He just broke up with his girlfriend and is already living with the devilish rich girl.

In a live-streaming studio converted from the second floor of a convenience store, a cat is making a heart shape with its hands in front of the camera.

Today she was wearing a black and white maid outfit, and she even had a bow pinned to her cat ears.

With her tail held high behind her, she squatted on the gaming chair, smiling sweetly at the screen.

"Thank you so much to the top donor, 'Tonight I'm Not Going Home,' for the carnival! Meow~ You're so generous! I'm so happy, meow~"

The comments section was flooded with messages.

Someone commented, "The streamer is so cute today."

Someone commented, "The maid outfit is amazing."

Some people are even using the phrase "catgirl yyds".

The cat's eyes crinkled with laughter as it watched the gift notifications scrolling across the screen.

Being a live streamer is tiring, but the money comes in really fast.

While mentally calculating her commission for the month, she made a cat paw gesture towards the camera.

"What do you brothers want me to perform? Singing or dancing, meow?"

The live chat started flooded with comments: "Perform that!"

"Cat paw unboxing!"

"Meow Meow Punch!"

"Can the streamer bark like a dog?!"

"That's a cat, not a dog!"

"Alright, alright~ Now I'll show you all what that cat is like~"

The cat then raised its paws above its head, making the shape of cat ears, and was about to start twisting them.

The door behind them was suddenly pushed open by a huge white claw.

With a bang, the door slammed against the wall, shaking the entire live-streaming room.

Then the cat saw three things crawl in from outside.

One of them is her boss, the White Wolf Knight.

He was currently in his beast form, carrying Luo Yao on his shoulder. Luo Yao, on the other hand, was quite comfortable, swinging her legs around.

She was looking down at her phone screen, tidying her long hair that had been ruffled by the night wind.

The cat was startled by the thing that the white wolf had tucked under his armpit with his other hand.

It was a disproportionately long, thin limb, with grayish-white skin that looked as if it were pieced together from different pieces of corpse.

The live stream was silent for a full two seconds.

Then the comments section went crazy.

"Holy crap, what is that thing?!"

"A wolf? Is that a real wolf? It's huge, my goodness!"

"What's that thing in the back? A zombie? Why doesn't it have eyes?"

"This special effects makeup is so realistic! Which team did it?"

The cat's tail exploded into a feather duster.

She sprang up from her chair, grabbed the camera and yanked it to the side, all the while shouting at the still-scrolling barrage of comments with all the professional skills she had learned in her life.

"It's all for the show, meow! It's all for the show! They're all actors! Don't be scared, brothers! This is our new special guest, meow!"

"That wolf is wearing a mascot costume! The backstage staff are setting up the equipment, meow! Oh yeah, that zombie in the back is fake too!"

"It's the special effects makeup team we hired, meow! Hahahaha, everyone, don't panic, meow!"

While she was trying to explain to the comments, she was also frantically giving Luo Yao meaningful glances out of the corner of her eye.

Luo Yao jumped down from the white wolf's shoulder and patted the wrinkles on her dress.

He glanced at the chaotic live stream, put on an innocent expression as if it were none of his business, and turned to White Wolf, saying something.

"Hey buddy, put that thing in the basement first. I'm going upstairs to change my clothes."

The white wolf growled, hoisted the monster onto its shoulder, and turned to walk towards the stairwell.

Cat watched helplessly as the two-meter-tall monster was dragged into the basement by the white wolf like a sack of potatoes.

A black bloodstain was left on the floor, and I was internally cursing.

I spent the whole afternoon mopping the floor! The whole afternoon! Do you know I bought a new mop just for this live stream?!

But she still maintained the sweet smile of a professional anchor, and made a cat paw gesture towards the camera that was already tilted to one side.

"Alright, alright~ Just a little interlude, meow~ The actors have all left the set~ Let's continue the live stream, meow~ Come on everyone, type 'Trust the streamer' in the chat, meow~"

When Luo Yao came down the stairs, Bai Ziheng was squatting in the corner of the basement tying a rope.

He heard footsteps, looked up, and stopped what he was doing.

She changed out of the dress she often wore.

The top is a loose white sweatshirt.

She wore a cartoon strawberry bear print on her chest and dark gray sweatpants.

The cuffs of her trousers were rolled up twice, revealing a slender ankle.

Her hair wasn't tied up; it was casually draped over her shoulders. It had just been blow-dried, and the ends were still a bit fluffy.

She wasn't wearing any makeup, not even lipstick, and stood bare-faced under the pale lights of the basement.

It had less of a demonic aura than usual, but more of something indescribable and inexplicable.

Bai Ziheng stared at her for a few seconds, then looked away and continued tying the rope.

He tied the monster to the corner of the wall with a rope as thick as a thumb.

It didn't struggle, but just curled up and breathed softly, making a broken snoring sound from its chest.

"There's no need for that."

Luo Yao walked to Bai Ziheng's side and gently waved her hand.

The hand didn't touch anything, but the rope seemed to have been cut by something invisible, neatly breaking into several pieces.

He slid off the monster and fell to the ground.

Bai Ziheng looked at the remaining half of the rope in his hand, then at Luo Yao: "Boss, you should have said so earlier. I spent ages tying it up."

Luo Yao didn't respond to his joke.

She walked straight up to the monster, which instinctively shrank back when it sensed someone approaching.

His bare feet stomped on the ground, leaving two gray streaks.

But it had already retreated to a corner, with nowhere left to go.

It raised its eyeless dog face and let out a low, mournful whine, its voice hoarse and weak, as if begging for mercy.

It's like calling out to someone whose existence you're unsure if they still exist.

Luo Yao bent down, raised her hand, and gently placed it on its head.

"Didn't you ask me that before?"

Her voice was very soft, as if she were talking to herself.

Bai Ziheng was stunned for a moment: "What?"

"You asked me if, besides you, there were any other humans I cared about."

She turned her head to look at Bai Ziheng, a smile curving her lips.

"Now I can tell you."

She turned back to look at the monster trembling in her palm.

An expression he had never seen before appeared on his face.

"Let me introduce you to Chen Li, my good friend, and also the silliest fool in the world."

"What do you mean...?"

Bai Ziheng stood there, stunned.

The creature was rubbing its eyeless dog face against Luo Yao's palm, making weak whimpering sounds.

"You mean, she is...a person?"

Yes, she is human.

Luo Yao gently scratched the few remaining intact patches of skin on the back of the monster's neck.

Ten years ago, she was also an officer in the logistics department of the Ninghai Special Administration Bureau.

"Her name is Chen Li. She's tall and thin, twenty-seven years old, has two dimples when she smiles, and can talk nonstop when she starts."

Bai Ziheng didn't know what to say.

He looked down at the monster on the ground, its limbs twisted and its skeleton protruding, and he couldn't connect it with the woman with two dimples when she smiled that Luo Yao had mentioned.

"What... is going on?"

"No rush, sit down first."

Luo Yao sat down cross-legged on the spot and patted the empty space next to her, as if inviting him to a tea party.

Bai Ziheng hesitated for a moment, but still sat down next to her, his back against the cold wall.

The monster huddled on Luo Yao's other side, burying its head in her arms, its body still trembling slightly.

"I was completely at a loss about this before."

Luo Yao tilted her head, her fingers slowly combing through the sparse hair on the back of the monster's neck.

"You probably noticed that before you met me, I was actually very weak."

"So weak that he can barely maintain his human form, let alone investigate what happened ten years ago."

"But now, my knight, you have reclaimed a small portion of my dominion."

She looked down at the monster in her arms, a slight smile playing on her lips.

"I can now seek some justice for her."
