Always Ending Up as an Animal CubChapter 10

The system laughed wildly in his mind as Yu Tong lay on Yun Mingchen’s face lifelessly, like a dead cat. 

The second time he pounced on the antagonist, he felt that his fate with the antagonist had probably come to an end. FCAOJy

Yun Mingchen sighed deeply, raising his hand to grasp the little cat’s scruff. After groping around for a while, he realized that this was a paper cat. 

In just a few seconds, the antagonist sighed three times, making Yu Tong anxious.

Chrysanthemum Garden.

Before being trapped, Yu Tong took the initiative and turned his head, aiming at Lord Yun and launching another cat leap. 

Yun Mingchen reached out, but the cat was much faster than him. It was like the flash; he couldn’t catch it at all.  R7I5xL

Yun Mingchen lowered his head, looking somewhat suspiciously at his own hands.

He remembered that when he first met the kitten, it had pounced on him twice in a row. 

If the previous times were because he was unprepared, what was the matter this time? 

A cultivator with in the Meditation stage still couldn’t catch a kitten?

Could it be because he was in a dream now? Was the cat’s ability enhanced?

Even when Yun Mingchen dreamed, he retained a certain level of cognitive ability.

He looked up, and the paper cat was splayed on his father, biting his head again and again. In a matter of seconds, half of his father’s head had been gnawed off.

Yun Mingchen: ! Vvd2xm

“Stop it, Dogshit!”

With the “Heart-to-Heart” prop, Yu Tong could sense that Yun Mingchen’s joy at this moment far exceeded his anger.

Ah, this hypocritical man.

Ignoring him, Yu Tong continued nibbling on Mr. Yun’s head, while complaining to the system. bj6kxw

‘What’s going on with Yun Mingchen’s dream? Why is Lord Yun’s head made of iron – it’s hurting my teeth!’

System: ……

【Compared to Mr. Yun, I think you’re more bizarre. Why did you start biting right away? This is a person; aren’t you worried about his brain spraying all over you?】

Yu Tong fell silent for a moment, then smiled brightly at it. ‘You’re right. I was too hasty just now, didn’t think about that.’ bxiod0

【…You’re acting fishy.】

Chrysanthemum Garden.

These were the words spoken by 8102 before, and now Yu Tong turned the tables on the system.

It was evident that Yun Mingchen was going easy on him. He only stopped him in a hurry when he was about to bite off Lord Yun’s entire head.

With Lord Yun headless, there was no way he could continue pestering Yun Mingchen. 

Only Lady Yun, who stuck to him on the left, kept repeating, “You must revitalize the Yun family.”

The dual voice hypnotizing sound effect turned into a single-sided loop. Even without the prop, Yu Tong could sense that Yun Mingchen was much more relaxed than before.  lVUEBH

He shook the paper cat back and forth, calling out tentatively, “Dogshit?”

Yu Tong didn’t like that name. Pretending not to understand human speech, he retched and spit out screws.

Everyone in the antagonist’s dream was fake, and biting them was uncomfortable. 

He wondered what Yun Mingchen had experienced to have such dreams. 7Ndpks

Just as Yun Mingchen was about to study the iron-eating little cat in earnest, Lady Yun, who had been nagging in his ear, suddenly appeared behind Wen Yingying. 

Before anyone, including the cat, could react, Lady Yun raised her hand and pushed, causing Wen Yingying to fall uncontrollably toward Yun Mingchen.

Still dangling the cat, Yun Mingchen could have dodged, but the thin threads tied to him in the dream suddenly started to tighten. 

He was firmly bound in place, only able to watch as Wen Yingying fell into his arms. Tte9QZ

Immediately, the calm dream began to distort. The surroundings shifted from a school classroom to a wedding scene. 

Yun Mingchen maintained his previous posture, but his clothes turned into a bright red suit. 

Wen Yingying, also in wedding attire, stood stiffly across from him.

The sudden change in the environment caught Yu Tong off guard.  Sp0WP2

Just then, Wen Yingying lifted the red veil and angrily cried out to Yun Mingchen: “Since you like men, why did you marry me? I told you I have someone in my heart, why did you force me!?”

Hearing Wen Yingying’s accusations, Yun Mingchen started struggling to move his body, trying to break free from the control of the thin threads.

Yu Tong’s leg was caught in his hand, so the little cat swayed back and forth with his movements.

Feeling the antagonist’s anxiety and reluctance, Yu Tong couldn’t help but sigh to the system: “Even the antagonist can’t escape forced marriages from parents. My parents are better; they never pressure me to get married.” Wdio3A

The system was busy shopping for temporary tattoos and casually tacked on a response. 【Your parents are so open-minded? They actually respect your personal opinions?】

‘Not respectful, but at least they don’t nag, which is still much better.’

