After transmigrating into the body of a wicked female, her beast husband's affection level incr

As the Holy Mother, Yun Shu lived on the mountaintop of the tribe.

She hadn't had a chance to look around when she arrived, but now that she was halfway up the mountain, she looked into the distance and took a deep breath.

"It feels so refreshing." She hadn't felt this relaxed in a long time.

She poked at Zhuyou's scales. "Zhuyou, put me down."

As soon as her feet touched the ground, she pointed into the distance, turned back with a smile, and said, "Zhuyou, look, it's so beautiful."

"You can see it every day, what's so special about it?"

...What an unromantic man! Xu Wan rolled her eyes, too lazy to pay him any attention, and slowly walked back.

The system was gone, but the basic functions were still working. When she brought up the system panel and saw the favorability ratings of her three beast husbands, she felt like the sky had fallen.

The good news is all above 90; the bad news is all negative.

"Are you kidding me?!" she sighed, her exhaustion coming unexpectedly.

I tried to squat down but realized my current body shape simply doesn't support that movement... It's even more frustrating!

Others transmigrate into a book: Handsome men, wealth, and golden fingers!

She transmigrated into a book, and her lazy, gluttonous nature was off the charts, leading to a disastrous start to the story.

But it wasn't a complete loss; she spotted a treasure chest labeled "Newbie Gift Pack" in the corner, though she didn't know when it had been given to her.

She rubbed her hands together, looked at the golden treasure chest in front of her, and excitedly pressed [Open].

"Golden light appears! Golden light appears! God, please bless this unlucky noob!"

Her mutterings were heard by Zhu You in front of her, but she couldn't understand them and didn't turn around.

There was no movement behind him for a long time, so he turned around and found the female leaning against the stone wall with her back to him, her shoulders slumped, as if she had been stimulated by something.

Zhu You was startled. "W-what's wrong?"

"Shh." Xu Wan raised her index finger. "Don't talk, just listen."

"What are you listening to?" He immediately became alert, thinking there was some danger.

Xu Wan patted her chest, "Listen to my heart, it's shattered into pieces."

Zhu You stared at her expressionlessly for two seconds, then turned and left, saying, "How inexplicable."

Xu Wan didn't stop her; she had no interest in men right now, and all she felt was regret.

Ha, she begged and pleaded for ages, and in the end all she got were five beauty and health pills and three wound medicines.

[A Frugal System!]

A fawning laugh, crackling with static, echoed in her mind.

[Host, the Beauty and Fitness Pill can help you lose weight. Once you've slimmed down, you'll amaze them all!]

"Tch, what's the use of just being thin?" Xu Wan rolled her eyes. "Has the exchange rate adjustment been settled yet?"

【It's settled, settled. I've made up for the shortfall. Holding hands is 10 to 10, hugging is 10 to 20, here we go…】

"Stop." She smirked, her eyes darting around a few times. "There should be a reward for increasing favorability, right? Give it to me."

System: ...Let's give it our all for the sake of performance!

[For every 1 points of favorability gained, you will be rewarded with one treasure chest. The higher the favorability, the better the items you can get from the treasure chest.]

"That's more like it."

[However, host, I must remind you that you only have eight hours of health remaining.]

Xu Wan took a deep breath and cheered herself up. "Okay, I'll go and extend my life right now."

When she returned to her lodgings and found Chen Shuang lying on her animal skin bed, she paused for a moment, then smiled.

It's great to have someone hand you a pillow when you're feeling sleepy!

"Chen Shuang, I'm back!"

Upon hearing her voice, Chen Shuang hurriedly scrambled to her feet, but remembering what Zhu You had said, she steeled herself and didn't move.

He hadn't had time to put his animal skin coat back on while applying medicine, so he grabbed it and haphazardly used it to shield himself from her view, his back to her.

"No, don't come any closer!"

Xu Wan paused in her steps, her smile freezing on her face.

