Shi Xiaowang transmigrated—into an unknown interstellar era. He became the orphaned heir of a duke, only to be schemed against by a distant relative who had taken over his identity. His two “choices”: marry the bloodthirsty and merciless Federal Marshal… or marry the lecherous, perverted president of the Chamber of Commerce.
Shi Xiaowang decisively choose the Marshal.
Merciless is fine—merciless is still better than perverted.
However, after entering the Marshal’s mansion, he discovered… there was no Marshal—only a majestic, awe-inspiring lion.
Majestic, yes—but also extremely lazy and fond of sleep.
Having inherited the plant-type mental power of his body’s original owner, and possessing a self-born purification ability, Shi Xiaowang began to study catnip, thinking perhaps it could get the lion’s attention.
The first time— The great lion looked at him twice.
The second time— The lion pinned him down on the carpet and rubbed against him.
The third time— The Marshal himself appeared…
It was said that the bloodthirsty Marshal held Shi Xiaowang, who was still clutching the catnip, and said with dark, smoldering eyes:
“You smell… really good.”
Shi Xiaowang: “???”
In the Federation, everyone adored the old Marshal. Everyone believed he would lead them to victory against the Zerg.
But when victory finally came, news spread that the old Marshal had fallen. His successor—the new Marshal—was his adopted son, and also the one who had killed him.
From that moment, Jian Mo was branded as “bloodthirsty” and “heartless.”
Everyone hated him—including Jian Mo himself, who was on the verge of mental collapse.
He refused meaningless treatment, keeping his consciousness alive only through his spirit form, waiting for the end.
Agreeing to the engagement with the young duke was merely because he pitied the fragile youth caught in a desperate situation—protecting him for a while would at least do some good.
Yet unexpectedly, that supposedly fragile boy lived like a bright, resilient little sun. He purified the pollution that had plagued the Federation for centuries and made flowers bloom once again across the stars.
He brought new hope to everyone— Including Jian Mo.
Epilogue:
That day, when Shi Xiaowang couldn’t get out of bed, two questions kept circling in his mind:
- Was the catnip he grew that potent? How could it make someone go crazy for a whole night?
- And—why would a human react to catnip? What kind of species was he, exactly?!
Until one day, while teasing the lion again with catnip, Shi Xiaowang realized something was… off with the texture under his hand.
Jian Mo smiled: “Hey, wife~”
Shi Xiaowang: “…Hey your grandpa!”
Jian Mo rolled over: “Not grandpa—hey, wife.”
