Bai Ruofan was a rabbit demon. Recently, she caught a scholar to eat.
The scholar was easily fooled by her and even wanted to marry her.
Bai Ruofan readily agreed, thinking he would soon grow weak and die. But no matter how long she waited, the day she became a widow never came.
Worse still, she had somehow become pregnant.
A demon was supposed to eat humans. This was completely backwards!
So Bai Ruofan found the scholar and gently told him she hoped he would focus on preparing for the imperial exams, and that it would be best if they slept in separate rooms.
Gu Qi looked down at her, his gaze deep and steady.
He said all right. After all, he had never refused anything his wife asked of him.
Bai Ruofan waited uneasily. As soon as she had seen the scholar off to the exam hall, she packed her belongings and fled.
They say the Grand Preceptor of Dayong is a true immortal, versed in the affairs of ghosts and gods and capable of influencing the rise and fall of dynasties.
Gu Qi had never seen the little rabbit demon in any of his divinations or visions of the future. She had thrown the destined course into disarray. She was never supposed to exist.
But she was still his wife. They had merely become separated for a while.
If he couldn't find her this time, he could start over, once, twice, or countless times.
When he found Bai Ruofan, she was huddled among a crowd of refugees, stumbling along with a tiny swaddled bundle in her arms.
A young man was protecting the bare-faced beauty beside him. He seemed to be the next scholar she planned to eat.
"What's this?" Gu Qi easily separated the two of them. Smiling tenderly, he rubbed the fluffy little tuft at the base of her spine. "A little rabbit tail?"
