Bad women are always eyeing me covetously.

Even so, next time she'll chase this guy away, then hold Xi Lan's hand and enjoy some precious time together.

She really liked that atmosphere.

My head feels light and airy, and I don't need to think about so many things...

Ah, yes.

You can just contact her directly. In reality, that guy might not even be around Xi Lan.

For some reason, from a distance, Huang Quan's body was emitting strange little flowers, and even his steps seemed lighter.

The robin, who had witnessed the whole thing, blinked its beautiful eyes and let out a sigh.

In a sense, a hint of curiosity flashed in the eyes of the fox lady who had just helped him.

Wasn't what just happened a dramatic emotional spectacle?

But those aren't the things we need to focus on now.

That's all for today's relaxation...

She readjusted her mask and then straightened her slightly disheveled clothes.

After all, I had promised my brother I would go out for a while... Although I wanted to wander around a bit more, it was time to go back.

Those few people were quite interesting, though.

I wonder if I'll ever see them again.

The robin smiled and squinted, even its ear feathers twitching unconsciously.

However... that fox lady still seemed quite interested in her feathers.

The robin, who was very sensitive to the gaze of others, subtly touched the feathers on the side of its ear.

That gaze, like that of someone capturing their prey...

But it also made it impossible for her to forget.

---------

"Ah!"

After taking a hot shower, Xi Lan was only wrapped in a bath towel, lazily stretching out her body.

But after sneezing, I still chose to raise the temperature inside the room.

It's her own room anyway, so it's not bad for her to let loose a little, is it?

Moreover, the work she had been preparing for for quite some time was almost finished, and she started to find herself with nothing to do again.

Humming a little tune, Xi Lan held the tail care oil she had bought, as happy as a child, and was about to give her tail, which hadn't been cared for in a long time, a gentle massage.

Just as I uncorked the conditioner, there was a very polite knock at the door.

She paused for a moment. Although she didn't know who it was, she couldn't just leave the person outside outside.

Xi Lan remained silent for a while, then finally sighed resignedly, put on her clothes, and slowly went to open the door.

Huang Quan was standing outside, but his expression was somewhat uneasy.

Wait, how did she find her room? Isn't she the kind of person who gets lost even with GPS?

"You, why are you here?"

She blinked blankly, her light-colored eyes clearly reflecting the image of the woman in front of her.

The doubt on Xi Lan's face seemed to be overflowing, and Huang Quan's lips curled up slightly.

"It's a secret."

She would never admit to Xi Lan that she had been loitering around Xi Lan's room for a long time before finally deciding to knock on the door.

Huang Quan put his hand, which was knocking on the door, behind his back, and it trembled slightly.

"I want to spend more time with you."

She spoke so frankly, yet her eyes held a faint glimmer of hope that she herself didn't realize.

The woman in deep purple lowered her eyes, her long eyelashes drooping, and that pitiful expression, which she didn't know she had learned from somewhere, appeared on Huang Quan's face.

"Can I come in?"

----------

Chapter 190 What did you do while I was sleeping?

"You come in."

She was silent for a moment, then stepped aside, gesturing for Huang Quan not to stand there like an idiot.

Sure enough, he let the other person in.

Xi Lan sat on the other chair, looking at Huang Quan who seemed much more reserved. In the end, she let him in because of her soft heart.

Okay, okay... this isn't the first time I've had this bad habit.

She just can't stand seeing anyone with that expression, yet she always ends up doing strange things because she's soft-hearted.

The main reason is that they had seen each other in their dreams before.

But I didn't expect it to be so fast, and the other person even overcame their terrible sense of direction and arrived at my room door.

It just so happened that it coincided with the time when I was taking care of my tail.

Xi Lan walked to the bathroom with some embarrassment, put her clothes back on, and awkwardly straightened the hem of her clothes.

"Um...did I interrupt just now?"

Huang Quan's eyes naturally fell on the skincare essential oil that Xi Lan had placed aside, and he scratched his cheek somewhat embarrassedly.

"No, I just finished taking a shower. You didn't bother me."

Even if it's disturbing, you shouldn't say it out loud.

Xi Lan smiled politely, and just as she was about to say something, she was caught off guard by Huang Quan's expectant eyes.

She seemed to know exactly what the other person was thinking.

"Hmm...would you like to try taking care of my tail?" Xi Lan asked tentatively.

She quickly saw those strange eyes flash for a moment, and Huang Quan nodded rapidly, as if afraid that Xi Lan would change her mind.

This sight made Xi Lan chuckle a few times, feeling slightly helpless, and she lay down on the bed.

"First, brush it thoroughly with a comb to remove any loose hairs, then apply the essential oil."

A special tail comb was placed on the bedside table by Xi Lan, who lay on the soft bed looking quite at ease.

Huang Quan's hand holding the comb trembled slightly.

"If I hurt you, please tell me, okay?"

I feel like there's something off about what I'm saying, but I just can't bring myself to say it.

Moreover, apart from those she was close to, Xi Lan had never allowed anyone else to stroke her tail like that.

It feels strangely novel.

Xi Lan, her cheeks flushed red, hummed softly, as if she had heard him.

Then she gently stroked the fluffy tail with her hand, and used the comb she picked up with her other hand to comb the tail.

The movements were very light; Huang Quan probably deliberately slowed down the force in his hands.

Regardless, she didn't dislike this method.

Some of them are even drowsy.

Xi Lan couldn't help but yawn, squinting as she lay on the bed, seemingly thoroughly enjoying Huang Quan's somewhat clumsy grooming technique.

When it came time to apply the essential oil, Huang Quan looked at the slightly sticky liquid in his hand and finally decided to apply it to the tail that felt wonderful to the touch.

"Um.."

Xi Lan unconsciously hummed, enjoying Huang Quan's technique with satisfaction: "Actually, you could use a little more force."

Even its tail unconsciously hooked onto her arm.

The plush texture made Huang Quan feel a little uncomfortable, but he didn't reject her behavior.

...If you pay close attention, it's actually quite comfortable.

Huang Quan massaged the fluffy tail with a very serious expression, as if it were his most precious treasure.

After the massage was almost over, Huang Quan reluctantly let go of her hand.

Standing up again, she could clearly see Xi Lan's face, which seemed to have fallen asleep.

Kind of cute.

Huang Quan looked at his hands and then carefully washed them in the sink.

After drying her off, she bent down slightly and carefully observed Xi Lan's sleeping face.

Then, cautiously, she extended her cool fingertips.

He touched her slightly chubby cheeks, but quickly withdrew his hand.

But after observing that Xi Lan was not acting strangely, Huang Quan, who seemed to have done something wrong, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Now, however, I can openly and honestly look at her peaceful sleeping face.

Although... I feel like I'm a complete pervert for doing this.

Huang Quan sat down on the edge of the bed, his eyes calmly reflecting the face of the silver-furred fox, who had fallen into a deep sleep.
