Talulah, I'm still a child.

The two little foxes never separated their hands. They sat down together and started chatting about anything, such as Suzuran's life on Rhodes Island and Meixue's work. In just one day, the shyness and distance between them turned into a lively conversation. Because of her lack of common sense, Meixue sometimes said things that Suzuran found very interesting.

The laughter of the two little foxes became the most touching sound in this quiet night, but the fox-catching team on the other side was still carrying out the search. Everyone knew that Mei Xue was fast, but they did not expect the little foxes to be so vigilant.

"As expected, Exusiai is the most useful in times like these."

Watching Exusiai walk ahead, acting as a walking light, Croissant couldn't help but think that Sarkaz could be quite convenient at times, except when it was time to sleep, which was rather torturous.

Shining had it easy; her Originium Arts were related to light, so she could light up the way with a simple tap. Blaze relied entirely on Rosemary, while W and Ines were completely lost. They hadn't expected that there were no streetlights in Lungmen, so they were totally clueless and regretted not bringing flashlights.

Hiding in the shadows, Black Cloak watched this group of people. They were also dumbfounded. Penguin Logistics was understandable, but Shining and W seemed to have appeared out of nowhere. However, the insignia on Blaze and Rosemary were easy to recognize; they were clearly from Rhodes Island. Although the company wasn't very famous, it had a good reputation and was a partner of Lungmen not long ago.

(P.S.: Rhodes Island is not among the top companies in Terra as many people think; this is explicitly mentioned in the story.)

Now the question is, how did all these people get involved with Mei Xue? Hei Su really couldn't figure it out, but apart from the people from Penguin Logistics, the rest seemed a bit off, especially those two Sarkaz, who even brought out sacks.

"Speaking of which, Zhenlong also used a sack when he captured him."

Nian stroked her chin, knowing a lot about Mei Xue's dark history. The little fox had done many foolish things in the past, but her own was even more unbearable to recall.

What happened here naturally couldn't be kept from Wei Yanwu. He estimated that those young guys from the Surveillance Department should be rushing over here by now. Tonight is going to be quite lively, and they might even start fighting.

Mei Xue knew nothing about these things. He simply chatted with Ling Lan about various things, from the things he liked to the people he liked, including Ling Lan herself, who listened more and asked more questions.

Actually, they prefer to hear each other's stories rather than their own trivial matters, hoping to understand each other better in this way, so that even the most minor details won't seem boring.

"I actually have another gift I wanted to give you."

Mei Xue's tail swayed gently, and if it weren't for the cold white moonlight, Ling Lan would have noticed that he was actually blushing shyly.

"I've been thinking about what gift to give you ever since you said you wanted to meet me. Then that night I saw people setting off fireworks outside, and that's when I got an idea!"

Mei Xue became especially excited when she said this, wagging her tail rapidly, clearly unable to contain her excitement. Ling Lan suddenly realized what this final gift was.

Look over there!

Mei Xue pointed to the square across the river. As the little fox finished speaking, a red shooting star shot out from the ground in Linglan's eyes, trailing a long tail of flame as it bloomed into the most beautiful flower in the sky.

With the sound of fireworks shooting into the sky, dozens of bright spots appeared out of nowhere and flew into the sky from below. From Lily of the Valley's position, she could see each bright spot explode and bloom into a beautiful flower. In an instant, even the night sky was illuminated, and the dark sky was transformed into a sea of ​​light flowers. As the previous fireworks disappeared, the next ones took their place. Fireworks fade quickly, but flowers bloom in abundance.

Linglan watched this scene quietly, unable to focus on anything else. Her tails swayed gently as she moved closer to Meixue.

Another firework exploded in the sky, transforming into Linglan's lovely face. She gazed at the scene with a voice, while Meixue stared at her in a daze. Both of their tails were now free, and they drew closer to each other in the light of the fireworks.

It was indeed a beautiful scene. Even the people who were preparing to catch the little foxes were drawn to the dazzling flowers that were constantly blooming. They happened to walk out of the dense forest and saw the two little foxes sitting on the riverbank. The glow of the fireworks illuminated them.

