Today, Please Continue Pretending to Be Human (AHTT)
今天也请好好装人 | NOVELUPDATES
Description:
He had spent two lifetimes as a pet cat. Later, thanks to a streak of bad luck, his cultivation suddenly skyrocketed and he transformed into a human. Left with no choice, he worked hard, starved constantly, and tried his absolute best to pretend to be a person.
However, being human was so hard.
Pinyin was impossible to learn. He couldn’t get used to the nine-key keyboard or the twenty-six-key one, so every sentence he typed was full of typos. Math was impossible too. He wanted to buy one jin of sticky rice cake, but he didn’t know how much a jin actually was. He got tricked into buying three and a half jin, and the shopkeeper even shorted him sixty cents.
He really, truly wanted to stay a cat forever, spending every day scratching curtains, clawing at the floor, staring at little birds flying past the window, and waiting for humans to come home and praise him for being the cutest kitty in the whole world.
Sang Zhao let out a long sigh, clamped his computer bag under his arm, gnawed on his sandwich, and returned to his workstation. He awkwardly fished out his mouse.
His ears twitched. He sharply heard a human behind him say he was a “connection hire.”
He pulled out his phone and, with expert speed, opened Baidu and typed a rapid string of typos.

In order to boost the company’s public image, Tang Yu decided to do some charity work.
He signed an agreement with an official agency, stating that his company would accept a few special individuals into their workforce. In simple terms, they were called “connection hires.”
But… this was a little too special, wasn’t it?
Walking into the office, he saw an employee using his hands to walk and his feet to hold an umbrella.
Taking the elevator, he bumped into a salesman elegantly wiping away the blood at the corner of his mouth.
Confused but trying to stay professional, he began his workday, only to see the new assistant coming in with a laptop balanced on top of his head, swaying as he walked. The moment he opened his mouth, he started meowing.
Tang Yu: …Ooh.
Young people should be a little unhinged. A little unhinged is good. Clap clap!
Later, Tang Yu pinched the philtrum beneath his nose and let out a sharp, piercing shriek.
“Why is everyone in my company pretending to be human?! If you’re going to pretend, at least do a proper job. Sang Zhao, stop climbing the wallpaper. Get down from the ceiling immediately!”

③ Rewrote the synopsis, but it’s still a story about a little cat and a domineering CEO. The previous entry point was too awkward to write; this new angle flows much better. Long live little kitties!
