Chapter 1
“Destined Match” is a dating reality show with loyal fans numbering in the billions, and it has swept the entire galaxy.
What makes this show so captivating is that all the guests participate in animal form, and neither the audience nor the guests know each other’s real identities. The guests invited to the show come from a wide range of backgrounds, including possible wealthy tycoons or film emperors, as well as lesser-known or ordinary people.
The most exciting part comes on the seventh day of the show, when there is a task to transform into human form and confess to one’s crush using their true identity.
Since no one knows each other’s real identity, the contestants must rely on the six days spent interacting in animal form to understand each other’s character and morals. It’s like opening a mystery box: if the person is good and both feel a spark, they are likely to hold hands successfully.
Even if they can’t hold hands, they part ways regretfully but in a friendly manner.
Of course, the show has aired over a hundred episodes, and there have been several occasions where the person confessing, after seeing their crush’s true identity, or the one being confessed to, after learning the identity of the person who sent them flowers, has regretted it on the spot and turned them down.
Although these incidents are rare, they do happen, and each time it does, “Destined Match” becomes a hot topic.
This is the biggest draw of the show, and while it has received mixed reviews over the years, the sheer number of viewers who enjoy watching the drama unfold has kept it popular.
As a result, the show continues to grow in popularity, and over the past few years, several couples formed on the show have gone on to get married.
And today marks the first day of the latest season of “Destined Match” being broadcast live.
Before the live broadcast even started, billions of interstellar viewers were already waiting in the live stream room, eagerly anticipating the beginning of the show.
Some people asked:
【I heard this time the production team is going all out again, inviting some controversial guests, is that true?】
【Laughing out loud, when hasn’t the show had controversial guests? The confession segment’s explosive moments are all thanks to them, okay?】
【I think my brother is also participating in this dating show. Now I’m really worried he’ll fall for a bad person.】
【Exactly, can’t the production team at least give us a little hint? So annoying!】
【Wait, is there a possibility that the guests already know each other’s identities, and what we’re seeing on the live stream is just part of the script?】
【No way, watch a few more episodes and you’ll see, the guests really don’t know each other’s identities.】
Even before the broadcast began, the viewers in the live stream room had already started discussing passionately.
Although the identities of the guests are not publicly revealed, and even during the recording of the show, the guests sign contracts promising not to disclose any details about the live broadcast schedule, the production team also keeps their real identities under wraps unless necessary.
Everything is set up to pave the way for the key segment later in the live broadcast—when the guests transform into human form and confess their feelings.
However, some celebrity teams still secretly leak a little information to their fans, and even some lesser-known celebrities who didn’t get to participate in the show will release vague messages to stir up attention.
After all, “Destined Match” is just too popular. While the show may have its flaws, everyone wants to be a part of it.
Most people know that confessions come with risks, so unless there’s a genuine spark, very few are willing to try the “blind box” style confession.
【Here it comes! The live broadcast is starting!】
【Ahhhh, I’m so excited! Let me see which fierce beasts are on the show!】
For this three-day indoor live broadcast of “Destined Match,” the chosen location is the famous Sky City in the central district of the main star.
Sky City can be considered a hub for the wealthy of the main star. The entire floating city hovers above the central district, and access requires flying vehicles. The defense system here is the most advanced in the entire galaxy. Not only ordinary people but even many upper-class individuals can’t afford to buy a single house there.
“Destined Match” has chosen this luxurious location as their filming venue, and many people are watching the live stream just to catch a glimpse of Sky City.
This time, there are six guests in total—three men and three women—who have already checked into the villa arranged by the production team a day in advance.
In addition to the main live stream room, each guest also has their own individual live stream room.
As the main live stream room officially opens, the six guests’ live stream rooms gradually become available as well.
The viewers are gathered in the main live stream room, and the camera is set indoors. They follow the main camera’s view, scanning around the spacious house.
【Hmm? Why aren’t there any furry ones?】
【Where are the six furry ones? Aren’t they in the house?】
【Ahhh, I see one! What’s that? A white cat!】
In the main shot, a small white cat ran out from the corner, but at first, its movements were a bit clumsy. Its back legs kept stepping on its front legs, and it kept tripping after taking just a few steps.
The little white cat seemed completely dazed by its own falls. It rolled around on the floor, then sat up, shook its face, and stretched its front paws out, lowering its head to look around. The cat just froze in place, not moving for a long moment.
In a scene where there were many fierce beasts but few cute pet-like beastmen, this little cat instantly melted the hearts of the viewers in the live stream room.
【Ah, is this a still image?】
【Haha, I thought my stream froze, but it’s not?】
【The cat is so cute! So white and soft, aaaaah!】
【The person above is being creepy, reported! Dog head jpg.】
【Does anyone know whose beast form is a little white cat? Can someone decode it?】
【Haven’t heard, please decode! I’ve followed a controversial guest, and now I’m scared, waaaah.】
—
The little white cat was the first furry guest to appear, and viewers had already started attempting to decode its real identity. After all, as a small, fluffy beast, it was quite rare in the entertainment industry, let alone the entire galaxy.
