"Why are you still bothered about the Fox Lady issue? A partner like you would surely get hit hard by your partner in our Security Bureau..."Ansheng looked peculiar, threw a glance at Ah Qing, and started to mock directly.
"I wouldn't say always bothered, just that when Fox Ladies keep popping up around me, I occasionally think about it." Ah Qing pouted, responding somewhat dismissively.
Everyone has a love for beauty, especially when you've witnessed people around you transforming into Fox Ladies one by one.
Ah Qing gradually realized something; the ancestors of Xia Country might have been lacking in productivity, but they've always been on point in aesthetics, and foxes indeed enhance beauty.
After friends went through Blessed Fox Transformation, not only did their personalities become more lively and cheerful, but their looks also seemed to have a filter on.
Ah Qing wasn't especially keen on Blessed Fox Transformation, just thinks about it roughly three hundred days a year.
"By the way, where are we going now? Weren't you taking me to the market to buy groceries?"
Perched on Ah Qing's shoulder, Ansheng explained the principle of Blessed Fox Transformation wasn't the same as Spiritualization, and while doing so, he looked at Ah Qing with puzzled eyes and asked.
"Umm... Dad and Mom quarreled last night, and Mom kicked Dad out to sleep under a bridge."
"We're going to fetch Dad back now." Ah Qing said the purpose of the trip, with a peculiar expression on her face.
"Chen Peipei quarreling with Old Deng? That's rare." Hearing this, Ansheng expressed his confusion.
Chen Peipei has a rational character, and Old Deng belongs to the harmonious and prosperous personality type.
Ansheng had never seen them have a heated argument, more often than not, he would witness the couple being lovey-dovey.
"You'll see it soon enough, Mom couldn't stand Dad finding a third party." Ah Qing showed a hesitant expression, slightly speeding up her steps as she headed toward the pier area in Sea Fishing City.
And in the pier area.
Behind a group of fishermen, Ansheng finally saw what Ah Qing referred to as the third party.
Rain Zhenghong appeared carefree, carrying a large sleeping bag on his back, from which a giant grouper poked its head out, with its fins resting on Rain Zhenghong's shoulders, happily surveying the pier.
Rain Zhenghong occasionally took out a bottled water from his bag, pouring it over the grouper's head, ensuring the beloved Yuyu on his back maintained moist skin...
"?"
Ansheng's expression froze upon witnessing this scene, slowly typing out a question mark:
"Your dad... turned into a mount refined by a grouper?"
Hearing the sharp jab from the little fox, Ah Qing's expression slightly froze too, eyes widening as she stared at the little fox.
"Uh... Although your description might make Mom very sad, it's quite accurate..."
In the fishing group, there's occasional teasing saying one can lose a wife and still cope, but let a big fish cut the line and escape, and that's truly a loss.
Should a big fish cut the line and escape, even on their deathbed, reminiscing would make one sit up and slap themselves, regretting choosing the wrong line.
Old Deng's addiction wasn't that bad, but even when carrying the grouper back to the room last night, placing it on the table still met Chen Peipei's intense opposition.
Chen Peipei, with a single hand, grabbed the grouper's tail, throwing both the fish and the husband out of the hotel room.
The panic-stricken grouper carried Old Deng as they slid down the fire escape to the first floor.
"Your mom is quite admirable, single-handedly grabbing a nearly two hundred jins grouper like a club, throwing both the mount and fish out of the house." Ansheng said with a trace of irony.
"Ah ha ha..." Ah Qing laughed awkwardly twice, unsure how to salvage the reputation of her dad and mom.
...
After retrieving the lost Old Deng, Ah Qing took Ansheng to the market to order food; whatever Huhu pointed at was purchased by Ah Qing to nourish Huhu.
After buying groceries, Ah Qing carried the food to Qiu Lingling's relatives' seafood restaurant to be processed.
The whole family ate together, and Ah Qing hugged Huhu back to the hotel room first, helping wash away the fatigue from going out, then lay down on the bed together.
"Sniff sniff..."
Ah Qing buried her head in the little fox's chest, vigorously rubbing Huhu's fluffy fur, expressing joy triumphantly:
"A freshly cleaned Huhu is refreshing, the stinky Xiaolan has become nice and fragrant again..."
"Nonsense, I wasn't smelly!"
Ansheng rolled his eyes, picked up Ah Qing's phone from the bedside, and sent a message via WeChat to Jin Wanlin, inquiring about the Treasure-Seeking Mushroom matter.
"You're the smelly one, of course..." Ah Qing lay humorously beside the little fox, raising her hand to pat the little fox's bottom, pinching twice, enticing:
"If you could inject two doses of Spirit Particle Potion, then our family's Huhu would surely be the most fragrant."
"You see, when eating crab earlier, I specifically used crab tools to pick meat for you, borrowing your butt tonight isn't too much, right?"
Crab tools are utensils used for eating crabs, perfect for extracting all crab meat professionally.
Of course.
For most, having crabs on the table means just biting into it, at most asking the kitchen to crack the hard shell of the crab claws, no other tools needed.
Ah Qing generally employs brute force, currently hasn't encountered a crab capable of competing with her jaw strength...
However, the little fox disliked saliva from her gnawing, so Ah Qing had to use a little tool.
"Alright! Given your hard work, I'll lend you my butt for two minutes tonight."
Seeing Ah Qing's expressive eyebrows, Ansheng decided to reward her.
As Ah Qing turned around to rummage through her backpack for the Spirit Particle Potion.
The WeChat notification tone sounded.
Sister Wanlin: [Master Fuli, Old Feng reached the destination as instructed, but the locals are tough, Old Feng and his team cannot infiltrate the native circle...]
[This situation might still require your personal intervention.]
"Hmm?"
Lying on the bed with his tail swaying, Ansheng saw Jin Wanlin's reply, displaying a hint of surprise.
Although the Treasure-Seeking Mushroom might lack a natural guiding talent, Ansheng had personally witnessed Treasure-Seeking Mushroom singlehandedly overcoming [Zhu Jiuyin].
From a certain perspective, the Treasure Mushroom could naturally suppress most Second Epoch fungi.
Moreover, by ingesting these Second Epoch fungi, a unique black mushroom is formed.
Ansheng replied to Jin Wanlin, asking for a detailed account of Old Feng's encounter.
Jin Wanlin: [A bit hard to evaluate... The thing you're looking for is parasitic on monkeys, somewhat like Fungal Beasts.]
[Just as Old Feng and his team landed, they were greeted with mortar fire from the "locals," narrowly avoiding being turned into water ghosts.]
[Currently, although they exhausted the opponent's ammo, the situation isn't optimistic, as the opposing side is flinging dung...]
Jin Wanlin briefly summarized Old Feng's ordeal.
Their adversaries weren't human but a group of monkeys infested with fungus.
Given it's abroad where firearms regulation is lax, Old Feng and his team faced fierce gunfire from the monkeys upon reaching the shore.
"What? Competing in firepower with our Spirit Beast Gang?"
Seeing the message from Jin Wanlin, Ansheng's expression turned subtle.
Competing in firepower...
Does the other side have several munition factories?
