Bad women are always eyeing me covetously.

They weren't very familiar with each other to begin with, and this was only their second conversation.

However, it seems that the other person is just here to rest for a while, so it's better if she doesn't disturb them.

Just as Xi Lan was about to head elsewhere, Yu Kong called out to her.

"Please wait a moment, Miss Xilan."

Yu Kong moved a little closer to Xi Lan, still wearing that gentle smile, though she looked somewhat forlorn in Xi Lan's eyes.

"Tingyun once consulted me and said that the guests on the Starry Sky Train had never interacted with fox people, nor did they have some of the fox people's habits."

"So she came to me for advice on what kind of books to give to that young lady. I naturally recommended some books for fox children after they start to learn to read."

So... she recommended that book back then?

Xi Lan seemed to recall the teaching process, which was comparable to a fairy tale, and her expression became somewhat subtle. "...Miss Tingyun is a good person."

But such a fine fox shouldn't have met such an end.

When the topic turned to Tingyun, who had treated her fairly well, now whose fate was uncertain, she felt somewhat unsure of what to say.

In particular, this Ms. Yu Kong seems to have a very good relationship with the other party.

"I just didn't expect her to recommend those books to you. But it seems like they weren't very helpful." Yu Kong smiled sheepishly, then took out his terminal: "If you need anything, you can add me as a friend. You can ask me anything you don't understand."

After all, Yu Kong watched Tingyun grow up and raised Qingni, so he's bound to be good at taking care of children.

Yu Kong glanced at Xi Lan, who was taller than him.

Hmm... the other person should be considered a child, right?

After all, they don't understand the basic knowledge of fox people, and they always have a kind of youthful innocence.

She only observed Xi Lan briefly, and based on her experience in judging people, she could tell that the little fox in front of her was not very old.

It even seems that they are not yet adults within the fox-human age range.

She just looks more mature.

Xi Lan blinked in shock, seemingly not expecting Yu Kong to take the initiative to add to her goodwill.

Even though they have absolutely no connection, doesn't it seem like the other person is a little too concerned about me?

Completely unaware that she was being treated as someone who needed attention, and being a young fox who hadn't yet reached adulthood, Xi Lan cautiously added Yu Kong's friend request.

Yu Kong, who accepted the friend request, seemed to be in a pretty good mood.

"As for the problem of not being able to control pheromones, you can go to the pharmacy to ask about the situation, otherwise it may not be good for your health."

Even without getting close, her naturally sensitive sense of smell could detect the uncontrollable pheromone scent emanating from Xi Lan.

The soft, sweet aroma of milk lingered in her nose, and even she couldn't help but swallow a few times.

However, Yu Kong, who controlled his facial expressions very well, naturally did not show anything unusual.

With a gentle smile, she patted Xi Lan's shoulder affectionately before leaving. However, in Xi Lan's eyes, the other person's steps seemed a little too quick.

Xi Lan subconsciously touched her neck. In any case, she now knew the key to solving the pheromone problem.

"Ms. Yu Kong is such a good person."

Even though he was gone, his great figure was deeply etched in her heart.

After exchanging a few messages with Ms. Emerald about going out, Xi Lan adjusted her mood slightly before leaving the bridge.

But... which pharmacy that Ms. Yu Kong mentioned is the most reliable one?

Xi Lan looked at the map route on the terminal, but did not notice the small figure rushing over recklessly as if it were hiding from something.

When she realized what was happening, Xi Lan realized that someone had knocked her to the ground.

The tiny little girl nestled in her arms, while her icy-cold tail unconsciously lashed out at her thigh.

It hurts a little.

"Are you OK?"

After all, the other person seemed to be just a child, so as an adult, she naturally had to take care of him.

"Wow! Let me hide, let me hide! I'll help you after it's all done! Please, please!"

The little girl with dragon horns huddled in Xi Lan's arms, curled up as if she couldn't breathe.

Xi Lan could only sigh helplessly.

Don't you suspect I'm a bad person?

Although she didn't know what had happened, Xilan couldn't refuse the child's request.

In the end, he took off his trench coat, completely enveloping her in it.

She awkwardly adjusted her posture while holding the child, making it look more like she was holding an infant.

As for the child of the Wisdom Clan, his chubby face was completely nestled in Xi Lan's soft embrace.

