Swallowing Gold, Sleeping Among Flowers

Preorder: Alien Boyfriend, Infinite Reproduction [Nonhuman]. If you're interested, please add it to your favorites.

Ye Chao is the lowest-ranking employee at the Bureau of Alien Illegal Resident Investigations. She puts on a suit and tie, takes a search warrant, and goes around "investigating." Using her identity as an agent to muddle through, she takes bribes and extorts people until everyone hates her.

Rumors spread that aliens have infiltrated human society. The atmosphere is tense, everyone on the streets is on edge, afraid that if they open their mouths, a tentacle will come slithering out.

Ye Chao only gives a cold laugh.

There are no aliens. It's just another scam cooked up by the privileged to invent new ways to fleece people.

Besides, what could aliens possibly want on Blue Star?

Rob banks, steal food, take the oil?

Anyway, Ye Chao has no fondness for those mysterious, unknown creatures.

Her blind date is gentle and well-mannered, with a good family and a stable job.

He has silver hair, icy blue eyes, and a faintly mechanical smile.

Aside from being so beautiful that she feels a little insecure, he checks all the boxes.

But as he hands her a cup of coffee, she feels something soft and slender brush the innermost flesh of her finger.

Like a tentacle.

After she starts dating him, one strange thing after another happens.

Her newly parachuted-in boss suddenly starts packing her nutritious, lovingly made lunches every day.

A business tycoon she investigates at work sits beside her and casually toys with her fingers.

Even when she goes to the hospital for menstrual cramps, a top doctor personally examines her.

And every one of them is exceptionally good-looking... and gentle.

It's just that those invisible tentacles keep finding their way everywhere, slipping into her sleeves, her waistband, and even... They're getting more and more brazen!

Ye Chao helplessly bursts into tears.

Younai is a composite organism from planet J14, a hive mind? A gestalt organism? Call it whatever you like.

To study how independent intelligent life forms survive, it dragged its thirty-five million six hundred and ten thousand tentacles to Earth. Each tentacle has a measure of independent consciousness. It carefully created several bodies that fit human women's tastes, placing them in every walk of life and making them elite, all to explore how the society of independent life forms works.

As for its true form, that was naturally for exploring reproduction.

But it only used a tiny bit of its, um, parts, and its wife screamed that she couldn't take it anymore.

Younai felt wronged. Hadn't she felt every one of its tentacles expressing its love for her?

Blurb:

If Gu Shi had known that one day she'd end up as Leng Chuan's concubine, she wouldn't have been so smug and clever.

For six years, she and he had a nameless, illicit relationship in the prince's manor. She loved him wholeheartedly, but he kept testing her sincerity with cold words. He even said he would marry a general's daughter and marry her off to a sycophant.

He mistakenly believed that love had to be unforgettable. If being together hurt, yet they stayed together, then surely that was the purest and truest kind of love.

Leng Chuan was an orphan with no one to rely on and nothing to worry about. She was fierce and ruthless, and the sour sting she gave him had always been addictive.

Meanwhile, Qin Sizhao, her childhood sweetheart, with whom she had been engaged since they were young, had overcome countless hardships and traveled a thousand miles to pass the imperial exam as its top scholar, all so he could bring her home.

But it was too late for regrets now.

He had already exhausted every vile method of coercion and possession. Whether he coughed up blood, knelt, or put on a courtesan's act and let her do as she pleased, nothing could win her heart back.

He glared furiously at Qin Sizhao, thinking, I was the one who possessed her first. What right does this despicable third party have to steal my wife?

Qin Sizhao gave a cold laugh, perfectly composed. "Marriage is decided by one's parents and arranged by the matchmaker. Who do you think you are?"

A little scene:

Leng Chuan: "I'll pretend it's a bedroom game and beat you within an inch of your life."

Gu Shi: "Wifey, why is your destined match that homewrecker?"

The plot is explosive.
