Chapter 239 The Moon Is Like His Hair
"I was actually considering it, breeding him, that is." Li Meirong rubbed the tip of her chin. "But I’m waiting for Snowball to bring over a little missy whenever he’s ready for it."
"What kind of nonsense is that? You’re his owner. You should find an appropriate Fox Spirit to breed him with." Bao Li reprimanded Li Meirong. If the lass kept thinking that way, who knows how long it would take until she’d be able to adopt a baby Snowball of her own?
"You have a good point, but I still think that right now, he’s a bit too young for this." Li Meirong countered.
Bao Li slowly turned back and regarded the Fox Spirit laying on the bed with covetous eyes.
"Fine then. I’ll be waiting..." She said.
’Snowball’ locked eyes with the small, young mortal girl and felt his fur stand on end.
’What is this frightening feeling? Have I taken leave of my senses?’ Bai Yu couldn’t help but mentally berate himself for fearing the look in this little girl’s eyes!
His whole body trembled as he lamented his own misfortune. Why, wasn’t this scenario almost as terrible as facing off against that Xiong Mei girl?! Why was he always privy to such dangerous situations?!
Not only did it feel like his own hide was in jeopardy by Her Ladyship’s subordinate, but he was also in a near death situation when the dreadful time would finally arrive to report his findings to His Lordship!
How... just how should he go about explaining to His Lordship that his wife thinks he prefers men over women, was smooched by a girl and now, to top it all off, wants to breed her husband with another fox?!
Bai Yu decided that the less he knew, the better!
"Master, I’m going back home to sleep, alright?" ’Snowball’ faked a loud yawn.
"Good night. I’ll see you soon." Li Meirong’s voice turned a tad softer as she answered her adorable Fox Spirit.
In a flash, Bai Yu hopped off and sprinted right out of the open window.
Li Meirong stayed with Chou and Feng Huang over at Bao Li’s place until midnight.
It didn’t take too long for Bao Li to doze off after Snowball’s early departure. When the head chef could no longer keep her eyes open, Li Meirong had lifted the drunk girl from the stool and carried her to bed with Chou’s help.
She was ready to leave only after ensuring Bao Li was properly tucked under a blanket.
After going back and forth from the pocket dimension time and time again, Li Meirong had been told by the dimension’s scroll that much like a storage bag, she was able to summon and deposit items into the dimension at will.
Surprisingly, she discovered that she could also deposit living beings into the dimension as well.
She brought the slightly intoxicated Turtle Demoness and the grumpy Plant Spirit back into the dimension, preferring to conceal their presence than to openly reveal them within the sect grounds.
After ensuring her pets were safely hidden in the dimension, Li Meirong trudged outside, walking with small uneven steps due to her own inebriation.
Outside, in the servants’ courtyard, a gentle breeze blew by. The lantern lights illuminating the sect grounds had all been extinguished. The only remaining source of light was that of the moonlight, gracing the darkness with its presence from high above.
Li Meirong swept aside her long, unbound hair as she looked up, basking in the moonlight that shined so brightly, surrounded by an array of glittering stars.
"The moon is like his hair," she whispered to herself, tittering foolishly. "Sometimes it seems so white, and sometimes it shines like silver."
"Just like an old man!" Suddenly, Li Meirong’s whisper turned into a loud shout. She raised a fist and flailed it in the air.
"You’re an old man, Zhu Qingyue!"
While she stared at the moon, she could suddenly see a faint silhouette of a person flying on a mount towards her.
Li Meirong stayed rooted to the spot, her lips parted in surprise.
Could it that Xiong Mei had already spoken to her psychotic cow, and came back to bother her again?
Or... could it be that because she called his name, he finally returned?
