Talulah, I'm still a child.

Even though Mei Xue had fled from her side, she was only relieved that the little fox was safe and sound. She didn't know why Mei Xue would make such a sudden move, but now, facing Mei Xue's invitation, Talulah sat down next to him and leaned back against Mei Xue's thigh.

The little fox wasn't very big, but his proportions were surprisingly good. Leaning lightly against his thigh didn't feel uncomfortable at all; in fact, Talulah felt it was more comfortable than any pillow.

"Sister, you've worked hard."

Mei Xue gently placed her hand on Talulah's head, soothing her body and mind, and quickly relieving her accumulated fatigue.

Mei Xue was not surprised that Talulah would come here. Of course, this was not the result of Mei Xue's deliberate arrangement. It was just that Talulah herself chose to tie her fate to Mei Xue's, so she would unconsciously approach Mei Xue's side without her noticing.

"Why……"

"Because I didn't want to get caught. Sigh, I really didn't expect that Sister Skadi would cause a second disturbance. Although she didn't mean it, it still caused me a lot of trouble. Moreover, in order to make myself appear in this world reasonably, I preserved my legend in this land and modified it slightly, using the faith of the Great Flame and the Ursus Federation in me to reappear."

Back then, she became a fox spirit of the Great Yan Dynasty and later single-handedly facilitated the achievements of the Integration Movement. These were not decisions made purely out of conscience and morality, but also out of Mei Xue's personal needs.

As a manifestation of fate, Mei Xue could not appear in a concrete form without concrete information. Da Yan and Ursus preserved the characteristics of the fox spirit very well. Indeed, they even remembered that Mei Xue's height was 1.45 meters, which made the little fox particularly sad.

However, this was not the answer Talulah wanted to know. She knew that Mei Xue also knew very well that this was not the question she wanted to ask. The little fox was simply changing the subject.

Why didn't you take me with you?

She didn't want to know why Mei Xue wanted to run away, but rather why the little fox wouldn't take her with her. Putting everything else aside, she wasn't a sickly person like Liz; she could have easily run away with Mei Xue.

"Because I need a quiet atmosphere, um... if possible, I don't want my sister to know about me like that."

Mei Xue dislikes her adult self, largely because of her older sisters: first, it was Dr. and Precys, then Su Xue'er, and now, it's Talulah.

With his sisters' encouragement, he decided to let go of all his worries and troubles, and be a carefree little fox. This was the best thing for him, the thing his sisters liked the most, and the thing he liked the most himself.

"I suddenly regretted only recovering one year's worth of memories."

Talulah's intuition told her that she knew all of this before, but simply couldn't remember it. She had only recovered a year's worth of memories and had no way of knowing what had happened after that. However, while Talulah was a bit simple-minded, she wasn't stupid. She could tell that there was a discrepancy between this world and her recovered memories.

In Talulah's restored memories, Originium would cause Oripathy, but in this world, Originium is simply a type of energy that can assimilate non-living things.

"If my sister is willing, then... it's not impossible to fully restore her health; it's not difficult."

Meixue lowered her head and kissed Talulah on the forehead. Talulah could clearly feel that her Meixue seemed to have become more mature than before, but it didn't matter, as long as it was Meixue. Talulah returned the kiss.

"Didn't you still refuse last night?"

"Yes, because the more people who retain the original memories, the more it will become a hidden danger and burden for this new world that is still in a transitional period."

Mei Xue nodded. If possible, the little fox didn't actually plan to contact Talulah and the others. Although it was sad that familiar people no longer recognized her, it was only temporary, and Mei Xue could endure it.

However, Talulah's fate line and the little fox's entanglement were too tight, even beyond his imagination. In addition, Skadi's unconscious secondary fluctuations all exceeded Mei Xue's expectations.

However... she felt joy in her heart, even though it led to a significant increase in her workload and forced her to flee Rhodes Island. After Mei Xue finished adjusting everything at Aphrodite's house, all she felt when she opened her eyes again was joy.

No longer being able to see the future, no longer knowing how things will develop, and no longer being able to reach out and choose the path we want, this world full of unknowns and possibilities is so interesting.

Ever since his tail returned to six tails, and Mei Xue touched the edge of destiny again, that world lost its mystery for him. Or rather, from the moment Dr. Agasa made his first wish, that world became less interesting in Mei Xue's eyes.

Now, however, no longer interfering with the fate of the new world, no longer observing all possibilities, the little fox has rediscovered her curiosity. It feels wonderful, but unfortunately, Mei Xue cannot share it with Talulah.

"Then I..."

