Chapter 116

  Xiao Yue jumped up and down saying: "The chapter update is less than 50%, just wait until midnight and you can read it!" Yunmian didn't know why everyone suddenly looked at her with such respect, under the gaze of many eyes she awkwardly shifted her paws.

  "Is that... Tuantuan?"

  At this time, in the midst of a silent atmosphere, someone suddenly broke the silence and called out tentatively.

  Yunmian subconsciously looked over when he heard Xiaoyue's voice.

  Only a small mountain fox in the group of foxes stretched its neck to look over here, after seeing Yunmian through many people, did it breathe a sigh of relief and run over happily, exclaiming: "It's really you! I was so worried, thinking I wouldn't see you again!"

  "Ahh!"

  Xiao Yue ran over, Yunmian was relieved and didn't hesitate, she jumped up and down on the spot and greeted her.

  Xiao Yue quickly ran to Yunmian's side and the two little foxes rubbed their necks together. After rubbing their necks, Xiao Yue somewhat embarrassedly invited: "Today we're starting our big class, I don't know if you'll come or not, but I still saved a seat for you next to me... If you won't sit there, I'll put my stuff away, do you want to come over?"

  Yunmian was already nervous, and when Xiaoyue said that, she was of course delighted, and quickly nodded her head.

  Xiao Yue kept looking at Yun Mian's expression, seeing that she was acting as usual, and seemed to have calmed down a bit. She quickly gave her directions and happily said: "This way, follow me!"

  They ran to their seats, one after the other, and Yunmeng climbed onto the cushion that Xiaoyue had left for her. She noticed that everyone's gaze was still on her, and nervously leaned in close to Xiaoyue, asking: "......What's going on? Why are they all staring at me?"

  Xiao Yue looked at Yun Mian's expression with some reverence and admiration. She replied, "Because you are different from us, in the future you will be Young Master's wife. And Xi Yuan and the others too... they have already arrived earlier, just behind us."

  As she spoke, Xiaoyue pointed behind her and indicated the location of Xiyuan and the others. She said with a mix of envy and loss: "The four of you will definitely become inner disciples of the Fox Palace in the future. Three years later, you'll be going to the Fox Palace, it's just that for now, you're temporarily staying here to continue your cultivation. Inner disciples are all going to become high-ranking Fox Officials or immortals, with almost no exceptions. Those who go to the Fox Officials basically never come back, so three years later, we might not be able to see each other again. Especially you, as the Young Master's wife and future Fox Master's wife, the difference between us will be even greater. In the future, it's possible that we can only catch a glimpse of each other from afar at the sacrificial ceremony. I think everyone feels... a bit distant from you all."

  It turned out that the fiancée appointed by Master Hu for Young Master was right behind Dongshan Tou, and almost all the foxes were shocked. This news didn't just spread among these little foxes, but almost overnight it spread throughout Qingqiu.

  Regardless of whether they knew Yunmian or not, after the announcement, everyone was shocked and had a heated discussion for a long time. Xiaoyue was even more so, she had a good relationship with Yunmian and was stunned on the spot. In fact, now when she talks to Yunmian, she feels a bit uneasy, not as carefree as before.

  Yunmian was taken aback and subconsciously said: "But I haven't even had a betrothal ceremony with the young master, let alone gotten married, so I'm not the young master's wife yet?"

  "It's all the same."

  Xiao Yue said.

  "Even if it's just a verbal agreement, it's inevitable, you're already different from us."

  She looked around vaguely, but saw that other people's eyes were still falling on her with either curiosity or admiration. She was also confused about how she could be chosen as the young master's fiancée, and being looked at by others like this made her feel somewhat uncomfortable.

  At this time, Xiaoyue asked curiously: "By the way, after you were taken away by Huo Guan this time, did you see Young Master? What kind of person is Young Master? I heard that his personality is very cold, is it really true?"

  Yunmian's train of thought was pulled back, and she slightly stunned, the figure she had seen in the Fox Palace study involuntarily appeared in her mind.

  Even now, she still can't believe that she was actually chosen as the young master's wife, it feels like she is walking on air.

  The person she saw in the study that day could vaguely be seen to be a young man of about her age, seemingly wearing a green robe, but his face was behind a veil and couldn't be made out clearly.

  That person... will be her future husband.

  But... what is husband?

  Yunmian was somewhat bewildered.

  On the other side, due to Xiaoyue's issue, many people around them who were eavesdropping on their conversation looked over curiously.

  Someone who had been watching her for a long time couldn't help but urge: "Come on, what kind of person is the young master?"

  But under the gaze of the crowd, Yunmian shook his head and said: "......I don't know."

  "Don't know?"

  "I didn't see the young master, I just listened to him talking to Mistress Hu through the curtain."

  Yunmian replied honestly. Just thinking about the situation before, she was still a bit dazed: "He didn't see me, and we only exchanged a few words, but his personality seemed very serious..."

