Chapter One Hundred and Twelve

  Twenty.

  "Twenty years old?"

  This answer is also beyond my expectation!

  I stared at her in surprise and said: "You really don't look like a 20-year-old, you look more like a minor, I feel like you're even younger than me."

  "Are you laughing at how short I am?"

  She seemed to be angry, and her voice suddenly cooled down.

  "No, I just said you look very young."

  I don't understand why she suddenly got so angry, and I feel a bit depressed inside.

  "Hmph! I won't waste any more words on you, little girl."

  She said angrily and turned around to leave.

  "Hey!"

  I called out to her from behind and walked up to block her way, asking: "Where are you headed?"

  "Where are you going?" She smiled coldly and said provocatively, "This seems to be my business, no need for you to interfere."

  Having said that, he pulled his legs and ran into the dark alley.

  This is really too much, I've never seen such an impolite person before. I was kind enough to save her, but instead she's complaining about me. I was worried that she'd be unsafe alone and asked where she was going, but all I got from her was a bellyful of anger. It's infuriating!

  I turned around and walked back while thinking about that girl, wondering if she had safely returned home at this time.

  As I looked at the sky which had already turned completely dark, I started to feel a bit uneasy. Walking on the streets at this time, I was afraid that I might run into those "brothers and sisters" at any moment.

  Thinking of this, I quickly buried my head and rushed towards the highway, rushing to those bright and flashing places with neon lights, thinking that following the crowd would make me safe, as the yang energy was strong, those 'brothers and sisters' should not dare to come near me.

  But as I walked a few steps, I suddenly felt like someone was following behind me. I took one step, 'that' also took one step, I stopped, 'that' also stopped.

  I had just glanced back to see who 'that' was, when suddenly my waist tightened and my feet lost balance, causing my body to fall backwards. Fortunately, I didn't fall all the way to the ground, but instead fell into a pair of arms filled with a faintly sweet scent.

  "Let me go."

  I couldn't turn around, so I used my fists to greet the people behind me.

  "Hehe, thirteenth generation."

  The fox's voice sounded in her ear.

  "How did you get here?"

  I didn't go to beat him up, I asked him.

  "I've been waiting at home for you to bring me some good food, and it's gotten dark outside. But the 13th generation still hasn't returned, I'm getting anxious in my heart, and since there's no other way, I'll have to come out myself to find you."

  I couldn't help but feel a little amused, haha... It turns out that he just wanted to eat something good! This fox is like a child, going so far to find me just for the sake of something delicious.

  The fox loosened its grip on my waist and walked in front of me, looking at me and asking: "Where is the delicious food you promised to buy for me? I've been searching for you for a long time, now I'm so hungry that I can barely stand it. Hurry up and take it out, I want to eat."

  Delicious food, all delicious food is in the store! Looking at the fox's fervent and expectant eyes, I couldn't help but feel a little guilty. This... I really did forget.

  "What's wrong, did the thirteenth generation forget?"

  The fox suddenly raised its voice and shouted loudly at me.

  "No, nothing." I avoided his eyes and calmly said to him: "I was just about to go buy some, didn't expect to run into you here."

  "Oh, I see." The fox nodded with a look of understanding and said to me, "Then let's go buy it together with the Thirteenth Generation."

  "Good." I readily agreed to his request.

  We went to buy food together and then headed home together!

  Thinking about it, if I go home with the fox spirit, there shouldn't be any ghosts or monsters that would dare to come and cause me trouble.

  Thinking of this, I suddenly felt a lot more at ease. The fox has been living in my house for some time now, and it seems like I've never taken him out for a stroll or bought him anything delicious to eat. Considering he's an ancient relic from a thousand years ago, he should be full of curiosity about all this.

  "What's that place in the thirteenth generation?"

  The fox stopped in its tracks and turned its head to look at a high-rise building with flashing neon lights by the side of the road.

  I followed his gaze, "Royal Hotel", my god, the notorious Huang Cheng, I really don't know what kind of eyesight this fox has, to spot such a shady place at a glance.

  "I explained: 'This is similar to your era's brothels.'"

  "Oh, brothel!"

  The fox smiled meaningfully and gazed intently at the glittering building, as if eager to enter.

  "Hey! I grabbed his sleeve and urged, 'Aren't we going to eat something delicious? Are you still not going?'"

  "Go on, of course I'll go. I must go." The fox came to its senses and stared at me with its eyes, "The 13th generation has finally invited me for a meal, so I must give you face."

  Come on, how can I say something so similar to what Xiao Su said? Do I look like such a petty person?

  As we were talking, we continued walking forward and arrived at a small noodle shop. I stopped in front of it.

  "Unbelievable!" The fox's face was filled with incredulity. "The Thirteenth Generation wants to invite the Honored One to eat at such a small place, the Honored One won't go in."

  After finishing speaking, the fox's eyebrows suddenly furrowed, and she stood outside, refusing to take another step inside.

  "Come on, let's go in! The storefront may look small, but the food inside is really delicious, let's go in!"

  I spoke in a gentle and soft tone to the fox, seeing that it still didn't move, I stretched out my hand to grab its sleeve, using all my might to pull it inside, but no matter how hard I pulled, I couldn't budge it.

  "Do you still want me to treat you to something?"

  I shook off his arm and said to him in a huff.

  "I do, of course," said the fox.

  "Then why won't you go in?" I shouted at him angrily.

  The fox hesitated for a moment, looking disdainful: "This place is too simple, I don't want to go in, it's beneath my dignity."

  "Lost face?"

  I couldn't help but sneer, "What's with the identity nonsense? It's not like anyone has nothing better to do than care about your ID. If you don't want to go in, then just stand outside and wait quietly while I go buy."

  After blurting out the sentence without thinking, I found that the fox was smiling at me with a sinister face. My heart suddenly felt bad, and I quickly changed my words: "If Fox Fairy is worried about losing her identity by going in, then I'll go in for you! You wait outside, I'll go buy."

  I turned around, just about to slip away with a greased sole, when my hand was caught by the fox.
