Description
Yu Tao has secretly admired her little senior sect brother for a long time. Her little senior brother, Yu Li, is as cool and aloof as jade, indifferent to others and keeping his distance, yet he’s unusually gentle and caring toward her, a new sect member, showering her with special attention—basically a double standard. Hopelessly romantic, Yu Tao is over the moon: Isn’t this the perfect mutual love story? Until one day, she suddenly learns that she’s actually a stand-in for the heroine in a tragic romance novel set in the cultivation world, and Yu Li is the male lead. His kindness toward her is merely because she somewhat resembles the real heroine. That very night, Yu Tao gets drunk and spends the entire evening cursing him as a s*umbag. After sobering up, she vows to lock her heart away and never look at Yu Li again. After a few months of avoiding him, Yu Li finally corners her at the door. The young man lowers his gaze, following behind her like an abandoned cat. His fingers tightly grip her wrist, not letting her leave, yet he says nothing, simply holding on. Unable to shake him off, Yu Tao adopts a sarcastic tone. “Little Senior Brother, why are you looking for me? That portrait hidden in your room—who is it, really? Don’t tell me, don’t tell me… it’s me, is it?” The moment she finishes speaking, the aloof young man’s pale ears flush red, and his voice comes out awkward and stiff. “…How did you know?” Eh, what, huh!?

After Being Secretly Loved by a Tsundere Cat Review & Spoilers - Novel Translator
My Thoughts on After Being Secretly Loved by a Tsundere Cat
"After Being Secretly Loved by a Tsundere Cat" promised a fluffy, lighthearted read, and for the most part, it delivered. With a blend of xianxia, romance, and a healthy dose of comedy, it's a novel that's easy to pick up and enjoy. I went in expecting a sweet story, and I wasn't disappointed.
First Impressions
The premise alone is enough to draw you in: a female protagonist navigating a cultivation world while being secretly adored by a tsundere cat-turned-human. The initial chapters were charming and quickly established the dynamic between the leads. I found myself chuckling at the protagonist's shameless antics and the male lead's reluctant affection. It's the kind of story that makes you want to curl up with a warm drink and escape for a few hours.
What Works Well
The "human-nonhuman relationship" aspect is handled well, providing plenty of opportunities for comedic misunderstandings and heartwarming moments. The cultivation elements are present but not overly complex, making it accessible to readers who aren't deeply invested in the xianxia genre. I appreciated that the main characters were relatively straightforward and not bogged down by excessive stupidity, which can sometimes plague these types of stories. The female lead's personality shines, making her both relatable and entertaining. The overall cuteness factor is definitely a major draw, and the romance, while slow-burn, is ultimately satisfying. The blend of elemental magic and martial spirits adds a layer of intrigue to the world-building, even if it's not the primary focus.
Areas of Concern
While the main story is complete, I definitely felt a pang of wanting more. Side stories exploring their life after the main events, like their wedding or the arrival of children, would have been a welcome addition. The ending felt a little abrupt, leaving me craving more glimpses into their future. Depending on your location, accessing the full novel might be costly.
Final Verdict
Overall, "After Being Secretly Loved by a Tsundere Cat" is a delightful read for anyone looking for a lighthearted and charming story with a unique premise. The blend of comedy, romance, and cultivation, coupled with the endearing characters, makes it a worthwhile escape. While I wished for more content and acknowledge that accessibility might be an issue for some, I still recommend giving this novel a try if you're in the mood for something sweet and fun.
