Talulah, I'm still a child.

"Oh, I... isn't this right across from my house?"

Chen Huijie was dumbfounded. What kind of fate was this? They were even neighbors! How could she refuse? Given Kashina's teaching qualifications, her salary was already quite good. What reason did she have to refuse her now?

"If you have no other questions, then let's sign the contract. I've already drafted it."

"...I have another question before that."

"Excuse me."

Kashina picked up her coffee and took a sip. To prevent Chen Huijie from finding fault, she had designed many backup plans this time. In fact, as long as she could get close to Mei Xue, the salary was completely irrelevant.

"It's nothing really, I just wanted to know what type of woman you like, Ms. Kashina?"

This question almost made Kashina spit out her coffee. She suppressed her discomfort, her lips twitching slightly, and looked at Chen Huijie with shock. So, this is what you're worried about?!

"I like mature women."

"That's good, then sign it."

When Chen Huijie heard that Kashiana preferred someone more mature, she was genuinely relieved. Mei Xue didn't seem like the mature type at all. However, she clearly forgot that she herself wasn't Mei Xue's type either.

Meanwhile, Mei Xue was still working diligently. The little fox had saved all the money he won in the lottery because his salary from Penguin Logistics was enough for him. He also liked the job, being able to freely travel through the streets and alleys of Longmen. Exusiai and the others would also introduce him to all sorts of interesting places.

"Please sign here for your package. If possible, could you please leave a five-star review?"

Seeing the little fox in front of him keeping its distance just like in the legends, its obedient, cute, and shy appearance made him feel affectionate. Fengti nodded and gave it a five-star review, and even took out two candies from his pocket and handed them over as a tip.

"Thank you, big brother~"

Mei Xue was naturally happy to receive positive reviews and candy. He put the candy away and then took the order slip and headed towards Lin Yuxia's candy store.

Because this was a slum, Exusiai and Texas were not entirely at ease and quietly followed behind Mei Xue to prevent any accidents from happening to the little fox. After all, the slum was a notoriously chaotic place, with all sorts of people from all walks of life.

However, they soon realized they had been worrying too much. The little fox was like a mascot wherever he went, not to mention encountering any danger. Even when he passed by, people would recognize him and give him two candies as a gift. During this time, there was one fool who wanted to cause trouble, but he didn't know if he hadn't checked the almanac before going out. First, he was hit on the head by a flowerpot falling from upstairs, then his face was splashed with dirty water, and finally, he couldn't see where he was going and stepped into a sewer marked "Manhole Cover Replacement," and he disappeared without a trace.

"Isn't Mei Xue's luck a bit too much?"

"He's won over 30 million, so there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with that."

"Makes sense."

Exusiai nodded, then peeked out and watched Mei Xue walk into the candy store.

After all, it wasn't the first time she'd come, so Mei Xue wasn't as nervous this time. Lin Yuxia was still standing at the front desk, but for some reason, the way she looked at her this time was a little subtle, like surprise, or like some kind of apprehension. But all the little fox had to do was get her to sign, and then, like Exusiai and the others had taught her, act cute and leave a five-star review.

"Sister Lin, this is your package. Could you sign here and leave a five-star review?"

"of course can."

Lin Yuxia nodded. She hadn't expected that Mei Xue would be delivering the package to her today. She had seen many rumors about this little fox online. To be fair, it was indeed cute, but ever since her father, the Rat King, told her Mei Xue's true identity a few days ago, Lin Yuxia subconsciously developed a sense of awe towards this little fox.

According to the Rat King, Mei Xue is one of the most untouchable people in the world; anyone he dislikes will likely have a rough time.

"Thank you, sister~"

"You're welcome, it's not a big deal. Aren't you going to buy some candy today?"

"No need, I've already received plenty."

At this point, Mei Xue couldn't help but wag her tail happily. Whether the candy was bought with money or copied with her tail, the candy she received from the recipients today was definitely the best. These candies gave Mei Xue a sense of recognition.

(I really want to rub his head.)

Looking at Mei Xue's twitching ears, Lin Yuxia suddenly had this thought. Mei Xue's ears, like his tail, were very eye-catching, and it was hard for Lin Yuxia not to think about touching them or something.

"I'll be going now~ Goodbye, sister!"

After delivering Lin Yuxia's order, Mei Xue's work for the day was finished. She could use the remaining time to do other things, such as preparing a gift for Linglan and buying some things that Miss Black Snake needed. Although Miss Black Snake herself hadn't said anything, she had been appearing more and more frequently and for shorter and shorter periods of time lately, and she was mostly asleep. Even Mei Xue realized that something was wrong.

Brother, have you had lunch yet?

