Animal-eared Girl Era: Start by Forming a Contract with an SSS-Class School Belle

Ziran said coldly,

"Qingcheng could never lie."

"That girl loved you so much, but you let her down, jerk!"

Yun Bing and Yunxi snorted, "Yeah, you heartless bastard!"

The white-haired maiden said with disappointment, "Xiao Ye, Gu Qingcheng loved you down to her bones, but you never cared about her. What you did really let me down."

"If I marry you in the future, would you treat me like that too?"

The Space Ancestor Empress wavered a little inside.

*She wondered if she should tell her sister—this man wasn't worth entrusting her whole life to.*

*As a wife, he's just not it, but as a Guardian, maybe he's the right choice.*

Xiao Ye looked bitter all over, "I really wasn't that kind of guy. Qingcheng, maybe the future me let you down, and maybe even me right now let you down, but my feelings for you..."

"...were real."

"I seriously wouldn't ever treat you the way she said!"

But none of the ladies believed him, the incident had already happened—was it possible Qingcheng would lie? No way.

Just then, a golden light gate appeared, and the main wife Cheng Bingxi walked out.

She wore a high ponytail, her long hair trailing to her waist.

Compared to the other beast girls, her figure was the most ordinary. If she had any standout feature, it was her pair of absolutely killer long legs.

She looked at Xiao Ye with a complicated expression.

*Xiao Ye's heart clenched with pain, "Bingxi, you know me best. Do you really think I'm that kind of person too?"*

Cheng Bingxi sighed.

*Xiao Ye's heart sank—did even his first love think he was that kind of guy?*

Cheng Bingxi shook her head, "Xiao Ye's not that kind of person."

"But a hundred years later, maybe the truth was already set, and there might have been misunderstandings."

"For you to treat Sister Qingcheng like that, maybe there's something fishy going on."

Xiao Ye's eyes lit up, "Right! Fishy! I, Xiao Ye, would never give any beast girl the cold shoulder!"

"Qingcheng's soul still has waves pulsing. Let's keep reading."

Doubt flickered on the girls' faces and the Space Ancestor Empress's face.

Their attention went back to the Soul Capturing Pearl, continuing to read,

"My husband treated me like that, but all I felt toward him was resentment."

"But all of this, it's what I brought on myself—I deserved it!"

"It's not his fault, it's all mine!"

The girls' eyes widened.

Cheng Bingxi said, "I knew there was something fishy."

Ziran's voice trembled in disbelief, "Qingcheng, in the future… don't tell me you cheated?"

"Had an affair?"

"If Qingcheng really did cheat, Xiao Ye treating her that way would almost make sense."

Xiao Ye's face turned dark, "In the future, Sister Qingcheng cheated?"

"Fuck!"

*He felt a block in his chest, and was full of frustration.*

*Just thinking of Sister Qingcheng moaning underneath some other man made him even more frustrated and pissed off.*

"Goddammit!"

"Didn't think even I, Xiao Ye, would get cheated on one day!"

The girls' faces went blank; their opinion of Xiao Ye reverted to normal.

The Space Ancestor Empress glanced at him sympathetically, *He had so many beast girls, but if he slipped up just once, he might get cheated on himself.*

The white-haired girl's eyes lit up. She pounced over, clinging to Xiao Ye, and declared, "Xiao Ye, don't worry. I, Bai Mao, will definitely marry you."

"I, Bai Mao, will absolutely never cheat, never betray you."

"Whether it's spiritually, emotionally, or physically, I will never, ever betray you!"

"As for Master, who knows with her—she might be the one to cheat on you."

Ziran snapped, "Xiangling, you better think before you speak, or I'll lock you up for a hundred years."

"You are not allowed to marry Xiao Ye!"

The white-haired maiden shrank her neck and stuck out her tongue, "Okay, okay, I was joking."

"Master's lived fifteen hundred years and never touched a man. She can handle being alone. How could she ever cheat? If anyone were going to cheat, it'd be... uh."

