Hey, Is Anyone There? A Beautiful Snake Is Here to Repay Your Kindness!

Yu Ning was a pitiful child, unloved by his wicked father and stepmother. His father sold him for ten taels of silver to be used as a living sacrifice.

Yu Ning had just arrived at the temple when he was frightened into unconsciousness. When he woke, he found that someone had rescued him.

A handsome young man with a gentle disposition held the trembling Yu Ning in his arms and stroked him softly.

He held a token and said it was proof of the betrothal they had arranged when they were children.

If anyone has wronged you, be sure to tell your husband all about it.

Yu Ning turned misfortune into fortune and gained someone to protect him.

When his wicked father and stepmother bullied him, his husband paid them back twice over.

When the villagers whispered about him, one cold look from his husband was enough to leave them afraid to utter another word.

His husband repaid every hardship Yu Ning had ever endured.

The villagers of Daohua Village swallowed their anger and lived in constant fear, worried that Yu Ning would expose the nasty things they'd done in the past.

Yu Ning's life kept getting better, and his once-thin, gaunt face grew a little rounder.

His husband was wonderful, treating him kindly and living with him in mutual respect.

But the longer they lived together, the more Yu Ning felt his husband was unlike other people.

Whenever the weather turned hot or cold, his husband would fall ill, making Yu Ning worry. Sometimes he was alarmingly hot, sometimes so cold he chilled to the touch. He also loved staying up at night and sleeping during the day. Whenever Yu Ning woke in the middle of the night, his husband was nowhere to be found... But his husband always brushed it off by saying he'd been born that way.

Yu Ning had his doubts, but eventually believed him.

Until one day, Yu Ning accidentally stumbled upon his husband eating raw meat and drinking blood, with a tail hidden beneath his robe that could no longer be concealed.

He'd always heard that the mountains were full of strange creatures, but seeing one with his own eyes still frightened him. How could his husband be a snake demon?!

"Clatter!"

Xu Xiuhe's eyes turned cold as he ate, but the iciness in his gaze melted like spring water when he realized it was Yu Ning.

A trace of panic cracked his usually calm, gentle expression. "My husband!"

He hurried over and grabbed the stunned Yu Ning, afraid he would run away. "Don't be afraid of me."

At night, a black snake coiled around the beauty, slowly tightening its grip.

Its slick scales scraped red marks onto his pale skin.

The snake flicked out its forked tongue and, bit by bit, swallowed the beauty whole...
