Releasing a mission at a time like this, it definitely isn't a good mission!
As everyone knows, a cat's seventh sense is quite accurate! So Selene guessed correctly! It really isn't a good mission... *Whirring sounds*... [Host, please accept the mission! As a stubborn Little Kitten, how can you just let others pet you without fighting back?!]
[Host, please fight back! No matter what method you use! As long as Fu Xuan feels embarrassed and blushes, the mission will be complete!]
[Upon mission completion, Host will gain cooking mastery and will have a fixed six hours each day to transform into human form. This time refreshes daily and cannot be accumulated.]
[Mission failure: Host's identity is exposed, locked in a dark room by Fu Xuan, and will 'brew' and 'sauce' with Fu Xuan every day...]
Selene: ??? Is this failure penalty serious? Can I say I'm willing?!
Hearing this failure penalty, Selene felt inexplicably excited.
[A reminder: after failure, you will be the passive party, meaning you will be the O.]
Selene: ??? No way!!! That kind of thing absolutely cannot happen! I'm going to marry Fu Xuan Wife! How can I be the O!
At the same time, Fu Xuan, who was quietly nestled against Selene's fluffy belly, naturally heard Selene's inner thoughts.
However, she didn't hear the whole thing, only hearing the other party say that she wanted to marry her and take her home as a wife. As for the latter part, "how can I be the O," Fu Xuan didn't understand its meaning.
But... that Stupid Cat reacted so strongly, it must not be a good thing, at least not for her... [Hmm... how can This Meow make Fu Xuan Wife feel embarrassed and blush?]
Hearing this inner thought, Fu Xuan was stunned.
What? Make This Meow feel embarrassed and blush? Hmph! You, this Stupid Cat, probably can't do it, can you?! Unless...
All sorts of strange images appeared in Fu Xuan's mind, making her pretty face instantly flush crimson, even her earlobes turned pink, looking very cute! It made one want to reach out and pinch them!
But this scene, in Selene's eyes... [This Meow hasn't even taken action yet?! Why have you already turned into this state?!]
Fortunately, Fu Xuan's state didn't last too long, because our Grand Diviner adult promptly cleared those strange thoughts from her mind!
"Hmph! Those things that would make This Meow feel embarrassed are not something you, a Stupid Cat pinned down on the sofa by This Meow, can accomplish! It's better to give up early!"
As Fu Xuan was thinking this, she suddenly felt something soft on top of her head!
Fu Xuan instantly realized something, and her pupils widened considerably!
And that soft thing didn't intend to let Fu Xuan off so easily; it began to rub back and forth on Fu Xuan's head! It was like... petting her head!
After feeling Selene's action, Fu Xuan's pretty face flushed even redder! Her body also trembled slightly uncontrollably!
"This Meow! This Meow was actually petted on the head by a Stupid Cat?! The last time This Meow was petted on the head... was by This Meow's master..."
"Damn it, damn it!!! She actually! She actually!!!"
At the same time, a system notification sound came from Selene's side, indicating that the mission was complete.
Selene's lips curved slightly; this mission's reward was quite important to her!
After all, a fixed six hours of transformation time every day meant she didn't have to stay in cat form daily to save time.
As long as she wanted to, she could transform into human form and move around every day, and there were more things she could do!
As for petting Fu Xuan's head, Selene purely thought about it from a girl's perspective.
If a girl is petted on the head in front of someone she knows, some girls would feel embarrassed, as for others... a fist would already be flying, run away, you idiot!
(Special reminder: for plot purposes, not guaranteed to be true, use with caution.)
..."How long do you plan to pet This Meow's head?"
When Fu Xuan said this, Selene could clearly feel that she was angry!
So, Selene moved her cat paw away without hesitation and began to act cute and beg for forgiveness!
"Hmph! Do you think? This Meow will forgive you just because you act cute? You're not allowed to eat the food This Meow makes tonight!"
Fu Xuan snorted coldly, saying unhappily.
Hearing this, Selene instantly became anxious!
How can she not eat?! This Meow will starve to death!
Selene quickly extended a small paw and placed it on the back of Fu Xuan's hand, showing a pitiful, remorseful expression, and her meows turned into a soft "meow-woo."
"Hmph!"
Fu Xuan gave an arrogant cold snort, but she didn't continue to be angry. Instead, she reached out and pinched Selene's cat face, then pinched her ears and nose.
Selene didn't resist. It wasn't that she didn't dare; the main reason was that she wanted to use this method to coax Fu Xuan into happiness! Absolutely not because she didn't dare!
...After dinner, Fu Xuan and Selene went to bed early, preparing to rest early.
After all, both the person and the cat had played all day and were a bit tired.
But before sleeping, Fu Xuan hugged Selene and petted her for a while, only then falling asleep contentedly.
The next day, the sun was already hanging in the sky, and a ray of sunlight shone through the curtains onto Fu Xuan's pretty face.
It was already ten in the morning, but neither Selene nor Fu Xuan had any intention of getting up; both were still sleeping in bed.
Lying in bed was practically commonplace for Selene.
After all, she was a cat now, so sleeping a bit longer was very normal.
But Fu Xuan lying in bed was truly rare; in fact, in the past, when Selene wasn't around, Fu Xuan would even work overtime on weekends!
...It wasn't until noon that Selene crawled out of the warm covers.
After stretching on the floor, she realized that Fu Xuan was still sleeping!
Selene couldn't help but find it strange; normally, Fu Xuan would get up at six o'clock, when it wasn't even light yet!
But now, it was already twelve noon, and Fu Xuan was still sleeping!
When Fu Xuan wakes up, This Meow will definitely have a good laugh at her!
After another ten minutes, Selene noticed something was wrong, because Fu Xuan still showed no signs of waking up, and she was frowning, looking very pained!
"Meow? (Grand Diviner adult, what's wrong?)"
Selene jumped to Fu Xuan's side, asking anxiously, while extending a paw to pat Fu Xuan's shoulder.
Hearing the sound, Fu Xuan slowly opened her eyes and looked at Selene in front of her.
Seeing Little one's worried expression, Fu Xuan forced a smile, reached out and patted Little one's head, signaling for her not to worry!
