[Story One: The Cold Boss Is Actually a Wolf.]

Lin Tingyu × Shen Wenfeng

A new director suddenly joins Lin Tingyu's department.

The new director is cool, handsome, serious, and conscientious at work, the very picture of an untouchable beauty. It doesn't take long for all his colleagues to think highly of him.

But around her, the new director has a side no one else knows about

He's obedient and easily embarrassed, and he's just as good at acting cute.

Though she tried hard to resist, Lin Tingyu eventually fell for him and began a secret office romance with Shen Wenfeng.

At a party, they play "Two Truths and a Lie." Getting caught up in the competitive spirit, Lin Tingyu thinks for a moment before answering, "When I was in my first year of high school, I joined my mom's research team in rescuing a white wolf cub."

Her colleagues ask all sorts of questions. Only Shen Wenfeng says nothing. After the party, Lin Tingyu asks why he didn't seem surprised, but he only smiles.

Later, she learns that her boyfriend isn't human. He's a white wolf.

[Story Two: The Guardian Spirit I Summoned Is an Evil God]

He Li × Drax

Recently, several vicious incidents involving evil spirits attacking people have occurred in Linjiang. Everyone involved had one thing in common: before the incident, they had seen the same post: [Apparently, you can use dice to connect with a guardian spirit!]

As the most outstanding young exorcist from a family of ghost hunters, He Li has never encountered a case this tricky before.

The problem is, how is an exorcist from the East supposed to catch evil spirits from the West? She can't even track down the shadow of the spirit behind the attacks.

With no other options, He Li decides to try an unconventional approach. Following the instructions in the post, she opens her own chat on WeChat and types: [Guardian spirit, are you there? If you are, even number. If not, odd number.]

[1]

He Li types again: [Are you my guardian spirit? If yes, odd number. If not, even number.]

[2]

Seeing the dice roll, He Li slowly narrows her eyes. The moment her competitive spirit is roused, she stops worrying about whether the questions make sense and copies every question from the post.

On the thirteenth question, the dice finally gives her the answer she wants.

[Will you stay with me forever? If you will, even number. If you won't, odd number.]

[6]

At the same time, her partner messages her that they've made progress on the case. Coming back to her senses, He Li looks at the nonsensical questions and dice rolls in the chat and can't help shaking her head.

Why would an evil spirit be stupid enough to walk into a trap? And her luck is terrible. She had to roll thirteen times to get the right number, with a one-in-two chance.

She laughs, finds the WeChat account she had just rolled the dice with, presses and holds it, then deletes it. The chat history vanishes instantly.

As she finishes packing and gets ready to leave, a sudden snicker comes from behind her, and a hand lands on her shoulder.

A teasing male voice sounds beside her ear, his warm breath tickling her ear and sinking straight into her heart.

"Didn't you ask me to stay with you forever? Why did you delete me?"

[Story Three: My Vampire Roommate]

Zhu Xia × Cyrus

With graduation approaching, Zhu Xia decides to stay in Linjiang and finds an incredible bargain on a rental app: an apartment in a high-end residential complex. According to the agent, the owner lives abroad year-round and is renting it out cheaply.

On her first night in the new place, Zhu Xia makes a huge spread to celebrate moving in. But as she brings the last dish to the table, she suddenly hears a door open at the end of the hallway.

Zhu Xia freezes.

A tall figure slowly emerges from the darkness, then stops just before entering the living room. The light traces his sharply defined profile. Dressed in a black silk robe, the handsome man leans lazily against the wall, looking like a vampire count from the European Middle Ages.

Before Zhu Xia can recover from her shock, the man asks with interest, "Who are you?"

Zhu Xia never expected to run into a shady rental agent.

When she nervously returns to the living room, the handsome owner is sitting at the dining table. After listening to her explain the whole story, he blinks. "Did you make all this? Can I eat it?"

Zhu Xia: ?

[Story Four: I've Been Haunted]

Xu Zhinian × Ying Xu

Ever since returning from a camping trip in Xixi, Xu Zhinian feels as though something has latched onto her.

In the middle of the night, a figure always comes to torment her, kiss her, and touch her, stirring her desire and repeating the same words in her ear over and over.

"You're mine."

Everything in the dream feels so real, but when she wakes up, everything is normal. Her body feels no different, as if nothing ever happened.

Because of her unusual constitution, Xu Zhinian has encountered ghosts ever since she was a child. Each time, the ghost disappears after three or four days. Although this time is different, at least all that happens is that she has weird dreams and isn't harmed. So she doesn't pay it any mind, and the two of them, one human and one ghost, continue their strange relationship.

One evening, Xu Zhinian returns home after dinner with a blind date. As she gets ready to change, the lights in her room suddenly go out, and a damp, icy presence presses against her back.

His presence brushes from her arm down to her waist, then he pulls her into a tight embrace. The voice she has heard countless times in her dreams sounds by her ear.

"I told you, you're mine."

-

Ying Xu was first awakened by a young woman crying out desperately. The poor girl feared she would become the River God's offering, so she sacrificed her soul to him in exchange for a peaceful life.

But what good can come of making a deal with an evil ghost?

So, a thousand years later, he finds the girl again. This time, he won't let her go.

[Story Five: Why Is the Male Housekeeper I Bought a Succubus?]

Li Xu × No. 107 / Li An

Tired of doing housework, Li Xu orders the newest housekeeping robot, available for preorder from Company S. But the preorder period lasts a whole month, and by the time it arrives, she's completely forgotten about it.

Looking at the man in front of her, wearing only a few scraps of fabric and sporting demon horns and a demon tail, Li Xu can't understand the seller's strange sense of humor. Still, she decides to be respectful.

The housekeeping robot takes care of every little detail of her daily life. After more than half a month of shameless, lie-flat living, Li Xu is thoroughly pleased. She takes a photo and leaves a glowing review

[This housekeeping robot is fantastic. I've had it for over half a month, and it's so capable. Even better, it looks great, and the little details are so well done. Every time I get close, its tail wags like crazy. It's just too cute, I'm dying! Anyway, highly recommend!!!]

One second after she posts her review, she gets several comments:

[What kind of robot is that? That's a succubus!]

[Obviously it's a succubus. Of course the tail is realistic.]

[Has the poster seriously not fed her succubus for the past half month...?]

[Your succubus is about to starve to death, and you're still going on about how cute it is!]

Seeing the comments, Li Xu's brows slowly furrow, and her mind gradually goes blank.

Suddenly, a slightly fuzzy tail coils around her wrist. Its little heart-shaped tip presses against the inside of her wrist, wrapping tightly around it. Li Xu can even feel her pulse beating where the tail tightens.

The "male housekeeper" gently rests his chin on her knee and gazes up at her, his face flushed. "Master..."
