The Female Fox Spirit Gets Spoiled by the Big Shot-Chapter 209: First Priority
Chapter 209
The young girl's thoughts grew increasingly terrifying!
"If I'm discovered to have laid an egg, will I be taken away for research? Oh no!" Zhi Yao was absolutely petrified.
What's more, she was now a somewhat popular female celebrity! The thought of trending on social media for laying an egg made Zhi Yao feel suffocated!
That would be far worse than just social suicide!
The little girl, scared out of her wits, threw her arms around Pei Chiyao's waist and burrowed into his chest, whimpering, "Waaah! Pei Chiyao, what should we do? You'll protect me, won't you?"
Pei Chiyao looked at the girl's pitiful state and was rendered speechless.
But what could he do? He'd chosen this little fox, and he'd have to cherish her even if it meant getting down on his knees.
Pei Chiyao took a deep breath and said, "Yes, I will."
He raised his hand and gently stroked the girl's fluffy hair, surprised to find that it felt remarkably similar to Zhi Yao's fur when she was in fox form. He found himself becoming addicted to the sensation.
However, as he was stroking her hair, he suddenly caught a glimpse of something white next to Zhi Yao. He looked closer and...
How was that cat here again!?
Pei Chiyao's brow furrowed instantly, feeling as if Zhi Yao's embrace had somehow been tainted.
With a stern face, he pointed at the white cat sleeping soundly on the hospital bed and asked, "Where did she come from?"
Only then did Zhi Yao suddenly remember. Damn! She had forgotten to hide the cat.
"Well... it's a long story," the little girl said with an awkward smile, trying to reach out to wake Yan Mu up.
But before her hand could touch Yan Mu, Pei Chiyao grabbed her wrist. In the next second, the world spun around Zhi Yao, and she found herself swept up into Pei Chiyao's arms.
"You dare to touch him?!" Pei Chiyao's brow furrowed even deeper, his expression making Zhi Yao feel as if she hadn't been about to touch a cat, but another man.
Damn! Why did this suddenly feel like a scene of infidelity?!
This was absolutely ridiculous!
"I won't touch, I won't touch!" she hurriedly withdrew her hand, like a guilty cheater admitting her wrongdoing, and quickly said, "She doesn't feel as nice to touch as you do!"
Ha! That was complete nonsense. How could a person possibly feel better to touch than a cat? freewebnσvel.cѳm
But amazingly, Pei Chiyao believed her! He actually believed her!
He glared coldly at the cat and said, "Of course. I'm the one who warms your bed at night, the one who holds you while you sleep, the one who takes care of you so well every day. How could a cat compare to me?"
Zhi Yao thought to herself, "Wow."
It was the first time she'd seen someone compete with a cat for affection.
And a female cat at that.
Pei Chiyao tightened his grip on Zhi Yao's waist and carried her into the bathroom, setting the little girl down on the countertop. He squeezed out some hand soap onto Zhi Yao's hands, carefully tested the water temperature to ensure it was warm, and then guided her hands under the stream.
Zhi Yao was absolutely delighted with Pei Chiyao's attentiveness.
After Pei Chiyao had dried her hands, she couldn't resist throwing her arms around him and planting a kiss on his cheek. "Pei Chiyao, you're the best!"
She really loved Pei Chiyao so much.
"Pei Chiyao, how could I ever live without you?"
Pei Chiyao's lips curved into a smile, his eyes brimming with affection, but he still pretended to be unmoved: "Such sweet talk."
"It's not!" The little girl glared at Pei Chiyao. "If I didn't like you, I wouldn't be having your baby! Hmph! Do you think I'm such a casual little fox? That I'd have just anyone's child? I'm angry now!"
How to make Pei Chiyao stop being upset?
The answer was: act even more upset than him!
Sure enough, seeing her like this, Pei Chiyao immediately softened. He gently patted the little girl's back and said, "I'm sorry, don't be angry. You have our baby inside you now, you can't get angry. It's not good for the baby."
Zhi Yao pressed her advantage, "Hmph, baby this, baby that. Is that all you care about now? Now that there's a baby, you don't like me anymore, is that it?"
When it came to being unreasonable, Zhi Yao had never lost.
"How could you think that?" Pei Chiyao was a bit surprised. He had grown accustomed to the little girl's mercurial nature.
But considering Zhi Yao's pregnancy, his tone was even gentler than usual. "Yao Yao, you should know that no matter what, you're always my first priority. Do you understand?"
This silly little fox. freeweɓnovel.cøm
He didn't particularly want a child; the reason he wanted a child was to bind Zhi Yao to him.
Perhaps it was because his tone was so incredibly gentle, or his gaze so profoundly deep, but in that moment, Zhi Yao found herself completely captivated...
Soon, the little girl forgot all about being unreasonable. She threw her arms around Pei Chiyao, nuzzling against his chest. "Will you stop being jealous from now on? Pei Chiyao, why are you so prone to jealousy?"
Even jealous of a cat.
But... the thought that this was Pei Chiyao's way of showing how much he cared for her made Zhi Yao's heart melt with sweetness.
Pei Chiyao could sense Zhi Yao's emotions just as clearly. Amused, he pressed the little girl against the wall and leaned down to capture her lips in a kiss.
The kiss was passionate and intense, making Zhi Yao tremble.
"Pei..." Zhi Yao opened her mouth to speak, as she thought she heard footsteps, but as soon as she uttered the first syllable, Pei Chiyao pressed his lips to hers again, silencing her.
"Mmph..."
The footsteps were getting closer. Zhi Yao raised her hands, desperately pushing against Pei Chiyao's shoulders, trying to push him away. But her strength was far too little; against Pei Chiyao, it was like an ant trying to topple a tree.
Zhi Yao was so anxious she was on the verge of tears, especially because... because she felt Pei Chiyao's hand starting to slip under her clothes.
And those footsteps were getting closer and closer...
If someone were to see her and Pei Chiyao like this in the bathroom... Zhi Yao felt she'd never be able to show her face in public again.
"Such a shy little fox," the man's low, husky chuckle sounded in Zhi Yao's ear. The little girl had completely melted in his arms, unable to utter a single word.
She could only glare angrily at Pei Chiyao, but unfortunately, he didn't care in the slightest.
Ling Si's voice sounded from outside the door. "Strange, where is everyone? Are they in the bathroom?"
"Yao Yao? Pei Chiyao?"
But at the moment, neither of them had any time to respond to him.
Then, Ling Si started walking towards the bathroom.
One step, two steps, three steps, four steps...
The man's hands were still roaming mischievously over Zhi Yao's body, making her even more flustered. Then... she heard the sound of the doorknob turning.
Oh no, oh no, how will she ever face anyone again!
Zhi Yao quickly covered her face with her hands, attempting to hide from the situation like an ostrich burying its head in the sand.
If... if Ling Si were to see this, she'd never be able to show her face in public again, oh the horror!
She desperately tried to burrow deeper into Pei Chiyao's embrace, hoping to use his tall frame to shield herself from view...