【……?】

Yun Mingchen and the iron shell Wen Yingying, manipulated by the thin threads, completed the ceremony. A group of guests with faces resembling Lord Yun and Lady Yun urged them to hurry to the bridal chamber. NUwAbf

Lady Yun, who had initially been whispering in Yun Mingchen’s ear, returned to his side and started nagging again.

“Mingchen, don’t be nervous. Mom and Dad have already chosen someone to spend the night with Miss Wen in the bridal chamber. Your little boyfriend is waiting for you in another room. You’ll be able to sleep together later, consider today as you and your darling’s wedding day.”

Even in a dream, Yun Mingchen, pushed to the limit, felt breathless and suffocated. 

He was led into a room by the thin threads, and with a side glance, he saw Wen Yingying, who was crying incessantly. His heart turned cold. CiWhdq

Suddenly, in the chaotic dream, a cat’s meow sounded once again. 

Yun Mingchen felt the paper cat, which he had gripped by the hind leg, struggle forward. With a “meow,” it pounced on his wife’s head and started to gnaw continuously.

After gnawing at her, the paper cat with a missing leg stood on Wen Yingying’s iron body, roaring at the guests below, “Meow! Meow, meow!”

For some reason, even though the little cat’s meows sounded sweet and cute, Yun Mingchen felt that the current Dogshit resembled a fierce little tiger.  CGcIrw

Perhaps it was because this was Yun Mingchen’s dream, a world constructed based on his consciousness.

After his ranting meows, Yu Tong felt his body rapidly growing. 

In the blink of an eye, he transformed from a palm-sized paper cat into a giant paper cat over ten meters tall. 

Staring at the enlarged paper claws, Yu Tong suddenly had a bright idea. KaSiy0

He turned his attention to the thin threads entwining Yun Mingchen and fiercely bit down. 

The moment the threads were bitten through, Yu Tong saw the antagonist lift his head and gaze at him in a daze.

In those ink-black eyes, a faint glimmer of starlight seemed to appear.

A complex emotion surged from Yun Mingchen’s heart into Yu Tong’s body through the “Heart-to-Heart” prop. His heart began to beat violently, and his breathing became uncontrollably rapid. 1gu2n

Yun Mingchen, like a wild beast set free, stiffly moved his limbs. A faint smile gradually appeared on his face, which had been tense since entering the dream.

His smile was natural and beautiful, and Yu Tong couldn’t help but glance at it a few more times.

He stared until the antagonist recovered his serious expression. Yu Tong withdrew his gaze. 

Ready to capitalize on his momentum, he planned to tear apart Lord and Lady Yun with his claws and trample on the iron shelled people all over the floor. VgtFZ7

But then, a loud knocking sound abruptly echoed in the dream. Yu Tong felt a moment of dizziness, and the next second, he was ejected from the dream.

In the real world, it was already 7 in the morning. 

The morning sunlight streamed through the window, casting a glow on the bed in the dorm room.

The system, still mindful of the previous bet, took advantage of Yu Tong not having fully recovered from his daze and sneakily checked the backend information. X ydqL

【Current deviation value of Yun Mingchen’s character: 3/100】

————

The knocking sound echoed in the bedroom, and Yun Mingchen, who was lying in bed asleep, abruptly opened his eyes. 

Thinking of the dream he just had, he instinctively looked around for the little cat. eqwjLa

The kitten was sleeping soundly by his pillow, seemingly annoyed by the knocking noise, using its two little paws to cover its ears.

The knocking sound became more urgent, and Yun Mingchen temporarily suppressed his confusion, pushing it to the back of his mind.

He casually gestured his hand, and the door automatically opened under the influence of his spiritual power. 

An honest-looking male servant stood awkwardly at the door. “Young Master, the student council has an urgent meeting. The vice president is waiting for you downstairs.” ayskb6

Yu Tong, who was pretending to be asleep, secretly opened one eye. 

Yun Mingchen was the president of the student council, but according to the original story, he would be replaced by the male protagonist in half a month. 

Story translated by Chrysanthemum Garden.

After becoming the president, the male protagonist added the female vice president, a junior, and a female guidance teacher to his harem.

Yu Tong didn’t have much feeling towards the protagonist — he disliked the male protagonist more because of him stepping on N ships at once.  y UQvV

He listened attentively for a while. There was news that seven students had died in the school overnight. The faculty was having a meeting, and they needed the student council’s help to maintain order in the school.

Seeing the antagonist getting dressed to leave, Yu Tong hurriedly meowed and caught up, wanting the antagonist to take him along. 

Hearing the meow, Yun Mingchen looked down at the kitten by his feet for a few seconds. “Xixi? Almost forgot about you.”

He took out the cat cage brought by the servant, opened it, and looked at the kitten. “Get in, Dogshit.” ts1ac7

Yu Tong: ……

Translator's Note

Remember when the system was explaining props (Husband and Wife’s Resemblance) and Yu Tong asked how that would work? He asked something like, will I have a cat body and human head or a human body and cat head? The system responded just like this.
