What Should I Do If My Boyfriend Is a Tentacle Monster?

When Jiang Jingshu was twenty, she unexpectedly realized that she seemed to have landed in the script of a mighty heroine.

First, her childhood sweetheart and fiancé cheated on her and found himself a girlfriend whose family was several generations richer than his.

Jiang Jingshu splashed tea in the jerk's face. Just as she walked out the door, she was unexpectedly caught up in a paranormal incident and, through a twist of fate, awakened a supernatural ability.

A dashing, mature woman in a sharp suit smiled warmly and handed her a direct-entry card to the Bureau of Paranormal Affairs: "The Huaguo Bureau of Paranormal Affairs welcomes you aboard."

And so, third-year student Jiang Jingshu skipped the terrifying competition where countless candidates fought for a single spot, bypassed the written exam, first interview, second interview, and final interview that only one in ten thousand could pass, and went straight to a secure government position.

Twelve types of insurance, eight benefits, eighteen months' salary a year, a 10-to-5 schedule with weekends off, and generous travel and overtime pay. The only downside was that the job could be a little life-threatening.

Jiang Jingshu: ...Fine, I guess!

With her golden rice bowl secured, Jiang Jingshu slapped the childhood sweetheart who wanted her back, then suddenly had the urge to fall in love.

A powerful heroine deserved a sweet, innocent puppy of a boyfriend.

Jiang Jingshu's eyes fell on her junior in the same department: an eighteen-year-old boy with red lips and pearly white teeth, short chestnut hair, and beautiful amber eyes like melted honey.

Gentle and sweet, blushing all over at the slightest tease, with skin as soft and pale as fine jade.

Jiang Jingshu: Slurp, slurp. How am I supposed to resist?

And so, Jiang Jingshu soon had a handsome, sweet, obedient young boyfriend who was as gentle as could be, could cook and host, and catered to her every whim.

She couldn't help letting herself go a little, enjoying a wild time night after night...

Until the Bureau of Paranormal Affairs sounded a red alert. The director gave a grave briefing: "A heavenly great demon with a threat level of 5S+ has shown frequent energy fluctuations lately. It seems to have awakened from thousands of years of hibernation, and it has a bloodthirsty, murderous streak!"

Though the timing of the energy peaks recorded by the monitors seemed a little odd. Most occurred around nine on weekday nights or throughout the weekends, and they often lasted for more than an hour.

With a heart full of tragic resolve, Jiang Jingshu bade farewell to her handsome boyfriend and resolutely joined the advance exploration team.

Everyone held their breath and stood on alert, gazing warily toward their destination

The red-lipped, pearly-toothed boy was happily humming a tune, wearing a pale pink teddy bear apron.

His upper body looked perfectly normal. But from his lower body, countless thick, knotted black tentacles stretched out in every direction, moving in orderly fashion.

Some mopped the floor, some cleaned the windows, some washed vegetables, while a few others held pots and pans, spatulas and ladles, and a kitchen knife.

Jiang Jingshu: ???

Jiang Jingshu: !!!

That pink teddy bear apron looked like the sexy one she'd picked out just last week. The lotus root and pork rib soup simmering in the pot looked like the one she'd ordered that morning. And the boy...

Wasn't he her sweet, obedient, and handsome little boyfriend?!
