After Transmigrating As The Female Lead Of A Cruel Novel, I Raised a Big Shot Cat - Chapter 14

The Big Boss made a leap, landing on the table in a “cat squat,” eyes sharp and piercing.

【Is friendship priceless?】

Bo Shuhan glanced toward Ji Qingyue. At that moment, Ji Qingyue wasn’t paying attention, she had just thought of something, put on her headphones, and begun sketching and drawing on a blueprint.

Seeing this, Bo Shuhan looked back, her tone leisurely. “Otherwise? Is there supposed to be ‘love’ between us?”

The Big Boss tilted its head, staring into Bo Shuhan’s eyes.

Thanks to a cat’s superb vision, it could perfectly capture every shift in Bo Shuhan’s gaze.

【Are you resisting Ji Qingyue?】 Staring into those emerald-green eyes, the Big Boss observed the changes while answering its own question. 【It seems not. Then is it because of me?】

The emerald eyes darkened.

【I guessed right.】 The Big Boss’s tone was nonchalant. 【Why resist me? Because I know too much about you? Hmm, not that reason?】

【Then it’s because I keep trying to set you up with Ji Qingyue, and it has made you feel disgusted.】

The corners of Bo Shuhan’s mouth tightened. The Big Boss understood immediately.

【I guessed right again.】

“Yes, you guessed right.” Bo Shuhan didn’t care that her thoughts were seen through, she simply arched an eyebrow.

For no reason at all, the Big Boss sensed a hint of provocation.

Licking its paw, it thought: 【Before I intervened, I knew I would incur your resentment.】

Its glossy black tail flicked, eventually curling over its front paws. The Big Boss stared at Bo Shuhan, enunciating every word in its mind.

【I am you. Naturally, I know you hate having your future arranged, even if it’s your future self doing the arranging. You will still hate it. You will resist contact with Qingyue and suppress your feelings. But do you know why I keep bringing it up, repeatedly telling you that you will fall in love with Ji Qingyue?】

“I don’t know.”

【Because…】 The Big Boss stared straight at Bo Shuhan. Suddenly, Bo Shuhan felt the cat’s eyes flickering with an eerie green light.

In the next second, her vision went black. When she woke up again, she saw Ji Qingyue’s face.

The night had passed. The early morning light filtered through the curtains, falling gently on Ji Qingyue’s hair, turning the black strands into a warm brown. She seemed to be glowing.

Bo Shuhan sat up guardedly. She didn’t know what had happened yesterday, but her intuition told her it wasn’t anything good.

Just as she tried to throw off the covers, what appeared before her eyes were a pair of black paws.

Alarm bells rang in her head as Bo Shuhan scrambled to her feet.

Watching the surveillance footage of the black cat suddenly jumping up, the Big Boss smiled silently. She then instructed the assistant beside her: “Hand over the remaining affairs in Shanghai to someone else. We are flying to Kyoto this afternoon.”

Although the secretary didn’t know why the boss was doing this, as a professional, she adhered to the principle of not asking questions. she immediately agreed and arranged the flight tickets.

Meanwhile, Bo Shuhan finally realized she had turned into a cat!

“Meow!”

The sharp, piercing meow made Ji Qingyue frown. The Big Boss (in Bo’s body) couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow, it was quite rude to wake someone up so early in the morning.

Bo Shuhan didn’t care about manners right now. She only wanted to know why she had suddenly become this cat!

Wasn’t this cat supposed to be her from two years in the future? If she had become the cat, then where was the “her” from two years ago?

With a growing sense of dread, Bo Shuhan stumbled toward the door.

Predicting this, the Big Boss pressed a button on her phone. Just as Bo Shuhan was about to open the door, she heard a cat’s voice from behind her.

She was the only cat in the room, so that sound was…

Stumbling back toward the chair, Bo Shuhan saw a phone taped underneath it. Just as she extended her claw to hook it down, the screen lit up, and Bo Shuhan’s own face appeared.

The Bo Shuhan in the video was the polar opposite of her usual cold self. The person on screen was smiling brightly and gave a little wave as a greeting.

“Hello, Bo Shuhan. I know you’re surprised and likely very upset that I’ve taken over your body, but believe me, this won’t last forever.”

Speaking to this point, the Big Boss felt a bit helpless.

Ultimately, her past self was just too stubborn!

Why was her head like a block of wood two years ago? So damn stubborn!

Otherwise, she would never have had to swap bodies. Wouldn’t it be better to be the cat, snuggling, kissing, and hugging Ji Qingyue every day?

Thinking of this, the Big Boss’s expression soured, and she even complained: “It’s all because you’re so useless.”

Bo Shuhan: “???”

“I told you, I am you from two years in the future. Why would I harm you? Besides…” The Big Boss’s expression turned grave. “Even though little Qingyue used every means possible to prevent Ye Sishen from finding her location, I have a feeling he has found her anyway.”

Saying this, the Big Boss looked toward the direction of Kyoto with concern.

“I originally thought that as long as you didn’t cooperate with Ye Sishen, the world would naturally head in a different direction. Ji Qingyue would eventually stand on the biggest, brightest stage, confidently and happily displaying her designs and sharing her philosophy with the world.”

“But when this premonition appeared, I knew that if I didn’t act, the future wouldn’t change.”

