Fox Demon: Why did your brother beat you up every day at the beginning of the month?

"Oh! It's Miss Ya Ya." Tu Shan Ya Ya's ears twitched. She turned around and saw an old woman pushing a cart, wearing patched old clothes. Ya Ya smiled and waved to the old woman happily.

"Hey, hello Aunt Li."

"Oh, good girl, we're going to your aunt's house for steamed buns later."

"Thank you, ma'am!"

Upon hearing that there would be steamed buns to eat, Tu Shan Ya Ya smiled even more happily, her pure white fox tail swaying from side to side.

Dongfang Haoyang was slightly taken aback when he looked at Tu Shan Ya Ya's profile. The corners of his mouth involuntarily turned up. He hadn't expected that this little fox demon would be so cute when she wasn't throwing a tantrum.

At this moment, the owner of the steamed bun shop looked at Dongfang Haoyang and Tu Shan Yaya standing to the side, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.

"You two must be a couple, right?"

"Miss Ya Ya, is this your boyfriend? He's certainly handsome!"

The two were instantly stunned! Dongfang Haoyang's two tufts of hair stood straight up, and Tu Shan Yaya's ears even perked up!

"Boy friend?!"

"My girlfriend?!"

"It's him/her!" x2

Seeing the two pointing at each other and both showing disgust, the owner of the steamed bun shop twitched his lips.

Hmm, could I have seen wrong? No way, I can spot every couple in the village perfectly, and they all get married 100% of the time. I've never been wrong...

The two men's expressions of disdain made the boss feel somewhat insecure.

"Um...aren't you two a couple?"

"No way?!"

"Wait a minute, otherwise... why would Miss Ya Ya have taken this young master's money?"

Tu Shan Ya Ya tilted her little face up, crossed her arms, and hummed.

"What he owes me is just interest."

"Hey! Don't lie!"

"Mind your own business!"

"Hmph!" X2

Seeing this, the boss wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and inwardly cursed.

This is clearly a young couple having a little tiff! If these two aren't a couple, I'd eat my words! They're so in sync, how can you say they aren't!

"How about... I make a bet with you guys?"

"What kind of bet?"

Dongfang Haoyang looked at the boss with some displeasure.

"Ten years, no, eight years! You two will definitely become a couple! How about we make that bet!"

Tu Shan Ya Ya and Dongfang Hao Yang's lips twitched simultaneously.

"How is this possible!" X2

"Hey, let me tell you the truth, my eyes have never been wrong! You two are definitely going to become a couple!" The steamed bun shop owner confidently crossed his arms and looked at the two of them, with a few bamboo skewers and copper coins next to the table.

"Boss, you'd better stop joking..." Dongfang Haoyang waved his hand dismissively, looking speechless.

"That's right, that's right..." Tu Shan Ya Ya echoed. The two looked at each other, snorted, crossed their arms, and turned their heads to the side, refusing to look at each other.

"How about this, we'll bet a silver ingot! What do you say?" The shopkeeper, seeing the two men's expressions, was even more convinced of his judgment.

"Forget it, I don't want to gamble on something so absurd."

Tu Shan Ya Ya nodded in agreement.

The two were about to leave.

"Hey?! Don't go..."

The boss gritted his teeth, watching the two figures disappear into the distance, becoming even more certain of his thoughts! This also ignited his competitive spirit!

He refused to believe that his unwavering judgment would fail him on these two individuals! He had to gamble to maintain his winning streak!

Thinking this, he took out a silver ingot from his pocket and threw it over.

Dongfang Haoyang took the silver ingot in his hand with a puzzled look, not quite understanding what the steamed bun shop owner meant.

"Okay! I'll pay, consider it a bet! If you win, you keep the money; if you lose, I won't ask for more, just give me double back."

Just as Dongfang Haoyang was about to refuse, Tushan Yaya snatched the silver and stuffed it into her bosom.

"Are you stupid? Why not gamble? You're not taking a guaranteed ten taels of silver! Do you think you're rolling in money?"

As she spoke, she grabbed Dongfang Haoyang's hand and pulled the big idiot aside!

