Fu Huaijin stepped into the room with steady, long steps until he stopped by the bed. His slightly lowered gaze lingered on the person on the bed.
She was covered with a thin blanket, which undulated subtly in places.
His gaze lingered there for three minutes, then he slowly bent his knees and squatted down, his gaze level with that serene face. His eyes were gentle and deep, and the sweet fragrance emanating from her filled his nostrils, subtly seeping into his heart.
Perhaps his gaze was too intense, because the person on the bed groaned uncomfortably. Fu Huaijin immediately looked away and shifted his gaze elsewhere, seeing the fox cosplay outfit she had changed out of on the sofa.
He stood up from the bedside, walked to the sofa, and saw that there were only three tails left of what should have been four. As for where the other one was...
Fu Huaijin's gaze returned to that slightly undulating area, his lips pressed tightly together, the answer unspoken.
He didn't stay in the room any longer. After confirming his situation, he turned around and went out. He returned to his room to cleanse himself, took a bath, changed into a simple Zen robe, and went to the private Buddhist hall in the manor.
Inside the Buddhist hall, wisps of incense smoke rose, enveloping the Buddha statue like a veil. He walked to the side, picked up three sticks of incense, lit them, and respectfully bowed three times before inserting them into the sandalwood incense, thus completing his worship.
He took a few steps back, his deep gaze fixed on the large characters on the plaque above: "Cultivate oneself with tranquility, purify the mind and guard one's will," as he reflected.
After a long while, he walked over and sat cross-legged on the cushion, took off the prayer beads from his hands and put them aside, closed his eyes, picked up the wooden fish and tapped it lightly, and began his daily chanting.

Su Yuxi was awakened by the pain. She wanted to turn over and change her position to continue sleeping, but she bumped her head into a hard wall of flesh. Instantly, a burning pain shot through her brain like an electric current.
She screamed in pain, clutching her forehead with both hands, all sleepiness vanished, and she opened her eyes, which were as clear as autumn water, with trembling eyelashes.
The man before me had deep, cold eyes, his pupils as black as a bottomless abyss, radiating an unknown fear that seemed capable of silently devouring everything in front of him.
"You're awake." Fu Huaijin gently closed his eyes, and when he looked up again, his eyes had returned to their usual cold and indifferent state.
Su Yuxi was unaware that the two were in close proximity, her mind was focused on her tail.
Confirming that her tail was still hidden under the covers, she barely managed to remain calm, chuckled twice, and dared not raise her voice too much in her accusatory tone: "You...you, how did you end up on my bed again?"
In a single glance, she noticed the problem and subtly moved back, trying to get as far away from him as possible.
No sooner had she made a move than the man pulled her back, his arm around her waist tightening suddenly, holding her close in his embrace.
A deep, husky male voice sounded from above: "It's six o'clock now..."
A period of time that even he himself could not resist.
Su Yuxi cursed her bad luck inwardly. She struggled a little but to no avail. She could only resign herself to resting her head on his rock-solid chest. A special scent of fragrant wood lingered around her nose. It seemed that he had just returned from burning incense.
"Um, could you please stop hugging me?" The two were too close, and even through their clothes, they could feel the man's body temperature rising rapidly, his muscles tense like stone. Never before had they felt the changes in his body so clearly as they had now.
She dared not move or struggle, for fear that he might get angry and pull off her blanket, revealing her true nature.
But this position was really uncomfortable. With her arms hanging up, she hesitated to put them down. Finally, she couldn't bear it anymore, and Su Yuxi slowly lowered her hands, letting them rest on her narrow waist.
Just by lightly applying it, you can clearly feel the full and smooth muscle lines below the waist, the firm abdominal muscles, one, two, three, four... many muscles, hmm... this indented area looks like the V-line, I remember a male model had it too...
Just as she was lost in thought, the man above her let out a painful groan, shifted back a couple of times, and pulled away from that tactless little hand.
Su Yuxi paused, looked up at the man, her empty head slightly puzzled. Her curious gaze fell on his sharp jawline, then slowly slid down to his constantly moving Adam's apple.
Here… She raised her empty little hand, her slender fingers slowly reaching upwards. Just as they were about to touch, a large hand suddenly gripped her wrist, a hoarse voice carrying a hint of pressure: “Don’t move.”
Su Yuxi really didn't dare to move. Seeing his flushed cheeks, she realized something and quickly lowered her head to avoid his burning warning gaze.
Fortunately, this situation only lasted for about ten minutes before Fu Huaijin returned to normal.
This time, he didn't linger for a moment, nor did he leave a single word. He got up and hurriedly left the room.
The soft sound of the door closing echoed in Su Yuxi's ears. She held her breath and didn't dare to get up immediately. She lay on the bed for a while to make sure the man outside wouldn't turn back before slowly getting up.
The tail, which had been hidden under the blanket, also emerged from the covers and showed no sign of retracting.
She sighed softly, her gaze inadvertently sweeping across a corner of the room where several rows of clothes were displayed, which at first glance looked quite like a small fashion showroom.
The room was covered with all sorts of exquisite fox cosplay costumes. Her eyes lit up, and she immediately jumped off the bed and skipped over to them.
These are much more exquisite than the ones she bought online on short notice, both in terms of style and stitching. You can feel the quality just by touching them with your fingertips. They are worlds apart from the previous set.
And then there were those tails. She picked one up and gently stroked it in her hand, then touched the one behind her. Although there were still differences, it was much better than the previous ones.
Only Fu Huaijin could collect so much at such a fast pace.
What's wrong with this man? Why did he bring her so many clothes?
Never mind, it will at least solve the immediate problem.
She picked out a set for herself and put it on, secretly praising it to herself. Sure enough, good stuff is comfortable to wear. Even the fake tail was as light as a feather, without any sense of burden. If she shook it unintentionally, the other tails would sway gently, so she didn't have to worry about anyone noticing anything unusual.
Su Yuxi chuckled twice, put on her new clothes, and went outside, but Fu Huaijin was nowhere to be seen.
However, the Lu family villa, which she stole, is now brewing a silent storm.
All the security personnel were gathered at the entrance of the Lu family's residence. Everyone was terrified, heads bowed, too scared to even breathe.
This villa area is inhabited by prominent figures and has an extremely high level of security. However, in just one night, the Lu family's villa lost nearly hundreds of millions of yuan worth of jewelry without anyone's knowledge. This is an extremely dangerous event for the entire villa area.