"It's alright, sister, because even if I don't do anything, you will definitely regain your memories."

"why?"

"Because you are carrying our child."

Despite having considered various possible answers, Talulah had to admit that she had just heard a reason that had never even crossed her mind, and she even reached out and picked at her ear with her finger.

"Mei Xue, could you say that again? I feel like I've gone deaf just now."

"Sister, you heard me right. Haven't you noticed that you've been eating quite a lot lately? It seems this child is a glutton too."

As she spoke, Mei Xue's expression softened considerably, revealing an emotion and demeanor that Talulah had never seen on the little fox's face before. She... even felt that Mei Xue now resembled her former father in two parts, and her mother in the remaining eight parts.

It would be inappropriate, unsuitable, and wrong to describe Mei Xue's feelings at this moment as simply paternal or maternal love. Because she was closest to Mei Xue, Talulah deeply felt the selfless love emanating from him.

"I love the brilliance of dawn breaking through the mist, I love taking a nap in the shade of trees under the midday sun, I love the sunset that paints the mountains, wilderness and even the sea in gold, and I love the brilliant starry sky."

"I like clear skies and bright sunshine; I also like thunderstorms, hiding in my own tail and enjoying that sense of security."

"I love the flowers of spring, the cicadas of summer, the fruits of autumn, and the snow of winter..."

Mei Xue told Talulah about the things she liked. If it were someone else, it would take Mei Xue a long time to finish talking about these things, but if it were Talulah, she only needed to listen to a few words to understand Mei Xue's thoughts.

"And all those people, whether they are kind or evil, generous or greedy and selfish, poor or rich, I like them all."

"Of course, there's also you, sister, and this child. As Mei Xue, I have to show even more favoritism to my friends and family."

People always say that fate is cruel and heartless, but they never think that fate simply loves everything in this world. People complain about the injustice caused by the differences in their fates, but they never think that it's just that fate cannot understand the significance of such differences between individuals.

It's like a person seeing two rhinoceros beetles. They may be different, but in a child's eyes, what difference could there be between them?

Mei Xue's love for this world far surpassed a child's love for toys. He listened to everyone's wishes and created this new world as a gift.

"Sister, come with me. I know you've already booked the tickets, but that's too slow. We only have... five days. It might not be enough to visit all the countries, but it should be enough for us to see most of the places."

"So you knew I booked a hotel room... um?"

Before she could finish speaking, Mei Xue gently pressed her index finger to Talulah's lips. Of course, Mei Xue knew this. She could even guess that Talulah was thinking about how to trick her into posing in a way she liked, but... that would have to wait until she had some free time.

"So, I want to see the world, sister, want to come with me?"

"Ah."

Being gagged didn't stop Talulah from nodding, her answer was naturally affirmative. The little fox's tail swayed gently, looking very happy. She let go of her hand and looked at Chen Huijie and Kal'tsit who were rushing towards her. Behind them were Nian Hexi and the others, ah, and Lin Qingyan and the others.

Once they realized what was happening, it wasn't so difficult for them to bypass Mei Xue's cognitive barrier.

But now, looking at Mei Xue and Talulah lying on his lap, everyone sensed that something was wrong.

It seems... something is about to happen.

The New World Chapter 40: The Couple Who Elopeed

Being found was not beyond Mei Xue's expectations. In the little fox's initial calculations, being found was a perfectly normal thing, or rather, he knew very well that he would be found. Da Yan had an unusual obsession with him, this fox spirit.

As for Nian and Xi? These two girls still haven't given up on getting Ling to call them "Mom," and they also have the key item to find Mei Xue. Besides them, almost all of Mei Xue's other children from Da Yan are also heading this way.

However, Mei Xue wasn't in a hurry to leave. He simply reached out and poked Talulah's head in his arms, signaling her to get up for the time being. There were quite a few people around, and Mei Xue felt a little embarrassed being stared at by so many people. The little fox was easily embarrassed.

"Everyone's here, sister, get up quickly."

"No."

Looking at the crowd, Talulah saw many familiar faces, such as Kal'tsit and Chen Huijie, and Nian. Talulah often ate at her family's hot pot restaurant, and the person next to Nian should be her younger sister.

Behind Chen Huijie were Specter Shark, Skadi, Lily of the Valley, and three people dressed in Great Flame attire. Talulah didn't recognize them, but felt as if she had seen them before. She was used to this feeling and knew it came from her own heart.

However, Talulah only glanced at them and said nothing more. She continued to bury herself in the arms of her beloved Meixue, rubbing against her proudly. Her tail wagged happily.

"Tsk."