  "Ah..."

  Not only Xiaoyue, but also others couldn't help but exclaim, and a vague outline emerged in everyone's mind at the same time.

  "Even his fiancée hasn't seen him before he went through the tribulation!"

  Someone couldn't help but say: "It's really so cold... In the future when you marry him, will you have anything to talk about?"

  Yunmian was taken aback for a moment, and upon hearing him say that, she also felt somewhat worried. She shook her head nervously and said: "Not very clear..."

  Fortunately, the topic didn't last long, just as others started discussing it, Huo Guan walked in from outside. The little foxes in the dojo fell silent, and Yunmian quickly sat up straight, spreading out the paper and ink she had prepared on the tatami mat.

  After the principal fox officer left, Mr. switched back to his usual local fox officer. This time's fox officer was different from before because it was the first day of school restarting classes, he barely said anything and just handed over some plans for next steps before announcing a break soon after.

  As soon as the break time arrived, the dojo immediately became lively.

  Yunmian had been working hard to write her notes in an orderly manner, and as soon as she finished writing, before she could even take a slight breath, she heard a girl's voice next to her excitedly say to others: "Ah... Xiyuan..."

  She didn't quite catch what she said, but vaguely heard the two words "Xi Yuan". She was taken aback and thought of Xi Yuan and the three others who were selected as attendants to the young master, which was somewhat similar to her current situation, so she involuntarily looked back.

  Xiao Yue had previously pointed out the direction of the three foxes to her, and all three of them chose the last mat. Xue Yuan's fur was even brighter than that of a normal red fox, and could be seen at a glance.

  Xiao Yue also seemed to have noticed the whispers around her, and said with some emotion: "Xi Yuan and the others suddenly became very popular, especially Xi Yuan..."

  "Really?"

  Yunmian tilted her head slightly in confusion.

  Xiao Yue said: "Don't you know? Xi Yuan is the first in this assessment, and even people from Qingqiu City can't surpass him. Moreover, his appearance is quite good-looking... On the day we transformed, it seemed like someone saw us. You are already destined to marry Young Master, their situation is different."

  Yunmian nodded as if she understood, but actually didn't. At this moment, she noticed that Xueyuan's sharp gaze suddenly swept towards her. Yunmian couldn't remember past events, but still remembered how they had caused trouble for her in front of the Eastern Immortal Palace, and hastily turned her head back in a fluster.

  Recently, the cultivation in the academy has only been half a day, and the time passes very quickly, much easier than when Zhu Wei was an official.

  Xiao Yue still had somewhere else to go, and she bid farewell with a flick of her tail. Yunmian carefully gathered the things together, neatly arranged them in his mouth, and ran home.

  There was also a little fox accompanying her, several foxes chasing each other from beside her, one of the small gray foxes had a simple cloth bag in its mouth, stuffed with something, and when it quickly passed by Yunmian's side, she didn't notice that a fruit had rolled out.

  Yunmian saw it and quickly put her things aside, picked up the fruit and hurriedly chased after: "Wait, your fruit dropped!"

  "Ah, thank you—"

  That little grey fox originally turned its head wanting to thank him, but seeing Yunmian's appearance, suddenly became a bit flustered.

  Yunmian happily wagged her tail, just about to return the fruit she had picked up to her, when she heard the little gray fox say in a surprised tone: "No, no need to bother, thank you, thank you young master's wife, or...or I'll give this to you to eat instead!"

  Before Cloud Sleep could say another word, Little Gray Fox had already grabbed the package and ran off in a hurry.

  Yunmian was stunned for a moment, then her tail drooped and she picked up the fruit in her mouth. She turned around and picked up her brush pen again, walking towards the fox den with a bit of disappointment. When she arrived at the fox den with these things, she saw another little white fox moving outside the den. Yunmian's eyes lit up instantly, and she put down the things in her mouth, running forward happily and saying: "Can you come out already?"

  Wen Ting had just gone out, he was thinking of taking a look at the place where he fell down to see if he could recall anything. Who would have thought that he happened to see Yun Mian coming back from afar and suddenly rushing in front of him.

  He slightly stunned, unknowingly softened his tone and replied: "Uh, I'll go take a look..."

  "Are you hungry? Do you want to eat something?"

  Yunmian asked with concern and excitement.

  Wen Ting actually didn't have any intention of eating anything, but looking at Yun Mian's bright eyes, she somehow nodded her head.

  Yunmeng happily responded with a "yes" and ran back to pick up her fruit and pen, then jumped back into the cave. She skillfully arranged the fire pit, put the fruit given by the little gray fox on the ground, and also picked out some good food from her previous accumulation to share with Wenhui while eating. While urging Wenhui to eat, she naturally checked his breath and body temperature, confirming that they were much better than yesterday, before letting out a sigh of relief.