She saw the unseen scars on Chen Shuang's back: the old ones had scabbed over, while the new ones were still bleeding, all intertwined.

She felt as if a huge stone was lodged in her heart, and even her voice unconsciously softened.

"Do you need some medicine applied? Let me help you, okay?"

After taking a few steps inside, the wound on Chen Shuang's back was completely exposed to her view.

Her stomach clenched suddenly. She clutched her palms, her voice trembling, "How could you hit me so hard..."

Chen Shuang, with her back to her, sneered, "What are you pretending for? Didn't you do all of this yourself?"

"Didn't you complain that I was too far away, and make me kneel down in front of you so you could exert yourself more easily...?"

He heard a soft sob behind him, which stopped him from saying what he hadn't finished. He turned around in disbelief and met Xu Wan's blue eyes, which were filled with tears.

He opened his mouth, his eyes, which had been filled with utter disgust, now showing a hint of panic. "Why are you crying? I... I didn't bully you..."

Xu Wan shook her head. She didn't want to cry, but the wounds felt like needles pricking her eyes, and tears just flowed out.

"What's going on now?"

Zhu You walked in carrying herbs, looked at Xu Wan who was crying her eyes out, then glanced at Chen Shuang, and frowned. "Did you bully her?"

"No!" they both said in unison.

Xu Wan gripped Zhu You's wrist, her blue eyes glistening with tears as she looked at him. "I'll help Chen Shuang apply the medicine. I promise, I won't do anything, okay?"

"So," Zhu You paused, "you cried because of his wound?"

Xu Wan didn't answer, but thinking about Chen Shuang's wound condition, her nose tingled again.

She silently took the herbs from Zhu You's hand, walked up to Chen Shuang, and said in a voice so soft it was as if she were afraid of breaking, "Let me apply the medicine for you, okay?"

Perhaps the sadness in her eyes was too heavy, because Chen Shuang opened her mouth, but turned her head away and turned her body to the side, revealing a little more of her back.

Only the breathing of the three people remained in the cave, along with Chen Shuang's soft inhalation after the herbs were applied to her wounds.

"Does it hurt a lot? I'll be gentler."

Xu Wan had tried to move as gently as possible, but hearing Chen Shuang's suppressed groans, she didn't know how much force she should use.

She subconsciously leaned forward and gently blew on his wound. When her cool breath brushed against Chen Shuang's wound, he tensed up and shook his neck uncomfortably.

Just like when she was a child and the headmistress would apply medicine to her wounds, Xu Wan softened her voice, "It's okay, it doesn't hurt, it'll be fine soon."

"Chen Shuang is great. Just bear with it, the medicine will help you heal faster."

Hearing her soft, sweet voice, Chen Shuang felt the pain in his wounds lessen. He couldn't help but move closer to Xu Wan, wanting to listen to her voice more carefully.

Noticing his actions, Xu Wan simply hummed a tune she often hummed while applying the medicine.

Looking at the relatively harmonious scene before him, Zhu You said nothing and turned to walk towards another cave.

The cave was pitch black and so quiet you could hear your own breathing.

"Fox Spirit, I brought some new herbs."

"Heh." A sneer came from inside the cave. "What? You've taken the medicine, your wounds have healed, and you're going to let her hit you again?"

"Zhuyou, you and Chenshuang are still too soft-hearted. She says a few nice words and you both rush to her side. Don't you ever think that this is just another way she tortures you?"

Zhu You was silent for a moment, then a picture flashed before his eyes of her hugging him and calling his name. "She's changed. She's not the same as before."

The laughter inside the cave was even louder, laced with heavy mockery.

Footsteps approached, and Fox Jiu's figure slowly appeared in front of the cave.

His brow bone was high and smooth, and his eyes were upturned at the corners, a unique eye shape of the fox clan. The fiery red color of his eyes, combined with the small mole under his eye, added to his alluring charm.

However, a long scar running from his brow bone to his jaw ruined everything, making his handsome face look ferocious.
