Chapter 8

The golden tiger and the brown bear faced each other for a few minutes, though neither of them had any intention of fighting.

The golden tiger’s action of blocking the brown bear was actually a spur-of-the-moment decision.

He had already given up, after all—The little white cat liked the brown bear. But when he saw the brown bear happily carrying the little cat in his arms, heading upstairs, something inside him suddenly felt upset.

So he stood up and blocked him.

What was he going to do by blocking him? Fighting was out of the question. This wasn’t the right place, and it would scare the little cat.

But if they didn’t fight, was he supposed to let them go to the room to sleep together?

The brown bear was all black and shaggy—what was so attractive about that? Shouldn’t the golden tiger’s golden fur be more appealing?

The golden tiger stood silently in front of the brown bear, while the brown bear, still holding the little white cat, wouldn’t budge.

As fierce beasts, they couldn’t back down in front of the little white cat!

Once they backed down, they would no longer be fierce beasts in front of the little white cat or all the viewers—they would just be weak beasts!

At this moment, The little white cat looked up at the golden tiger, her emerald-colored eyes full of confusion.

“Meow?”

Qing Liu: “A good dogs don’t block the way!”

Three legs must be free to walk, so why get in the way for no reason?

The golden tiger looked at the little white cat, hearing her soft and delicate “meow” and seeing her tired, teary eyes. His heart instantly softened.

Finally, he stepped aside, allowing the brown bear to take the little white cat upstairs.

Live Stream chat:

【Hahahahahahaha, did you bring a translator? The little white cat is so bold, hahahahahaha.】

【What did she say? What did she say? Tell us!】

【The little white cat said, ‘A good dogs don’t block the way,’ hahahahahaha.】

【Holy crap, the golden tiger didn’t understand, but he stepped aside!】

【I love the little cat’s personality! She must be very likable, so she definitely isn’t a controversial guest!】

【Exactly! So everyone, don’t hesitate, go for it! She’s definitely not going to collapse!】

I have to say, The little white cat’s appearance and “meow” are really deceptive.

If the viewers didn’t have a language translator, they’d probably be charmed by her soft, delicate meow.

Both the golden tiger and the brown bear were completely smitten at this moment. The brown bear knew the little white cat was tired, so he quickly took her upstairs, chose a room with plenty of sunlight, and carried her with one arm while arranging her little bed with the other.

Her sleeping bed was pink, and the brown bear thoughtfully laid a soft blanket in it. He even put a small plush cat toy, about the size of his palm, in the bed.

Finally, the brown bear placed the little bed at the head of the bed and lay down on the bed, carefully settling the little white cat into the soft, comfortable bed.

Qing Liu watched the brown bear do all of this, and the entire cat was shocked.

She had already thought that the fluffy creatures here were quite intelligent, showing love for one another, knowing how to sit at the table to eat, and even fetching food for her.

But now, do they even know how to make a bed?

Pets are even sleeping on the beds humans sleep on? What’s going on? Do these pets actually have their own private rooms and beds?

Qing Liu crouched in the cat bed, looking at the brown bear, who was lying on the bed, staring at her without blinking, feeling quite conflicted.

So, what kind of world is this?

Could it be that there are no humans, and this is actually an animal world?

Qing Liu was startled by her own thoughts.

Although she had a rich imagination, she still hadn’t thought about it in terms of beastmen.

The little white cat comfortably lay down in the cat bed and, feeling a bit bored, scratched at the small plush toy. The brown bear stayed by her side, lying next to her, with no intention of leaving or sleeping.

Qing Liu didn’t ask him to leave, she thought, maybe this room was meant to be shared between the brown bear and herself?

However, it didn’t take long before both of them started to feel something was off.

The brown bear turned his head, and to his surprise, the door that had been clearly closed earlier was now open. A massive tiger head had appeared, glaring at the two of them with intense focus.

The brown bear: “……”

Live Stream:

【Hahahaha, the bear is really slow to react, the lonely tiger has been here for a while now!】

【The bear’s inner world is collapsing!】

【The golden-haired tiger is blatantly peeking and is eager to join in!】

【Wait, does this ‘^[1]“P” in that context likely refers to “premium content” or “paywall.” In the setting of live streams or shows, the letter “P” could be shorthand for … Continue readingP’ mean we can watch it without paying?】

The fluffy creatures sharing a room are actually meant to foster their relationships. Each of them has their own live broadcast ball, which follows them around, so there’s no problem with them sleeping in the same room.

However, THREE together? That’s a problem!

As the “main partner,” The brown bear was genuinely annoyed with the golden-haired tiger. He got up from the bed, walked over aggressively, and then let out a loud “ROAR,” shouting at the golden-haired tiger.

The golden-haired tiger stood expressionless, waiting for him to finish roaring. Then, with his massive body, he shoved past the brown bear and, still expressionless, jumped onto the large bed. He lay down beside the little white cat, just like the brown bear had, and fixed his golden eyes on her without blinking.

The little white cat: “……”

The brown bear: “……”

Production Team: “……”

“Director… director…”

The staff member was somewhat speechless: “What do we do if they don’t follow the program’s flow? If this goes on, it’s going to get out of hand.”

Director: “……”

Director Zhang Song sighed helplessly: “Forget it, let them be. We’ve gotten used to it anyway.”

Because they were all fluffy creatures, their communication wasn’t like humans who talk to each other. Although the production team provided guidance and assigned tasks, most of the time, the fluffy creatures didn’t pay much attention to the crew.

However, in past seasons, while some fluffy creatures ignored the rules and didn’t listen to the crew, this was the first time a creature like the golden-haired tiger blatantly fought for a female guest, even barging into a couple’s room that had already been paired, preparing for a three-way, so to speak!

