He just broke up with his girlfriend and is already living with the devilish rich girl.

He raised his gaze and looked across at the other side.

Luo Yao was resting her chin on her hand, tilting her head and smiling at him.

She stretched her foot forward again and gently stepped on his thigh.

"Hey bro~ Look at my new nail polish, doesn't it look good?"

Bai Ziheng's ears turned bright red.

"...When you're eating, stop squirming around and put your legs back in."

"No, please!"

Instead of retracting her foot, Luo Yao stomped on him even harder, her toes gently scratching his thigh through his pants.

"Look, look! Isn't it beautiful?"

Bai Ziheng took a deep breath and decided to steer the conversation back on track.

"So... do you already have a clue who holds this chaotic power?"

"I'm sorry~"

Luo Yao stretched out both feet and stepped on the inside of Bai Ziheng's thighs, gently stomping with each foot alternately.

"The Special Administration Bureau has never even seen this person's face. He always manages to get away. He's really unreliable."

"I originally wanted to get some information from them, but it turns out they know less than I do."

She tilted her head and gently drew circles on Bai Ziheng's thigh with her toes.

"However, if I can find a beast-like anomaly... I can follow the beast's aura in reverse, and probably... well, I can find that person's location."

"After all, that's my power; how familiar I am with its aura—"

She didn't finish her sentence.

Because Bai Ziheng suddenly finished his rice in two bites, put the empty bowl on the table, and then—

He grasped Luo Yao's feet.

Luo Yao's body trembled visibly, her toes curled up sharply, and a rare look of panic flashed in her golden vertical pupils.

"Huh? What are you doing all of a sudden...?"

Bai Ziheng held her ankles, his thumbs gently pressing against the soles of her feet.

He raised his head, his face bearing a calm expression that seemed to say, "It's finally my turn."

"I was eating earlier, so it wasn't convenient for me to touch your feet. I've finished eating now."

"But...but I haven't finished eating yet—"

Just as Luo Yao was about to pull her foot back, Bai Ziheng suddenly lightly stroked the sole of her foot with his thumb.

"Ha ha ha ha--!!"

Luo Yao sprang up as if she'd been electrocuted, the chopsticks flying from her hand. She tried desperately to pull her foot back, but Bai Ziheng's grip was incredibly strong.

He held her ankle firmly and didn't move an inch.

"Hahahaha! Wait, wait a minute—hahahaha! No—don't tickle—hahahaha! You bastard! Aaaaaaah hahahaha!"

Bai Ziheng couldn't help but laugh when he saw her laughing so hard she was almost crying.

"What a surprise! What a surprise!"

His fingers slowly drew circles on the soles of her feet, and each time he touched a spot, she would bounce up and then fall back down laughing.

"So, Miss Devil, you're ticklish too. Are you that sensitive?"

"Let go—hahaha! Let go of me! How dare you do this to me—hahahaha! Ah, don't touch there—hahahaha, waaaaah—"

Luo Yao laughed until her body went limp, and she slid off the chair, collapsing into the gap between the chair and the table.

Her hair was disheveled, with a few strands clinging to her sweaty cheeks, and tears of laughter glistening in the corners of her eyes.

But even so—

The smile on her face was still that alluring yet provocative, heart-pounding smirk. She slumped in the chair, panting heavily, her chest heaving with each breath, making her appear exceptionally seductive.

Then she raised her eyes, her golden vertical pupils half-closed, Bai Ziheng's face reflected in her tears, her lips slightly parted, her breathing soft and hoarse.

"I...I really didn't expect this..."

She licked her lips.

"You...you actually know how to have fun..."

Looking at her like this, Bai Ziheng felt his throat go dry.

He quickly let go and pretended to clear the dishes.

Just then—

Luo Yao's nose suddenly twitched.

Then her expression changed instantly.

The previous languor and confusion vanished, replaced by the keenness and excitement of a hunter catching the scent of prey.

"What's wrong?"

Bai Ziheng stopped what he was doing.

She looked up, her face still streaked with tears from her earlier laughter, but the corners of her mouth had already curled into that dangerous arc that Bai Ziheng knew all too well.

"Hmm...you really came as soon as I told you, my lord."

She sat up straight in the chair, casually brushed aside her long, loose hair, and stood barefoot on the floor.

"Time to get to work."

Bai Ziheng was stunned for a moment.

"The aura you described has appeared now?"

Luo Yao did not answer.

She sat on the sofa, changed into a pair of stockings, and then put on ankle boots.

Come on~

She stood up and opened her arms to Bai Ziheng.

"Carry me on your back."

Before Bai Ziheng could react, she had already jumped onto his back.

Then--

The two feet, wrapped in black stockings, slowly slid from his waist to the front.

Her toes gently brushed against his thigh.

"What are you doing now...?" Bai Ziheng's ears turned red again.

"Let's go!"

Luo Yao lay on his back, smiling and speaking in an innocent tone.

"About five kilometers to the southeast, the smell of animal breath is very fresh."

Bai Ziheng muttered a few curses and walked towards the door.