What made everyone feel even more suffocated was that half of Mei Xue's and half of Ling Lan's tails were perfectly joined together to form a shape.

At that moment, they felt an indescribable sense of frustration and loss, as if they had truly wasted their lives. W was so angry that she was practically fuming, and was just short of pulling out her bomb.

Seeing Mei Xue and Ling Lan pressed together like this, Shining felt an indescribable sense of loss. She glanced at the ring on her hand and sighed.

Now they knew without being told that Suzuran, who had suddenly appeared out of nowhere, was the biggest winner.

When the fireworks ended, Linglan couldn't find the right words to describe her feelings. To everyone's surprise, she excitedly tackled Meixue to the ground and kissed her back. At the same time, she reached out and picked a flower from the lily of the valley in the flowerpot and placed it in Meixue's hand.

"This lily of the valley is for you~"

This time, Linglan didn't call the little fox "brother" again, and her words were worth pondering. Meixue was a little confused, but she still smiled and accepted the gift, intending to put it in her tail. Only then did she notice that her tail was tangled with Linglan's again.

The two little foxes blushed again and quickly separated.

You asked about other people? Oh, I'm furious.

Texas drew her lightsaber, Exusiai wielded dual pistols, and W pulled out a bomb she was carrying... All we can say is, thankfully, some of these people aren't on the scene right now.

Meanwhile, many people, apart from Talulah, felt their heads getting heavier again.

Chapter 109 The Little Fox Competition Begins!

Mei Xue and Ling Lan, the two little foxes, walked along the road hand in hand. They were too lazy to care about their intertwined tails, because as long as they stayed close together like this, their tails would stick together more intimately than anyone else's when neither of them was paying attention.

However, behind them, all the girls except Shining had taken out sacks and ropes, preparing to tie Mei Xue up and pack her up to take away. Every time the little fox sensed something was wrong and turned around, they would hide perfectly well, making Mei Xue wonder if she was being too paranoid.

Regardless, Chen Huijie was almost there, and the little fox breathed a sigh of relief. He just couldn't figure out who was chasing him over at the other end of the forest park. The little fox thought that he hadn't offended any bad people in Longmen.

Seeing that Meixue and Linglan still had no intention of separating, W and the others became increasingly angry. Was this some kind of predatory behavior, or were they supposed to be taking them home right away? Weren't you guys moving so fast? Are kids these days so precocious?

Originally, the eldest sister planned to wait until Meixue and Linglan were separated before stuffing him into a sack. But now, these two little foxes are practically hugging each other, let alone separated. Meixue looked thoughtfully at the lily of the valley flower she had just picked. The little fox didn't know the meaning Linglan had hidden in the flower, but he wanted to keep the flower safe and put it in his tail to ensure it wouldn't change.

Perhaps because of her previous boldness, Linglan still doesn't dare to look Meixue in the eye. She walks with her head down, occasionally stealing a glance at Meixue's reaction. When she sees him looking at the flower, Linglan becomes even more shy. Only she knows that giving away that lily of the valley flower is equivalent to giving herself away. It is a kind of entrustment and trust. Although they have only known each other for a short time, their feelings are real.

"Um...brother, what should I give my sister?"

Linglan felt a little uneasy. After all, this was her first time meeting Meixue's parents, and she would be staying at Meixue's house for two more days. She should definitely try to build a good relationship with Meixue's sister.

"Well, Sister Chen doesn't have anything she particularly likes."

The little fox gently wagged his tail. He felt that Chen Huijie was quite easy to please, a very kind person, honest, hardworking, and good at managing the household. She was also beautiful and handsome! No wonder she and Talulah were sisters; they seemed very similar.

"Sometimes, even when you're angry, a kiss like this is all it takes to make her feel better."

As she spoke, Mei Xue kissed Ling Lan on the cheek again, causing Ling Lan to turn into a steam engine. However, unlike before, she didn't just feel shy; instead, she returned the kiss in kind.

