After the Fairy Maidens Fell to Darkness, They Captured Me to Ruthlessly 'Repay' Their Gratitude-Chapter 43 - Beautiful Tail

The commotion finally ended.

Xia Ranyue lay exhausted on the bed. Although nothing had actually happened between her and He Ange, the intense situation had drained her energy, leaving her feeling both relieved and shaken.

She had genuinely thought she might lose her virginity today…

When He Ange had stopped, her heart was still racing, unable to calm down. His ability to control himself so effortlessly left her feeling unsettled.

It was as if her body had prepared itself for the worst, only for him to reveal it was all a joke.

Rationally, Xia Ranyue knew she should be grateful, but emotionally, she felt a bit unfulfilled.

She had expected something more from this ordeal…

“Wait, what am I even expecting?” she muttered, slapping her flushed cheeks.

It was then she realized her fox tail had been exposed the entire time, wagging back and forth excitedly. Clearly, her body had been reacting to the situation.

Glancing up, she noticed He Ange staring at her tail with a look of fascination, as if he had discovered a new, adorable toy.

This look was much more comforting than the earlier, purely lustful gaze.

But still…

He Ange’s constant staring at her tail made Xia Ranyue feel a bit self-conscious. Fox demons didn’t usually let humans see their tails.

“Can I touch it?” he suddenly asked, his eyes filled with longing.

“No! Only my family has ever been allowed to touch my tail. You’re not worthy!” she snapped, her tone firm.

Despite her stern words, her tail continued to wag, even more energetically now that He Ange had expressed interest.

In moments of heightened emotion, canine-like creatures often reveal their true nature.

Apparently, fox demons were no different.

“But your tail looks like it really wants to be touched,” He Ange pointed out.

It was then that Xia Ranyue realized her tail was betraying her. She quickly turned and tried to cover it with her hands, struggling to keep it still.

Turning back to face him, her cheeks flushed, she stammered, “Who told you that a wagging tail means it wants to be touched? That’s like saying a girl wearing a short skirt is asking to be harassed! It’s disgusting!”

She was trying to sound righteous, but her tail continued to wag behind her.

He Ange couldn’t help but laugh at her attempts to cover up.

“Alright, alright. I’m sorry,” he said, raising his hands in mock surrender.

“Why are you laughing?” she demanded.

“I’m not laughing. I just think your tail is adorable. I’ve never seen anything like it before. It’s fascinating,” he explained.

“What’s so fascinating about it? You humans are so self-absorbed. Just because my tail wagged a few times, you think it wants to be touched? Ridiculous,” she huffed, still trying to argue her point.

But as she turned away, her tail started wagging again, completely betraying her true feelings.

It was like her tail had a mind of its own, completely separate from her body.

He Ange gave her a thumbs-up, impressed by her ability to keep arguing despite the obvious.

“You’re still laughing at me! You haven’t stopped!” she accused.

“I’m not laughing…”

“Well, I’m not letting you touch it! Laugh all you want! I, Xia Ranyue, would rather jump off a cliff than let you touch my tail like a dog!”

…

By six in the evening, He Ange was sitting in his dormitory’s living room, sipping tea and relaxing.

Xia Ranyue had kicked him out of the bedroom.

Her reason? He kept laughing at her and staring at her tail with a lustful look. She had claimed she needed to “discipline” her disobedient tail and had sent him away.

He Ange decided to humor her, treating her like a girl on her period, giving her space to calm down.

Eventually, Xia Ranyue emerged from the bedroom.

She had freshened up, her tail no longer visible, and her face had only a faint blush. The natural flush on her cheeks, combined with her inherent beauty, made her look stunning.

He Ange always preferred natural beauty, like An Luo Yi or Xu Xin—girls without too much pretense or guile.

That was his type.

“You look beautiful tonight, Senior Sister,” he complimented, taking a sip of tea.

This time, Xia Ranyue didn’t blush or wag her tail. She simply turned her head away, letting out a haughty humph, as if accepting the compliment as her due.

He Ange continued, “Are you still planning to go?”

He was referring to the black market.

Xia Ranyue nodded. She had come to find He Ange for this reason, and she wasn’t about to back out now.

“So, you’re agreeing to my terms?” he asked.

“But you still haven’t told me what strange outfit I’m supposed to wear,” she grumbled.

“It’s not that strange, really. Especially not on you,” he said, giving her a once-over and chuckling.

He hadn’t given her the outfit yesterday because he hadn’t decided what she should wear. But seeing her fluffy tail and other fox demon traits today had given him plenty of inspiration.

He snapped his fingers.

Under her curious gaze, He Ange pulled a black-and-white outfit from his storage ring.

He handed it to Xia Ranyue and gestured for her to change in the bedroom.

She examined the clothes, surprised by the quality.

“You used pure cotton? The craftsmanship is impressive,” she noted.

“Of course. You’ve got a good eye,” he replied.

“Don’t get cocky. I’m just surprised,” she retorted, taking the outfit and heading to the bedroom.

A quick glance told her the fabric was high-quality, and the black-and-white lace design was quite pretty. Her initial impression was that it would be a cute dress.

However, the style and design were a bit unusual…

Xia Ranyue had never seen a dress like this before.

…

…

Half an hour later, the bedroom door opened.

He Ange set down his tea and turned to look, only to be captivated by the sight of Xia Ranyue in a lace-trimmed maid outfit.

The outfit was primarily black, with white lace accents. Stars adorned the hem of the dress and the thigh-high stockings.

In short, it was a maid outfit.

Thanks to He Ange’s meticulous design, it was shorter than traditional maid outfits, with black stockings accented by white lace, making her legs look even more enticing.

Xia Ranyue noticed his appreciative gaze and felt self-conscious, pressing her legs together. She had never worn such long stockings before, and they made her legs feel unusually sensitive.

“What kind of outfit is this? It feels so strange,” she complained.

“In my homeland, it’s called a cosplay maid outfit,” he explained.

“Maid?”

“Never mind if you don’t get it. There’s one last accessory you need to complete the look,” he said, rummaging through his storage ring.

“What is it?” she asked, curious despite herself.

She had to admit, the outfit was cute and comfortable, fitting her aesthetic preferences.

But something about it felt off. The stockings and lace were styles she had never encountered before.

“Oh, here it is,” He Ange said, pulling out a fluffy white toy.

He tossed it to Xia Ranyue, who examined it with a puzzled expression.

“What is this? It looks like a tail,” she remarked.

“Exactly. It’s a faux fox tail made of silk threads,” he explained.

“Huh?”

“You need to attach it to the back of your maid outfit. It’s the final touch to your ensemble. The full name is ‘Fox Maid,’” he said.

“Are you messing with me?” she asked, raising an eyebrow.

“I’m already a fox demon. Why would I need a fake tail to pretend to be a fox?”

“If you don’t like it, you can wear the outfit with your real tail. I don’t mind,” he said nonchalantly.

“Fine, I’ll use the fake one. I don’t want to reveal my true form in the black market,” she conceded.

“Good.”

Their conversation ended, and Xia Ranyue took the fluffy tail back to the bedroom.

It was just a toy, after all. Attaching it shouldn’t be too difficult…

But as she tried to figure out how to attach it to her dress, she discovered a long, silicone hook inside the toy.

“?”

She examined the tail closely, her brows furrowing in confusion.

Then, she made a startling realization.

Bang!

She burst out of the bedroom, her face flushed with anger and tears in her eyes. Pointing an accusatory finger at He Ange, she shouted,

“He Ange!!!”

“What’s the meaning of this tail with a plug attached?!”
