Chapter 8

  In the quiet and clear night, most of the foxes in Qingqiu had already fallen asleep in their houses. The silent night seemed to be left with only the twinkling stars, but the residence of the young master of the East Hall of the Fox Palace was still dimly lit.

  Hou Qiudian brought in a tray with tea and snacks, saw Wen Tingzheng holding a pen and sitting at the desk, reading the things that the Fox officials had given him today.

  Hu Qi put down the food case on the edge of Wen Tings desk, thought for a moment and didnt leave immediately. Curiously, he asked: "Young Master, besides those two times, have you ever met that little white fox called Yunmian?"

  "No."

  He stopped his brush and looked up: "Why ask this?"

  Nothing, nothing at all, just curiosity.

  "Oh."

  Wen Ting saw him and thought he didnt seem to have anything else to say, so he lowered his head again and continued making notes in the book.

  Hu Qi was actually very curious, seeing Shao Zhus lowered head, he looked over at him with a puzzled expression, sizing up his profile.

  The future young masters wife is no trivial matter. That night, the young master mentioned a strange womans name, even startling Lady Hu.

  The young master didnt have a close relationship with any female foxes, but even so, the Fox Masters wife thought he would at least mention a familiar girls name. However, she had never heard of the person he mentioned. The young master didnt explain further and simply told her about the little white foxs family background before returning to the palace, leaving the Fox Masters wife surprised and puzzled as she went to ask others for information.

  Clouds sleep.

  After all, in the eyes of others, the young master and that little white fox had no intersection. If it werent for him coincidentally being by the young masters side twice, he probably wouldnt even know who he was talking about.

  But Hu Qi thought about it and couldnt figure it out, so he asked again: "But if youve only seen her twice, why did you choose that little white fox as your wife?"

  Wen Ting paused for a moment in her hands.

  The seven-tailed fox began to analyze on her own: "Young Master, youve only seen that little white fox twice, and both times were from a distance while sitting in the carriage. You havent even had a conversation with her, so its not like youre familiar with each other. I dont know how clearly you can see things, but as someone who has reached the realm of true immortality with seven tails, from my position, I couldnt even make out what that little white fox looks like - all Ive heard is that she supposedly has a red birthmark on her forehead, but I dont know what shape or size it is... Let alone human form, I couldnt even see her in fox form clearly, and I have no idea what kind of personality or hobbies she has. Luckily, Im not one to be overly concerned with such things... But Young Master, why on earth did you agree with Fox Lady to choose her as your fiancée? Was it really love at first sight?"

  Hu Qi was frank in nature, and the puzzled air in his words did not hide at all. When these words fell into Wen Tings ears, they also made him slightly stunned. After a long time, he said unknowingly: "...... I remember her eyes."

  "...eyes?"

  Wen Ting didnt respond immediately.

  He closed his eyes and immediately conjured up the small white foxs clear gaze in his mind.

  He indeed didnt get a clear look at her appearance, but those clean eyes had been etched in his mind and kept surfacing from time to time. He couldnt explain the emotions himself, only knowing that he had never felt this way about anyone else before. He just couldnt shake off the feeling of... unease.

  Reopening her eyes, Ting Huan explained: "My mother wants to settle these matters as soon as possible, naturally for my own good. Im going through the Spiritual Fairy Tribulation, which isnt particularly perilous, its just that it will take some time. Up until now, everything has been smooth sailing, and I havent done anything to disappoint Father and Mother, so they probably didnt expect... This tribulation of mine might also be one from which I wont return."

  Hú Qī was shocked.

  Wen Ting didnt stop, but continued to speak: "Im now going through a critical moment, and I should be able to handle it with my own strength. However, things in the world are unpredictable, and I fear there might be unexpected events. If I dont return, Im afraid Ill bring trouble to the person who has promised to marry me... Originally, I was planning to wait a few more days before making any decisions, but coincidentally, I met her..."

  Wen Ting thought for a moment, but then the others beautiful eyes floated into his mind again. He continued to say: "Ive also asked Huo Guan about her recently, and heard that she has no one to rely on, is often bullied by the surrounding foxes, and doesnt have many friends... If I choose her as my fiancée, it would be a way of protecting her for now. The other foxes nearby may know that shes an orphan, but since shell be my future wife, theyll still pay attention to her and wont look down on her. If I were to die in the future, my parents will probably take care of her more, which would be better than before. And if I can return... this kind of thing requires mutual affection; if she doesnt want to have an engagement with me at that time, we can dissolve it then."

