Bad women are always eyeing me covetously.

I already... I already have Lady Emerald...

But why do you keep appearing before me again and again...?

At this moment, Xi Lan was like a helpless child, muttering something to herself.

But subtly, she didn't break free from the embrace of the silver wolf that brought her back to the bed.

Although the truth is somewhat cruel, it is indeed a reality that Xi Lan has to face.

The Star Core Hunter did indeed want to get his little fox back.

"What happened?"

Sam opened the door, poked his head out, and seeing the atmosphere inside that suggested they had just had a fight, he finally asked what had happened.

"It's nothing, just trying to keep the little guy in line."

Silver Wolf picked up a piece of chewing gum and chewed it, casually asking when Kafka would be back.

"Hmm...it should be soon, right?"

She was also a little unsure.

After all, it's a bit hard to understand how long Kafka means by "soon".

However, judging by her speed, she will probably complete all the arrangements required by fate within a few hours, no matter what.

The fact that Xilan was taken away was indeed an unexpected twist of fate.

This was something the Star Core Hunters had been planning for a long time.

Silver Wolf blinked its light gray eyes, looking at the person with their back to it, who seemed unwilling to face reality. In the end, it couldn't resist stroking the wagging tail a few times before nimbly getting off the bed.

Let's just pretend nothing happened.

----

"Good boy?"

"Little Xilan?"

"My little fox?"

One familiar name after another came from the mouth of the person in front of her, but Xi Lan looked at the woman in deep purple without any desire.

Looking into that person's eyes, now free of colored contact lenses, Xi Lan realized that those eyes, which often captivated people, could also look at her with such tenderness.

But she no longer had the energy to think about it anymore.

Xi Lan now only wants to go back to Lady Emerald's side.

"What do I have to do to get you to let me go back?" No matter what Silver Wolf said, she didn't believe that Kafka could give her a sense of security.

They wouldn't believe sweet words like "the other person won't abandon me."

Those light purple eyes no longer held the affection and intimacy they once had; they simply expressed their own needs quietly.

When Kafka, who had finally returned, heard what Yulan said, her smile froze for a moment.

The emotions welling up in her eyes were bittersweet, but Kafka concealed them well, and no one saw that complex feeling.

Good news: The person has been temporarily brought back.

Bad news: The little fox no longer believes her.

What should she do to make the little fox trust her more?

--------------

I'm not feeling well. I need to take a day off.

Three updates tomorrow.

If it really doesn't work, I'll have to take painkillers, Amen.

Chapter 101 Lady Emerald didn't teach me? I can't understand it!

Xi Lan looked at Kafka, who was half-squatting in front of her. No matter what she said, this person only treated her like her old child.

Feeding her, changing her clothes, and even trying to tell her stories to help her fall asleep.

It's almost as if they're trying to make up for everything they missed before.

But Lady Emerald had already given her all of that.

Perhaps if she were a few years younger, she might have been lured back by Kaffa's prodigal son-turned-back act.

But right now... Xi Lan is most concerned about Xing.

"Where's Xing? Is she alright?"

At this moment, she rarely took the initiative to speak, but it was clear that she was concerned about someone else.

Kafka looked at the little fox beside her, lowered her eyes slightly, and smiled gently.

Are you very concerned about the stars?

"Otherwise what? Should I be concerned about the people who lured me here?"

Xi Lan was not polite at all, but the calm expression on her face changed slightly as the other party suddenly approached.

"You, don't come here!"

She was sitting on the bed, but because of the soft headboard behind her, she suddenly felt like she had nowhere to escape.

Kafka, who had just stood up, naturally did not miss the fleeting panic in Xilan's eyes.

It seems he does have feelings for her.

Little liar.

Thinking about this, Kafka's gloomy mood eased a little.

"What are you hiding from?"

She chuckled softly a few times, then slowly moved closer.

"Are you worried that I might do something to you?" The person's voice was smiling, and although they hadn't used any spells, it was so gentle that it made you want to immerse yourself in their voice once again.

But Xi Lan held out for a while, at least not being tempted by the other person's good looks.

"Please keep your distance from me."

She covered herself slightly with the blanket, directly blocking the person's attempt to take further action.

But it doesn't seem to be of much use.

Kafka rarely showed such a limp appearance, and she practically lay on Xilan's shoulder. Indeed, when I leaned against her, the little fox's body stiffened for a moment.

You look very nervous.

"Be good, don't move, let me lean against you and rest for a while." She closed her eyes, seemingly sensing Xi Lan's tail twitching behind her.

"There's no problem with Xing. With the parents on the train protecting her, there's naturally nothing to worry about."

Just thinking about how the little guy had been chasing after me, asking where Xi Lan had gone, and then seeing...

Although she was secretly pleased by someone's tsundere behavior, her excellent facial expression control made her appear exceptionally calm.

What on earth is this person trying to do?!

Just like that, you leaned against me as if nothing had happened?!

Am I the kind of fox who's easy to bully?!

Xi Lan's body stiffened, as if she wanted the person next to her to fall violently onto the bed.

But, but...

Her good upbringing simply prevented her from doing such a thing.

While Xi Lan herself was somewhat bewildered, she simply and gently laid the body of the person who had been resting on her shoulder flat, allowing them to lie peacefully on the pillow.

These actions were performed naturally.

Even Xi Lan began to doubt why her body was so skilled.

Then, the fox lady sat on the edge of the bed, completely bewildered, hardly believing that she would do such a thing.

Since he was facing away from Kafka, he naturally didn't see her squinting at Yulan's back and chuckling a few times.

As if sensing something, Xi Lan turned around and subconsciously glanced at the person behind her, only to see a face that seemed to be asleep.

...This is not good, this is not good at all, Xilan!

Don't be fooled by their appearance! Don't be swayed by either soft or hard tactics! We need to find a way back to Xing and the others as soon as possible!

But the Star Core Hunters are still outside the door, and the room doesn't even have a single window!

Xi Lan wagged her tail impatiently, her whole demeanor clearly showing signs of agitation.

Want to go back.

I want to go back to Xing's side, back to Lady Emerald's side...

The outside world is scary.

Xi Lan pursed her lips tightly, her longing for Emerald already reaching its peak.

But the next second, just as Xi Lan was about to get up, the person behind her seemed to be in a dream, and somehow moved closer, then unconsciously wrapped his arm around the little fox's waist.

This immediately stopped Xi Lan from getting up.

What should I do in this situation? How can I get this guy to loosen his waist?

Xi Lan's mind went blank for a moment, and she began to seriously think about how to get the sleeping person to let go of her hand.
