Inside the cave, Xu Wan tossed and turned, her stomach growling with hunger, and she was too restless to fall asleep.

"I'm so angry! He actually doesn't believe me!"

【There's nothing I can do, host. The original owner did many things to hurt them. How could they be completely unsuspecting of you after only two days?】

"I know all that you're saying, but... but I didn't do it."

Xu Wan sniffled, and her eyes welled up with tears again.

She has hated being wronged since she was a child.

When others at the orphanage wrongly accused her of stealing, the director would look at her with great disappointment; at work, her colleagues would pass the buck, and her boss would hand over the project she had worked on for half a year to someone else.

No one asked her for the truth; everyone just believed what they saw in front of them.

She had been very careful since she entered this world.

Knowing that her life points were tied to the original owner's three beast husbands, she cautiously approached them, afraid that she would lose her life if she made a mistake.

Even if you dislike her, you can't falsely accuse her out of nowhere.

The more she thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt. She struggled to sit up, buried her face in her arms, and sobbed softly.

[Host...] The system's voice was much softer than usual. [You've done very well, really.]

She didn't say anything, but her nose felt even more sore.

[Host, if you're in a bad mood, how about opening a treasure chest to distract yourself? You might find a surprise!]

Xu Wan didn't want to turn it on, but the system kept pestering her, so she randomly pressed the start button.

[Congratulations, host, you have obtained a high-level item! Your system space has increased by three square meters, and you have received a two-milliliter trial pack of spiritual spring water!]

Hearing the system's upbeat tone in her mind, Xu Wan couldn't help but laugh out loud. "Are you trying to make me happy?"

Does it work?

"What if I don't get one? Can you give me some more as a reward?"

"Well... that doesn't seem to work. I can tell you jokes or stories, though."

"Your services are so comprehensive?"

[Of course, once you complete the 'Instant Pregnancy' mission, you'll also unlock my baby-raising service.]

Taking care of the kids? Xu Wan's mind flashed to the image of a robot chasing after a bunch of jumping little kids, and she burst out laughing.

Chatting aimlessly with the system, my bad mood dissipated without me even realizing it.

She popped another diet pill into her mouth, clenched her fist, and mumbled a self-encouragement that was hard to understand, "Xu Wan, you can do it!"

"What can it be?"

Chen Shuang's voice came from the cave entrance, startling Xu Wan.

The next second, she felt something pop out from above her head, furry and moving.

She gasped softly, reaching up to touch the two erect rabbit ears. She looked at Chen Shuang blankly, her voice slightly bewildered, "Ears...how did the ears get out?"

Enchanted by her adorable appearance, Chen Shuang couldn't help but burst out laughing.

He raised his hand, almost touching her earlobe, then stopped, his fingertips twitching slightly before he withdrew it.

He remembered that the rabbits' ears were very sensitive, and if their ears were touched at this time, they might be stimulated into arousal.

I was suddenly relieved that it was nighttime and the other person wouldn't see my slightly flushed face.

"I startled you." He softened his voice. "Don't be nervous, relax, take a deep breath, imagine your ears disappearing, and you'll be able to pull them back."

"Okay, okay." Xu Wan obediently did as instructed, covering her head with both hands, closing her eyes and repeatedly uttering the word "disappear."

After a while, she touched her head and realized that her ears were indeed gone.

"Wow, that's amazing!" she laughed. "Chen Shuang, thank you!"

Chen Shuang didn't speak, but her gaze towards her became even gentler.

Things have really changed. The females of the past would never say thank you to him, nor... they wouldn't even listen to him properly.

[Host, host, Chen Shuang's favorability rating has increased again; it's now at -73!]

Not only was the system surprised, but Xu Wan herself was also shocked.

She only applied medicine to Chen Shuang once, and didn't say as much as she did to Hu Jiu and Zhu You, so how did her favorability rating rise so quickly?

[System, are you sure the detection function isn't malfunctioning?]

【Let's get this straight! If it really is a mistake on your part, I'm not returning the items from the treasure chest!】

The system emitted a static sound, as if amused by her greedy appearance, or perhaps sighing helplessly.

Seeing that she wasn't as upset as before, he simply cut off contact unilaterally and let her do as she pleased.

The system remained silent, and Xu Wan suddenly felt uncertain.

She covered her head and secretly looked up at Chen Shuang, relying on the darkness to make him unable to see, but she forgot that male beastmen's vision was not affected at night.

Looking at the sneaky little female in front of him, Chen Shuang couldn't help but smile, and the mischievousness that belonged to the boy couldn't be suppressed.

He suddenly bent down, closing the distance between them to just a finger's width.

Xu Wan could even see the curve of his eyelashes and feel the warmth from his breath.

Her eyes blinked rapidly, she forgot to breathe, her fingers unconsciously curled up, and her body stiffened.

The culprit then laughed, revealing a small, pointed canine tooth, looking utterly harmless.

"Mistress, breathe."

As soon as she finished speaking, Xu Wan hurriedly came to her senses, and before she could catch her breath, she choked and coughed.

"Cough cough cough..."

Just as she was gently patted on the back and caught her breath, she heard Chen Shuang's cheerful voice above her head, "If you want to see, you can look up and look openly."

Xu Wan's face flushed red. She felt her heart beating abnormally fast, and her ears were ringing.

Her voice was barely audible, like a mosquito's buzz, "You... how do you know I'm looking at you if you're not looking at me..."

"I was looking at the female lead," Chen Shuang admitted frankly. "I've been looking at you ever since I came in."

Xu Wan opened her mouth, but her mind went completely blank.

"By the way, are you hungry, mistress? I'll grill some meat for you."

"And also, what herbs did you apply to my body, Mistress? I feel like all my injuries have healed. Tomorrow I'll go hunt a few Moo Moo beasts for you, Mistress."

"The female master..."

"Wait, wait a minute!" Xu Wan's ears burned from his call. The boy's voice was clear and cheerful, but every "female master" sounded like it was swirling on the tip of his tongue, making the listener's heart itch.

She's a single mother; she's never seen such tactics before.

"You, you shouldn't call me Mistress..."

"What's it called?" Chen Shuang bent down and moved closer to her.

As if he had thought of something, the curve of his lips widened little by little, but he remained silent for a long time.

Xu Wan was so overwhelmed by the escalating atmosphere that she was almost suffocating. Just as she was about to speak, she heard the little wolf cub's voice close to her ear.

"Wanwan," he said in a low voice, his tone carrying a smile that took several turns, "may I call you that?"

How could that be so unfair!

Xu Wan unconsciously rubbed her fingertips together behind her back, and her breathing became erratic.

She instinctively turned her head away, trying to hide her racing heartbeat.

"Everything is fine..."

With that, she simply lay back on the bed and turned her back to me. "I...I'm going to sleep. You can leave now."

Instead of retreating, Chen Shuang advanced, supporting himself on the edge of the bed with one hand, his breath getting closer and closer to her ear.

"But Wanwan," his voice laced with obvious amusement, "you've always liked me to transform into my beast form to sleep with you, don't you need that today?"
