After being bound to the procreation system, the little female seduces everyone in the beast world.

Yan Shu looked up at A Xu and noticed that his eyes were less teasing than usual and more serious.

Are you really afraid of Zero?

He asked softly, his voice filled with concern.

Yan Shu was slightly taken aback, and after a moment of silence, she nodded gently: "Yes, I am somewhat afraid of snakes."

Ah Xu sighed, took a step closer, but didn't playfully wrap his tail around her as usual.

"Ah Ling has been feeling very down lately."

Ah Xu's gaze fell upon Ah Ling, who was sharpening her bow and arrows alone outside in the distance.

Yan Shu followed his gaze and looked at A Ling, who was focused on sharpening her bow and arrow in the distance. Her guilt deepened: "I didn't want this either."

“Perhaps you could try to get to know him. Ah Ling isn’t a bad person, she’s just a little reserved,” he said. “And lately he…”

Ah Xu's voice stopped abruptly at that moment, and his eyes became somewhat unfocused.

Fortunately, Yan Shu didn't hear what he said.

She noticed that Ah Ling had noticed her looking at him. He was taken aback for a moment, then lowered his head, picked up his things, and left her sight.

Yan Shu pursed her lips.

-

A few days later.

Yan Shu could always faintly smell a faint fragrance.

The scent was fresh with a hint of strange sweetness, as if it lingered in the air, yet it was impossible to pinpoint its exact origin.

At first she thought it was the scent of wildflowers carried by the wind, but she soon realized that the fragrance did not come from outside.

It always seemed to be lurking around her, especially when Ah Ling got close, the fragrance would become particularly noticeable.

Moreover, as time went on, the fragrance became increasingly intense, almost impossible for Yan Shu to ignore.

She couldn't help but ask, "You smell really nice?"

Ah Ling was slightly taken aback, and a blush quickly spread across her usually cold and stern face.

That usually calm and composed face became somewhat unnatural for a moment.

His golden snake eyes flickered slightly, and he also became flustered.

He quickly looked away, his voice low and restrained: "It might be... brought by the wind."

Seeing that he was clearly avoiding the question, Yan Shu felt increasingly strange: "That's not right. Every time you get close, the fragrance is particularly strong. Is there something special about you?"

Ah Ling's body stiffened for a moment, her Adam's apple bobbing slightly, as if she were in a predicament.

He was silent for a moment, seemingly trying to suppress something, before finally replying in a low voice, "This... is a male of our snake clan..."

When the word "snake" appeared, Yan Shu couldn't help but get goosebumps.

Ah Ling's slightly flushed face froze instantly when she saw Yan Shu suddenly shiver and get goosebumps all over her body.

His face, which had been slightly shy, suddenly darkened, the golden snake eyes in his eyes dimmed, and the blush quickly faded.

Yan Shu immediately realized her overly sensitive reaction and quickly tried to explain, "A-Ling, I..."

But before she could finish speaking, Ah Ling had already turned and run away.

The silver-white figure quickly disappeared into the shadows of the trees, leaving Yan Shu standing there alone.

She suddenly blushed and glared fiercely at Ah Xu next to her, "What...what are you doing!"

Ah-Xu tilted his head, his long silver hair swaying gently in the wind, revealing an innocent expression, yet a faint smile played at the corners of his mouth.

His tail was wrapped around her thigh and rubbing upwards little by little, seemingly very pleased with her reaction.

"Why would I?" He blinked, feigning confusion, a hint of amusement in his voice. "I just wanted to comfort you."

Yan Shu blushed even more, grabbed the fluffy tail, and tugged at it angrily a few times: "This isn't comforting! You're clearly..."

Ah Xu deliberately moved closer, his voice becoming deep and magnetic: "I have a way to make Ah Ling happy. Actually, I've been sensing lately that he wants to end his relationship with you?"

Yan Shu's eyes widened immediately, and she let go of the big tail.

"W-what do you mean by terminating a partnership?" she asked anxiously. "Didn't you say that males can't terminate a partnership? Otherwise they'll die..."

Because she didn't stop him, Ah Xu's narrow fox-like eyes narrowed slightly, and a satisfied smile appeared on his lips.

His voice became even more ambiguous: "He will die, but he also feels guilty for scaring you every day."

Just as Yan Shu was about to speak, A Xu's fluffy tail tightened around her, instantly silencing her. She let out a low groan, her entire body pressed down by his movements, preventing her from uttering a complete sentence.

"You...you let me go first..."

She spoke with difficulty, her voice tinged with shyness.

Ah Xu seemed to completely ignore her protests and continued to whisper in her ear in his deep, seductive voice, "Shu Shu, I know you don't want Ah Ling to be so sad, right? As long as you're willing to listen to me, I promise he'll be happy again soon."

Yan Shu struggled to break free from A Xu's embrace, but the tail clung to her even tighter, and she could even feel A Xu's burning breath.

Then it was as if a thin mist covered her vision, and her consciousness gradually became blurred.

Something seemed to be spinning in her mind, making her thoughts chaotic.

……

-

At night, Yan Shu finally experienced a moment of peace.

This time, Ah-Xu didn't pester her like usual, which surprised her.

She thought about what had happened during the day, and her face felt slightly hot.

He was already fed during the day.

But soon, the idea that Ah-Xu had given her during the day resurfaced in her mind.

He suggested that she go and apologize to Ah Ling that night, especially since the snake clan is most vulnerable when they can't sleep at night. Going to him at that time would definitely comfort him.

Moreover, Ah Ling has been feeling down lately and has been spending all her time by the lake.

She lay in bed, feeling somewhat hesitant.

Finally, she slowly got up, put on a thin coat, and quietly pushed open the door.

No one in the wooden house was asleep.

For example, Ah Hou covered his nose and said, "Ah Ling is really something. The smell is getting stronger and stronger. He doesn't tell the females, and he doesn't go to the snake den."

Ah-Xu rested his hands behind his head, his eyes slightly narrowed.

"That guy, Ah Ling, is just too indecisive. Even though things have come to this point, he's still worrying about this and that. The smell is so strong, yet he still manages to hold back from telling Shu Shu. He's really torturing himself."
