About how they only started falling in love after having a whole litter of kids

+++++ Serious Blurb +++++

The nine-tailed fox demon Zisang Jin went into seclusion for three hundred years. When she emerged, the world had changed beyond recognition.

Spiritual energy had dried up, technology ruled, and she had become a genuine relic of the past.

To make matters worse, she was hauled off to the police station as soon as she came out of seclusion. It was her senior brother, Zisang Di, who bailed her out.

After an accident years ago, the two had married because of a child on the way. They treated each other with respect and raised their kid together, and she had always believed their marriage was nothing more than a responsibility.

Now that their child was grown, she tentatively suggested they each start a new life. But then her usually cool and composed senior brother's eyes suddenly turned red.

Zisang Di had once thought he would spend the rest of his life guarding this block of wood, especially since his master had once described Zisang Jin as a natural fit for the Heartless Dao.

But after she emerged from seclusion this time, his A-Jin had changed.

She imitated mortal couples on a variety show, taking his hand of her own accord and leaning on his shoulder for a nap. She even declared her love for him to the cameras with complete conviction.

"A-Jin, do you think of me as your senior brother... or your husband?"

His voice was low and husky as he cornered her in a spot the cameras couldn't see, his fingertips brushing her lips.

"It would be improper for a senior brother to get his junior sister pregnant, but a husband getting his wife pregnant... that's only natural."

Who would have thought all those moments were recorded? Their comment section was instantly filled with wildly suggestive remarks:

"What is this that we VIPs aren't allowed to see? Hand over the uncut footage!"

"Leopard and kitty, hurry up and have a second baby! Your daughter is on her way!"

One-line summary: You think I'm your lovesick puppy, but I think you're my useful tool.

************ Serious Blurb ************

As the number-one lovesick puppy chasing Yun Hemian, the senior disciple of the Taixu Mystic Sect, Shen Wangxi had her own special talents. She showered him with all kinds of miraculous pills and rare treasures as if they cost nothing.

Yun Hemian never accepted her gifts, and Shen Wangxi didn't mind. She simply gave those treasures away to other people.

Everyone thought Shen Wangxi was hopelessly in love with Yun Hemian, and Yun Hemian was just as certain of it.

Yun Hemian had been wholly devoted to pursuing the Great Dao, until one day, when he was gravely wounded and on the brink of death, Shen Wangxi risked her life to save him.

"Yun Hemian, don't you dare die. Otherwise, I'll never be able to repay what I owe you," she muttered.

At that moment, a warm feeling surged through Yun Hemian's heart, and he secretly resolved to become her cultivation partner once he had recovered.

But before he was fully healed, he received word that Shen Wangxi was preparing to leave the sect.

What he didn't know was...

"Host gave the target a low-grade spirit beast egg. Rebate triggered: obtained one high-grade spirit beast egg."

"Host gave the target a Water Spirit Jade pendant. Rebate triggered: obtained one bottle of Supreme Yin True Water."

As the rare treasures piled up like a mountain in her storage space, Shen Wangxi's lips curled into a faint smile, a sly glint in her eyes. "These worldly possessions really are reassuring."

But the next moment, the string of glaring numbers on the System interface made her freeze. "Damn System! How did I end up owing Yun Hemian so many rebate points?!"

The System explained coldly, "Host, when you first arrived in this world, he saved you. A life-saving favor is priceless. On top of that, as the Taixu Mystic Sect's top disciple, his rebate multiplier is a thousandfold. Naturally, they add up to this much."

Shen Wangxi's vision went black. "With this many rebate points, am I supposed to work for him my whole life? No way. A life-saving favor should be repaid with a life-saving favor!"

At last, she got the chance to save Yun Hemian's life, and her debt was instantly wiped clean.

Free of debt, she packed her bags in the middle of the night and prepared to make a getaway.

Who could have known that someone would suddenly knock on her door? Yun Hemian, usually as cool and pure as jade, stood outside, turbulent emotion stirring in his eyes. "Xi-Xi, if you're leaving... take me with you."