Not just the crew, even the audience was stunned!

The hashtag #StealingLoveByForce# even trended on social media.

“Destined Match” had only aired for one day, and it already made two trending topics, something the production team didn’t expect.

As for the center of the storm, The little white cat, she had no idea what was going on. She suspiciously looked at the golden-haired tiger, who was lying next to her little bed, thinking to herself, ‘This room couldn’t possibly be his too, right?’

Her owner was so rich, the villa was so big, there was no reason for three pets to squeeze into one room!

If it were the brown bear and the little cat, she could understand that, but the brown bear and the golden-haired tiger? That just didn’t make sense—one room couldn’t hold two fierce creatures!

The little white cat stared at the golden-haired tiger, and he stared right back at her.

As the two fluffy creatures faced off, suddenly, the golden-haired tiger raised his paw and gently placed it on the little white cat’s head.

The little white cat, who had been pressed down by him before, was immediately on alert. Her fur stood on end, and she arched her back, baring her teeth and claws, emitting a warning growl, “Awooo awooo” from her throat.

The golden-haired tiger’s paw stopped right at the entrance of her little bed.

His paw was so big that it perfectly fit into the cat bed, and neither the audience nor the brown bear knew what was happening—they only knew that the little cat was meowing urgently and fiercely.

Meanwhile, the golden-haired tiger’s paw was inside the cat bed.

The brown bear, already angry, was even more enraged now.

He let out a furious roar and charged over, intending to toss the golden-haired tiger out.

The golden-haired tiger had already prepared for this. To avoid disturbing the little cat, he quickly picked up the cat bed with his mouth, and in one swift motion, jumped off the bed.

The large brown bear slammed onto the bed, and the wide bed groaned under the impact, making a “crack” sound, as if a part of it had snapped.

The brown bear rolled around on the bed for a moment. When he finally managed to get up, he realized his little cat was gone!

That was his crush!

And she had just been taken away by that scoundrel!

The golden-haired tiger, however, didn’t actually leave with the little cat. It was just that the brown bear had been too impulsive, even breaking the bed. Concerned that the little cat might be frightened, the golden-haired tiger took her to the next room instead.

In the next room, there were already occupants.

The panda and the fire fox were cozily snuggling on the bed, ignoring the production team’s task and planning to spend the night together. But as soon as the door opened, the golden-haired tiger entered, holding the little white cat’s bed in his mouth.

The panda: “???”

The fire fox: “……”

The audience in the live stream was going wild at this point.

【Ahhhhh, what does this mean? What does “孤寡虎” (Lonely tiger) even mean?】

【I thought the ultimate move was the brown bear trying to steal the love under the claws, but what’s going on? Does this mean the golden-haired tiger wants it all?】

【Emmmmmm… Why not? Anyway, none of the female guests have objected.】

【I have a feeling this episode of ‘Destined Match’ is going to blow up.】

【To be honest, doesn’t anyone think the golden-haired tiger’s behavior is a bit much? This is a dating show, right? Since the little cat chose the brown bear, why is he trying to steal her? The little cat is a girl, not some object! She should be allowed to choose for herself!】

【Exactly, the little cat chose the brown bear, so what’s the golden-haired tiger trying to do?】

Seeing the audience in the live stream getting into a heated debate, the production team started to get a bit anxious.

One of the staff members asked Director Zhang Song, “Director, should we contact the golden-haired tiger?”

Zhang Song looked at the live stream with a somewhat complicated expression.

Some of the production staff were unaware of the guests’ true identities.

However, Zhang Song knew. When he selected these six guests, his biggest concern had been the little white cat Qing Liu, since she was an unpopular 18th-tier celebrity who had been heavily criticized online due to her controversial persona and being used for hype. Based on his understanding of her, Zhang Song was worried she might cause trouble on his show.

His next concern was Xue Ying, the “ordinary person” with a high position, worried that Xue Ying’s aloofness would clash with the furry guests on the show.

The guests he trusted the most were the golden-haired tiger and the panda.

In his mind, these two would definitely never cause trouble and would cooperate with the production team to complete the tasks.

In the end, the person who caused the most trouble for him was the one he trusted the most.

Zhang Song looked at the live stream, watching as the golden-haired tiger grabbed the little white cat’s bed with his mouth, jumped out of the brown bear’s room, and then turned and entered the panda and the fire fox’s room next door.

Zhang Song paused for a moment, then said, “No need to worry, let’s wait and see. Mr. Han should not be the type of person who lacks restraint.”

The assistant director standing beside Zhang Song thought to himself: If Han Luofeng had restraint, he wouldn’t be constantly going to extreme survival challenges or exploring dangerous jungles everywhere.

It was precisely because Han Luofeng lacked restraint and was so indifferent to the people around him that he ended up being sent to this dating reality show by the Han family’s joint talent agency.

If it weren’t for his injury, maybe even with the pressure from the Han family, he wouldn’t have agreed to come.

Looking at the chaotic live stream, the staff members started to feel nervous.

“Destined Match” was a furry dating show, and in the early stages, it was live streamed. After the live stream, an edited version would be released, and there would be professional commentators.

Given the current situation in the live stream, the production staff could already foresee how the hosts would comment on the events later on.

And at the center of this storm, the little white cat, who had stirred up such chaos, was completely unaware, looking like an innocent bystander. She was being carried by the golden-haired tiger into the next room, and to everyone’s surprise, she wasn’t angry or upset at all. In fact, she excitedly meowed twice, then jumped straight into the panda’s arms.

The audience: “……”

These furries… their relationships are… a bit messy.
