Talulah, I'm still a child.

Before she even arrived, her voice preceded her. The little fox's voice carried a hint of panic, but it was enough to divert Exusiai's attention. She turned her head and saw that Mei Xue had changed her clothes. She wore black hot pants with a close-fitting white silk lining and a slightly loose jacket, looking quite adorable.

"I ate all the cake."

As soon as Exusiai finished speaking, Mei Xue, who had been running towards her, suddenly stopped in her tracks, her eyes filled with shock and disbelief. She clearly couldn't quite believe what she had just heard. She had rushed out after washing up in a hurry, and even bumped her head while changing clothes. And now Exusiai was saying that the cake was gone. What a wicked older sister who tricked the fox!

Mei Xue's ears and tail drooped down. The thought that her much-anticipated fruit cake had been eaten made her feel increasingly uneasy.

"Meixue, I still have some here."

Seeing that the little fox was about to cry, Sora simply picked up the piece of cake that Exusiai had given him before Texas could. Mei Xue, who was originally depressed, immediately perked up her ears and, under the shocked gazes of Texas and Exusiai, ran up and jumped into Sora's arms.

For a fleeting moment, Sora sensed a strong killing intent emanating from her two colleagues who had risked their lives for her. Their eyes were also quite hostile. If she could, Sora would have liked to make a few excuses. She hadn't expected Mei Xue to jump into her arms like that. However, the little fox smelled quite nice.

"Be careful, what if you fall?"

Placing the cake and fork in Mei Xue's hands, under the gazes of Exusiai and Texas, Sora felt a sweat breaking out on her back. Exusiai was one thing, but what was with Texas?

"Thank you, flight attendant!"

The little fox sat obediently on the side, holding the cake, while draping its three tails over its legs to avoid getting the sofa wet, and happily began to enjoy the cake with a fork.

(That was the one I left for them!)

Exusiai was seething with hatred. She had only intended to tease the little fox; how could she not leave some cake for Mei Xue? But Sora had snatched it away and used it to present to the Buddha. Wasn't this just bullying?!

"Meixue, come here, let me dry your tail."

Texas raised the hairdryer in her hand. As one of the few people in Penguin Logistics with a fluffy tail, Texas had an absolute advantage in this regard. After all, an empty tail is fake, and this is where her advantage comes in.

"Okay, thank you, sister~"

Mei Xue was happy to help blow on the tail, since the little fox had too many tails and long hair, and there were some parts she couldn't reach herself, so she had to ask someone else to do it. Texas looked like she had experience.

(Damn, I forgot that Texas has this advantage.)

Exusiai touched her hair. She was a pure, sunny girl with short hair. She would let her hair air dry after washing it and didn't have the same tail-blowing technique as Texas. She could only watch as Mei Xue's tail gradually regained its fluffiness in Texas's hands, while the little fox continued to eat her cake. She was the only one who couldn't do anything.

"By the way, sister, is the boss coming back soon?"

Mei Xue suddenly remembered that normally he would go straight home after finishing work in the morning. Today, it was because Texas said that the Emperor would be back that the little fox decided to meet his boss and see what kind of person he was.

"...Oh right, it seems like there was something like that."

Exusiai's halo flashed. If Mei Xue hadn't mentioned it, they would have almost forgotten about it. After all, compared to that slightly sarcastic Penguin Logistics, this little fox in front of them, who could only laugh and liked to unconsciously act cute, was much better!

"Texas, how about we stop calling it Penguin Logistics and start calling it Fox Logistics?"

Watching Mei Xue eating cake, Exusiai suddenly had the idea of ​​starting a new business with the little fox. After all, the little fox is now a wealthy person and can make some initial investments. Starting any kind of business should not be a problem, such as opening a milk tea shop. Then Mei Xue, as the boss, can just sit and act as a mascot to attract customers, and she can be the boss's wife. Hmm... thinking about it like this makes the future look promising.

"What did you say!"

The sound didn't come from Texas, Croissant, or Sora, but from the doorway, from that short penguin dressed in trendy clothes, wearing sunglasses and a big gold chain. How short was he? Even shorter than the little fox.

This is the boss of Penguin Logistics, a rap superstar from Siren Records, and also a very famous rapper.

"Exusiai, I've only been gone a few days and you're already rebelling?!"

The Emperor let out an indescribable shriek, but it was no wonder. Upon returning, he heard that his employees were not only planning to quit but also to change the name of his company. Anyone would be furious. It was a miracle that the Emperor managed to refrain from smashing his wine glass.

"Oh, boss, I was just kidding, don't take it seriously!"

Exusiai truly didn't expect the Emperor to appear at this critical juncture. She had just said it casually and hadn't yet decided what kind of business she and Mei Xue would do in the future.

