“Generally speaking, suddenly losing interest after intimacy is usually caused by physiological factors.” The counselor’s hand, hidden beneath the table, was trembling.
“Deep emotional connection consumes a great deal of energy. After excessive excitement, the brain’s nerve cells need time to relax. That exhaustion can affect your partner’s mood, so feeling irritable or impatient with your requests is quite normal,” the counselor took a deep breath.
“Your partner’s physical stamina is not as strong as yours, so they feel tired. What’s most important is mutual understanding. You can bring up the wedding again once your partner has had proper rest.”
Lei Beishuang nodded thoughtfully.
The scepter buzzed a few times and floated quickly in front of Lei Beishuang. “Master, there’s a message from the young master.”
The counselor observed the man’s expression change as he read—from heavy and uneasy to surprised, then finally to relaxed and happy.
Looks like it was good news.
When he finished reading, the counselor cautiously asked, “How do you feel about this session? Would you like to book another appointment?”
“No need.” Lei Beishuang stood up, said goodbye, and left the consultation room almost in a hurry.
By the time all the robots were repaired, it was getting late. Bo Ge rushed from the villa to the uninhabited zone. The aircraft soared over large barren lands and, before reaching the designated destination, suddenly came to a stop in the no-man’s zone and began to descend slowly.
The air was thick with floral fragrance. Bo Ge wrinkled his nose. As soon as he stepped out of the aircraft, he saw vast fields of Love Flowers, even more than the last time they suddenly became popular across the star network.
That competitive big cat…
A golden sphere floated to Bo Ge, a red bow tied around it. A small mechanical claw extended toward him, wrapping around his pinky and happily leading the way.
“You guys were at this for quite a while, huh?” Bo Ge smiled, a bit shy. From the time he messaged the big cat that afternoon to now, only four hours had passed, and this much was already prepared. It must have taken quite the effort.
“As long as it makes the young master happy, no effort is too much,” the scepter replied, sweet as honey.
Passing through a fiery red sea of Love Flowers, they came upon a field of white blossoms. On closer look, the flowers resembled white doves about to take flight. When the wind blew, they swayed like flocks of fluttering doves.
“Young master, from here, you’ll need to keep your eyes closed,” said the scepter, gently tying the red bow over Bo Ge’s eyes.
The next moment, Bo Ge felt the ground beneath him rise slightly, as though the entire surface was ascending.
He steadied himself, and once the ground stopped moving, the scepter guided him a bit farther, stepping onto a conveyor belt. After a short while, Bo Ge felt the small claw on his pinky release.
“Scepter?” Bo Ge raised his hand to remove the blindfold, but just then, someone approached and gently took off the fabric for him.
The world came back into focus, and the first thing Bo Ge saw was the man who had removed his blindfold.
Lei Beishuang had always been a refined leopard, without a single flaw. Today, he had groomed himself especially well—wearing a deep blue suit adorned with fine diamonds, every hair meticulously arranged, like a character stepping out of a comic book. His aura was extraordinary, and his golden-red eyes shimmered with warmth.
“Have I ever told you that I can do magic?” Lei Beishuang said with a smile.
“No, you haven’t,” Bo Ge couldn’t help but smile too.
With one hand holding the cloth from Bo Ge’s eyes, Lei Beishuang passed it through the other—and with a flick, it turned into a delicate Love Flower.
He held the flower and started to wave it. Before Bo Ge’s very eyes, the single flower multiplied—more and more appeared, like out of thin air—until it became a huge bouquet. “If one Love Flower means wholehearted love, what do 999 of them mean?”
“…That you’re rich?” Bo Ge answered honestly.
“They mean I want to be with you forever, until we grow old together,” Lei Beishuang said, kneeling on one knee, pulling a small box from his pocket and opening it to reveal a unique ring. Instead of a diamond, it had a small spinning orb.
“My adorable human Gu Gu, will you be my mate and have a few litters with me?”
So far, everything had gone according to Bo Ge’s request—there was surprise, flowers, a ring, and a one-knee proposal. All the details were beautifully arranged.
Bo Ge nodded in satisfaction. He had specifically emphasized the one-knee part, just in case the big cat went with both knees—like asking for New Year money.
“I do!” Bo Ge joyfully extended his hand, letting the big cat place the ring on his finger.
Suddenly, applause erupted. Bo Ge jumped in shock. Looking closer, over a dozen people had emerged from the flower fields—Hai Tu, the Lei family couple, and even the bald parrot had shown up.
“I didn’t say there should be an audience,” Bo Ge whispered.
“They’re witnesses. I have video proof.” Lei Beishuang whispered back. “You already accepted my proposal. No take-backs.”
Bo Ge shot the big cat a sideways glare.
This Gu is not someone who goes back on their word!
A small celebration followed. Everyone offered their blessings—Hai Tu wished Bo Ge academic success, Madam An Mei wished for many litters, the bald parrot wished him wealth…
When it was Lei Lanyang’s turn, the happily married man thought for a long while before wishing Lei Beishuang an allowance of at least 1,000 credits per month after marriage.
Everyone turned to look at Madam An Mei.
After the party, Bo Ge washed up and climbed into bed, admiring the ring on his finger with great satisfaction. He poked the nearby Lei Beishuang.
“Mimi, what kind of gem is this?”
“It’s not a gem,” Lei Beishuang replied in his pajamas. “It’s a gemstone planet.”
Bo Ge froze. “…A what now?”
“I bought it this afternoon. Though it cost a few dozen billion extra credits, I managed to win it in time.” Lei Beishuang flicked the little orb on the ring, and a projection of a planet appeared midair—complete with all its data and owner details.
