A Bad Dog Has Its Eye on Me

[Nonhuman love interest | Bad dog × beloved girl]

Do you believe there are monsters in this world?

After her grandmother dies, Lin Qingyue begins to be plagued by strange occurrences.

On her first night after transferring to Cangwu City, a boy saves her on a mountaintop.

He carries a giant crescent scythe on his back. His fluffy, messy hair flies in the moonlight as he impatiently crushes the evil spirit that chased her all the way there with his bare hands.

At first sight of him, Lin Qingyue doesn't feel dazzled or afraid.

Instead...

"He looks like my dog."

Literally.

His messy yet crisp hair and his wild, unruly, animal-like eyes look just like the dog she used to have.

The boy treats her injuries, then takes advantage of his ability to erase her memories and wickedly demands payment.

"I want to smell you."

Lin Qingyue's eyes widen in shock. Help, I've met a perverted monster!

Ji Ke, top of the Demon Control Bureau's rankings, is an abandoned dog whose owner left him behind.

No one dares bring it up.

Because Ji Ke hates the person who abandoned him so much that, if he remembers who it was, he'll bite her to death.

But...

He hasn't found his enemy. He's found a wife first.

The night he was on a mission at the mountaintop, a girl bathed in moonlight entered his field of vision. His memories hadn't returned, but his heart began to beat first.

At first sight of her, Ji Ke wanted to roll around in her arms.

One day after they get together, but before she learns his identity.

Ji Ke clings to Lin Qingyue, rubbing against her and refusing to get up.

His sharp canine teeth brush and nibble at her soft earlobe. In a clingy voice, he says, "You're not like her. You're kind, beautiful, gentle, generous, proper, adorable..."

"She's so awful..."

Lin Qingyue, who knows the whole story, guiltily touches her nose :)

1. The heroine did not abandon the hero.

2. This is not a story about a badass heroine. She's a beloved girl who's a little clever, a little careless, and ordinary, with a few small flaws.

I Moved into a Haunted House and Fell in Love with a Ghost

Honest, laid-back heroine × sweet-talking ghost who coaxes her

When Su Ting turned twenty-five, she was broke and destitute. To avoid sleeping on the street, she chose to move into a haunted house.

The rent was cheap, the decor was elegant, the natural light was good, and it was far from the city center, away from the noise.

When she moved in, the house's previous owner tossed her the keys as if they were burning hot, then looked at her strangely. "Miss, are you really not afraid of ghosts?"

Su Ting: As if. She's a broke ghost herself.

For the half month after moving in, aside from the occasional noise late at night, it was practically her dream home.

After another exhausting night, Su Ting decides to reward herself in the most basic way.

She takes a bath, puts on some music, and just as she reaches the height of pleasure, her hazy gaze suddenly lands on the sofa opposite her.

A young man is sitting there, smiling brightly.

His features are so exquisite they look painted, his brows and eyes clear. He regards her with the curiosity one might show something fascinating, resting his chin in one hand. His smile is gentle and harmless, even rather innocent.

"You look like you're really enjoying yourself."

"May I ask what it feels like?"

Su Ting freezes, her mind blank. Is it too late to run?

Huai Ji has waited for hundreds of years for the girl rumored to be able to restore his flesh and blood.

All he has to do is make her fall in love with him.

An evil ghost doesn't understand love. He only knows how to deceive.

He dons a gentle, sweet facade and studies her like a little animal that's wandered into a trap.

Her fluttering heart, her embarrassment, her affection: all of it is so fresh and fascinating. He coaxes her into a carefully woven web called love.

Arrogance is the worst of all flaws. Huai Ji thinks he isn't afraid of losing anything, and keeps up their fragile lie only because life is boring.

Until the lie falls apart.

Su Ting doesn't cry or demand answers. She calmly declares that it's over, then packs her bags that very night, ready to move out.

The extreme fear of being abandoned shatters the evil ghost's last shred of pride. All his schemes turn into pleas.

He bends his proud back and buries his face against Su Ting's lower belly in a posture so humble it's almost degrading. His eyes lift, dark and clouded.

"I'm rotten to the core. I'm no good."

"You can hit me or curse me, just don't leave me."
