cat vs bug

This Omega is Sweet & Wild - I cringed a bit writing out that title, but this novel has been a real charmer. Li Cheng (champion swimmer, school tyrant, omega) meets Xiao Yiheng (campus god, secret artist, pride of his all-alpha family) and sparks fly- reluctantly, and later obliviously (it’s a slow burn). It’s made me laugh more times than I can count, and given me an endless appetite for citrus puns.

“Finally caught you two with great difficulty. Quickly go, go back and call him out for me.” Hu ge grabbed Yan Jing by his collar, wanting to pick him up just like in the movies. He didn’t expect that although Yan Jing looked short, he was actually like a cat: The more he lifted Yan Jing up, the taller Yan Jing became.

Fight the Landlord, Fall in Love - a modern story by the author of Golden Stage. I was so sorry to finish this one, mainly because it means there’s nothing else by this author for me to read. It’s not as strong a showing as their other work, but they have such a talent for writing established relationships. Every chapter made me smile.

“But this place is pretty nice, it’s quiet.” Sun Zinan’s tone changed. “After I retire, I’ll buy a small building here and live in seclusion.”

Tang Kai, “Live in seclusion with the giant moths?”

Sun Zinan put his phone down. “Professor Tang, I’m warning you, if you say anything else I’m going to hit you.”

“You don’t have to be afraid of bugs.” Tang Kai smiled indifferently. “As long as you bring me along to live in seclusion with you.”