The name listed as the owner of the planet was: Bo Ge.
Bo Ge stiffly turned his head to look at Lei Beishuang.
“This planet can produce over a hundred tons of Kasha gemstones every year. You can do whatever you want with it,” Lei Beishuang said casually, as if he had merely bought a toy to please someone.
Bo Ge stared blankly at the ring, then at Lei Beishuang, and silently gave him a thumbs-up.
“Can this even pay itself back?” Bo Ge asked, a bit worried, fiddling with the ring. Money’s not supposed to be spent like this…
“No need to think about that.” Lei Beishuang, now in pajamas, sat across from him. “Let’s play a game.”
“What game?” Bo Ge’s attention was instantly caught.
“Counting shoulders.” Lei Beishuang curled his lips into a smile and placed a hand on his own shoulder. “One, two.”
Then, he placed both hands on Bo Ge’s shoulders. “Three, four.”
Bo Ge tilted his head. What’s so fun about that?
The next second, the hands on Bo Ge’s shoulders gently pushed him down onto the bed, and the man’s body pressed over him.
—
The next day, Bo Ge didn’t wake until noon—and he could clearly feel the physical toll on his body.
The big leopard used his tail to trick Gu Gu, pinning Gu Gu’s legs down while using his swaying tail to distract him. Bo Ge thought maybe next time, he should bring a laser pointer to divert the big leopard’s attention too.
Time flew by. Bo Ge finally completed all his academic credits and received his admission letter from First Military Academy.
Just like in his previous life, when he got into his dream university, Bo Ge was excited and content, bouncing while hugging the big leopard’s arm. Seeing how happy Bo Ge was, Lei Beishuang immediately decided to help the First Military Academy upgrade a whole batch of teaching equipment.
—
On the first day of school, the entire combat division—and really, the entire academy—knew a human was joining the combat program.
That day, Lei Beishuang, posing as an alumnus, accompanied Bo Ge around the campus, ignoring the stares from other students as he low-key introduced him to a cozy nook in the archives, built out of books and professors’ robes.
Seeing Bo Ge’s curiosity, Lei Beishuang turned into his beast form and carried Bo Ge in by the collar.
They were quickly kicked out by the old professor in charge of the archives.
The black leopard happily strolled through campus with his human on his back, proudly showing off his beloved human—casually asserting ownership.
With everyone staring, Bo Ge tried to cover his face, but a human’s scent couldn’t be hidden.
Several students discreetly recorded the scene with their lightbrains. It didn’t take a genius to guess what would be trending on social media that afternoon.
“The academy is pretty strict. They might not allow family members in later. I’ll try to come give a few guest lectures,” the leopard reminded his human.
“No fighting with classmates—if there’s a grudge, let me handle it. When making friends, pay attention to their character. If someone likes you, make them give up quickly. And take care of yourself—if you get sick, tell me immediately. You’re the First Lady now, you’ve got an elite medical team…”
“We haven’t even registered our marriage yet,” Bo Ge reminded him.
“Marriage registration gives bonus credits,” the leopard looked up, trying to tempt him. “Two extra credits.”
“Really?” Bo Ge looked skeptical.
“Really! We can ask the principal if you don’t believe me,” the leopard swore earnestly.
—
In their second year, Bo Ge and Lei Beishuang registered their marriage. Thanks to the leopard’s tireless persuasion, Bo Ge actually did get two extra credits. The principal even encouraged Bo Ge to consider offspring—saying if he managed to produce a human child, he’d get ten bonus credits.
Bi Mu Yu’s (Yu Mumu’s) shop started booming. With help from Gu Gu behind the scenes, she opened a chain and became a young millionaire. After she and Hai Tu got rich together, they bought a besties’ retirement home and invited Gu Gu to visit.
—
On the eve of graduation, the black leopard nimbly climbed into Bo Ge’s single dorm. After “ambushing” Gu Gu that night, the next morning he lazily drew circles on Bo Ge’s stomach with his finger.
“Two more months and I’ll be forty,” the leopard said, his tone tinged with melancholy. “I’m really going to be a dad in my old age…”
Bo Ge stroked the leopard’s handsome face and secretly got a fertility injection. One day before the leopard’s 40th birthday, the hospital confirmed five successfully fertilized embryos.
The embryos were placed in an artificial womb. Whenever they had free time, Bo Ge and Lei Beishuang would visit them. Of the five embryos, four were beastfolk—three male, one female. One was human.
A little girl.
—
When the four baby leopards were born, Bo Ge’s heart melted. Their eyes still closed, the tiny wet cubs mewled softly for milk. Lei Beishuang gently guided the bottle to their mouths. The cubs sucked eagerly, and once full, flopped over to sleep.
The four baby leopards were brought home. Bo Ge lined up more than ten upgraded robots to serve as top-tier nannies, which saved them a lot of trouble.
When the four cubs opened their round little eyes and began snuggling up to Bo Ge like baby kiwis, the human baby finally finished growing and entered the world with a soft, weak cry.
Nice and Xiao Du now had a clear mission—dedicated to caring for the little master. Lei Beishuang cradled the tiny human infant, while Bo Ge had four kiwi-sized cubs clinging to him. They exchanged a look—and both were filled with joy.

How do you know a big leopard loves you?
When you call his name, he’ll answer.
He’ll sleep peacefully by your side.
If you reach out, he’ll come to you.
No matter how you tease him, he won’t ever bite.
And he’ll look at you deeply, and say:
“I can’t live without you.”
