chapter 5

The little white fox was not in a hurry to find Zhuo Feng, but quietly followed the man who targeted Zhuo Feng after the crowd dispersed. Listening to them cursing Zhuo Feng, and discussing how to trick the clever Zhuo Feng. In the end, they targeted the stray dogs again, saying that if Zhuo Feng heard that a dog was injured, he would definitely come out.

The little white fox watched their eyes get colder and colder. These were the human beings that Heaven protected by binding all demons and monsters? Even without demons, they would still harm their own kind and also harm cats and dogs that couldn’t resist. Is it the law of the jungle? Zhuo Feng lives with these kinds of people all day, but he still kept a kind heart. No wonder he could impress readers and make them wish him a happy life. He is the one worthy of protection.

Watching those few people going to the back of the abandoned house area to prepare for action, the little white fox sneered in her heart. Her earth spell scattered the tall pile of debris next to them. The few people were unprepared. They were suddenly smashed under it and were so frightened that they couldn’t stop screaming. They stood up and couldn’t help backing in panic.

“Of all the places, why did we have to come here? What about the house tearing down? What if it collapses?”

“Yes, my arm is bruised. I wouldn’t have come here if I had known!”

“What are you doing? I didn’t force you to come. A little bruised skin and you’re whining, huh, coward!”

The little white fox jumped on the roof, lifted by the wind spell, and with a wave of her paw; one of them staggered forward, pushing the person in front to the ground. He immediately stood up and said, “I’m sorry, someone pushed me.”

Several people looked behind him. It was empty and there was no one at all. He obviously pushed on purpose and lied about it! Then the little white fox spat out an airwave and hit a guy on the back of his head. He looked back and saw the man behind him holding a stick in his hand. No matter how the guy denied it, he decided that it was the other who hit him in the back.

Doing it then deny it! Who are you taking for a fool?

This was good. A couple of older boys were already on fire, arguing and not letting anyone off the hook. The more they argued, the more violent they became. They simply started to fight.

In orphanages, they can stand up and bully others, but their character isn’t good. They wouldn’t easily throw in the towel when fighting, for fear of losing face in front of others. They will certainly beat each other until someone gives up. In a short while, one person’s head was broken and his face was bleeding! The construction site was full of broken bricks and rubble. They came here to make Zhuo Feng suffer, but they didn’t expect to end up like this.

The little white fox squatted on the roof and smiled, [001, isn’t this what they call self-defeating? They wanted to hit someone, but they got a beating themselves. Very good, very good. With me by the scholar’s side, in the future, I won’t let him be bullied by these punks! When the time comes, the scholar will be happy and contented, and I’ll follow him to eat all over the world. I feel satisfied just thinking about it.]

001 didn’t talk, but after careful analysis, it told her the good news that the task was completed. [Upon completion of the mission, you will be rewarded with the most delicious roast chicken on earth, which is temporarily stored in the system Storage Pouch and can be accessed by the host at any time.]

The little white fox was overjoyed when she heard this. Her favorite food since childhood was chicken, and she had eaten all kinds of roasted, boiled, and smoked chickens. But she had never eaten chicken made in the human world. As soon as it was rewarded, she ran back to the small house where she had lived before and taken out the roast chicken. The smell filled the whole house. When she opened the paper wrapping the outer layer and saw the tempting color of the roasted chicken, it’s so mouth-watering that she can’t wait to devour it!

The little white fox hopped around happily and was about to take a bite, but suddenly thought of Zhuo Feng who was holding half of a dirty bun. She looked at the roast chicken and hesitated for a moment, then wrapped it up again. Gripping it in her mouth, she scampered off into the night and ran for Zhuo Feng’s dorm room.

Zhuo Feng was quite excluded in the orphanage, and half of the people in the orphanage didn’t like him. Others were afraid to get close to him because those people always find trouble with him. Therefore, he was the only one living in his dormitory. The others were afraid of being implicated, so no one was willing to live with him.

Of course, it would be wrong to say that he lived in a big dormitory room by himself. His dormitory is at the top, the farthest corner from the bathroom and stairs. It used to be a small utility room. The Headmistress had wild desires for him. In the past few years, she tried every means to force him to submit, and clearing out the utility room and giving it to him as a dorm room was one of them. Anyway, no one wanted to live with him, which was a ready-made reason.

When the little white fox saw the situation in the room from the window, she was a little unhappy. In such a humble room, there was nothing but a bed, and it was inconvenient to wash his hands. It was not as comfortable as her cave. How could the people she wanted to protect live in such a place?

As soon as the problems came out, the system said, [If he lives well, he wouldn’t need you.]

That was true. The little white fox looked at Zhuo Feng and raised her little paw to knock on the window.

Zhuo Feng looked up unexpectedly and was surprised to see the little white fox. He went to open the window and carried her in. “Xiaobai? Why are you here? Did you come here specifically to find me?”

The little white fox nodded, sat down on the bed, and put down the roast chicken. She pushed it in his direction and made a few light barks.

Zhuo Feng pointed his finger at himself and asked in disbelief, “Giving it to me? Are you here to bring me a roast chicken?”

The little white fox nodded again. Now Zhuo Feng was shocked. He picked up the little white fox and looked her in the eye and asked, “Can you understand me? Nod your head if you can.”

