Chapter 9

The audience in the live stream was arguing fiercely, but the two main parties at the center of the drama were calmly and naturally settling into the panda and the fire fox’s room.

The little white cat, although she liked the brown bear, she actually liked the panda even more.

No one could resist the panda!

So, without hesitation, she climbed into the panda’s arms and even casually ruffled the fire fox’s head.

The golden-haired tiger, on the other hand, knew there were two female guests in the room. He deliberately brought the little white cat here.

He wasn’t trying to steal the brown bear’s CP (couple pairing) but felt that, since this was only the first day of meeting each other and they weren’t familiar yet, it would be inappropriate for the little white cat to sleep in the same room as the brown bear.

The golden-haired tiger thought about it and felt more and more that it wasn’t right.

Especially after he crouched by the door and saw the brown bear lying on the bed, staring intently at the little white cat who was peacefully sleeping, it felt even more inappropriate!

Of course, he wouldn’t admit it was jealousy, jealousy that the brown bear had earned the little white cat’s “affection.”

The little white cat ignored the golden-haired tiger. She even intentionally walked with three legs in front of him to mock him, refusing the food he offered.

But then she turned around and cozied up to the brown bear, acting cute and playful. Whatever the brown bear gave her, she ate without hesitation. Now, she was even planning to sleep in the same room with the brown bear, forming an initial couple pairing.

The golden-haired tiger felt a pang of jealousy. The more he thought about it, the more he couldn’t allow the little white cat to sleep with the brown bear. So he decided to take her out of there.

Look at how well-behaved and harmonious the panda and the fire fox were!

They didn’t even say they wanted to sleep in the same room with the snow eagle, whom they had just met. Why couldn’t they be as sensible as those two?

The little white cat should learn a thing or two from them.

After placing the little white cat next to the panda and the fire fox, the golden-haired tiger turned around very gentlemanly, walked out of the room steadily on all four legs, and casually shut the door behind him.

The panda & the fire fox: “……”

The two furry ladies exchanged a glance, then looked at the little white cat happily rolling around in the panda’s arms. They felt a little complicated.

They had thought that the little white cat and the brown bear had developed a mutual liking. They also assumed the golden-haired tiger and the brown bear would have a big fight, and even thought that the golden-haired tiger wanted to snatch the little white cat so they could sleep in the same room and form a “double cat CP” (couple pairing), after all, a tiger is a big cat, right?

The audience’s thoughts were exactly the same as the two furry ladies’.

Just a moment ago, the viewers were arguing fiercely in the live chat, cursing the golden-haired tiger for being shameless and forcing the little white cat, and now, they were all speechless.

【Hmm, so… can someone analyze the golden-haired tiger’s thought process?】

【So, his goal in doing this is to have the three beautiful ladies stick together?】

【I thought he wanted to team up with the little white cat? Turns out that’s not the case?】

【Emmmmmm… so why is he doing this? He’s not teaming up with the little white cat, so why is he breaking up the “dumb and sweet CP”?】

【The brown bear is going to cry because he realizes the little white cat doesn’t seem upset…】

【Yeah, The little white cat accepted the brown bear’s candy, food, and invitation to team up. So why, now, is she not only not resisting, but also having fun?】

【This CP is so dumb and innocent, but not really sweet…】

—

Because the golden-haired tiger threw the little white cat into the panda’s arms and shut the door behind him, the viewers stopped cursing him.

Instead, they began to question what the little white cat was actually trying to do.

If you say the little white cat is a “sea king” (someone who flirts with multiple people), deliberately stirring up a rivalry between the male guests, it would make sense. But she didn’t even spare the female guests—she was happily rolling around in the panda’s arms or playing with the fire fox’s tail.

If you say she isn’t a “sea king,” then the current situation is really hard to explain!

Whether the little white cat is a “sea king” or not, the golden-haired tiger felt very relieved about her attitude.

He had actually been worried that the little white cat might get angry and go back to find the brown bear, but that didn’t happen. The little white cat wasn’t upset at all. In fact, she seemed very happy.

The golden-haired tiger felt reassured and thought, ‘As expected, she understands that staying in the same room with a guy she’s just met is really quite special and inappropriate!’

Just as he thought this, and was about to close the door, a pillow hit him square in the face.

The people who come to participate in this dating reality show are all public figures with some level of fame—either celebrities, influencers, or wealthy individuals. Regardless of their manners, reputation is always the top priority.

Fighting in front of billions of viewers in the live stream was simply not an option.

But the golden-haired tiger doesn’t play by the rules!

Not fighting, however, didn’t mean that the brown bear could just let go of his anger!

This was a matter of ‘revenge for a stolen bride’!

Fuming, the brown bear rushed out, thinking that if the golden-haired tiger really wanted to force the little white cat to team up with him, he wouldn’t care about the program or his reputation and would just have to fight him!

But as soon as he came out, he saw the little white cat rolling on the panda’s belly, while the golden-haired tiger had already come out and thoughtfully closed the door behind him.

The brown bear: “……”

Ah, this wasn’t what he had imagined.

For a moment, the brown bear’s mind went blank, but quickly, he snapped out of it. No matter what the little white cat thought, he ‘had’ to let out this frustration!

And he was going to get the little white cat back!

After some quick thinking, he grabbed a pillow and threw it, then stormed toward the door and ‘bang’—he crashed it open.

He was so angry that he didn’t control his strength, forgetting that there were female guests inside, and he should have been a bit more gentlemanly.

