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

With those insane coaxing skills, even as her father-in-law, he had to admit defeat.

What a good deed!

Liu Huo grinned—*as long as the young couple lived a happy life, that was all he needed.*

Then, he left the academy.

He planned to ask Xiao Ye out for a chat tomorrow.

On the other side,

The Three-toed Golden Dragon and the Holy Two-tailed White Fox still acted like cultivation maniacs in the underground cultivation room, training diligently and nonstop. The mysterious contract feedback constantly made Xiao Ye stronger with every moment.

On the first floor of the villa, Xiao Ye and Liu Ya snuggled together on the sofa.

Suddenly, the tablet that Liu Ya had left on the table lit up, and a series of indescribable "mmhm" sounds played from it.

"Mm~"

Xiao Ye's eyes narrowed as he glanced in surprise at the tablet.

When he saw the indescribable little video on it, his jaw dropped into the shape of an O.

*Holy shit, even the most pure and noble teaching goddess secretly watches those raunchy videos for commoners?*

Liu Ya's pretty face flushed with embarrassment, and she hurriedly leaned forward, reaching out to turn off the tablet.

But Xiao Ye stopped her movements. He grabbed her soft little hand, raised an eyebrow, and said,

"Sister Liu Ya, what's this?" Notefromtheeditor:AlwayscheckMV2LEMPYRforcorrections.

"!" Liu Ya's face was awkward as hell, and she stammered, "Th-this, this is…"

Her cheeks were rosy as hell—she was so embarrassed, she didn't even know what to say.

Shy as she was, she broke free from Xiao Ye's grip, and with lightning speed, she shut off the tablet.

Now that the sounds and images were gone, Liu Ya's face slowly returned to normal. She glared at him and said,

"Aiya, it's nothing, okay!"

Xiao Ye looked at her with eyes like he had discovered a whole new world.

*So "Sister TA" was totally different in private compared to her public image!*

Liu Ya's pretty face turned red again from his stare. *Admit to watching those videos all the time? No way.* Then she argued,

"Actually, I was just learning new things. You know, as a teacher, I need to keep expanding my knowledge."

Xiao Ye tried not to laugh and pretended to agree, "Mhm, learning new things (new positions), right!"

"Exactly!" Her eyes lit up. "Every week I have to add new stuff to my teaching."

Xiao Ye's mouth twitched, barely holding in his laughter, "Every week?"

Liu Ya thought her excuse worked, so she nodded hard, "Yeah! That's right!"

Xiao Ye couldn't hold it—he burst out laughing, "Hahaha, Sister Liu Ya, is that position even proper?"

Liu Ya's face turned beet red, her quick-lie had failed. Her delicate cheeks puffed up with embarrassment and fake anger. She pounced on Xiao Ye, sounding fierce-but-cute as she admitted,

"Hmph! It's only to punish you that I have to keep learning new positions!"

"I lost when I kissed you just now, but this time, I'm taking it back! Mm-hm!"

Watching Liu Ya attack like a hungry wolf, Xiao Ye's eyelids twitched nonstop.

*Here I go, being a puppet again…*

Two hours later,

Xiao Ye lay numbly on the sofa. He'd lost, and lost big time.

*Not only did I never break through her defenses, even begging for mercy didn't work.*

Liu Ya looked energetic and smug, victorious glow all over her face, "Hmph, learning new things really does pay off, finally got my win back."

Xiao Ye, …

*I shouldn't have laughed so hard just now…*

*The harder I laughed, the harder Liu Ya went after me.*

*You know what they say: there are only exhausted bulls, never ruined fields.*

*But I couldn't even get past her defenses—couldn't "plow the field" at all!*

"Pfft!" Liu Ya giggled charmingly, shooting Xiao Ye a flirty glare.

She sensed Xiao Ye's internal frustration, so she took the initiative and changed the subject,

"A hundred and fifty years ago, when I found out my last Contractor was two-timing, I stormed off to catch him in the act."