As people’s psychic powers grew stronger and more powerful, the descendants of beastmen also became stronger, with most being large, fierce beasts. Small, cute, fluffy ones were becoming increasingly rare.
No matter how the viewers reacted, at this moment, Qing Liu—oh no, the entire cat—was in a dazed state.
One moment, she was playing a healer in an apocalypse survival game, tending to injured players, and the next moment, she found herself in this luxurious mansion, covered in soft fur with four tiny pink paws.
The floor was so clean it looked like a mirror, and whenever she lowered her head, she could see her own reflection.
A small, and adorable white cat with pink tips on her nose, ears, and paws. Her eyes were a bright emerald green, sparkling with a cute and elegant charm.
What breed of cat is this?
Qing Liu had never seen such a breed before and had no idea what kind of cat she had turned into. But one thing was certain: her owner, the one who took care of her, was incredibly rich!
And very, very rich!
Just look at this luxurious mansion! Being cared for by such a wealthy owner and being treated so well—it was a thousand times better than when she was in that survival game!
Qing Liu quickly accepted her new identity and was even quite excited about it.
She carefully took a few steps with her short little legs, starting to explore the mansion.
The mansion was enormous. Just going upstairs and downstairs would likely take her at least an hour to fully explore.
As she adjusted her walking posture to get more comfortable on four legs, she took a few more steps forward, and suddenly, she froze!
Her right front paw was slightly lifted, her tail arched high, and the whole cat just stood still, motionless.
The viewers, watching from a close-up perspective, could see the cat’s expression clearly.
The little cat’s pink mouth was slightly open, and her emerald eyes were wide with shock, staring blankly out the window.
【Ah, is it frozen again?】
【Waaah, the cat’s shocked look is so cute! I just want to pick her up and snuggle her!】
【She’s really going to melt my heart! I hope she’s not a controversial guest, or I’m going to lose it, waaaah.】
【By the way, what exactly did the cat see? Did she spot another guest?】
—
Qing Liu wanted to ask that too!
Just look at what she saw!
She saw a panda!
A live one!
The cat was stunned for a while, before slowly crawling forward, tiptoeing toward the open door. Since she didn’t know she was live streaming on a dating show, she had no idea that her clumsy, adorable crawl was being watched by viewers across the entire galaxy!
Qing Liu cautiously crawled to the door, finally getting a close-up view of the panda!
It was a real panda! A living, breathing panda!
The panda was sitting on the lounge chair by the door, basking in the sunlight, holding a bamboo shoot in its paws! There was even a camera in front of it!
Aaaaah, the panda was doing an eating broadcast!
While Qing Liu was staring at the panda, she didn’t notice the small flying camera hovering above her head, following her movements.
Qing Liu was completely stunned by the panda, its fur gleaming and sleek.
She slowly moved to a spot about two meters away from the panda, standing there with her mouth agape, watching the panda peel the bamboo shoot and eat.
Looking at the lounge chair, the bamboo shoot, and the panda’s satisfied expression, Qing Liu understood—her owner didn’t have just her as a pet!
They had a second one, maybe even a third!
Her owner could even afford to keep a panda! This must be the wealthiest person in the entire galaxy!
Since she had human consciousness, rounding it up, her owner’s pets were also her pets, so this panda was hers!
Once she thought of this, Qing Liu’s whole cat body seemed to jump with excitement.
Barrage screen:
【Wait, isn’t the show’s initial task always to invite someone to eat as a way to select an initial crush?】
【Aaaah, this little cat isn’t planning to go after the panda, is she? They’re both female guests!】
【Emmmm, though the show didn’t specify that you have to eat with someone of the opposite sex.】
【Ah, the cat might just be curious. She didn’t invite the panda to eat, and besides, the panda is also cute!】
—
The viewers in the live stream were somewhat amused—could this be the new trick for ‘Destined Match’?
However, ‘Destined Match’ typically features heterosexual pairings, with three men and three women as guests. If the show featured same-sex pairings, those guests would probably appear on other dating shows, as each dating show has its own specific format.
So, the viewers thought the cat must just want to be friends with the panda.
Just as the viewers began to think they were overthinking things, the little white cat suddenly stood up, took one step, then another, carefully walking toward the panda.
The panda, named Luo Yun, was a very popular singing star. She had already noticed the little white cat and was planning to greet it friendly, especially since they would be living together for the next seven days.
But for some reason, the cat just stood there, staring at her without moving for a long time.
The panda, feeling a bit suspicious, kept eating her bamboo shoots. She had been so busy that she hadn’t had a chance to eat until now, and her manager had prepared a lot of fresh bamboo shoots for her. Just as she started eating, though, the little white cat started staring at her.
While continuing to nibble on the bamboo, the panda noticed the cat getting closer out of the corner of her eye. When the cat finally approached, the panda paused her eating, stretched out her paw, and gently patted the cat’s head to signal her friendly gesture.