She glanced over at Yun Bing, Yunxi, and Cheng Bingxi.

But when she saw killing intent in their eyes, she changed her tune.

"No, no, no, all you sisters are devoted to Xiao Ye to death. None of you would ever cheat on him!"

"Hmph!" Yun Bing and Yunxi snorted coldly.

Cheng Bingxi twitched her mouth, *This Bai Mao really was a clown, but even clowns needed to have limits—you couldn't joke about everything.*

*How could they possibly cheat? Xiao Ye completely owned their hearts. There was no room for other men at all!*

"Hmph, even touching a male dog would feel dirty to me."

"Yeah, even Xiao Ye's clone would disgust me. There's no way I'd betray him."

Yun Bing and Yunxi huffed together.

Xiao Ye twitched at the corners of his mouth.

*This was exactly why he didn't do clones.*

*These beast girls wouldn't even touch his clones.*

*As for them cheating?*

*He didn't believe it for a single second!*

*Besides, the reason he didn't do clones was that he was afraid he'd get cheated on by himself!*

*Bottom line, he'd never mess with clones,*

*but just thinking about Qingcheng cheating on him in the future made him miserable again—a total headache.*

Bai Mao shrank her head, "Did Sister Qingcheng really cheat, and that's why Xiao Ye treated her like that?"

Ziran's eyes lit up, "Maybe... more fishiness?"

Cheng Bingxi nodded, "Let's keep reading."

Everyone focused on the Soul Capturing Pearl.

"My husband treated me like that, but I brought this all on myself—I deserved it."

"I was too greedy, trying to win his love... I didn't deserve it."

"In my timeline,"

"Way back when Husband and that bitch Ziran first came to Hang City, I found out about their marriage. The first time I met Husband, I used my Saint Realm pressure to force him, then looked down my nose and mocked him, making him see the difference between himself and that bitch Ziran."

"I wanted to discourage him, make him give up on that bitch Ziran."

"So his very first impression of me was absolutely awful—disgust, rudeness, pushy, overbearing, never listened to anyone."

"Later, during the days he and that bitch Ziran spent in Hang City together, I tried over and over to talk that bitch Ziran into breaking up with him."

"Whenever that bitch Ziran got flirty with him, I'd always forcefully step in and cut her off."

"His impression of me just kept tanking to rock bottom."

"The worst thing I ever did was hold a knife to his neck, and strong-armed him into breaking his contract with that bitch Ziran..."

"Later on, I nearly died from going crazy with power, and that bitch Ziran begged Husband to save me."

"Husband gave me a full-body massage, he ended up so exhausted he was like a dog, and my impression of him changed."

"After a few massages, I gradually started liking him, and finally fell for him hard."

"But for him, his impression of me never changed from that first one—arrogant, rude, pushy, overbearing, knows it all, totally despised me."

"The only reason we got married was because that bitch Ziran begged with everything she had, and Husband barely agreed to marry me."

"Our wedding day was the happiest day of my life. Husband and I finally shared a wedding night!"

"But that was the only time. After that, he treated me like I was invisible—never showed affection, always kept me at arm's length. It didn't matter what I did, I could never shake that bad first impression he had of me."

"So, I spent a hundred years in a cold, empty room, sulking—a lonely woman hungry for love, staying pure all that time."

"Even after a hundred years, Husband never touched me again."

When the girls heard this, everything clicked.

Turned out, Qingcheng never cheated, never betrayed Xiao Ye.

*It was all the price and consequence of what Qingcheng did at the very beginning, in her own timeline!*

*All of Xiao Ye's frustration instantly vanished. At least he hadn't been cheated on.*

Ziran's face darkened, "So, according to Qingcheng, I helped her, and she still called me a bitch."

"Hmph, when we rescue the future Qingcheng, I'm definitely going to beat her up."

"I, Ziran, the number one beauty of the Imperial Capital, the pure goddess—how am I a bitch?"

"If I'm a bitch, it's only for Xiao Ye, and only him!"