What was originally just two little foxes affectionately nuzzling each other, a simple act of interaction, turned out to be something else entirely. Croissant looked at Exusiai in front of her; this girl had completely turned to the dark side. Even the halo around her head had dimmed considerably. Speaking of which, what were those black parts on the halo? They must be dust! Texas, so your hair can turn red?!

(Oh no, these two have completely turned evil!)

Seeing the two women rubbing their hands together, even drawing guns and swords, Croissant had no doubt that they had already planned to kill them to silence them, and had even chosen where to bury the little golden fox. No one could tolerate their loved one being intimate with another woman in front of them.

Of course, one couldn't expect a foul-mouthed and short-tempered cockroach to tolerate this. Looking at the two little foxes over there, W was already about to throw the bomb in her hand, but Ines stopped her in time, and pointed to the three black-clad figures standing on the telephone pole over there.

"W, I advise you to be rational."

If Ines hadn't sensed something amiss earlier, she wouldn't have known about the three men in black cloaks. She hadn't even noticed when they were standing there. Putting everything else aside, their level of concealment and their profound aura alone would have made them both difficult to deal with. With all three of them working together, they would have had to find a way to escape.

"Be rational my foot! Do you expect me to watch that vixen steal my fox?"

W retorted, then noticed the three black-clad figures on the telephone pole. However, being a well-behaved and extremely irritable person, W dared to curse even Theresis, let alone these few newly appeared black-clad figures.

"What are you looking at? Haven't you ever seen someone catching someone cheating before? Aren't you afraid of falling off that telephone pole?!"

The men in black cloaks who were inexplicably scolded weren't angry. After all, they were all older and wouldn't argue with a young girl like W. Instead, they began to seriously consider what the relationship was between Mei Xue and this group of people.

Honestly, this is a really sweet story, especially when Mei Xue and Ling Lan were watching the fireworks by the river. The fans said they were touched by the sweetness, and even the older folks enjoy this kind of plot.

However, W's voice was a bit loud, and Mei Xue, who was discussing with Suzuran whether to watch Ultraman Dekae or Kamen Rider Build after returning, along with the other trackers, all looked towards the location of W and Ines.

W's voice sent a chill down Mei Xue's spine. The little fox didn't know why she felt an instinctive fear, but she had an urge to pick up Linglan and run away as fast as she could.

It was this turn of her head that made the little fox notice that so many people were following her, especially Exusiai. Although her halo wasn't very bright after it dimmed, it was still quite conspicuous with her wings. There were also the two cats, Blaze and Rosemary, as well as Shining. Only now did Mei Xue realize that so many people had been following her all along.

"on!"

Seeing that the situation had been exposed, Huang stopped pretending and rushed forward with the sack in hand. Rosemary also ran over to try and hold off Lily of the Valley.

"There were other people too?"

The Penguin Logistics team was also stunned, but Texas still ran out immediately. Exusiai wisely opened fire to stop Blaze's steps, creating an opportunity for her companions. However, her remaining rubber bullets were all blocked by an invisible hand when they approached Rosemary, and the little cat's speed was not affected at all.

"Ines, if you keep waiting, you can use your toys to fill the void yourself! I won't even give you a drop of soup!!"

After saying that, W ignored the black-clad figure and threw two flashbangs and a stun grenade towards Mei Xue's direction. Then, he grabbed the sack and rushed over, making sure to put on his sunglasses to avoid being accidentally injured later.

"I used profanity in a friendly team conversation!"

Ines didn't bother to think about Black Cloak's purpose anymore and rushed after W. It wasn't that she was worried that W wouldn't let her touch the little fox after he succeeded. If W didn't give it to her, wouldn't she still steal it? She was mainly worried that something might happen to this guy.

Suddenly being rushed towards by so many people, the little fox's instinctive reaction was to run, but as he was holding Linglan's hand and turning around, he bumped right into Shining's arms after taking just one step.

"Sister Shining!"