The little white fox was stunned, but denying it now would obviously be so fake, so she nodded again. The scholar is so kind, surely, he wouldn’t tell others about her peculiarities? They will be together for a lifetime, and trust was also very important!

Zhuo Feng got a positive answer and didn’t know what to say at the moment. The little white fox jumped aside and opened the package of roast chicken, tearing off a chicken leg and eating it skillfully. This scholar is good at everything but a bit dull. She can’t believe he could think of anything else in front of delicious food, so she can’t help but eat first!

Zhuo Feng finally recovered from seeing her movements, but it still felt incredible. How in the world did he meet a dog that could understand human speech, communicate, and looked to be just over a month old? Was there once a good pet owner who trained her well? Can you train a dog to that extent?

With such a thought, he hurriedly asked, “Xiaobai, do you have an owner?”

The little white fox shook her head while eating. He must be joking, she will become a great demon, the nine-tailed heavenly fox in the future, who can be her owner? Are you looking for death?

“Is there no owner, or you don’t remember?” Zhuo Feng was a little hesitant. After all, she looked really small.

How would she answer that, she can’t talk!

The little white fox cocked her head and spit the chicken bones that had been chewed clean on the floor. She sat upright and shook her head seriously at Zhuo Feng, hoping that Zhuo Feng could see the meaning she conveyed.

Zhuo Feng really understood it! How could such a spiritual and intelligent little one not remember the past? Besides, if an owner trained it so well, it was even less likely for her to forget her owner so easily. Then she was born like this and has a relatively high IQ?

Zhuo Feng was relieved that the little white fox didn’t have an owner. Such a short time together made him reluctant to send the little white fox back. He only thought that the little white fox had a well-developed brain. Just like those geniuses, he himself was naturally smarter than others and learns everything easily, nothing surprising. When he relaxed, he asked where the little white fox bathed and where the roast chicken came from.

The little white fox couldn’t answer such a complicated question. Zhuo Feng also figured out the answer for it himself, thinking that the little white fox took a bath in the sink where they washed their hands before. Although he couldn’t figure out where the roast chicken came from, after he asked if it was stolen or robbed, he left it alone.

When he finally picked up the roast chicken and began to eat it, the little white fox had already eaten half of the roast chicken! He looked at the little white fox with some worry. “I remember puppies can’t seem to eat chicken. It’s easy to get the chicken bones stuck. Don’t eat so fast.”

The little white fox ignored him and turned to the other side to continue eating. She has lived for a hundred years. How could such a stupid thing happen? Besides, she was obviously not a puppy!

She quickly chewed the chicken’s head and spit all the tiny bones on the ground, practically proving that she had no problem eating.

Tasting the deliciousness, the little white fox squinted contentedly. This delicious food was tens of thousands of times better than ham sausage. She was stupid to think that ham sausage was the best thing in the world! Now that she had tasted such a delicious roast chicken, she was a little worried about whether she would still be happy following Zhuo Feng in the future.

Thinking about it this way, it made sense. She was here to make Zhuo Feng happy. How can someone be happy if they can’t eat delicious food? She must find ways to get more and better food for Zhuo Feng to eat. Eat well to live well!

One person and one fox shared the roast chicken, and Zhuo Feng also shared the steamed bun with its skin peeled off and some hot water. So, he ate until he was full. Zhuo Feng lay on the bed and touched the fur of the little white fox. He said, “Everyone’s resting now, so you can sleep here. It’s much better than that crappy house. When I go to school tomorrow, I’ll put you in my schoolbag and take you out. No one will find out.”

Hearing this, the little white fox looked around in the room, tilted her head, and leaned aside. Zhuo Feng looked at her with some surprise, and couldn’t help but laugh: “Did you just look at it with disgust? You think my dormitory is bad? But didn’t you live in the garbage dump before?”

The little white fox was furious at the thought of the garbage dump. It was the first time in her life that she was that dirty and smelly. That was actually the first time they had met, how was she supposed to maintain her guardian angel majesty?!!!

She immediately jumped up and shouted a protest at Zhuo Feng, posing with the most dignified gesture. But it only made Zhuo Feng laugh again.

Zhuo Feng scooped her into his arms and gently petted her. He said with joy, “You’re so cute, it’s a blessing in disguise that I found you, so smart and cute. Don’t worry, I will be 18 years old in a month. I can find some proper part-time jobs and move out. I’ll be renting a bigger room than here anyhow.”

The little white fox was struggling in his hands. She was a guardian angel, not a cute pet. How could he misunderstand her?

However, Zhuo Feng hugged her in his arms and wouldn’t let go. He lowered his head and rubbed her furry head. He smiles lightly: “I am very grateful to the Headmistress for giving me such a dorm room now. If I didn’t live by myself and people were walking around, how could I hide you here? Usually, I like to be alone and study quietly. It’s better now, with you here. I wish I could hug you to sleep every day.”

The little white fox slowly quieted at the contentment in his words, nesting nicely in his arms and sharing his body heat. How did such an easy-to-satisfy, cheerful, and kind-hearted person become so ruthless later? How much pain does it take to abruptly change a person’s temperament? Can she really help him be happy? It’s not enough to rely on such petty pranks, she has to grow into a true guardian angel and watch over him for the rest of his life!
