Chapter 200: The Fox’s Suckling
Chapter 200
While Zhi Yao was getting her makeup done, she happened to overhear the people around her gossiping...
"Hey, have you noticed that Zhi Yao seems to be getting prettier and prettier?"
"I have, I have! Her skin is really getting better and better! It's like soft tofu! Every time I do her makeup, I can barely resist pinching her cheeks!"
"My goodness, what skincare products is she using? How can the results be so good?"
"It's hard to pinpoint exactly what's changed, but... she's just getting more and more beautiful and gorgeous."
Zhi Yao was already very beautiful and eye-catching, but now she had become so stunning that people couldn't bear to look away.
When people looked at Zhi Yao, they would often become entranced, bewitched by her beauty to the point of stopping their thoughts and holding their breath.
Although it might sound exaggerated to say it, this was actually true.
Zhi Yao looked at herself in the mirror and quietly touched her face with her hand. It did seem... to have become more youthful.
Was this the work of Spirit Energy?
Spirit Energy nourishing the body was indeed real.
Zhi Yao was very satisfied with this effect.
She had seen Yan Mu on set these past few days, but every time Yan Mu noticed Zhi Yao looking in her direction, she would suddenly avert her gaze, as if Zhi Yao might eat her up.
Of course, Zhi Yao had also seen the fox hidden in Yan Mu's bag.
She seemed... very afraid of Zhi Yao seeing him?
Without much thought, Zhi Yao knew it was Xie Qinzhou.
Xie Qinzhou now had no Spirit Energy and found it very difficult to transform into a human.
...
Yan Mu finished filming for the day and sneaked back to her dressing room.
She had hidden Xie Qinzhou in her bag. She had deliberately gotten a very large bag, but Xie Qinzhou was also quite big: he was the size of an adult fox, which was really a bit too large, so Yan Mu couldn't completely hide him.
But Yan Mu wasn't comfortable leaving Xie Qinzhou in the hotel. She was afraid that Zhi Yao and Pei Chiyao might change their minds... and she was also worried that Xie Qinzhou might get into some trouble on his own as a fox. Therefore, Yan Mu had no choice but to bring Xie Qinzhou with her.
She quickly opened the fox bag, but the scene before her eyes left Yan Mu completely stunned.
Where was the fox? Where was the fox?!
Where had Xie Qinzhou gone?!
Her calm heart could no longer remain composed at this moment.
"Xie Qinzhou!" Yan Mu called out in a hushed voice.
But no matter how much she called, there was no response.
Just as Yan Mu was about to cry from anxiety, suddenly, a large, fluffy tail appeared in front of her.
The next second, she was caught by that big tail around her ankle and pulled towards the sofa. With a "thump," Yan Mu fell sitting onto the sofa.
"So noisy."
Xie Qinzhou lazily opened his eyes, looking at the silly cat who kept chirping in front of him.
Yan Mu was frozen in place, unable to believe that Xie Qinzhou... could actually speak now?
"Y-y-you... you can actually talk now?"
"Shut up."
Although Xie Qinzhou was still a fox, Yan Mu could instantly see some expressions on his face.
For example, right now, those golden eyes were filled with impatient emotions, and she immediately closed her mouth.
"You think I'm as stupid as you? Heh, that Pei Chiyao thought he took all my Spirit Energy, but actually..."
Actually, he still had some left.
Although most of his Spirit Energy had been taken away, to the point where he couldn't even transform into human form now, and speaking human language was already his limit.
But...
Xie Qinzhou slightly curved his lips.
But he was a once-in-a-millennium prodigy of the fox clan. Recovering Spirit Energy wasn't just about self-cultivation.
He suddenly raised his eyes to look at Yan Mu.
The Spirit Energy on this stupid cat... seemed quite good.
Although the Spirit Energy on her body was pitifully little, it was... barely enough for him to turn back into a human.
"Stupid cat, come here."
He lazily waved his tail.
Yan Mu didn't understand, but Xie Qinzhou's appearance was so adorably cute that she couldn't resist. Although Yan Mu herself was also a fluffy, cute animal, she really loved foxes!
Especially since this was Xie Qinzhou!
She approached without much thought.
The next second, she saw the fox struggling to stand up, his front paws resting on her thighs, his forehead pressing against hers. They were very, very close...
It was as if... they were about to kiss.
Yan Mu immediately closed her eyes nervously, overlooking the flash of danger in the fox's eyes.
Just as Xie Qinzhou was about to make his move, with a "bang," the dressing room door was kicked open.
This sudden loud noise startled Yan Mu, causing her to push Xie Qinzhou away, flinging him to the ground.
"Puff!" Xie Qinzhou nearly coughed up blood. After all, his injuries hadn't healed yet!
Zhi Yao stood at the doorway with her arms crossed, looking at the fox lying on the ground with a near-fainting expression, inwardly sneering.
This Xie Qinzhou, truly a leopard can't change its spots.
Yan Mu stood up nervously, looking at Zhi Yao, "Yao Yao, why... why are you here?"
Zhi Yao looked at Yan Mu's innocent expression, and for some reason, she really couldn't bring herself to tell Yan Mu the truth.
She seemed... to really like Xie Qinzhou.
At this moment, Yan Mu was as naive as her own foolish self from the past. Zhi Yao really couldn't bear to hurt her.
So, she casually changed the subject, "Nothing, I just came to... pet the fox."
Pet the fox?
This statement left Yan Mu completely puzzled. What fox was Zhi Yao petting? Wasn't she a fox herself?
Then, Yan Mu saw Zhi Yao dash to Xie Qinzhou's side in one swift movement, and then... she scooped up the fallen Xie Qinzhou into her arms.
She vigorously rubbed Xie Qinzhou's fur up and down, left and right.
That action directly woke up the nearly unconscious Xie Qinzhou.
It had to be said... Xie Qinzhou's fur felt extremely good.
As soon as Zhi Yao touched it, she couldn't let go. No wonder that old pervert Pei Chiyao liked to touch her so much!
"Quick, come and feel it too, it's really comfortable."
Zhi Yao looked up at Yan Mu, who was standing to the side in a daze, and sincerely invited her to join in petting the fox.
"Me?" Yan Mu was very surprised and also a bit hesitant to come forward, because at this moment, Xie Qinzhou, who was lying in Zhi Yao's arms being stroked and looking utterly defeated, was staring at her with a murderous gaze.
"Maybe I shouldn't..."
Before she could finish refusing, Zhi Yao grabbed Yan Mu's hand and placed it on Xie Qinzhou's belly.
"Go on, pet him! Don't be shy, give it a good rub!"
That soft, fluffy belly instantly made Yan Mu...