Seeing Lily of the Valley's greeting on the screen, Mei Xue replied that he was going to eat later, and then ran happily toward Exusiai and the others. He had a lot to do today.

On Rhodes Island, Suzuran looked at the reply on the screen and silently put away her communicator. At this moment, she was particularly envious of Mei Xue's tail, which could freely store any non-living thing. Just thinking about it made her envious; she could take as much stuff as she wanted when she went out.

(As expected of Brother Meixue, he's really amazing.)

After silently praising Mei Xue, Ling Lan began to formally enjoy her lunch. Rosemary, Wu Lian, and the others sitting not far away looked at her strangely. They didn't know why, but they felt that Ling Lan was different today, the most obvious being her smile.

If Suzuran's smiles in the past were out of politeness, Suzuran now looks like Talulah has met Meiyuki; her smile is pure happiness, and she's always staring blankly at the communicator, as if she's chatting with someone.

"What's wrong with Lily of the Valley? Something feels off."

"That's what I think too. Lily of the Valley must be hiding something from us."

Putting everything else aside, Linglan never used to sit in such a secluded spot when we ate together. She usually ate with everyone. Now it seems like she's deliberately hiding some secret. But what is it that she can't let everyone know?

"Why don't we just go and ask them directly?"

Popka tentatively offered his opinion, but Wulian ruthlessly shook her head and rejected it. If she asked directly, Suzuran would definitely use some other excuse to brush her off.

"You can't peep into other people's privacy, or you'll become a bad kid."

Seeing Popka's timid appearance, Wu Lian silently buried her head in her food. Anyway, she was just a bad girl herself, so looking back wouldn't do anything. If all else failed, she could just let Xiao Mo take the bait; he wasn't even human.

Unaware that her best friends had their eyes on her, Linglan was still thinking about where to go with Meixue after their meeting. She had never been to Longmen, and Meixue said that she had only been there for a short time and was not familiar with the area. So she needed to prepare a plan in advance and choose some places that the other party would like.

(By the way, does this count as a date?)

Linglan covered her face; she couldn't help but let her mind wander again. It seemed that whenever it came to Meixue, she would unconsciously apply a filter, a pink one at that.

"Miss Lily of the Valley, what are you thinking about?"

Amiya's sudden voice startled Lily of the Valley, almost making her tail bristle. However, she quickly calmed down and watched as Amiya sat down in front of her.

"It's nothing, I just really want to grow up quickly."

Lily knew that Mei Xue should never be mentioned in front of Amiya, because Amiya seemed to really like Mei Xue.

"I also want to grow up as soon as possible."

Amiya smiled and replied that she had wanted to become an adult several years ago, but time always moves at its own pace, and she was still of legal age. Lily noticed that the ring on the middle finger of her right hand was missing.

"Sister Amiya, why is one of your rings missing?"

"Ah, I've taken that ring to be serviced for now."

Of course, that's a lie. In reality, the ring is on Shining right now. That ring was blessed by Mei Xue. It will unconsciously make the holder gradually get closer to Mei Xue. It's a tracking item. It's excellent for catching someone cheating. The only problem is that you can't bring it directly to Mei Xue. Otherwise, Amiya wouldn't have cried when she played hide-and-seek before.

"A ring... I'm so envious of Amiya. But I remember it was a gemstone ring, wasn't it a gift from Dr. Kal'tsit?"

Linglan couldn't help but feel a little sentimental. She had seen Amiya's ring before; it was exquisitely crafted and beautiful, the kind of ring any girl would like.

"no."

Amiya shook her head, looking at her empty middle finger. She still remembered the scene when the ring was put on her finger that day. At that time, she and Mei Xue were playing house, and it was a normal game where Amiya played the mother and Mei Xue played the father. But then the Doctor, who was their neighbor, suddenly said that she was the third party and that Amiya and Mei Xue were not a couple because Amiya didn't have a ring. This made Amiya cry and make a scene, which angered Kal'tsit so much that she chased her and hacked her for three blocks.

"That's my engagement ring with Brother Meixue."

For a fleeting moment, as Amiya finished speaking, it seemed as if the sound of shattering glass echoed around them. Lily's face suddenly turned grim. She picked up her favorite cup from the ground, tried to calm herself, and then smiled at Amiya.

"Really... I'm full, Amiya, you can continue eating."

Lily wagged her tail gently. For a moment, she actually had the thought that she hoped Amiya would choke on her food. Fortunately, she quickly suppressed that malice. Amiya also thought it was her imagination, because Lily was a well-known good girl, gentle and cute. How could she hate someone for no reason?

However, Linglan's mind was in complete turmoil. Although she knew that Amiya and Meixue had a good relationship, she never expected it to be like this! Wouldn't that make Amiya her biggest rival in love?