  Hu Qi had been stunned for a long time, he never thought that the young master at this age would think so deeply and complicatedly. After a long while, he finally said: "Young Master... is indeed kind-hearted."

  A faint blush appeared on Tings face, but she said softly: "...... Its not like that. The human heart is hard to fathom, and I dont know if what Im doing is right or wrong. I just hope it wont make her feel awkward instead."

  "It must have been destined."

  Hú Qī smiled and comforted him.

  It was already late, Hu Qi put away the tea and snacks, then quietly bid farewell and left.

  After Hu Qi left, Wen Ting sat quietly in his seat for a moment before continuing to look at what he was looking at earlier. However, when he saw the words on it, he looked slightly dazed.

  What I saw earlier was indeed the result of the previous assessment conference.

  It has been over a month since the assessment conference, and after the hard work of the fox officials in Qingqiu City, the results were finally released recently. This years Bai Yue had thousands of little foxes, they sorted out the observation results and assessment results for many days, and finally sorted out 50 outstanding lists to give him, and then let the young master himself choose, five in one, and selected the last ten people as companions.

  The process can be said to be cruel, and now after layers of screening, those who can reach his hands are all among the best of their peers, and its not far from the disciples who entered the Fox Palace later. Wen Ting naturally looked carefully, and at this time, the name written on the record in his hand was "Xi Yuan".

  Wen Ting had previously inquired about Yun Mians news from Huo Guan, and had already learned the name "Xue Yuan", knowing that he was the red fox who had bullied Yun Mian twice. Now, seeing him here was unexpected.

  Among the thousands of foxes, Xī Yuáns overall assessment ranking was first, with almost no mistakes, except that his personality was somewhat unfavorable. Accompanying the young master to read and cultivate ones temperament and character is also extremely important. The main fox officials responsible for teaching and testing did not know about Yunmians affairs, but after scratching their ears and cheeks, they finally wrote down his name, mostly because they couldnt bear to give up on this talented individual, wanting him to see the luck he had with the young master.

  Wen Ting looked at Xue Yuans name, also with some hesitation. Xue Yuan was young and vigorous, but apart from being arrogant, he seemed to have no bad words or deeds on ordinary days, and his natural talent and diligence made him the top student, far surpassing the second place by a large margin... If he didnt choose Xue Yuan, it would seem unfair, but if he chose Xue Yuan, it would also seem unjust... He was deciding life and death here today, and later they would be separated by vast waters...

  Wen Ting struggled in his heart, flipping through the remaining name list again and again, not knowing how to be more fair. After deliberating for half a day, he finally dotted the vermilion under Xue Yuans name, and directly according to the order of scores, he checked off the top ten names one by one, and finally put away the name list, solemnly placing it aside.

  This roster was taken away by the chief fox official on the second day, and after being copied and sorted out, it was verified and distributed to the fox officials in various places a few days later.

  On the day the list was announced, Yunmian arrived at the agreed mountain top empty space early in the morning, which was where they had previously worshiped the moon.

  Yunmian originally thought he had arrived early, but when he got to the venue, it was already packed with foxes.

  Xiao Yue today seems to be different from other foxes, when she sees Yun Mian, she happily waves her tail at her, indicating: "Here here! I still have a spot here!"

  Yunmian was taken aback for a moment, then hastily ran over to her and sat down beside her.

  Today is the day when all the foxes are gathered in one place, and Xī Yuán and his group are naturally among them. Xī Yuán had been looking around, and upon seeing Yún Miàn, he immediately wanted to go over, like iron being drawn to a magnet, but before he could even stand up, he was promptly pinned down by the vigilant Qīng Yáng and Wén Hé.

  "Never mind, Xiyuan, there are so many people watching today..."

  "The Fox Officer is about to arrive..."

  Qingyang and Wenhe came and went one after another to persuade him, and finally managed to press down Xueyuan with great difficulty.

  Wenhe let out a gentle breath, turned to look at the empty space in front of him, and asked tensely: "Xiyuan, how confident are you?"

  Xī Yuán was a bit nervous at this time?