"Hey, don't go through the main entrance."

"Where to go then?"

"The window."

"Flying again?"

Bai Ziheng's voice carried a hint of despair.

"Hmm~"

Luo Yao stepped on his thigh again with her toes.

"But this time it's not me flying. Didn't you swallow the core of that hyena before?"

"The power of the A-rank Hyena has been nurtured within your body for several days now. It's time to test how well you've integrated it."

Bai Ziheng's back stiffened instantly.

"You want me to jump myself? From such a height?"

"Yes."

Luo Yao's voice was so sweet it could stretch into silk.

She raised her head slightly, opened her mouth and gently bit his earlobe, her sharp canine teeth rubbing against the soft flesh.

"Don't worry, buddy, I'm here."

Bai Ziheng breathed a sigh of relief.

At least she can fly.

Before the thought had even finished, Luo Yao's voice rang out again, filled with pure joy.

"Even if you're smashed into a pulp, as long as I'm not dead, I can mold you back into a whole new body."

"An arm is an arm, a leg is a leg; if we piece them together, they can still be used."

Bai Ziheng's lips twitched.

Nuwa!

He cursed under his breath.

Then he took a deep breath and carried Luo Yao to the window.

The city lights spread out beneath my feet, and the view from the 21st floor was unobstructed.

"Close your eyes."

Luo Yao's voice was unusually serious as she pressed her lips against Bai Ziheng's earlobe.

"Feel the core within your body."

Bai Ziheng slowly closed his eyes.

At first, I couldn't feel anything.

But Luo Yao tightened her arms around him, her chest pressed against his back.

That gentleness made Bai Ziheng unable to calm his mind.

"Alright... buddy, let's not think about anything else for now, just focus on your work."

Ugh! Why is she accusing me first?!

Bai Ziheng forced himself to calm down, and then he felt it.

The core was like a ball of blazing energy, dormant deep within his blood, pulsating slightly, waiting to be awakened.

"Found it? Good. Now—"

Luo Yao's voice was like a snake, burrowing into the depths of his consciousness.

"Mobilize the power of the demon you first devoured, combine the two powers, let them merge, and then—"

Her lips brushed against his earlobe as she uttered the last two words.

"S out."

puff--

Bai Ziheng almost vomited blood. He was so close to finishing, but he messed up at the last minute.

"Hahahaha, sorry, sorry, I'm not saying anything now~ You can try it again yourself~"

"..."

While cursing under his breath, Bai Ziheng reconnected with that power once more.

Then he suddenly opened his eyes.

His pupils instantly turned into golden vertical pupils.

A surge of heat burst forth from his chest, rushing along his blood vessels to his limbs and bones.

His muscles began to swell, and his bones crackled and popped.

Something was growing wildly beneath his skin, causing his body to grow taller and taller.

When the changes stopped, the man standing by the window was no longer a man over 1.8 meters tall.

Instead, it was a werewolf that was over two meters tall.

Its gray fur gleamed with a cold, silvery light under the moonlight, and its muscular limbs exuded explosive power.

The golden vertical pupils burned in the darkness, like two lamps from the netherworld.

Wow!

Luo Yao let out a joyful cheer from his back.

She lay sprawled on the broad back of the wolf, burying her face in the gray, stiff fur and rubbing it against it repeatedly.

Beneath that stiff layer of fur lies a thick layer of downy fibers, which feel warm and soft to the touch.

"So fluffy! So soft! So incredibly cute!!"

Bai Ziheng opened his mouth, wanting to curse at her.

But the sound that came out was a low growl.

Forget it, I can't be bothered with it anymore. After stretching his new limbs and feeling the power surging within this body, he carried Luo Yao on his back and stepped onto the windowsill.

The moonlight shone on his gray fur and on the girl hanging on his shoulder.

Bai Ziheng stopped thinking and exerted force with both legs.

He jumped from the 21st floor.

The werewolf's jumping ability far exceeded his imagination.

He flew like a cannonball, tracing an arc between the buildings before landing steadily on the rooftop of the building opposite.

He stepped on the cement ground and created several cracks.

Without pausing, he leaped again, this time jumping farther and more freely.

The wind whistled past my ears, and the city lights flowed like a river beneath my feet.

Bai Ziheng had to admit this feeling.

That was fucking awesome.

He couldn't help but tilt his head back.

A long, drawn-out wolf howl emerged from deep within its throat.

The howling exploded in the night sky and echoed throughout the entire neighborhood.

The windows of the building across the street lit up with a crackling sound.

"Whose dog is howling in the middle of the night?! Is it howling like a mourner?!"

"Don't disturb the neighbors if you own a dog! Where's the property management?!"

"Holy crap, I heard wolves howling on the 23rd floor?! Who keeps a husky on the roof?!"

Bai Ziheng shut his mouth and silently jumped off another building.

Luo Yao laughed so hard on his back that she trembled all over, her toes curling up.

"Hahahaha! Dude, you've got insulted, hahahaha!"

"They say you're a dog, hahaha."

"...Shut up."
