The Female Fox Spirit Gets Spoiled by the Big Shot

So it turns out that Baby is actually a bodyguard.

Zhi Yao couldn't quite describe how she felt about this, but there was definitely an element of amusement to it.

The young girl sighed and said, "Fortunately, I was safe this time because Baby protected me, but the others... weren't so lucky."

In fact, both Jiang Cheng and Yan Mu had been injured.

Ultimately, it was all He Kaiting's fault.

Zhi Yao still felt a bit guilty about Jiang Cheng, but at the same time... she thought He Kaiting was too cruel. She and Jiang Cheng were supposed to be friends, yet she could be so heartless towards him...

Thinking of Jiang Cheng, Zhi Yao wanted to go see him, but... she stealthily glanced up at Pei Chiyao, a bit afraid he might go berserk.

Zhi Yao had just witnessed Pei Chiyao's jealous streak, so she didn't dare provoke him lightly.

After catching Zhi Yao's gaze, Pei Chiyao realized what she wanted to do.

However, to Zhi Yao's surprise, Pei Chiyao didn't get angry. "I've already gone to see him for you. He's still in the ICU. The agency will handle his affairs, and I've already provided evidence of He Kaiting bribing the martial arts instructor to his manager. The manager will sue He Kaiting when the time comes."

And on his end, he absolutely wouldn't let He Kaiting off easy. fгeewebnovёl.com

The man's eyes darkened, and just as Zhi Yao was about to speak, Pei Chiyao's phone rang.

He didn't hesitate and answered the call right in front of Zhi Yao.

Shortly after the call connected, Pei Chiyao's tone suddenly became grave, "What? She escaped? How could she have escaped?!"

His tone was full of disbelief.

The person on the other end said something, and Pei Chiyao's expression gradually faded. "I understand. Keep searching. No matter what, you must find her!"

He hung up the phone.

From Pei Chiyao's tone and conversation, Zhi Yao seemed to be able to guess what he was talking about.

"Is it... Has He Kaiting disappeared?"

Pei Chiyao nodded, glancing at Zhi Yao. That look made Zhi Yao feel uneasy.

"What's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?"

"I'm wondering... if she might come back for you."

Such an incident happening once was enough to make Pei Chiyao anxious and worried. He absolutely couldn't let it happen again!

"For the next few days, you'll stay here. I'll inform the Ling Family and have them take turns protecting you." Pei Chiyao's expression was unusually serious.

Zhi Yao couldn't help but reach out and grab Pei Chiyao's hand, saying, "What about you? Where are you going? I don't care, you have to stay with me."

"I need to take care of something. I'll be back to accompany you soon, okay?" fгeewebnovёl.com

"What do you need to take care of?" The young girl gazed at Pei Chiyao and said, "Don't keep secrets from me. If you hide things from me, it means you don't like me! I'll run away with Baby."

Hearing this, Pei Chiyao couldn't help but laugh.

His little girl was still like a child, so adorable, actually using running away from home to threaten him.

He ruffled Zhi Yao's hair and said, "I need to go find the He Family."

The He Family?!

Just as Zhi Yao was about to ask further, the door to the hospital room opened again, and Ling Si, who had left earlier, returned.

Ling Si was surprised to see the people in the room, "You're here again?"

Zhi Yao: "..."

"Fourth Brother, did you need something from us?"

Ling Si stared at Zhi Yao and said, "Strictly speaking, I'm not looking for you. I'm looking for Mother."

Looking for Mother?

"Yao Yao, have you seen Mother?"

She hadn't seen her!

"I don't know. Shouldn't Mother be with Father?"

At the mention of Ling Jue, Ling Si felt a headache coming on.

He was the first to discover that Mother was missing. He had quietly informed the others just now but didn't tell Ling Jue.

If Ling Jue knew that Zhi Yi was missing, he would probably go completely mad.

"Don't tell Father about this for now. You all know what his temperament is like. If we tell him, everyone will probably end up going crazy along with him."

Ling Si was a bit anxious, "How could this happen? Yao Yao, you're back now, Mother shouldn't have any reason to run away!"

Even if Mother didn't like them, didn't like Father, but... but Zhi Yao was still here, not to mention that Zhi Yao was pregnant. Given Zhi Yi's personality, she would never leave Zhi Yao behind no matter what.

All these signs indicated that Zhi Yi might be in trouble.

Zhi Yao immediately became nervous, "How is that possible! How could Mother be in trouble!"

In Zhi Yao's eyes, her mother was the most capable mother in the whole world.

Her mother wasn't an ordinary fox, but a Nine-Tailed Red Fox, the most spiritually powerful fox in the entire Fox Clan. Not only was she beautiful, but most importantly, Mother was very clever.

Otherwise, how could she have escaped the wolf pack's pursuit and brought Zhi Yao back to the Fox Clan?

This was what made Zhi Yi formidable.

"I'm not sure at the moment, but in any case, if you see Mother, you must tell me immediately, understand?"

Zhi Yao nodded slightly and said, "I understand."

But she was still very worried and nervous, "Pei Chiyao, please help look for Mother too. I'm always worried that something might happen to her."

"Don't worry, I'll have people search for her right away."

The three of them were lost in worried thoughts, not noticing that the white cat lying nearby suddenly stood up with a grave expression, as if struck by an extremely bold guess.

"Xie Qinzhou... Xie Qinzhou is missing."

She suddenly blurted out this sentence.

This statement completely focused the attention of all three people on her.

"What did you say?!"

Zhi Yao was very surprised, "You're saying... what happened to Xie Qinzhou?"

"I came here firstly to apologize and check on you, and secondly to tell you this news."

Yan Mu looked at Zhi Yao with deep remorse, though she hadn't expected that she would faint directly and remain unconscious for so long.

"Why didn't you say so earlier!"

This was the first time Zhi Yao had spoken to Yan Mu with such agitation.

The young girl was anxious beyond measure, "Xie Qinzhou already held a grudge against Mother and me, and now I've caused him to lose his spiritual power. He must hate me even more. Could he... could he have kidnapped Mother to take revenge on me?!"

Yan Mu nervously clutched the blanket and said, "But he has no spiritual power left now. How could he possibly defeat your Mother? And kidnapping your Mother doesn't seem very likely either."

It wasn't that Yan Mu was defending Xie Qinzhou; she was voicing the very things that Zhi Yao found puzzling.

Just as she was at a loss for what to do, a message notification sound came from the phone under her pillow.
