Ning Wensong was finally able to walk normally after repeated attempts—by walking with her feet in the same direction, she estimated the height of her head from the ground, and figured that if she really turned into a cat, she would most likely be a one-month-old kitten.
Ning Wensong strained to look around and spotted a small fountain pool not far away. Overjoyed, she hurriedly stumbled and ran to the pool.
The clear water reflected the black and white Devon's cat face, which then displayed an extremely human-like expression in the pool.
"Oh my god, how did I turn into a cat? And a tiny Devon at that, sob sob. Even if I were to turn into a cat, I should have turned into a Maine Coon! So handsome and big. I wonder if this is still the same world..." Ning Wensong was a little worried. She had no ability to protect herself now, so wouldn't anyone be able to take advantage of her?
Ning Wensong became absorbed in his own thoughts, adopting a "what's done is done" mentality, and began to plan how to build his career in the cat world.
Completely unaware that her little body was starting to feel top-heavy.
After Ning Wensong thought for a long time, she suddenly looked up, and Devon's body did a somersault and fell into the pool.
In an instant, water rushed into her lungs. Ning Wensong struggled desperately, but she couldn't reach the bottom of the pool, nor could she do the cat swim. She could only sink as she struggled.
Just as she was about to lose consciousness, her frantically flailing claws snagged on a hard object, and she quickly climbed up it using both hands and feet.
Before he could even see what it was climbing, Ning Wensong suffocated from choking on water and then trying to breathe.
The little head drooped at Shen Che's wrist, lifeless.
Shen Che couldn't help but blame himself; he had just turned his head to answer a phone call and hadn't noticed what was happening here.
If she had picked up the kitten in the first place, she wouldn't have drowned.
Chen Che picked up Ning Wensong with one hand and slowly guided her to spit out the water. Then he placed his other hand on her head and channeled streams of vital energy into Ning Wensong's body to nourish her exhausted soul and damaged lungs.

One day later
Ning Wensong struggled in the dark world, and an unknown force sustained her until she woke up.
The beautiful Devonian kitten slowly opened its eyes. Ning Wensong sat up and looked around. All she could see were all kinds of cats. She saw the breathing support device next to her and realized that she was in a pet hospital.
"I wonder who saved me? I really need to thank him. I used to see kittens burying their heads in their milk bowls every day, but I never imagined I'd experience a life-or-death situation myself. I wonder if the person I'm talking to can understand me?"
When Ning Wensong gets nervous, she becomes a chatterbox and talks to herself. She waited for half an hour without seeing a single person, so she simply lay down and imitated other cats by washing her face and licking her fur.
It must be because of the cat, how did I become so skilled at it? Ah, washing my face feels so good~
Ning Wensong was so relaxed that he lost his ability to judge his surroundings.
Shen Che quietly walked up to her and made a sound, which startled her so much that she tucked her tail between her legs and hissed. Shen Che, rarely indulging in his wicked pleasure, pretended to cough to cover up his smile.
"Meow! Does this person walk without making a sound? There's something strange about him. Should I test whether he can understand me?"
Ning Wensong looked up at the man in front of her and then noticed that he had a head of long, black hair.
Noticing that Devon was observing him, Chen Che generously squatted down to be level with Ning Wensong.
His eyebrows were not the usual long and slender, heroic shape; his eyes were deep, as if containing a vast starry sky; his nose was high and his jaw was distinct, giving him a cold and indifferent appearance. But Shen Wensong always felt that this person was "two-faced" and had the aura of a "dangerous element".
Chen Che simply let her see it openly; it wouldn't hurt him, and besides, he quite liked the Devon.
"Have you stared enough, little kitten? I make noise when I walk." Shen Che's words startled Ning Wensong.
He understands.
She quickly looked up at the person in the white coat in front of her. Was it only him who could hear, or could everyone hear?
For some reason, Chen Che usually doesn't feel like playing with kittens, but this Devon seems to be different; they're the same kind.
"Not just me, tell me, little cat, how did you get here? Or did you become a spirit naturally? Do you have a name?" A barrage of questions left Ning Wensong's head spinning. Chen Che looked at the little cat's dazed expression and realized he had asked too many questions at once.
"Let me introduce myself first. My name is Chen Che. I'm the veterinarian here, and also a cat demon who lives in human society. I saved you when you fell from the tree. But how did you suddenly gain sentience? You've only been here for about a month." This was Chen Che's biggest question, as he had cultivated for a hundred years before gaining sentience.
I am still the most talented person in the tribe.
After recovering, Ning Wensong carefully replied, "Thank you for saving me. I am Ning Wensong. I woke up this morning and suddenly became like this. I used to be human, but I don't know how I turned into a cat. Can you help me?" She desperately wanted to become human again; being a cat made her feel too insecure.
Besides, how can I still fulfill my dreams this way?
This was also the first time Chen Che had encountered a human transforming into a cat. He flipped through the ancient books in his mind: "Let me try to think about it. This situation is very rare. There aren't many people at the hospital today. Would you like me to help you get used to it?"
"Okay, thank you." Ning Wensong was very grateful to him; having someone to accompany her made her feel much more at ease.
Ning Wensong, who habitually observed his surroundings, noticed a strange blue cat whose fur seemed to have been trimmed into sections, making it look like a "cat dinosaur"!
It's unbelievable that such a work exists in this world!
"Chen Che, I want to see it up close! But I'm too scared to jump down..." Ning Wensong moved to the edge of the bed, looking at the distance that seemed to be hundreds of feet from the ground, and the hairs on his body stood on end.
Ugh, turning into a kitten has made me so timid (._.)
Shen Che couldn't help but laugh; she was so cute.
