After Three Years Sharing a Bed, My Frail Husband Revealed His Fox Tail

After transmigrating, Yu Xiaoman was left with a disaster to clean up: her family had run out of food, her mother-in-law was coughing, her brother-in-law couldn't afford to go to school, and her husband Yan Changsheng was poor and reserved. They had shared a bed for three years without consummating their marriage.

The System issued an instruction: unlock one piece of street gossip each day, hunt demons for money, and save enough points to retire rich.

By selling information, Yu Xiaoman started with flour that cost eight copper coins per jin, then made sure her whole family could eat meat, wear padded clothes, and live in a mansion.

She was perfect in every way, except for one problem: she craved her handsome husband's body.

Today she would touch his hand, tomorrow she'd put her arms around his slender waist, and the day after that she'd openly praise his flushed lips.

Yan Changsheng was actually a ninth-rank snow fox demon lord who had hidden himself among humans. Cold-hearted and detached, he mistakenly believed that Yu Xiaoman's bold behavior meant someone had poisoned her with a potent "love curse."

Watching her work so hard every day to support the family, then throw herself into his arms at night when her "curse" took hold, the aloof great demon was overcome with guilt and self-reproach:

"I failed to protect you, and let you suffer so terribly from the love curse."

So Yu Xiaoman noticed that her seemingly frail husband had changed.

When she needed to solve a case, the files at the Court of Judicial Review were quietly organized for her.

When she needed to hunt demons, vicious beasts with blood on their hands showed up at her door, bruised and battered, to turn themselves in.

Then one day, the love curse was lifted, and Yu Xiaoman packed her bags, ready to return to the modern world.

That aloof and otherworldly Minister of the Court of Judicial Review kicked down the back-garden gate. Nine enormous snow-white fox tails wrapped tightly around her as he bit the tip of her ear, the corners of his eyes red.

"Yu Xiaoman, you've had your fill and left me high and dry... Who said you could leave?"