Seeing Exusiai begging for mercy, the Emperor rolled up his non-existent sleeves and was about to go over and give her a good lecture.

"You call that..."

However, when he walked around the sofa and saw the little fox sitting next to Texas blowing its tail, he lost his grip on the wine glass and dropped it, shattering it on the ground. The penguin was unsteady on its feet and even instinctively took a few steps back.

This behavior made everyone feel very strange, especially Mei Xue. The little fox looked at the emperor, but couldn't see his eyes through the sunglasses. She glanced at the half cake left in her hand, thought for a while, and then turned the part of the cake she hadn't bitten over and handed it to him. Her expression was very natural, but there was still some reluctance in her eyes.

"Um... if you want to eat, is this all you have left?"

Despite the completely different voice and tone, the familiar face and tail still reminded the emperor of the fear rooted in his bones. He even subconsciously wanted to turn around and run away to avoid being beaten to the ground again, but then he suddenly remembered that the woman was dead, long ago, so long ago that even Ursus did not exist.

"who are you?"

The emperor's voice trembled slightly. He felt that whoever was in front of him was definitely related to that woman, that vixen named Su Xue'er. No, that woman was simply a devil.

"My name is Mei Xue, Mei as in plum blossom in winter and Xue as in snow falling."

As the little fox finished speaking, the emperor seemed to recall that person's voice again, on that desolate plain, where the woman holding a red oil-paper umbrella had lifted him by the neck as if he were a chick.

"Me? Of course I don't care. I'll live with my brother from now on. Hmm, like plum blossoms falling in the snow, he's the plum, and I'm the snow... What's with that look? If you dare say a bad word about my brother, I'll let misfortune haunt you for the rest of your life!"

"Then you know Su..."

The emperor immediately stopped himself from speaking, then looked at the chandelier above his head. Just now, when he was about to say the name, the chandelier above his head had been teetering on the brink of collapse. If he had actually said it, the chandelier would have fallen down the next moment, and it would probably have been electrified. In short, he would have died at least once.

Now the Emperor was certain that Mei Xue in front of him was definitely that stupid woman's younger brother. His initial dissatisfaction and anger had long been overshadowed by fear. At this moment, he only felt the exhilaration of surviving a disaster and couldn't care less about getting angry.

"I can't believe it, I really can't. They look very similar, but the difference is just too big!"

The Emperor looked at Mei Xue thoughtfully, which puzzled the little fox and the group of Exusiai. However, the Emperor did not say anything more. Instead, he walked up to Mei Xue, patted him on the shoulder, and spoke in a very serious tone.

"From today onwards, you're mine. Call me if you need anything, and I'll even beat Wei Yanwu to a pulp for you."

Chapter 86 W is about to arrive on the battlefield

"Let me tell you, back then I took a brick and fought my way from the East Gate to the South Gate, taking down all 42 branches of Longmen. It was a brutal battle, but I still managed to take them down, which led to Penguin Logistics' current status."

"Uncle is amazing!"

Although she didn't understand what "gang" meant, Mei Xue still thought the penguin uncle in her arms was pretty amazing. With 42 gangs, there must be at least 42 people, and he was able to win against them all.

"Hmph, of course."

As the Emperor opened his mouth and bit into the grape that Mei Xue had peeled and even removed the seeds from, he almost cried inside. Were these really siblings? The difference was too great. Even if you didn't compare her to that woman Su Xue'er, she was still an angel. Of course, she wasn't an angel like Exusiai.

"Let me tell you, I'll protect you from now on. If anyone dares to bully you, just call me."

At this point, the Emperor glanced at Mei Xue's tail out of the corner of his eye behind his sunglasses. He remembered that Su Xue'er had said that when she left, her younger brother should have had six tails left. With only three tails... it would indeed be difficult for him to protect himself.

Although the Great Emperor had been badly treated by that female fox back then, he was indebted to her. So, helping to take care of her younger brother now wasn't a big deal. The key was that this little fox was completely different from his sister. Enjoying his envious and admiring gaze, the Great Emperor felt full of pride. He was going to get back all the face he had lost with Su Xue'er!

However, seeing the Emperor's eloquent words, Exusiai, Texas, and the others shook their heads, helplessly watching this scene.

"The boss is spouting nonsense again. Last time when he tricked me into joining, he said there were 34 branches."

"You're alright. Back then, when he was drunk, he said he could take on ten Wei Yanwus plus the Rat King."

Of course, such an obvious lie could only fool Mei Xue. The little fox looked even cuter than usual as she hugged the big penguin. However, the talkative emperor in Mei Xue's arms couldn't shake his habit of bragging, which made Texas want to kick him away and hug Mei Xue herself.