He lifted Ning Wensong off the bed with a standard lifting motion, somewhat puzzled as to why the blue cat had attracted her, so he simply asked, "Why do you want to see this blue cat? Is it because of its appearance?"
Shen Che stared at the chubby blue cat. In fact, he didn't really feel the current pet design, but he really disliked the blue cat's appearance.
After Ning Wensong transformed into a cat, her five senses were enhanced. She slowly moved toward the blue cat's medical kit.
After all, she hasn't learned to run yet.
Ning Wensong got closer to see the cat's condition. Its bizarre appearance had caused the fur on the blue cat's face to become matted, and the fur on its limbs was too long and dragged on the ground. You could vaguely see many fleas in the fur, and there were also many small bloodstains on its body.
How could this be? Ning Wensong's heart sank.
"The owner of this blue cat is an office worker who wanted to show off his cat, so he gave it this haircut. As a result, he went to work and left the cat at home for half a month. Now it seems to be depressed, and its fur is all messy and it has developed a skin disease."
Shen Che explained the cat's situation to Ning Wensong. He couldn't help but get angry when he thought of the owner, who was only concerned with his own vanity.
Ning Wensong was also unusually angry after hearing this, and at the same time, he kept thinking about what kind of shape could keep it beautiful while it could be treated normally, so as to at least prevent it from becoming depressed.
But even if you figure it out, what can you do? A cat's paws can't hold scissors...
Ning Wensong's mood plummeted again.
"Chen Che, I want to fulfill my dream. I want to become human. If I were still human, I could help this cat. I could give it a nice and safe makeover. Why did I become a cat...?"
In just one day, her worldview was shattered and rebuilt. She kept comforting herself that perhaps she was lucky in this world, but no matter how lucky she was, she could not pick up the scissors to continue her dream.
Shen Che saved her, perhaps it was some kind of preordained connection, she believed Shen Che could help her.
Sure enough, after thinking deeply for a long time, he finally found a way to transform into a human in his mind.
He pinched Ning Wensong's armpit and lifted him up in front of him.
Under her suddenly wide-eyed gaze, Chen Che closed his eyes and gently touched noses with Ning Wensong.
In the cat world, touching noses means kissing.
Ning Wensong, who had been dealing with cats for a long time, naturally knew that a strange but not repulsive feeling arose in her heart. But before she could think about it, she felt her whole body burning up, and the pain of her bones being stretched and enlarged came very intensely.
Shen Che promptly placed her on the bed in the lounge. It was the first time he had ever touched noses with a kitten, and this was what it felt like.
Hmm, it's alright.
Before she fully transformed, Chen Che went out to buy some clothes for Ning Wensong, so that she could be alone when she woke up.
I don't know what she looks like, what size she wears, what her favorite colors are. Oh, and I need to buy some styling tools, I should buy some of everything...
When Ning Wensong woke up from her coma, she found that her body had changed. She quickly sat up, covered herself with the blanket, and saw that her fingers had returned to human form. She finally felt a sense of peace.
Since I can transform into a human, I'm determined to show my work to the world this time, so my teacher knows I'm right!
This time, I won't hold back. Ning Wensong has made up her mind.
When Shen Che brought the clothes, Ning Wensong couldn't wait to change. She walked up to him, bowed, and thanked him, saying, "Shen Che, thank you so much for saving me and helping me transform. I'll repay you when I earn money! But I might have to bother you for a while, as I have nowhere else to go. I can also help you with odd jobs..."
Overwhelmed with joy and gratitude, Ning Wensong kept talking.
A chatterbox kitten, just like me.
At first, Shen Che was startled by her appearance. Because of her original form, Ning Wensong had short curly hair after transforming into a human. She had a pair of clear, watery eyes, as clear as a newborn child's. Her nose was small and straight. After becoming human, she always had a smile on her face.
Shen Che noticed that she had very cute dimples, which were adorable.
"You were originally human, so I need to introduce you to the cat demon group. We have a clan, located in a very far place. There are only a handful of cat demons in the human world, and they are mostly powerful demons. If you come with me, I will protect you. We can keep each other company, right? Don't feel guilty, I will take care of you."
Chen Che thought back to his lonely days and comforted Ning Wensong, after all, she was very cute, and he was willing to take care of a little cat.
Ning Wensong was shocked by what he said, and she could only process it herself. Out of politeness, she did not ask what kind of cat Shen Che was.
As their eyes met, the river of fate had already begun to flow.
"Then let's go save Blue Cat!" Ning Wensong couldn't stand his gaze any longer, so she changed the subject, saying that helping Blue Cat was the priority.
Ning Wensong had already planned out the look beforehand. She took the scissors and other tools that Shen Che had prepared for her, and Shen Che helped to hold the cat in place for a while before she started working!
The cat's special abilities have also influenced people. Ning Wensong now has more precise control over her hands as she thinks about the design she has in mind.
Shave the fur around the wound on the blue cat as close to the natural skin as possible, then trim the messy fur on its face, and finally design a heart shape while preserving its intact fur...
Because there were many small wounds, the repair process lasted two hours. Looking at the newly made heart-shaped blue cat, Chen Che couldn't help but sigh, "This is real design! I don't understand why people nowadays would idolize ugly things."
Ning Wensong looked at his work with satisfaction. Now Blue Cat could take a proper IV drip to recover. The intense thinking and hands-on work had brought Ning Wensong's spirit to its peak.
Before he could even shout and boast, he lost consciousness.
Shen Che quickly caught Ning Wensong as she slumped over, and was about to carry her to rest when he felt his hand become lighter.
Black and white German staggered out of the pile of clothes, then collapsed to the ground.
Shen Che looked at her and smiled gently. She was so cute.
—
the next day.
A scream echoed throughout the pet hospital, "My cat—!!!"
