Chapter 4 How can a fox bully me? Angry.

I was wandering around the city alone, feeling lost and without a single friend.

In the past, Mao Yanyan always accompanied me, allowing me to bravely try anything.

But...oh, never mind.

So why be so lost and dejected? With a fate like mine, I should understand the saying, "Loneliness is the norm in life."

I tried to cheer myself up and planned to touch some furry creatures to put myself in a better mood.

If you meet some good cats, give them cat strips.

Met a bad cat and got caught.

I had to get a rabies shot...

it hurts.

But Mao Yanyan didn’t see it, or even if she did, she didn’t care about me.

sad.

I also started to get angry.

The admission results are out, and I’m going to Shanghai.

It's a bit far from home, and Mao Yanyan probably won't care about me. It's my first time being so far away from home, and I'm scared, but I have to go through this.

Before that, maybe I can go to a place relatively close by to familiarize myself with the process of traveling far away.

It just so happened that a boy from the next class sent me a message - I forgot when I added him as my friend, and I didn't have much interaction with him normally.

He asked me where I was going to college, and then found out that he and I were both going to Shanghai!

If they were just traveling together...it shouldn't bring him any bad luck, right?

So I chatted with him more and felt a lot more relaxed.

When he learned that I wanted to go to Erbin to touch foxes, he was also very interested and asked me if I wanted to call a few friends to go with me.

"This...this is not good, right?" I was a little nervous. No one has ever invited me to a group trip, and I was also afraid that my fate would bring them bad luck and make them encounter unpleasant things.

"What's wrong with that? I'll be in charge of asking everyone if they want to go to Erbin together. Just remember to join in the discussion and hang out together!"

The boy was very friendly. Maybe he wasn't familiar with me, so he didn't know about the rumors that I would bring bad luck to people around me?

A week later, six of us, including myself, planned to visit Erbin. Even though there were girls, I booked a separate room just to be safe. And to thank everyone for taking me on a trip, I generously paid for their hotel stays for the next few days.

I excitedly packed a simple suitcase and, following the boy's advice, made full preparations for my first long trip.

I thought Mao Yanyan was not at home, but when I was dragging my suitcase out, he suddenly appeared.

"where did you go?"

"Um...let's go to Erbin and hang out with everyone."

"Yeah." Mao Yanyan didn't say much. She seemed to have no patience with me and turned around and left.

I felt really bad, and the unfamiliarity with him dampened my mood for going out with my friends for the first time. But I quickly cheered up and tried to go out with a smile on my face to leave a good impression on everyone I was traveling with.

What I didn’t know was that Mao Yanyan stayed in the room sulking until she heard me pulling my suitcase and taking a taxi away, and she didn’t even wait for my apology.

I went to Erbin, the first time!

It felt strange that I hadn't brought bad luck to anyone, just like I usually do when I'm with Mao Yanyan! Could it be that now that I'm an adult, my fate as a curse to others won't be so dangerous?

Among those traveling with me, a male classmate exclaimed in surprise, "Zhao Ning, it turns out the rumors were false! We don't even know who started them, but whenever someone gets unlucky or loses something, they say it's because of contact with you. Even my relatives in the village told me to avoid you... You're such a nice person, beautiful, and smart... I'm sorry, these rumors really hurt me!"

"Haha...it's okay, it's okay..." I accepted his apology a little awkwardly. This was the first time someone apologized to me for this...

Speaking of which, I have to thank the boy who first suggested inviting me out to play!

So, after everyone had dinner, when the sunset appeared in the sky and the boy and I were walking and talking, I didn’t think much about it.

I just think he is a really friendly and brave boy.

Until - I don't know where the others went, and he and I were the only ones standing close to each other on the beautiful art street, I seemed to feel a chill somewhere.

My cell phone suddenly rang, breaking the delicate atmosphere between me and the boy.

It’s Mao Yanyan’s call.

My feeling immediately changed from being overwhelmed by the boy to a little excitement and surprise: "Hello?"

There was silence on the other end of the line for a few seconds, only the whistling of the wind and his breathing could be heard. I had no idea what he was doing.

"What's wrong?" I asked dryly to the fox who suddenly called me.

"Come back quickly." His tone was stiff.

"Why?"

"No reason."

"But...we don't plan to be back for another two days."

"Hmph." He seemed very unhappy and hung up the phone directly.

It made me confused and a little unhappy!

The boy asked me what was wrong, but I didn't want to answer. This was a family matter between Mao Yanyan and me, and it was not easy to tell outsiders. After that, the boy's concern for me was also because I was in a bad mood, so I just brushed it off.

One night, a guy fell on the steps of the hotel and nearly knocked out a tooth. I immediately became nervous and didn't dare to help him. Fortunately, we were all walking together and a guy from the same group helped him up.

At this time, everyone silently recalled the rumor about me.

Because... that was the longest time a boy had spent alone with me, and then he got into trouble.

I can't explain this clearly, it seems to be my problem...

However, no one else encountered any bad luck afterwards, so I secretly breathed a sigh of relief and decided to go shopping alone.

I touched the tail of the fat white fox I had been longing for. The feel... was definitely different from the feel of the old fox's tail I had imagined, and it did not fill the emptiness in my heart.

Woo woo woo, when can I touch Mao Yanyan's big tail?

miss.

Alas, this fat white fox's business skills are not up to standard. He even refused to let me touch him or hold him obediently! How can a fox bully me?

gas.

The boy confessed to me the day before I left Erbin.

But I refused and told him clearly that I would really bring bad luck to the people around me.

He and I don't know each other well enough, and I don't want such a friendly boy to risk his life to test whether the power of my destiny is still there.

Since I was a child, my grandmother has been using various methods to improve my fate. She performed many rituals and asked many people for help, but until she passed away, she did not find a way to completely change my fate.

But she was afraid that I would be lonely, so she asked Mao Yanyan, who was "picked up" by me at home by chance and brought into this life, to accompany me and be my only friend.

Mao Yanyan is not a person, so she is not afraid of being defeated by me. But for others, it is not necessarily the same.

The boy thinks I am superstitious, and I don’t want to explain too much to him.

After all, I really do have a vixen in my house.

If it weren’t for the rituals I performed since I was a child, I would have even been seeing all kinds of ghostly things and been taken away by them early.

This is my personal experience, and I am indeed not the same type of person as boys.

I only have Mao Yanyan.

Hmm... suddenly a question came to my mind. Mao Yanyan is a vixen. Will he secretly follow me when I go away from home?
