Talulah, I'm still a child.
Page 45
Aneng frowned when she was suddenly called out. She was already in a bad mood today, and Texas was trying to steal her away. She was even saying these things on purpose. Wasn't she implying something to her?
"Sister A-Neng won't bully me."
At the crucial moment, it was Mei Xue's answer that calmed Exusiai's agitated heart. The little fox actually answered seriously, twitching his fox ears and showing a very firm expression on his face.
"Yes, Meixue is still the best!"
After nuzzling the little fox's big tail, Exusiai decided to turn around and spend more time with Mei Xue, avoiding Texas's gaze. With Texas around, nothing she did would go smoothly.
(I have a feeling that Texas and Ah Neng are having a tiff.)
Mei Xue glanced to the left and right. The mutual dislike between Exusiai and Texas was quite obvious, just like Talulah and Frostnova. Those two used to often quarrel, but back then Alina was there to deal with them. As for these two... the little fox couldn't bring herself to do it.
[By the way, I remember you bought a lottery ticket when you were shopping the other night? Do you want to take a look? The draw seems to be coming up soon.]
Miss Black Snake's reminder made Mei Xue realize that she did indeed have a lottery ticket, which Swire and Chen Huijie had bought the night before last to test her luck. Considering that Kamen Rider wasn't on TV right now, Mei Xue simply took out her lottery ticket and picked up the remote to switch to the channel mentioned on the ticket.
"Mei Xue, do you still buy lottery tickets?"
Exusiai looked at the lottery ticket in the little fox's hand, which brought back some unpleasant memories. Once upon a time, she and Croissant also thought they could turn their lives around with the lottery, but the biggest prize they ever won was just another bottle of wine. The convenience store wouldn't even let them redeem it, which made them so angry that they spent their entire month's salary on lottery tickets. And then... that's why they still owe Empty money.
"Well, my sisters told me to try my luck."
"What, the lottery?"
Upon hearing that it was related to money, Croissant, who had originally planned to distance herself from the general environment, immediately grabbed Kong and came over without saying a word.
"Let me see, let me see, I'm having amazing luck!"
"Come on, we both still owe each other 20,000 yuan, just because you said you could make more money by buying lottery tickets."
Exusiai ruthlessly exposed Croissant's lie, which put Texas at ease. Although winning the lottery could bring a large sum of money, the probability was too low. She didn't want Mei Xue to get caught up in such things. There were cases of people going bankrupt from buying lottery tickets, and the useless angel and the croissant next to her were the best examples.
"Let me see... Mei Xue, you're really too daring! 111213141516, all consecutive numbers."
Looking at the lottery ticket in the little fox's hand, Exusiai didn't know what to say. In Lungmen, you can specify the numbers when buying lottery tickets, as long as they are still available. However, almost no one buys consecutive numbers like this. Although the probability of winning is the same, it just gives people a feeling of unreliability, which makes people feel resistant to buying lottery tickets.
“This was picked out for me by Sister Swire. She said it would make the predictions more accurate and that I could get a lot of money if I won.”
"If you won the lottery, Meixue, what would you do?"
Looking at Mei Xue's beautiful fluffy fox ears, Kong felt a little restless, but she managed to control herself. Of course, she was still envious of Texas and the others who could touch her tail directly.
"Hmm... I'll leave them all to my sister."
After all, although the little fox had many toys and things he wanted to buy, he remembered that his first priority in making money was to be self-reliant, and the second was to provide some funds to the integration team. As for food, Mei Xue could easily pull it out from her tail. He also had a place to live and clothes to wear. The little fox was already very satisfied, but winning the prize was also quite nice.
"Give them all to Inspector Chan. I really envy the relationship between you two."
Exusiai rubbed Mei Xue's head, and then suddenly had a brilliant idea.
"Hey, Meixue, why don't you move in with us? What do you say?"
"In that case, we need Sister Chen's permission."
"Oh, that's fine."
Needless to say, Exusiai knew it was hopeless. After all, she had witnessed Chen Huijie's attitude towards Mei Xue back then. If she had dared to bring it up, she probably would never have been able to come back.
"Alright, enough rambling, the lottery results are in!"
Croissant quickly covered Exusiai's mouth to stop her from talking, then pointed to the TV. The host had just announced the start of the number drawing, and all five of them were staring intently at the screen, watching the ball in the number drawing machine spin continuously.
When the first number 11 fell, Texas was quite happy because at least she had matched one number, so Mei Xue wouldn't be too disappointed. When the second number 12 fell, Mei Xue was also happy because she could exchange it for five dollars, thus making back her lottery ticket money. When the third number 13 fell, Croissant was envious because she had matched two numbers before. When the fourth number 14 fell, Exusiai was also happy because the little fox could get an extra thousand dollars in bonus.