Within minutes, Xi Lan saw many maids of the Chiming Clan looking around hurriedly, and even some Cloud Cavalry soldiers.

She had no idea about the origins of the little one in her arms... but it seemed that someone had noticed Xi Lan's side.

The reason was that the little one in my arms was being a bit restless.

"Sweetie, we're going home soon. Stop making a fuss and be good. Mommy will buy you tea milk."

As she skillfully patted and soothed the child in her arms, Xi Lan's face radiated maternal love.

It seems that her face was somewhat alluring, which reduced the number of suspicious glances.

But there are still people watching this area.

"Listen to me. If you don't want to be discovered, call me Mom and act like a child. I'll let you out once they leave."

Xi Lan lowered her voice, looking at the Yunqi Army soldiers who were about to ask questions, but the maternal love in her expression became even gentler.

Although what I was learning in my mind was mostly Kafka's attitude towards her at the time.

When the Yunqi Army was only a few steps away from her, the little one in her arms seemed to have figured things out, and the crying that had been brewing for a long time burst out.

They didn't care about saving face anymore; it's a rare opportunity to go out and have fun, so they might as well find a mother figure for them. Just being able to go out and have fun was a success!

"Wow!!! Mom lied! I want milk tea!!! This isn't the way to the milk tea shop!!!"

Without warning, the little one in her arms started to make a fuss, almost making it impossible for Xi Lan to control him.

When the Cloud Cavalry saw the child making a fuss in Xi Lan's arms, they abruptly changed course and turned away.

Xi Lan could still hear what the other person was muttering.

"The Dragon Girl would never call a stranger 'Mom'... Sigh, I guess I was overthinking it."

After watching the group leave again, Xi Lan lowered her head and glanced at the Dragon Girl, whose face was flushed red and whose eyes were red, looking like she was about to cry.

"Okay, is it all done, Mom?"

...

What am I holding in my arms?

Chapter 131 Caught on the Spot, Will He Dare to Do It Again? (Bounty: 8/21)

But fate always likes to play tricks on people.

Just as Xi Lan was about to put the suffocating dragon girl down from her arms, her eyelids twitched uncontrollably.

As if sensing something, Xi Lan turned her head and immediately saw Xing grinning sheepishly.

Why do I always run into this guy?

While she was filled with doubt, the gray raccoon came over without any hesitation, very curious about what was in Xi Lan's arms.

"You didn't hear everything just now, did you?"

Xi Lan hugged the Dragon Girl in her arms and pulled her back into her embrace, then silently kept a distance from Xing.

"...I saw you when I was checking the mailbox just now...or rather, I was there when you were pretending to be a mother..."

Xing also wished that Xi Lan would treat her so gently, with such a loving and maternal demeanor.

Just thinking about lying so happily in her arms makes me feel like I'm going to faint from happiness.

Xing leaned closer, looking aggrieved, but her golden eyes caught sight of the little dumpling waving its hand, struggling to emerge from her soft embrace.

"Bai Lu?"

Bai Lu, who had been gently placed back on the ground by Xi Lan, was panting heavily, supporting herself on the leg of the person next to her. She looked genuinely uncomfortable from being suffocated: "Cough cough cough, it's me. Keep your voice down, those guys finally got away..."

Xi Lan lowered her head slightly, glanced at the water stains on her chest, then looked at Xing's longing expression, and finally silently covered her chest, keeping a distance from Xing.

For some reason, I felt that Xing's gaze just now was a little strange... as if she was being watched by something.

"The person has already gone far away, so if nothing else happens..."

Xi Lan subtly wagged her tail, still not expecting that the little girl from the Wisdom Clan in front of her would be the legendary Dragon Girl.

She had just asked the other person to call her "Mom".

Um... never mind, it was just helping out.

But she had to admit that being called "Mom" was quite nice... It seemed to awaken something deep within Xi Lan.

However, the still innocent Xi Lan did not understand that her situation was called XP awakening.

Now that the matter was more or less resolved, and she still had some things to take care of, it was best to leave this awkward situation as soon as possible.

Just as Xi Lan was about to take a step, she was grabbed by the two people in front of her, one big and one small, who hugged her body and legs respectively, making her completely unable to move.
