The Correct Way for a Beauty to Soothe a Monster

[New Novel: After Transmigrating Back, I Just Want to Lie Flat]

[The bonus chapters are a bit stuck, so they’re on hold for now]

Xie Xubai only recently realized that he was an ordinary person in a world of the uncanny.

The stray dog he was planning to adopt gradually grew bigger than a car, while the student he tutored part-time went through a second growth spurt and proudly sprouted forty-three teeth.

His beautiful coworker at the next table found makeup too much trouble and simply peeled off her face to do her eyebrows.

And whenever he looked for a little too long, his boss would appear beside him with a sinister expression.

Slick, icy tentacles writhed slowly within the vast shadow, nearly filling the entire wall.

In the deathly silence, Xie Xubai calmly held out a steaming cup. “It’s getting cold. I made you some ginger tea to warm you up.”

His boss stayed silent for a long time. Two tentacles reached out from the shadows, their tips cautiously curling around the cup before slowly carrying it away.

The world operated in a twisted, bizarre fashion. Ordinary people had no way to protect themselves and could die at any moment.

Fortunately, Xie Xubai took things as they came. He lived each day as if it were his last, and somehow stayed safe and sound.

That is, until players were swept into the uncanny world.

Seeing that most of the players were ordinary people, Xie Xubai felt a vague sense of kinship with them.

The players first got to know Xie Xubai in a narrow alley where monsters lived.

The monster was as tall as a two-story building. Its furious roar shook the heavens, and everyone fled in a panic, screaming themselves hoarse.

When Xie Xubai appeared, struggling to carry a bucket of homemade dog food, the players were still in despair.

They had checked this NPC’s stats in advance. He was the real deal: a flimsy little corn chip, nothing but an extra snack for a monster.

Who could have guessed that all it took was for him to reach out for the rampaging monster to close its gaping maw and meekly nuzzle into his palm?

The players took their first narrow escape as a lucky encounter. Soon, they entered another instance, where they became tutors for a middle school student.

The moment they got a question wrong, the student flew into a rage and tried to tear them to pieces!

Hearing the commotion, Xie Xubai came over from next door and popped a candy into the student’s mouth, which held 123 teeth. “Getting angry all the time will stunt your growth.”

The student grumbled impatiently but didn’t lose his temper again.

The ghoul head of First Hospital, the scissors-wielding doll in the Game House, the bloodthirsty and brutal evil god CEO of a publicly listed company…

The players were stunned to discover that whenever Xie Xubai was around, even a boss in a berserk frenzy would immediately calm down.

One rescued player posted about the experience on the forum, and the entire player community exploded!

Xie Xubai, who could protect the players, became an undisputed treasure in their hearts.

One day, Xie Xubai’s efforts to protect the players finally enraged the evil god. Chilling tentacles swept out and dragged the beauty into the abyss.

The players present couldn’t save him in time. Just before the rift closed, they heard Xie Xubai let out a suppressed, broken sob.

When the news reached the forum, all the players went wild!

The beautiful NPC had apparently been violated. Furious, they joined forces to storm the abyss.

But there they found the beauty held carefully aloft by the tentacles, his cheeks flushed as if he were drunk.

Xie Xubai gently patted his jealous, sulking boss and coaxed him with a smile. “All right, all right.”

Then he leaned in and pressed a passionate kiss to the face.

Every tentacle shuddered at once, rippling with tremors on the spot.

Here’s another upcoming novel: After Transmigrating Back, I Just Want to Lie Flat

In his previous life, Jiang Xing was a supreme celestial master, just one step away from ascending. He exhausted himself and achieved great success. After transmigrating back, he just wanted to be a contented fish lying flat, far away from all the drama and disputes.

But fate had other plans. His family worried that he was all alone and likely to attract evil spirits, so they entrusted him to Xi Hailou, a rising star in the world of metaphysics.

Xi Hailou was tenderhearted toward the weak. After seeing Jiang Xing once, pale and nearly fainting with fright in front of an evil spirit, he couldn’t bring himself to force him into this treacherous world.

That night, Xi Hailou gently coaxed Jiang Xing to sleep. “It’s all fake, made up to scare people. Be good, don’t be afraid. I’m right here with you.”

.

Paranormal videos spread like wildfire, full of sinister, terrifying ghosts.

Streamer: “Holy sh*t, there’s a ghost! There really is a ghost! Aaaaaah!”

Xi Hailou snapped Jiang Xing’s phone shut. “Fraudulent tricks and superstitious nonsense.”

An evil creature appeared in the street, laughing wildly as it began to slaughter people.

Evil creature: “Damn celestial master, prepare to die! …Ah!”

Xi Hailou stepped in front of Jiang Xing and kicked it away. “…Where’d this lunatic come from?”

A thousand-year-old evil spirit burst out of its coffin. The formation was on the verge of breaking, and they were in grave danger.

His companion roared, “Xi Hailou! Where the hell did you go?”

With no time to explain, Xi Hailou hung every protective talisman he had on Jiang Xing and gave him repeated instructions. “Good, don’t move around. It’s safe here. Wait for me, I’ll be right back. Whatever you do, don’t go outside.”

But he couldn’t keep it from Jiang Xing every time.

The thousand-year-old evil spirit was overwhelmingly powerful. Xi Hailou and the others were no match for it and fell to the ground. At the critical moment, Jiang Xing stepped forward.

The once universally dismissed pretty boy transformed into a supreme celestial master. With the might of a single sword strike, he forced the evil spirit back into its coffin. His brilliance blazed for an instant, his imposing presence on full display, stunning everyone.

.

When Xi Hailou fell, he was covered in blood and barely conscious.

He heard familiar footsteps beside him. Someone gently brushed aside the hair falling over his temple.

A cool, faint fragrance drew close to his lips, carrying a subtle scent of tea. The voice was so tender it seemed to melt. “What a fool.”

That single smile was enough to make Xi Hailou fall for him, with no hope of ever climbing back out.
