"Trust me, in the field of fox research, you can't find anyone more professional than us in Xia Country..."
"The little fox's fur color and smoothness are simply the most marvelous I've ever seen among foxes." Wang Ya heard Ah Qing's hesitation and immediately, without hesitation, spoke words of sincere praise.
"Not only is it an innate advantage, but it's also thanks to the careful cultivation by its caretaker that creates such a marvelous and exquisite winter special fluffy snow fox!"
"R-Really?"
Ah Qing looked at Wang Ya bewilderedly and then side-eyed the little fox on her shoulder, making eye contact with Fox Fox.
Although Ah Qing really liked the little fox and even learned to cook fox food for it, she initially could only afford to buy pork due to limited finances.
Now she had a bit of a balance, but the richness of the canteen meals snuffed out her idea of cooking special treats for the little fox in the dormitory. In fact, the little fox often brought back high-end ingredients from outside....
Being praised by fox expert Wang Ya like this, Ah Qing's face visibly reddened, and she muttered weakly:
"Well..... the little fox's development is really not much related to me. Xiaolan fetches high-end seafood for nourishment when hungry....."
"???" Wang Ya, upon hearing this, had the first reaction to give Ah Qing a question mark.
Master Fuli can shop online, I know, but if you say it fetches high-end seafood....
Where is the sea in Chang'an...
Wang Ya's mind was tangled with black lines, and she sat chatting with Ah Qing by the roadside, learning about Master Fuli's past of bringing her grouper fish, red king crab, and lobsters, instantly filled with an unspeakable envy.
What a perfect fluffy creature, capable both literarily and martially, and it even could use the kitchen's steam oven to bake lobster...
"Oh..... the little fox is indeed clever. No more talking. There's an archaeological excavation on the other side. I have to go back and dig up the ancestors. If you guys have time, you're always welcome to come over and hang out. I'll treat you to milk tea then..."
Wang Ya waved her hand like making an escape, quickly retreating from the fields of Mawang Village. Because Wang Ya felt like her mouth was mumbling, as if stuffed with a handful of dog food.
If she didn't run, she might not be able to maintain the demeanor of a pampered lady and drool all over the place.
"Goodbye, I'll go find Big Sis Wang Ya to hang out when I have time!" Ah Qing happily waved goodbye to Wang Ya.
"A certain female fox is about to grind her teeth to pieces." Ansheng looked at Ah Qing with a strange expression and made a sarcastic comment.
In a certain sense, Wang Ya seemed to have affectionate feelings for any fluffy creature she saw, but Master Fuli should be the one she loved the most in her heart.
Fox Fox, fox-human, and human's threefold state, possess a deadly attraction to those fascinated by furry creatures.
Although Ah Qing hadn't driven, Ansheng vaguely saw that Wang Ya's cheeks were covered in tire tracks as he left, and Ah Qing's words had hit Wang Ya like a massive truck.
"Hehe....."
Ah Qing sat back down by the roadside irrigation canal, took out her cellphone from her hoodie pocket, and looked at the little fox with a mysterious smile: "There was some good news earlier! If Fox Fox can guess it right, you'll have an extra drumstick in your bowl tonight!"
"...... Could it be that Old Deng and Chen Peipei, at home, shuddered and churned out a little brother for you?"
Ansheng squatted at the irrigation canal, wagging his tail, and began to sarcastically comment, Ah Qing let herself guess, but didn't give any clue, who knows what the good news is.
"Ah this..."
Ah Qing suddenly widened her eyes, seemingly not daring to believe it as she looked at Ansheng, could he even guess half of it right?
"Wait a second..... What's that expression? Could there really be an extra person in our family?" Seeing the look of shock on Ah Qing's face, Ansheng was instantly shocked as well.
Old.... Old Deng is this ferocious?
"We don't plan on adopting a third Fox Fox at home, Dad just sent me a message. Look..... never mind, I'll read it to you!"
Ah Qing raised the phone to the little fox, but suddenly recalling something, she withdrew it with an embarrassed look.
The little fox may be smart, but that doesn't mean it can understand Chinese characters!
"Dad said the Cultural and Tourism Bureau of Jiule City has found the official event planning team of the tea competition, and they sincerely invited the two of us to serve as online promotion ambassadors at the tea competition venue!" Ah Qing said with joy, but there was a faint trace of worry on her cheeks:
"Although I feel that my hard work has paid off, being invited to serve as a promoter for a serious competition....."
"Can we really get the job done right? After all, our livestreaming style is famously wild..."
Ah Qing is well aware of the content of her live streams.
Her and Xiaolan's livestreams are either about wild animal antics, bizarre events, or harassing fishers, or encountering unusual customs during outings.
"Steady!"
Ansheng looked at Ah Qing, not saying anything more but just showing a confident expression, letting out a soft noise.
Tea industry, tea competitions, tea tastings, and the professional knowledge required during live broadcasts, perfectly fall into my lap, allowing me to act as I please.
Ah Qing may be young and naïve, but wouldn't I know better?
"Please trust my professionalism, let's say that my tea tasting knowledge was honed by Old Chen. I will handle everything related to tea expertise!"
"Unless there's some national-level certificate holder, otherwise, I'll verbally spar with them all on the spot." Ansheng raised his head slightly, with a proud look on his face.
"You can't call yourself Lin Bei, it's impolite." Perhaps infected by the little fox's confidence or Ah Qing genuinely trusted the little fox's prowess, her anxiety eased as she hugged the little fox and kissed it.
......
As time approached noon, students piloted drones to spread fertilizer over hundreds of acres of farmland, then began packing up to return to campus for lunch.
After eating lunch at the canteen, Ansheng greeted Ah Qing, saying he was going to find the chubby cat, and leisurely strolled out.
Upon arriving at the campus hideout, Ansheng immediately spotted the chubby cat lying on the carpet, scratching its butt while watching TV.
"You truly never leave the door, huh!"
Ansheng quipped at it, bouncing towards the main seat of the tea table and sitting down. He reached out to press the electric water pump, starting to heat water to brew a pot of tea to aid digestion:
"By the way, where's the Black-skinned Rabbit? You didn't send it to the principal's office, did you?"
"I did go out! I just rode an electric scooter around the campus for a few laps to exercise. The rabbit went to the School of Animal Science to study with the Medicine Spring Mountain Lord."
The chubby cat turned its head, scratching its head while speaking: "It seemed to be learning something like a system of linear equations, or something else, I forgot, anyway, it was quite boring...."
"?"
Hearing what the chubby cat said, Ansheng was about to make a phone call, but looked at the cat with utter bewilderment and asked, filled with thick suspicion:
"Are you saying... a single-variable linear equation?"
"Maybe? They casually mentioned it, and I casually listened without caring much." The chubby cat shrugged.
"Ridiculous..."
Ansheng expressed amazement, shaking his head, and made a phone call to the old hedgehog lady, informing her to let Ah Bai visit Changxi Town tonight if free, rewarding the greedy snake with two tons of beef. Later, when I return, I'll reward it with a few bottles of Spirit Particle Potion.
Special reward for the greedy snake's meritorious village protection.
But next time, let Old Lin pass, acquaintances from our Spirit Beast Gang don't prey on their doorstep.
After finishing the phone call with the old hedgehog lady, Ansheng called Lin Bingyun to have her meet at school, later taking her for a trip to the Ba Mountain Sky Pit.
If things go smoothly.
Tomorrow, both Ah Qing and Lin Ying will be able to enjoy Treasure Tree roots stewed with old chicken to nourish their bodies.
