"Master Fox wants to go home. I'll take Master Fox home first!"
Even though Bai Tao noticed that Master Fox's little hands weren't exactly clean, adhesive remover isn't a highly regulated item. After reporting it to Feng Wenyu, the matter was brushed aside.
After all.....
Master Fox was holding the item in his arms. You can't just go and snatch it back, can you?
It's not that important, anyway. If you really upset Master Fox, it might be okay if you can coax him, but if you can't, and the caregiver isn't nearby...
Feng Wenyu was really worried that Master Fox would chase him with a hammer and bite them.
Though Feng Wenyu said not to worry about it.
But Bai Tao feels like she needs to go back tonight and re-plan her lessons, focusing more on moral education.
...
Su Qiyuan and Bai Tao drove an old car and sent Master Fox back to Changxi Town before nine-thirty.
"Hmm?"
Ansheng hopped over the wall at home, face full of confusion, looking at his dimly lit house, scratched his head, and looked at the neighboring courtyard, saying, "Ah Fu, why is there no one at my house?"
Lai Foo, gradually recovering from the shadow of losing the egg, optimistically looked at the fox and barked a few times.
Your master? They went out in the evening, seemed like they said they were going to eat somewhere?
"They went shopping.... without me?"
Ansheng squatted on the wall, arms crossed, looking incredulously at the dark house.
But before Ansheng could cackle, run back home to open the fridge, and drink iced cola with his legs crossed, suddenly, a spicy fish head electric scooter sped down the country road.
Under Ansheng's astonished gaze, the spicy fish head scooter made a sharp turn, nearly flipping over, pulling up in front of the door. Mo Yiqing slammed open the car door, face pale, rushed through the door into the self-built house.
"Did something happen?"
Ansheng looked completely bewildered as he glanced towards Ah Qing, who got out from the passenger seat, with a perplexed expression, spoke.
"Xiaolan, you came back just in time. We brought you some barbeque and a fruit platter."
Ah Qing, seeing Ansheng on the wall, waved cheerfully, shaking the plastic bag in her hand filled with the takeout food they had just packed.
The human and fox entered the house, turned on the lights, and from the direction of the bathroom came sounds of heavy breathing, and... swearing.
"What's wrong with Momo?"
Ansheng jumped onto the table, rummaging through the food Ah Qing had packed for him, while exchanging a peculiar look towards the bathroom: "I feel like ordinary constipation wouldn't lead to this kind of outcome."
"You're asking about Momo? When we were eating, Momo was swiping through musical notes and stumbled upon the super spicy Cao's, and all the reviews said it was explosively spicy. Momo found it intriguing and ordered their insanely spicy takeaway..."
Washing her hands in the kitchen, Yu Xueqing responded matter-of-factly, having heard the little fox's inquiry.
Momo is well-known for loving food, and when eating, she specifically targets the restaurant's signature dishes and authentic flavor.
People say the super spicy is authentic, so just order it!
"Hmm.... got burned by the super spicy Cao's." Ah Qing summarized Momo's situation.
"Ssss..."
From the bathroom, Mo Yiqing let out a deep sigh, then walked out with her legs splayed, her face returned to normal, but still wore an expression of exaggerated pain, turned the fan to its highest setting and faced the sofa, she fell straight down, butt facing the fan direction like she was about to roast herself.
"......."
The little fox looked puzzled, glancing back and forth between Mo Yiqing and Ah Qing, while Ah Qing moved around the house casually as if nothing was wrong, bringing Momo a cup of water.
"Why don't you go wash up? Or get some wet wipes and apply them?"
Sitting on the chair, Ah Qing suggested to a Momo who looked utterly dispirited: "I told you before, such spicy food isn't suitable for us to eat. If Lingren came and saw those chili peppers, they'd probably retreat repeatedly."
Ah Qing mocked Mo Yiqing as she opened the plastic bag on the table, preparing to feed the little fox some fruits.
However.
Earlier, with the dim lighting, Ah Qing hadn't noticed. Now, with the house fully lit, she suddenly noticed that Xiaolan was covered in dust everywhere, reeking of alkaline water.
"Xiaolan..... why are you so dirty? Is that cement dust on you?"
"Ying ying!" Ansheng shrugged and told Ah Qing about his bug-exterminating adventure.
"What? You got slammed by a big bug?" Ah Qing looked at the little fox in disbelief.
According to Xiaolan's description, he was wandering leisurely, when out of nowhere, a big bug jumped out and scared him so bad that he scrambled around madly, his wailing echoed throughout the village.
"Not quite, you got the protagonist wrong, it's Xiaolan who pounded the parasite until it crawled everywhere, turning the parasite from a male to a dutiful housewife with one hammer." Ansheng corrected Ah Qing's mistaken words, don't get the protagonist wrong.
After eating a piece of cantaloupe, Ah Qing took the messy little fox to the bathroom to clean him up.
Outside the room, Mo Yiqing sneakily peeked at the bathroom situation, trembling as she reached out, took a pack of baby wipes from the table, applied them in shame.
"This time... really got Cao'd."
Mo Yiqing spoke with a face full of grievance, raised her hand to lower the air conditioning temperature further.
"Ah Qing! Do you have insecticide here? There's a twin-tail Elf on your ceiling again!"
"It's okay! I've already negotiated with them, the area below two meters belongs to us, above two meters and the top of the wardrobe belongs to them, as long as they bathe frequently, I'll provide them with food for free."
Ah Qing in the bathroom reassured Mo Yiqing through the glass door.
The fierce roaches that even insecticide couldn't eliminate, Ah Qing could only take a roundabout approach.
Negotiating with the cockroach family to demarcate areas and sign a co-renting agreement.
Though, the cockroach family's conditions were a bit strange, saying they needed a bottle of insecticide provided monthly.
Mo Yiqing: "......"
This... is this something you can negotiate about?
Don't negotiate everything, I'm scared!
......
After taking turns bathing, Ansheng flopped onto the bed, leaning against Ah Qing's shoulder, comfortably watching short videos together.
Ah Qing's short video preferences: 50% cute pets, 20% beauty and fashion bloggers, and 30% agriculture.
Ansheng was okay watching these too.
However.
After watching for a while, a message popped up in Yu Xueqing's dorm group.
Lingren: [video.mp4]
Ah Qing tilted her head, a bit puzzled, clicked open the video that Lingren uploaded to the group.
The video revealed, with full beauty filters on, two rather beautiful girls embraced each other, their gazes directed towards the camera, lightly exchanged a kiss.
After watching, Yu Xueqing felt baffled and sent a panda man confusion emoji from her sticker pack.
Meanwhile, Mo Yiqing, lying next to the little fox, used her phone to send an anime character image, the female character holding a magic dragon bashing another character, with a caption: acting all flirty yet unwilling when getting close.
Another roommate, Tang You, immediately started complaining, saying she was just playing computer games in the living room, with family and relatives all nearby drinking and chatting, and you sent this, are you trying to get me into trouble?
Lingren sent an audio message:
"It's really great sisters, almost a month without meeting, I'm so glad you haven't turned into bronze girls."
"I plan to return to school around the 20th, how about you all? Let's schedule a time to gather at the Bronze Girls Bar to verify among each other, see if there are any traitors among us!"
Ah Qing & Mo Yiqing & Tang You: "......."