Lily wasn't surprised to see Rosemary and Blaze, but she didn't expect Shining to be there too. She knew Shining had been on a mission recently, but she didn't expect that he was also there for Mei Xue.

Do you know what a lily of the valley is?

Mei Xue looked at the older sister in front of him and wanted to apologize out of politeness, but then suddenly remembered that now was not the time to apologize. Before he could say anything, Shining reached out and pulled him into her arms, then grabbed his tail to help cover his ears. Linglan over there also reacted immediately, crouching down with her head in her hands and wrapping herself into a ball with her tail.

The flashbangs and stun grenades that W threw exploded instantly. The intense light and loud noise stopped everyone except for Lily and Snow. W took off her headphones and sunglasses, pulled out a dagger, and quickly approached Shining. She knew that the bright light and sound just now would not have much effect on this pardoner.

However, W's current state was no match for Shining. She didn't even need to take anything; with a wave of her hand, golden light transformed into threads that danced at her command. With a mere swipe, she sliced ​​off the tip of W's dagger, successfully blocking the wicked woman.

"Sweetie, go wait for me over there."

Shining gently patted Mei Xue's head. Seeing the confusion in the little fox's eyes, she smiled and reached out to stroke his face before shielding him and Linglan behind her.

The situation on the field is a bit chaotic right now, but everyone's goal is obviously the same. Blaze didn't bring any weapons, but she probably carried small Originium casting units like Rosemary. W and Ines probably only brought a few weapons so that they could act more easily. The people from Penguin Logistics... are not a high threat either.

In other words, aside from the three black-clad figures watching the show, only Rosemary is a threat to Shining now. No, those black-clad figures couldn't have appeared without a purpose, nor should they have been standing still, unless... there's another one?!

"Oh, you actually managed to spot me. You're quite capable after all."

Seeing that Shining was looking at her, Nian simply stopped hiding and walked out from the corner behind Mei Xue. In fact, she had been standing there just a moment ago.

"Sister Nian!"

The little fox's eyes lit up, and he excitedly jumped into Nian's arms, as if he had found his pillar of support. Actually, he should have hugged Texas and the others first, but the little fox felt that if he hugged them now, something bad would definitely happen.

"Mmm~ It's me, don't be afraid."

Being hugged by Mei Xue was truly satisfying. Miss Nian said she felt great; she had wanted to do this for a long time, and she even couldn't resist kissing Mei Xue on the cheek.

Perhaps because he already had an inexplicable trust in Nian, and was startled just now, Mei Xue instinctively chose to rely on Nian and unconsciously hugged the leg of the biggest man in the room. However, he noticed that Ling Lan's tail wagging seemed to indicate that she was... unhappy.

This is why the men in black cloaks didn't make a move. They knew very well that Nian cared more about Mei Xue's safety than anyone else. Let alone getting him hurt, even if a single fox hair fell to the ground, Nian would still fly into a rage.

"My God, so many people!?"

Croissant, who had regained her sight and hearing, looked at the large group of people around her and couldn't help but fall into thought. She just wanted to join in the fun, but how did things turn out like this?

Indeed, the current situation is quite awkward. A large group of people are staring at Mei Xue, and the little fox feels quite embarrassed by these gazes, especially W. W's gaze makes Mei Xue feel like she might be devoured whole if she's not careful.

The little fox instinctively reached into its tail, took out a bottle of insecticide, and threw it at W.

"..."

As W looked at the insecticide that rolled in front of her and the words "Miraculous Cockroach Killer" highlighted in red, her face gradually darkened. She could even hear Ines's undisguised maniacal laughter behind her.

"No way, W, you... Hahaha, he's still the one who can annoy you the most."

W was furious. She even doubted that Mei Xue had lost her memory at all, since she still remembered her.

"Mei Xue, do you know her?"

Seeing this, Nian could more or less guess that W and the others must have some connection with Mei Xue, but the little fox himself didn't remember any of that. He just hid behind Nian and carefully looked at W's furious face, especially her two red-streaked hair, and subconsciously called out a nickname that suited her very well.

"Cockroach bullies?"