When the door slammed open, all three female guests looked up in surprise.

Standing in the doorway, the brown bear’s angry expression froze when he saw the scene inside. He just stood there, silently watching as the little white cat was held in the panda’s arms. Meanwhile, the previously aloof and proud fire fox was snuggling into the panda’s embrace, even using her fluffy tail to tease the little white cat.

It seemed like the brown bear’s sudden appearance had interrupted the ladies’ “fun.”

The brown bear: “……”

The golden-haired tiger slowly followed him, peeking inside. Then he squatted outside the door, calmly watching the brown bear, wearing an expression that clearly said, ‘This isn’t my problem. I’m just an innocent bystander, watching the drama.’

And the live stream audience couldn’t help but feel sorry for the brown bear:

【Look at the brown bear’s confused expression, I just want to hug him.】

【Poor little bear, what can you do? You fell for the heartless “sea king” cat.】

【This episode is so confusing. For the first time, the female guests aren’t competing or scheming against each other, but are hugging and snuggling together.】

【Ah, why don’t we change our perspective? If we treat this like a lesbian reality show, it’s actually really exciting.】

—

Forget the audience, even the brown bear couldn’t help but start to question his life at this point.

Obviously, the little white cat had already chosen him earlier, and she hadn’t changed her mind after entering the room. She was even very happy to sleep in the little cat bed he had prepared for her.

So why the sudden change?

However, after thinking about it carefully, the brown bear could understand.

After all, this was their first day meeting, and generally, CPs formed on the first day aren’t based on affection but just a good first impression, plus some people probably don’t want to be punished by being sent out to hunt in the woods.

The brown bear understood the little white cat’s actions. She didn’t dislike him, and she was so small and weak that she surely didn’t want to go hunting in the wilderness. With her tiny frame, she’d probably be swallowed up by the tall grass.

But still, no matter what, tonight, The little white cat was supposed to sleep with him!

The brown bear’s brows furrowed, and he slowly moved into the room with a bit of reluctance. The three fluffy ladies were lying on the bed, and he couldn’t just barge in. So, he sat down on the sofa on the other side, his dark eyes filled with a pitiful look as he gazed at the little white cat.

Meanwhile, the little white cat was nestled comfortably in the panda’s soft, fluffy arms, already snoring peacefully.

The little white cat was sleeping soundly, and the fire fox had her head resting on the panda’s belly, snuggling closely to the little white cat. She only gave the brown bear a fleeting glance before closing her eyes to rest.

The panda, holding both of them, glanced at the brown bear’s pitiful gaze and was momentarily speechless.

However, she quickly realized: what does this have to do with her?

She was just an innocent bystander!

Forget it, time to sleep. The panda had originally been sitting up against the pillow, but now she reached out a paw to set the light to nightlight mode, then slowly laid down, holding both fluffy ones.

Today was exhausting, and tomorrow she had to go hunting in the woods—just thinking about it felt so tough.

The panda had no intention of waking the little white cat. The three fluffy ladies snuggled together and fell asleep like that.

The brown bear: “……”

The brown bear couldn’t fall asleep, but he didn’t want to wake up the little white cat either.

He paced back and forth a couple of times, becoming more and more irritated. Just as he was about to turn around and storm out to find the golden tiger for a fight, he turned and saw the golden tiger shamelessly walking in and directly lying down on the very sofa he had just been resting on.

The sofa was big and spacious, but when the huge golden tiger lay down, he completely occupied the whole thing.

The brown bear: “???”

He looked at the large bed, then glanced at the sofa. What was this supposed to mean?

Was he not even allowed to sleep on the sofa anymore?

The golden tiger’s tail swished lazily, then hung down to sweep the floor as he glanced at the brown bear.

The meaning in that look was very clear.

There’s no room left—either leave, or sleep on the floor.

The brown bear: “!!!”

The brown bear angrily stormed over in a few steps, his belly shaking with each stride due to his hasty movements.

The golden tiger lay still, his golden eyes glowing faintly in the night light, alert and watching the brown bear closely. Anyone who knew him well could tell that he was on high alert.

However, before the brown bear could take two steps, he collided with the table in front of the sofa. The table was made of wood, and the loud, jarring sound it made as it was knocked caused a commotion.

The panda, who had been lying on the bed, immediately lifted her head and glared at him with sharp eyes.

The brown bear: “……”

The panda was cuddling the little white cat and the fire fox, and those two were sleeping soundly like pigs, completely unaffected by the noise.

The brown bear’s frustration instantly deflated. He gave a pitiful glance at the little white cat, who was snoring away, before heading to another corner to sleep on the floor.

Live Stream Chat:

【……】

【For a moment, I don’t know whether to feel sorry for the brown bear or admire golden tiger’s cunning.】

【The golden tiger is a bit clever! The brown bear definitely can’t compete with him!】

【Ahhh, the snow eagle’s here too! What’s he doing, joining in the fun? There’s no space left!】

【Hmm, but there’s still the ceiling.】

—

As everything inside the room fell silent again, the snow eagle, who had been watching the entire scene from outside the window, felt that he couldn’t be left out.

He also believed that he had a huge advantage for the upcoming jungle hunting trip. After all, he could fly, and in the open grasslands, he could easily catch prey.

If the little white cat wanted to find a teammate, he was a strong contender.

So, the snow eagle flew in through the window and perched on the high chandelier.