"So follow me, and you'll get what you pay for, understand?"

"Um...but Uncle Emperor, I'm a vegetarian."

As she spoke, Mei Xue took an apple out of her mouth and handed it to the Great Emperor. The little fox herself did not eat meat, but he didn't care if others ate it. After all, his sister had said that he couldn't use his own standards to decide other people's lives.

"That's okay, you'll be working for me from now on anyway."

The Emperor casually placed the apple aside, then jumped down from Mei Xue's arms and came to the front of Exusiai and the others, pointing to Mei Xue sitting on the sofa behind him.

"You guys, take good care of him from now on, and don't bully the newbie, understand?"

"Okay, okay."

Exusiai and Texas rolled their eyes. They bullied Mei Xue? Are you kidding me? How could that be... No, it's not impossible. After all, it's quite fun to bully the little fox, especially in bed.

Thinking of this, Texas subconsciously licked the corner of her mouth, as if she was still savoring the taste of Mei Xue. Hmm, she wanted to do something again. After all, having fun with the innocent and cute little fox was quite addictive.

Exusiai subconsciously recalled her intimate interaction with Meixue at noon that day. Come to think of it, that shouldn't be considered bullying, right? After all, Meixue was quite happy.

The Emperor looked at the two people in front of him who were avoiding his gaze. He didn't think Texas and Exusiai would bully the little fox, but why didn't these two dare to look him in the eye?

Regardless, the Emperor seemed to value Mei Xue exceptionally much. Texas and Exusiai both noticed the unusual situation, but they didn't ask too many questions. The little fox thus gained a powerful backer without even realizing it.

Meanwhile, in the Longmen Administrative Building, Wei Yanwu put his pipe aside, sighed, and looked at Wen Yue in front of him with a helpless expression.

"We've received a reply from the Great Yan side. The people from the Dali Temple's Surveillance Department will arrive in three days."

"...Here to see him?"

"To be precise, it's to pick him up, but Black Cloak just sent a letter saying that the Emperor has chosen to provide protection, which has complicated things."

"The most crucial thing is still Xiao Chen's side, right?"

Wen Yue picked up her tea and took a sip. She and Wei Yanwu both knew very well that the key issue now was not anything else but Chen Huijie. The Emperor's side was fine, but after Hei Suo's observation over this period of time, Chen Huijie truly regarded Mei Xue as his own younger brother. If the Surveillance Department tried to forcibly take her away, a conflict between the two sides was inevitable.

"Yes, she doesn't know Mei Xue's identity, and even if she did, it wouldn't matter. We all know that's the kind of person she is."

Wei Yanwu sighed. Sometimes he didn't know how to describe Chen Huijie's personality. She was strong-willed, persistent, and stubborn. Wei Yanwu couldn't understand why she chose to take care of Mei Xue. If Chen Huijie had arranged for him to go to any welfare home, it would have been fine. In that case, they could have just put him in a sack and taken him away.

"I know too..."

"And another one, Madam."

"Ok?"

"Can I get up now? My knees hurt from kneeling."

Looking at the washboard beneath his knees, Wei Yanwu really couldn't take it anymore. Damn, he'd been kneeling for three hours straight, from the remote control to a durian shell to the washboard. If this continued, he'd have to consider amputation. Luckily, no one else was around, or he'd be incredibly embarrassed.

"That won't do. You've been on that red-light district for four hours already. Keep going, there's still an hour left."

Wen Yue put down her teacup and gave a cold snort. She knew that Wei Yanwu must have gone to the red-light district again when she didn't see him this morning. He even went with someone. It's all for her future life if he doesn't cripple her fifth limb.

————————————————————————————

In the wilderness, a modified off-road vehicle sped past. Hedley glanced in the rearview mirror and saw W, sitting in the back seat, fiddling with a small box.

"W, what's that? Your new bomb?"

"Yes, it was indeed a bomb, but it was a little unusual."

W opened the box and took a look. Inside lay a metal collar, the black one with gold patterns, which was quite beautiful. Considering that Mei Xue really liked his bell, W had even left a clasp for it so that he could attach it later.

That way, once she catches that little fox, he'll never be able to leave her sight again. As for herself? No way, she'd love to find a rope and tie herself to Mei Xue.

"Hedley... tell me, how much money would be appropriate as a wedding gift for me?"

W's words almost caused Hedley to swerve and drive the car into the ditch, and Ines, who was sitting next to W, almost burst out laughing.

"I'm not trying to be mean, W, but do you really think anyone would want you?"

"Ha, it doesn't matter if he doesn't want me, I just need him."