"whispering sound."

"Superintendent Chen, this kind of crime carries a minimum sentence of five years under Lungmen law, right?"

Displeased, Kal'tsit felt a rare sense of displeasure as she watched this scene. She had come with questions, hoping to get answers from Mei Xue, but when she saw Talulah so brazenly, no, even arrogantly, getting so close to Mei Xue, she swore she had almost released Mon3tr to let this guy catch her.

And it wasn't just Kal'tsit; apart from Zuo Le and Tai He, all the girls who saw this scene couldn't help but frown, expressing their displeasure at Talulah's arrogant behavior.

Skadi glanced around; she hadn't brought her greatsword, but that didn't matter. She and Specter could easily kill a Drak with their bare fists!

Chen Huijie also glanced at the Crimson Sky Sword at her waist. This Dragon Slayer Sword, which had been acting strangely before, was now perfectly in sync with her thoughts. The Crimson Sky Sword was trembling, as if it wanted to jump out and stab Talulah. The Dragon Slayer Sword, how could it be called that if it didn't slay dragons?

Nian and Xi glanced at each other and felt that this scene was very familiar. Back at home, Ling had often been intimate with Mei Xue like this, right in front of them, without any restraint. Just thinking about this older sister made the two sisters grit their teeth in hatred.

Seeing someone so similar to Ling now makes me want to punch him!

"How...how utterly despicable!"

Lin Qingyan was so angry that she bristled on the spot. A bluish-white electric current flashed through her hair, causing her beautiful golden hair to stand up.

"See, sister, do you really like this?"

Mei Xue rubbed his temples. He knew this would happen. Without memories but only emotions, people are easily influenced by those emotions, and may do things, big or small, without even realizing whether they are right or wrong.

For Mei Xue, this should be something to be happy about, as it proves that the little fox holds a higher place in everyone's hearts than they imagined.

"I really like it, okay?"

Talulah raised her head, showing only half of her face to Mei Xue. The little fox could clearly see the sly smile on her lips and the rare playfulness in her eyes.

If she could, Talulah would love to lift Mei Xue high in the air right now and announce to the whole world: this is her lover.

"But people don't really like it, so please get up first, sister."

"it is good."

This time, Talulah didn't say anything more. She simply got up, put her hand under Meixue's armpit, lifted the little fox up, and placed it on her lap.

With both hands moving downwards, the forearms covered Mei Xue's exposed waist, and the palms covered Mei Xue's lower abdomen, which was equivalent to covering a third of Mei Xue's alluring parts. This action made everyone's already ashen faces even more gloomy. Now, these girls could become officials just by going to Kaifeng.

Mei Xue didn't pay much attention to her sister's indirect assertion of sovereignty, because once everyone's memories returned, she could guess what awaited Talulah. She estimated that the dragon girl would then have to face the meticulous care of her good sisters.

"Mei Xue, did you know we would come looking for you? No, now is not the time to ask that. Mei Xue, you're not a fox spirit, are you?"

"...Ah, I forgot, the cognitive barrier is still on me."

Due to the existence of cognitive barriers, Chen Huijie and others' perceptions were distorted. Even Lin Qingyan and Zuo Le had the same thought when they saw Mei Xue: this little fox must not be a fox spirit, but he is indeed the person they are looking for.

This stark contrast tormented everyone's minds, and Mei Xue reached out and removed the cognitive barrier that had been protecting her.

The discomfort caused by the strong discrepancy in their understanding vanished instantly. This time, both Zuo Le and Chen Huijie were certain that Mei Xue was the fox spirit that Da Yan was looking for.

"I have met the fox spirit."

Although they were reluctant, everyone from the Great Yan side, including Nian, Xi, and Chen Huijie, performed a solemn salute to Mei Xue. This was out of respect and also a customary practice. Regardless of how other places on this land viewed the legend of the fox spirit, for the Great Yan, the fox spirit was a belief that could never be abandoned and could never be abandoned.

“I remember saying many times that such formalities are unnecessary.”

"Yes, but the Celestial Master's Mansion has chosen to retain it. Furthermore, the Great Yan side requests your return."

Mei Xue said that such etiquette is not necessary, but that doesn't mean everyone can be too casual.

"I won't go back."

Mei Xue decisively rejected Zuo Le, which surprised Zuo Le greatly. Before coming here, the head of the Celestial Master's Mansion and the Si Sui Tai, and even his father, had said that the fox spirit was very important. However, no matter what choice the fox spirit made, they should not be surprised or have any doubts. But Mei Xue's quick rejection was really beyond their expectations.

"...We understand."
