The Female Fox Spirit Gets Spoiled by the Big Shot - Chapter 167

Chapter 167

Zhi Yao shook her head vigorously, “No, I don’t know you!”

Her tone was absolutely firm. Zhi Yao had no idea what was going on, why Ji Qingpei could suddenly see her. She didn’t know Ji Qingpei at all.

“Stay away from me, you… you come any closer, I’ll call Pei Chiyao to beat you up! I’m telling you, Pei Chiyao is extremely, extremely fierce, you definitely can’t beat him!”

“Pei Chiyao?” Ji Qingpei repeated the name over and over, and after a while, he laughed.

For some reason, his smile seemed rather eerie.

Zhi Yao turned to run away, her heart pounding like thunder “thump thump thump,” so loud that even she could hear it. But unexpectedly, Ji Qingpei didn’t try to catch her?

As she ran, she looked back, that figure growing more and more distant, farther and farther away…

Zhi Yao didn’t even know how long she had run until she had no strength left. Just as she was finding a place to hide, suddenly someone slapped her shoulder heavily. Zhi Yao was so startled, she nearly jumped out of her skin.

“Yao Yao, where did you go just now?”

Only when she heard that familiar voice did Zhi Yao realize it was Pei Chiyao.

But when she saw the familiar face of the man, Zhi Yao didn’t easily trust him. Instead, she looked at him warily and said, “You… you’re Pei Chiyao?”

Pei Chiyao narrowed his eyes and clicked his tongue in slight annoyance.

Oh dear, the silly bunny had become even sillier.

“Who else would look like this besides me?”

“Ji Qingpei!” Zhi Yao blurted out without thinking.

“Say you’re Pei Chiyao, then… then I’ll ask you a question. If you answer correctly, I’ll believe you.”

Pei Chiyao: “…”

“What’s my favorite dish to eat?”𝒩ewW 𝒏ovels upd𝒂tes on nov/𝒆l/b(i)𝒏(.)com

“…Braised potatoes and chicken.” He rubbed his brow. “You’re a white fox, your biggest hobby is eating, you’re a bit silly, maybe not just a bit, but you’re quite cute. You have four older brothers, your father is called Ling Jue, your mother Zhi Yi, you’re 167 cm tall, weigh 45 kg, waist 58 cm, cup size C. Your skin feels very smooth, your tail is most sensitive, and when you pout you like to expose your belly.”

Zhi Yao’s mouth, which had been opening wider and wider, suddenly froze when she heard Pei Chiyao’s last sentence. She glared at him, her face flushed, and said, “Pervert.”

“You believe me now, right? Silly bunny.” He reached out and tapped Zhi Yao’s head, then regretted it, worried he might have made the silly fox even sillier.

“I believe you, I believe you.” Zhi Yao hugged her head and glared at Pei Chiyao again. “Do you know who I just met? So scary!”

“Ji Qingpei.” Even with a knee, Pei Chiyao knew.

“You’re so smart!” Zhi Yao looked at Pei Chiyao in surprise.

Pei Chiyao: “…” You just said it yourself a moment ago.

“Was he trying to capture you?”

Zhi Yao nodded vigorously.

“Yao Yao, listen to me.” Pei Chiyao pulled Zhi Yao into his embrace. “Things have gradually been developing in an uncontrollable direction for me now. I can’t guarantee what will happen next, but I have to tell you, Ji Qingpei was my previous life, but that doesn’t mean he is me.”

Zhi Yao froze for a moment. “What do you mean?”

This sentence sounded like a tongue twister!

“Remember, this is an illusion, a world where Ji Qingpei no longer exists. Ji Qingpei is long dead. Even if I’m his reincarnation, I can’t possibly be exactly the same as my previous self.”

A person’s character is not something innate that never changes. The surrounding environment, the people and things one encounters, all of these influence a person’s character.

Moreover, this was an illusion, which meant that everything here was false, perhaps even… designed by someone.

“What you see is all fake. From now on, don’t leave my side for even a step, understood?”

Zhi Yao was getting goosebumps. She hurriedly nodded again and said, “Then what should we do now? Still go find ‘me’?”

Since Pei Chiyao said this was an illusion, did it still make sense to find her former self? What if she wasn’t really herself anymore either?

“Yes.”

He couldn’t be certain what would happen next, but Pei Chiyao could confirm that everything here was based on events that had truly occurred before. This was one point that had not changed yet.

“I think Ji Qingpei might have mistaken you for your former self. Try to remember, where did you like to go most often?”

Where she liked to go most often…

“I liked lying in the fox den the most.”

As a silly fox, Zhi Yao had been lazing around since she was born.

“Where is the fox den?”

“It’s… it’s…” Zhi Yao pondered for a moment, then suddenly pointed to the distance and said, “I know, it’s over there, follow me quickly.”

Their fox tribe had moved many times before, each time because some vile hunter had found them, forcing the whole clan to relocate.

But every time they moved, Zhi Yao would sleep curled up in her mother’s tail, so she didn’t really know where they lived each time, only able to find it based on her hazy memories.

Originally, Pei Chiyao had wanted to stay in the town for a while to let Zhi Yao rest, but now there was no need, because too many things had happened unexpectedly. The sooner they found the culprit behind Zhi Yao’s seal, the sooner they could leave.

But the little girl had been busy all day and was completely exhausted.

Seeing her steps gradually grow weary, Pei Chiyao stopped. “Yao Yao, turn back into a fox. I’ll carry you.”

That would be faster as well.

Zhi Yao didn’t act coy – why not be lazy when she could? She immediately transformed, and a snowy white fox appeared at Pei Chiyao’s feet, raising its paws and pawing at his trousers, wanting to climb up.

The man bent down and scooped up the fox, tucking her into his pocket. “You lead the way.”

After what felt like a very long time – so long that Zhi Yao lost her sense of time – the familiar fox village finally appeared before them!

“We’re here, we’re here!” The little fox excitedly poked her head out of Pei Chiyao’s pocket. “We finally made it, Pei Chiyao!”

She darted straight out of his pocket, this was her home, a place that could give her a sense of security! As soon as she arrived, memories came rushing back, Zhi Yao was like an unbridled wild horse, dashing about in the woods.

“Come back.”

The man spoke in a calm tone, and after a while, the excited fox finally ran back.

“Pei Chiyao! I’ll take you to see where I grew up!”

She was so adorable when she was little! Although everyone said she was silly, her cuteness was undeniable!
