Zhi Yao retracted her gaze, looking at White Fox sympathetically. Although she was not of the same fox clan, she was still of the same species.

Zhi Yao could tell that this was a real fox cub. She went closer to White Fox and asked, "???" Where is your owner?

White Fox timidly raised her eyes and looked into the distance, but did not see her owner there.

Her owner...abandoned her.

She lowered her head with a whine, her wounds stinging sharply.

Zhi Yao really could not bear to see this. "???" You stay here and wait for me!

She hurriedly went to Pei Ning's side and bit down on Pei Ning's skirt.

After tugging hard several times, Pei Ning finally noticed Zhi Yao. "What's wrong?"

Zhi Yao raised her paw to point at White Fox, "#!@¥#@!"

She cursed and swore at White Fox's owner. Seeing White Fox covered in wounds, Pei Ning was also shocked. "Oh my god, what on earth happened?!"

She hurried over, "She's lost so much blood. Where is her owner?"

Pei Ning's voice quickly attracted the attention of other residents. A young girl spoke up, "I remember this fox. It seems like someone abandoned her! She's been wandering around Jin Palace for a few days, just getting by rummaging through trash cans every day."

No wonder this fox's fur was so dirty all over!

Pei Ning then remembered, that's right! She had seen this fox before too!

"With such heavy injuries, she'll definitely die if not treated."

The people around whispered amongst themselves.

Zhi Yao really could not stand to keep watching. No matter what, this was still one of her kind. She could not just watch as she died.

She anxiously paced around Pei Ning, "???" Save her! Save her!

Pei Ning was also somewhat reluctant to do nothing.

She bent down and picked up White Fox. "Let's go! Home! Call the pet doctor!"

Zhi Yao hurriedly followed behind Pei Ning.

Soon, the pet doctor arrived. He simply bandaged White Fox, "Further checks will need to be done at the hospital. From what I can see so far, this fox has only external injuries. No way to tell yet if there are internal injuries."

Pei Ning nodded. She looked at Zhi Yao worriedly, "Little fox, why not...I'll take this fox with me? My cousin is allergic to other animals...Plus he really doesn't like seeing them."

Zhi Yao made a sound of agreement.

She knew Pei Chiyao was not allergic to her because she was not an ordinary fox. But it was different for this little fox.

If Pei Chiyao had an allergic reaction because of her saving this fox, that would not be good.

Pei Ning carried the fox, about to bring it home. Her house was in a villa just a few buildings over, very close by, which was why she could come see Zhi Yao every day.

Zhi Yao sent Pei Ning to the door, but suddenly seemed to recall something. She anxiously started pacing around.

Pei Ning did not understand at first what Zhi Yao was trying to get across. But when she saw Zhi Yao suddenly flip forward, she immediately understood and laughed, "Don't worry, I'll take good care of her."

She had always wanted Zhi Yao, but Zhi Yao was her cousin's beloved pet - there's no way her cousin would let her have Zhi Yao.

Today, out of the blue, there was an extra fox. It must also be fate.

Hearing this, Zhi Yao finally relaxed.

She gave White Fox more advice in that language Pei Ning couldn't understand. Only after she was done did she finally let Pei Ning leave.

Wondering when Pei Chiyao would be back.

Zhi Yao leaped back onto the sofa.

As if responding to Zhi Yao's thoughts, before long Pei Chiyao returned.

The little fox's ears picked up the sound from the doorway instantly. She rushed over at once.

She spotted Pei Chiyao right away, circling around his footsteps incessantly.

"???" Pei Chiyao, why did you only just get back?

Pei Chiyao bent down and picked up the little fox.

He was very pleased at how clingy Zhi Yao was with him.

He also immediately noticed the skirt Zhi Yao was wearing.

"Pei Ning came by?"

Zhi Yao nodded.

"Cute skirt." Pei Chiyao looked Zhi Yao up and down. The skirt made the little fox even more adorable.

However, Pei Chiyao's smile froze abruptly when he caught an unfamiliar scent on Zhi Yao.

He looked at Zhi Yao with an inscrutable expression, "Other than Pei Ning, did you meet anyone else today?"

Zhi Yao was startled. She carefully thought back before shaking her head after some time.

Other than that fox, she had not met anyone else.

But Pei Chiyao's face had darkened completely.

He was very sensitive to smells, especially Zhi Yao's. He had marked her with his own exclusive scent.

Right now, the sandalwood scent belonging uniquely to him was being covered up by another indescribable scent.

The sky-high possessiveness in his heart swallowed up Pei Chiyao's calm in an instant.

He took a deep breath, carrying Zhi Yao to the bathroom and started running the water. Sᴇaʀch* Thᴇ N0vᴇlFire(.)nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

Zhi Yao did not understand what was happening, but she could sense Pei Chiyao was in a terrible mood.

"???" Pei Chiyao, what's wrong with you?

The little thing kept circling around Pei Chiyao. Pei Chiyao leaned down, tapping Zhi Yao's nose lightly, murmuring gently, "Baby, you belong only to me. You understand?"

Zhi Yao did not really get it.

"Don't let this happen again."

With the light four words, Zhi Yao smelled a dangerous vibe.

She gazed right at Pei Chiyao, feeling like he was really odd for some reason.

The usual Pei Chiyao doted on Zhi Yao. But once he discovered that something of his had been tainted by someone else, he would become exceptionally irritable.

Zhi Yao was a little lost.

In the next moment, Pei Chiyao stripped off her skirt.

He picked up the entire fox and threw her straight into the huge bathtub.

To Zhi Yao, that bathtub was frighteningly enormous.

"??!"

The panicked little fox desperately tried to climb onto Pei Chiyao, but Pei Chiyao only coldly scrubbed shower gel onto her.

That shower gel was Pei Chiyao's usual brand. Only when the smell on the little fox's body was saturated with this scent did Pei Chiyao's mood finally improve slightly.

"Be good. It'll be over soon."

Zhi Yao was drenched, looking utterly pathetic.

"Pei... Chiyao..."

As the words left her mouth, both Zhi Yao and Pei Chiyao froze.

She could speak human words now?!

Pei Chiyao was even more thrilled than Zhi Yao. "A-again, call out my name again!"

Zhi Yao timidly looked at Pei Chiyao, saying, "Pei Chiyao, what's wrong with you? You're not happy?"

She still did not understand why Pei Chiyao was unhappy.

"Yes, I'm in a terrible mood."

Pei Chiyao readily admitted it.

"Did you touch anyone else today?"
