At the end of the day, Bai Yi didnât understand mortals. She thought that if they couldnât remember things, everything would be fine. She, however, didnât know that âcanât rememberâ was the most unusual thing. Even if it was due to a nightmare, the state that the master and servant of the Jiang family were in the yard looked no different from being possessed by evil spirits, right?
The matriarch of the Jiang family firmly believed in this. She insisted that they were tainted with dirty things and instructed the housekeeper to invite another Daoist master with real talent.
The housekeeper was busy searching for one. He secretly inquired about a Daoist master with real skills and went to invite him.
Zhuang Liu received her money and lived happily. She didnât do anything at home and just waited for Bai Yi to take care of her. She lived in extreme comfort. She didnât pay attention to the affairs of Jiangâs family at all, so naturally she didnât know that something happened to Miss Jiang. With no worries, she urged Zhuang Yulang to study all day long.
Zhuang Yulang was almost breathless from her constant monitoring. In the past, his mother was a beautiful symbol for him, gentle, strong and kind. But now, Zhuang Liu has become greedy, selfish and unreasonableâŠ
Zhuang Liuâs many, many flaws that he found unacceptable were revealed. The more he found her horrendous, the more he felt disinclined to stay at home.
Thus, the cave on the outskirts became her refuge from Zhuang Liu. There was a pair of beautiful and obedient foxes there, playing with him all the time to cheer him up. He sometimes took Bai Yi with him, but most of the time Zhuang Liu ordered Bai Yi to do something, so he went by himself.
Moreover, Zhuang Liu seemed to have more and more opinions against Bai Yi and hated him getting along with her. To avoid Zhuang Liuâs nagging, he naturally reduced the time he spent with Bai Yi.
In the past few days, Bai Yi mastered her Diversionary Technique more and more. Be it turning something into a fake fox or a fake Bai Yi, she could easily deceive the Zhuang mother and son. Anyway, she always got along with Zhuang Yulang, and the happiness she enjoyed every day was real.
When she was in her fox form, she listened to Zhuang Yulang talking about his dissatisfaction with Zhuang Liu while carrying her, the pressure of studying, and his affection for Bai Yi. He poured all the things he couldnât say to others to the little fox. When Bai Yi heard this, all she felt was that she had become the closest existence to her benefactor.
When she was Bai Yi, Zhuang Yulang would also tell her about the little fox and how much he liked it, which also made Bai Yi very happy.
Under this manner of getting along, her heart was also moved.
She folded a paper crane and transmitted a voice to Chu Xiang: Xiangâer, what should I do? I seem to be in love with Benefactor! H-He also likes me. What do you think?⊠Should I marry him? After I marry him, I wash and cook for him, give birth to a few lovely children for him, and then help him rise to the top. Iâll keep him safe and happy. Isnât that just repaying his kindness?
Chu Xiang was on her way back to the town when she received the voice transmission. She replied to Bai Yi with a question mark on her face:Â Have you been bewitched? Did a donkey kick you in the head? Have you cultivated for hundreds of years just to do this?
Li Yufeng couldnât stop laughing and spat next to her, âItâs only been a few days since you havenât watched her and sheâs already gone astray? Oh, thatâs not right either. Arenât those what many women do? They assist their husband and educate their children. There is nothing wrong with it, right? The mortal and demon paths are the only difference. Itâs not easy to handle.â
Chu Xiang squinted at him. âWhy is a man exempted from taking care of his wife and children? Bai Yi is so much better than that scholar. She just had to hide herself and pretend to be a weak woman and be subservient to him. Is she sick?â
Li Yufeng was immune to her various ideals, so he patted the back of his head and said, âBeing a wife and teaching oneâs children sound good to me. Xiangxiang, what do you think of me? I am very obedient and especially suitable to be a good husband, no, a boy husband. Also, I can also help you fight bad Daoist masters, track people and inquire about some news. Wouldnât you say Iâm a perfect ten in everything? I couldnât be any better, right?â
âHuh?â Chu Xiang glanced at him. âAre you the fox demon or am I? Why do I get the feeling youâve been flirting all day?â
âNo⊠not all day, just a few days.â Li Yufeng watched her walk backwards in front of him. He said with a smile, âThink about it, donât you like good-looking people? I look pretty! Donât you like someone capable? I am capable! Besides, donât you like obedient ones? Iâm obedient! I am the image of a fox demon? That means we are predestined!â
Chu Xiang raised her hand and pushed him aside. âWarming the bed depends on your performance. Track those three stinky Daoist masters first and stop talking nonsense here.â
âOn it, Iâll find them for you right away!â Li Yufeng took out an Eight Trigrams Disc and began to look for directions.
They had followed some traces before to find the three Daoist masters, but it turned out that they were gone. They searched for new traces again and unexpectedly returned to the city. It seemed that those three people hadnât received news of their companions and decided to come over to look for them personally.
Li Yufeng and Chu Xiang found the three Daoist masters outside the city just in time to see someone invite them into a carriage.
Li Yufeng frowned slightly, and after careful identification, he said, âIsnât that the Jiang Manorâs carriage? Why did they invite those Daoist masters? Iâve never heard that they had any relationship!â
Chu Xiang stretched her waist and said, âIsnât it because youâre not well-informed?â
âHow is it possible? Who am I? I am known as the best in the world! There is nothing in this world that I donât know!â