Hearing it, Xiao Ye was instantly interested—*catching a cheater? Damn, that's wild!*

Liu Ya leaned against Xiao Ye's chest, continuing,

"It took three days to get him. The first day was at some club—the jerk ran off, so I didn't catch him."

"Second day, I tried again at his mistress's house, but he ran off again—failed to catch him cheating."

Xiao Ye's mouth twitched. *Two failed attempts? Man, catching a cheater is tough as hell.*

Liu Ya's pretty face suddenly got excited: "Heehee! But on the third day—yep, day three—I finally succeeded at home!"

"I was supposed to teach all morning and wouldn't have come back, but I forgot my textbook. When I went home to grab it, caught him red-handed on the spot."

*In her heart, she still held so much hate—it sounded like she was telling someone else's story.*

"Heehee! Right then, I snipped off the bastard's 'tool.'"

As she said it, Liu Ya's sparkling eyes glanced at Xiao Ye's lower half, making him feel an icy chill down there.

Xiao Ye, *The hell you looking at me for?*

"After that, I forcibly broke the contract with that bastard!"

"Good thing the loser was blind—never even appreciated how pretty I am. He never once touched me, barely ever even held my hand—heehee!"

"Maybe it was fate, but that trash, only at Stage Three of the Mortal Realm, got killed by a Beast Tide that very day—totally deserved it!"

Liu Ya was pretty hyped up, unable to stop talking.

*Xiao Ye could tell—Liu Ya and her last Contractor had no feelings for each other.*

But right after, Liu Ya's mood sank. Tears welled up in her eyes, her throat tightened, and she started sobbing softly.

"!" Xiao Ye was startled. "What's wrong? Are you that sad he died?"

Liu Ya slapped Xiao Ye, protesting, "Of course not! I couldn't be happier that bastard died!"

Xiao Ye wiped away the tears from her smooth, pretty face, speaking gently, "Then what are you crying for?"

"My mom died in that same Beast Tide!" Suddenly, Liu Ya's sadness turned into hate.

"Back then, my dad insisted on taking an outside mission. Then the Beast Tide hit, and both he and my mom ran into it outside the city."

"If they'd stayed inside the city instead of taking that mission, with their Great Venerable Realm power, they probably would have survived."

"So tell me, wasn't it his fault my mom died?"

Liu Ya buried herself in Xiao Ye's arms, crying her heart out.

Xiao Ye gently patted her back.

He quietly stayed by her side.

Just like that, Liu Ya drifted off to sleep, with Xiao Ye cuddled up, falling asleep as well.

The next day,

Waking up in Xiao Ye's arms, Liu Ya blushed, quickly wriggling free, and hurried downstairs to the underground cultivation room to check on the two Summoned Beasts' training.

Xiao Ye needed to go to the training base to host a bunch of disciples, so he got moving as well.

At the forked road by the Modu Academy gate, he ran into a slovenly, stubbly, tobacco-scented man with white hair.

Xiao Ye's eyes narrowed. This guy was Liu Ya's father, aka his father-in-law.

When Liu Huo saw him, his eyes immediately lit up. He hurried over, saying, "Hey, brother, let's go, Uncle's got something to talk to you about."

Xiao Ye raised an eyebrow, saying, "Going to a private club for good deeds?"

"Shall we? Yesterday's session felt pretty damn good."

Liu Huo, …

*Yesterday, I didn't know you were my son-in-law, so I brought you to the club for a "foot massage."*

*Now that I know your identity, should I still bring you to do good deeds? What kind of father-in-law brings his son-in-law out for a "foot massage?" If Liu Ya ever found out, she'd skin me alive and hate me even more!*

"No, no, today we've got different plans, promise you'll enjoy it!" Liu Huo put his arm around Xiao Ye's shoulder, heading toward a certain place.

[Maid Tavern]

Staring at the fancy sign, Liu Huo secretly mused, *Having a drink here should be all right…*