Logically, at this point we should be hoping the last number is 16, but that's unlikely.
Texas and Exusiai already knew this. Their eyesight was excellent, and they could easily see that the lottery machine's balls had been tampered with. Several balls were obviously heavier. For example, the first three rubber balls, 11, 12, and 13, did not bounce away after they collided, while ball 14 bounced ball 15 a short distance away. Based on this, the next ball would probably be 24 or 32.
"Go 16!"
The little fox, who had already matched five numbers, was happily wagging its tail when something strange happened. The number 16, which was originally on top, was suddenly knocked down by the jumping number 24 and pushed past the about-to-come-out number 32, successfully forming a series of consecutive numbers.
"Great!"
Croissant was numb. She stared at the numbers on the screen, comparing them repeatedly with the number in the little fox's hand. Finally, she was certain that this was not a dream. She patted her empty shoulder with a sense of loss.
"My dear sister, I suddenly feel like my life is a failure, what should I do?"
Seeing Croissant's melancholy expression, Sora patted her back helplessly, trying to comfort her, and answered in a gentle voice.
"...That's not an illusion."
Ignoring Croissant's petrified state, Exusiai excitedly picked up Mei and kissed her, leaving Texas stunned.
"Our little fox's net worth is now three million LMD!"
"Oh, so it was only three million?"
Mei Xue's words successfully broke Croissant's defenses, leaving Exusiai somewhat puzzled. She held the little fox in her arms and rubbed it.
"What's wrong, Mei Xue? Isn't three million a lot?"
"No, three million is a lot, but... it would be even better if it could be ten times that."
The little fox was a bit unsure how to put it. Three million and thirty thousand didn't really make a difference to him, but giving three million to the Reunion Movement wouldn't be enough. Thirty million would probably be useful to Talulah, right? Well, three million wasn't so bad after all.
"How could that be? If you really had 30 million, I'd be thinking about how to pursue you right now."
Croissant patted her not-so-prominent chest, and Exusiai flicked her horns with an annoyed gesture.
"Get out of here. If anyone's going to chase you, it should be me first. You miser, get out of here."
Just as Exusiai and Croissant finished speaking, the TV host suddenly received a text message and excitedly picked up the microphone.
"Great news, fantastic news! This is the first time since our lottery program started selling tickets that a grand prize has been won with consecutive numbers, and it has been confirmed that there is only one winner. Siren Records has decided to increase the prize money tenfold for this lucky winner! That is, a total of 33 million yuan!"
This time, not only Croissant was stunned, but the entire Penguin Logistics was also stunned by the news. More than 30 million! He quickly took out his communicator and dialed Chen Huijie's phone number, intending to ask her to help him collect the lottery ticket later. Little Fox was even thinking of giving one-third of the extra 3 million to Chen Huijie, one-third to Swire, and the last one later.
But as soon as the call connected, before the other end could even ask anything, Croissant rushed over and hugged Mei Xue tightly, crying uncontrollably.
"Boss, Mei Xue, take me in! I don't want to work hard anymore. I've never been in a relationship before, it's all a first for me, let me tell you..."
"Get out of here!"
Exusiai grabbed Croissant by the collar and threw her out, then solemnly took the little fox's hand.
“Meixue, let’s get married now. I can wait for you to grow up. Next month… no, next week… never mind, let’s go to Lateran tonight. I’ll introduce you to my family and we can discuss our future.”
This series of events left the little fox somewhat bewildered, and he quickly shook his head in denial.
"No, Sister Aneng, I'm still too young to get married. Besides, it's a long way to Lateran, so I'll have to ask Sister Chen if she'll let me go."
At this point, Mei Xue raised her communicator, which displayed "Sister Chen" on the screen, followed by a number and three glaring words: "Calling in progress."
However, Chen Huijie did not seem to speak. Texas glanced at the frozen Exusiai, reached out and pressed the speakerphone button for the little fox. After about ten seconds, Chen Huijie finally finished charging up.
"I'm a mix of Great Yan and Victorian profanities! You ******************** Exusiai, you just wait to spend the rest of your life in the Royal Guard's jail! *A string of Lungmen profanities*, no, I'm going to kill you!"
Chen Huijie smashed the communicator on the ground, then picked up the Chixiao sword and placed it at her waist before kicking open the door to her office.
"All personnel assemble! Calling for duty!"