So, does that mean she's fallen for Amiya's fiancé? That means... no, Mei Xue doesn't remember Rhodes Island anymore, nor does she remember Amiya, so this marriage is invalid, that's right!

Mei Xue, far away in Longmen, suddenly felt a chill run down her spine. The little fox wagged its tail and then took out money to buy the last item that Miss Black Snake specifically requested.

"Now I can go home!"

Mei Xue doesn't plan to go to Penguin Logistics this afternoon. He needs to go home to finish the preparations and get the gift ready because Chen Huijie just messaged him saying that Kashena will be meeting him at 5 pm, which is a bit rushed.

"Sister Black Snake, is this enough?"

That's enough.

Miss Black Snake lazily lay on Mei Xue's head, but she was overjoyed. Once she took over Kashena's body, she would have the ability to touch Mei Xue, and then... hehehe.

Chapter 96 Miss Black Snake finally couldn't hold back and made her move (two-in-one)

He had no recollection of Kashena Meixue, nor did he know what she looked like. He simply prepared the tea as instructed by the Black Snake, then sprinkled special incense in the room. After finishing his tasks, he sat on the sofa and watched Kamen Rider. He had bought a complete set of Kamen Rider Faiz tapes on his way here today. The little fox also took out the belt that Swire had given him. Although he couldn't transform, that didn't stop the little fox from learning the poses from the video.

Just as Chen Huijie and Kashiena pushed open the door, they happened to see the little fox in the house standing barefoot on the sofa, holding the transformation device with a serious expression, just like that night, except this time he learned it from watching TV, so he didn't notice Chen Huijie and Kashiena entering the door.

"I've made up my mind. I will fight as a human being, and as a Faiz!"

Seeing the already adorable Mei Xue pretending to be serious like a little adult and making those embarrassing poses, Chen Huijie subconsciously covered her nose. The contrast between the little fox's cuteness and her innocence made it even harder for her to resist.

(So ​​cute, I want to pin him down on the bed and...)

As for Kashina? Although she told Chen Huijie that she liked more mature men, Miss Black Snake knew best that this girl was a complete purist. Because she had been single for many years, she had developed a preference for younger men. Saying that she liked mature men was just a lie to Chen Huijie. Now, an idea was popping into Kashina's head uncontrollably.

(So ​​cute, I want to hug and kiss you!)

Kashina had to admit that she was smitten. Mei Xue was exactly her type. She quickly suppressed the bad thoughts in her heart and secretly warned herself not to show her bad side. She had only gone to teach college students because she couldn't stay in elementary school. It would be shameful if she were to be obsessed with a girl again.

The little fox didn't notice anyone coming in at the door. Instead, he was engrossed in watching TV, putting on his stockings while staring at the screen, until his left tail poked his face and pointed towards the door. Only then did Mei Xue turn her head away.

An awkward silence fell over the room. Only the television continued to play images and sound. Mei Xue suddenly realized that her childish side had been exposed again. She subconsciously glanced at the time. Wasn't she supposed to arrive at five o'clock? It was only four-thirty!

(Oh no, it's bad enough that my older sister saw this, but now my future teachers will see it too...)

Under the watchful eyes of Chen Huijie and Kashena, Mei Xue's face gradually turned into an alluring pink, her tail wagging frantically, and it seemed as if air was emanating from her head. Realizing that she had lost face, she jumped off the sofa without saying a word, not caring whether she was barefoot or not, and immediately turned off the TV at a speed that Chen Huijie couldn't even see. Then she transformed into a white shadow and rushed into her room.

"I'm sorry... Mei Xue is a little shy."

"It's okay, she looks quite cute."

Kashina was thankful for her composure, otherwise she would have been embarrassed just now. Chen Huijie glanced at her face and thought to herself that Kashina was really composed, able to remain unmoved even in this situation. It seemed that at least there was no need to worry about her having any inappropriate thoughts about Mei Xue.

"Then I'll go talk to him. Miss Chen, would you like to come in?"

"I……"

Chen Huijie should definitely go in. Although Kashena seems unmoved by Mei Xue at the moment, she still needs to do her best to prevent any accidents from happening. All possible threats should be nipped in the bud.

However, before she could finish speaking, the sudden ringing of her phone made her take it seriously. She glanced at it and saw that it was a text message from Hoshiguma, saying that someone from the Great Yan was coming and that she should hurry back to the Guard Bureau.

"Why now of all times..."

Reluctantly putting away her communicator, Chen Huijie had no choice but to return to the Guard Bureau first. She looked helplessly at Kashena, indicating that she might be quite busy.

"I'm sorry, sir, I have to go back to the station for a bit. As you know, there are frequent job changes for senior superintendents."