"Hehe, old man, we'll bet!" Tu Shan Ya Ya laughed cutely and gave the steamed bun shop owner a thumbs up!

"Hmph, fine, I'll be waiting for your two ingots of silver!" The old man crossed his arms and smiled knowingly as he watched the human and demon leave.

A little while later, Tu Shan Ya Ya dragged Dongfang Hao Yang to Aunt Li's house. At this moment, she had no idea about the task Rong Rong had assigned her that morning; all she could see was her longing for delicious food.

"Oh! Miss Ya Ya is here! Please come in, please come in!" Aunt Li's eyes lit up when she saw that Tu Shan Ya Ya was accompanied by a young boy.

"What a handsome young man! Is he your boyfriend, Miss Ya Ya?" Tu Shan Ya Ya's lips twitched violently.

Dongfang Haoyang was also speechless. Why did they get asked the same question every time they met someone? He really couldn't see what made him and Tushan Yaya a good match.

"Auntie, we're not in that kind of relationship, you've misunderstood!"

It was rare for Dongfang Haoyang to agree with Tushan Yaya.

"Anyone who marries him will be cursed for eight lifetimes..." Tu Shan Ya Ya said, pouting, and didn't forget to give Dongfang Hao Yang a disdainful look.

"Hey! Miss Ya Ya, that's a bit much with the personal attacks! I didn't do anything to you, why are you always cursing me?"

"How come you didn't provoke me! You hurt my sister, spanked my bottom, and even..." The old lady next to her saw Tu Shan Ya Ya's face turn red and her eyes widened instantly! This news is too explosive! These young people nowadays, oh my god.

If they're not a couple, then I'll eat! Thinking this, a kind smile appeared on the old woman's wrinkled face.

"Sigh, young couples, it's normal to bicker a little. Try to think more about each other's good points. As the saying goes, 'A fight at the head of the bed is reconciled at the foot of the bed.'"

"Auntie, you've really misunderstood. Don't listen to her nonsense! I'm just her bodyguard, at most a half-colleague."

"Oh, a colleague."

Aunt Li chuckled, and judging from her expression, she didn't believe it at all...

The two entered the house, which was an adobe house with a simple earthen bed inside. They sat on the earthen bed, with a large table set up in front of them.

"Hey, you little fox demon, aren't you being a bit too greedy? Taking money and freeloading, there's a limit to shamelessness!"

"Pah! You're shameless! I'm naturally beautiful, and all these villagers like me. They think I'm cute and are willing to give me good food. It's none of your business!"

"I think you're just jealous of me, humph!"

Dongfang Haoyang's lips twitched, and he was about to retort to her.

"Hey, haha, here come the hot steamed buns!"

Tu Shan Ya Ya's mouth watered as she watched the old lady carrying a full tray of fragrant steamed buns!

"Damn, you just ate four big buns and you're still eating?! Don't make your stomach burst..." Dongfang Haoyang said to Tu Shan Yaya, somewhat speechless.

"Tch! Mind your own business!" Tu Shan Ya Ya held a big meat bun in each hand and shoved it into her mouth, glancing at Dongfang Haoyang as she ate, smacking her lips vigorously.

"Here, what's your name, young man?" The old woman handed him two large meat buns.

"Thank you, ma'am. My name is Dongfang Haoyang." Haoyang then took out a silver ingot from his pocket and handed it to the ma'am.

Not taking a single needle or thread from the masses is a principle ingrained in his DNA.

"Oh dear, this won't do, this won't do!"

"This is too much money." The old woman was a little frightened and hurriedly waved her hand. This one ingot of silver was enough to buy more than a hundred bags of steamed buns for her.

"Auntie, just keep it. This guy has too much money. What will he do when he runs out and needs more cash? Humph!"

Dongfang Haoyang rolled his eyes at Tu Shan Yaya, but still smiled and said to the old woman, "Auntie, consider this money as payment for the steamed buns I sold you." As he spoke, he picked up a hot steamed bun, took a bite, and immediately the delicious juice melted in his mouth.