At that moment, the Big Boss’s eyes were filled with emotions Bo Shuhan couldn’t decipher. The complexity flashed by, and the Boss sighed with a face full of grievance, seemingly wanting to say more.

The next second…

“Da Laolao (Big Boss)~”

Ji Qingyue’s voice suddenly rang out, and the phone screen immediately cut to black.

Bo Shuhan lunged and scratched the phone fiercely, but the device didn’t budge. However, Ji Qingyue found the cat’s location based on the noise.

Without hesitation, she knelt on the ground, preparing to pick up the cat hiding under the chair. Fearing the phone under the chair would be discovered, Bo Shuhan scrambled out and was immediately swept into Ji Qingyue’s arms.

When Ji Qingyue carried the cat, she didn’t like holding it by the scruff, as she thought it made the cat uncomfortable. She also didn’t like holding it by the front paws, feeling that letting the cat dangle in mid-air would make it feel nauseous.

Instead, she liked to cradle the cat’s bottom, letting it lean against her chest with its head tucked against her collarbone, just like holding a baby.

Usually, the Big Boss was thick-skinned and would even rub its head against Ji Qingyue’s jawline.

But this was Bo Shuhan!

A woman who was extremely concerned with her dignity and absolutely refused to face social death. She rejected being held like this because her paws were currently pressed against the woman’s breasts.

After all, Ji Qingyue’s body was that of a tragic romance novel’s female lead, curvaceous and well-proportioned. Consequently, Bo Shuhan, now a cat, felt her paws sinking into a soft, plush abyss.

The sensation of her feet leaving the ground combined with the lack of a stable surface to tread upon made Bo Shuhan intensely resistant. Driven by feline instinct, she subconsciously extended her claws, trying to hook onto the fabric of Ji Qingyue’s clothing.

However, Ji Qingyue preferred wearing thin cotton pajamas to sleep. The fabric was extremely light, and at that moment, her collar was wide open.

“Hiss.” Ji Qingyue sucked in a breath of cold air, suddenly clutching her chest. Even then, she couldn’t bring herself to toss the cat aside. Instead, she gripped the scruff of the cat’s neck, pulled her away from her chest, and gently placed her on the floor.

Once on the ground, Bo Shuhan stared at Ji Qingyue in a daze.

She let out an unconscious “Meow,” only to snap her mouth shut with a darkened expression a second later.

Seeing Ji Qingyue frowning in pain, Bo Shuhan felt a surge of anxiety. She paced restlessly in front of her for nearly half a minute until Ji Qingyue finally recovered.

Ji Qingyue affectionately rubbed the cat’s head. “What’s wrong? Are you hungry? Hang on, I’ll make breakfast.”

With that, Ji Qingyue pulled back her collar slightly to inspect the area.

It wasn’t serious, the claws had just broken the skin, and a few beads of blood had seeped out. Ji Qingyue didn’t take it to heart at all, she had raised cats before and being accidentally scratched was perfectly normal.

It was only because this specific body was unusually sensitive to pain that she had been forced to crouch on the floor for a bit. In the past, she wouldn’t have given it a second glance.

After wiping it with a tissue in the bathroom, Ji Qingyue went to the kitchen to prepare food.

Bo Shuhan followed her the entire way. Seeing that Ji Qingyue had no intention of disinfecting the scratch, she kept circling around her feet.

Misinterpreting her intentions, Ji Qingyue scooped the cat up and gave her a big kiss. Pressing her forehead against the cat’s, she whispered, “You little glutton, it’ll be ready soon. Just wait a little longer~”

She then planted another kiss on the cat’s head.

Back on the floor, Bo Shuhan felt her mind go hazy; her footsteps felt like she was walking on clouds.

She had been kissed by a woman twice today!

This! This was…!

Too shameful!

She suddenly leaped onto the sofa, trying to bury her head into the crevices of the cushions.

Ji Qingyue finished the meal and walked out. Unaware that the cat was dying of embarrassment, she patted the cat’s rear and called out softly, “Time to eat, Big Boss.”

Bo Shuhan wanted to move even less, she didn’t want to see Ji Qingyue’s face at all.

But no matter how she tried to hide, she was currently just a weak, pitiful little kitten. Eventually, she was kissed two more times and placed on the table to eat her meal obediently.

To give credit where it’s due, Ji Qingyue treated the cat exceptionally well. Even though she was broke and eating plain buns with pickles, the cat’s breakfast was still a piece of steamed chicken breast with egg.

The chicken was fresh and the egg was tender.

After taking a couple of bites, Bo Shuhan suddenly felt that her future self was a total jerk. Ji Qingyue was so strapped for cash, why hadn’t “Big Boss” mentioned a single word about it?

When she had asked yesterday, the Big Boss acted like she had no idea. It was truly infuriating.

Meanwhile, having just arrived at the office, the “Big Boss” (in Bo’s body) sneezed twice in a row. Instead of being annoyed, her eyes crinkled into a smile. 🙂

Little Qingyue must be thinking of me~

At that moment, the secretary pushed open the door. “Boss, Ye Sishen and his friend Lu Cheng are here to visit.”

Hearing this, a bloodthirsty smile played across “Bo Shuhan’s” lips. “I’ve been waiting for them for a long time. Let them in.”

The secretary shuddered, replied, and left immediately.

Bo Shuhan sent out a series of messages on her phone, then leisurely looked toward the two men who were knocking on the door.