————————————————————————
Texas reached out to help Mei Xue hang up the phone and put away the communicator. She silently picked up the little fox and placed it in her arms, shaking her head helplessly at Exusiai.
"I will visit you at the Guard Bureau with Mei Xue later, if Officer Chen spares your life."
Seeing that Texas had no intention of helping, Exusiai mechanically turned her gaze to Sora again, but she shook her head.
"Run now, Exusiai, there's still time."
Seeing no hope, Exusiai could only turn her gaze to Mei Xue. The little fox still didn't understand what had happened. When Chen Huijie swore earlier, Miss Black Snake had cleverly used her tail to block his ears, preventing Mei Xue from hearing what her sister Chen had said. She also didn't understand why Exusiai's eyes suddenly looked like those of her when she had just been rescued by Talulah.
However, because that look seemed familiar, Mei Xue reached out and gently rubbed Exusiai's head, even though she didn't know why.
"It's okay, sister, nothing will happen."
Feeling Mei Xue's comfort, Exusiai's heart calmed down. She took a deep breath and looked at Texas.
"Can I elope with Mei Xue?"
"...You should just die."
Chapter 81 The Little Fox's Crisis Resolved
Although she said she brought people, it was actually just Chen Huijie and Xingxiong. After all, this matter wasn't a big deal. Xingxiong stopped Chen Huijie from calling for more people and came along to prevent her from doing anything irrational.
When Chen Huijie rushed to Penguin Logistics' stronghold, almost everyone in Hoshiguma thought she was some kind of ancient demon who had escaped from a cheesy movie in Da Yan. Exusiai and Croissant were so scared that their legs went weak. In that state, Chen Huijie definitely had the ability to kill them all.
However, when Mei Xue wagged her tail and happily jumped into Chen Huijie's arms, all the murderous aura and malice on her body seemed to disappear. She hurriedly tried to sheath Chi Xiao, and failed several times, almost injuring her own hand.
With Mei Xue present, a fight was impossible. After understanding the situation, Chen Huijie was also stunned. She did not expect that the lottery ticket she bought for Mei Xue a while ago would actually win a big prize.
Before she could even speak, Mei Xue, having calmed Chi Xiao down, casually tucked the sword into her tail, then took out a slightly crumpled lottery ticket and handed it to Chen Huijie. Her smile was exceptionally bright, and her eyes were excited, with a hint of flattery.
"Sister! Our family is rich now!"
"how many?"
"Hmm... more than 30 million, I heard from my sister in Texas that a portion will be deducted, but it's still a lot. Sister, you don't have to work so hard anymore, Mei Xue will give you half."
The little fox gently tugged at his sister's sleeve. The half he was referring to was naturally his own half, which was half of the extra three million. However, to others, it sounded like fifteen million. This was no longer just generosity; it was more excessive than being kept as a mistress.
Looking at Mei Xue's earnest eyes, Chen Huijie's anger was suppressed once again. She kept telling herself that she should have the composure and calmness that an older sister should have, while at the same time feeling happy for Mei Xue's heart, which meant that her position in Mei Xue's heart was definitely not low.
Therefore, coupled with Mei Xue's constant sweet talk in her arms, her originally fierce anger was basically reduced to a few sparks. After all, Mei Xue couldn't possibly be lying. Fortunately, these two were just joking, otherwise she didn't know what she might have done.
At the same time, Chen Huijie was also very grateful to Xingxiong. If it weren't for Xingxiong's intervention, she might have really led a whole squad to rush over and wipe this place out.
"So you two need to remember, there are some things you can't just say!"
"Yes Yes Yes!"
Exusiai and Croissant nodded in agreement, feeling relieved. Just as Texas had analyzed, Mei Xue was basically a powerful weapon against Chen Huijie. On the surface, it seemed that Mei Xue was obedient to Chen Huijie, but in reality, Chen Huijie was completely under Mei Xue's control.
The little fox sitting in Chen Huijie's lap knew that the conflict couldn't continue. He gently rubbed against Chen Huijie's chest, feeling much relieved after realizing that his sister was indeed no longer angry.
Mei Xue twitched her ears and acted according to Miss Black Snake's instructions. She took the initiative to gently hug Chen Huijie's neck and snuggled into her arms affectionately, using an almost coquettish tone to bewitch Chen Huijie's heart.
"Sister, please don't bully Sister Neng and Sister Croissant, okay?"
"..."
Mei Xue was already irresistible enough, but Mei Xue who would take the initiative to act cute and charming was even more irresistible. Chen Huijie tried hard to control her abnormal thoughts. After all, there were so many people around. She had to go home first. She almost said, "Then I'll bully you."
