Chapter 794 Nurturing can alleviate worries
Dou Hong's expression changed drastically. He reached out to grab it immediately, but it was too late.
"This is..." Ye Wanxi looked at the thing that had landed in her palm, somewhat puzzled, "A tuft of hair?"
The others also gathered around, staring at the white fur in Ye Wanxi's hand, and asked in confusion, "What is this fur from? Is it from a cat?"
Li Guangjun frowned: "It shouldn't be, right? Cat fur isn't that long, is it?"
Zhao Yun'er thought so too. After staring at the fur for a while, she said, "Dogs shouldn't have such white fur, right? Could it be a wolf?"
Li Guangjun chuckled and tapped her head: "Dogs don't have such white fur, do wolves? Besides, this fur looks very soft, while wolf fur is a bit coarser and stiffer, so it shouldn't be."
Jun Wuduan followed behind Qi Yao, glanced at the tuft of white fur, and said with a slight glint in his eyes, "It looks a bit like fox fur to me."
"fox?"
Everyone looked surprised, then realized, "It does look a bit like fox fur."
Qi Yao didn't join in the discussion, but instead focused her attention on Ye Wanxi: "What's wrong? Is there something wrong with this fur?"
"This fur doesn't seem to be the fur of ordinary small animals." Ye Wanxi said, then remembered what Feng Tianyu had said when he mentioned this thing earlier, and quickly looked up at him for a question.
Feng Tianyu smiled slightly and whispered the answer: "This is Fei Fei's fur."
Zhao Yun'er was a little confused: "Feifei? Pig hair?"
"Pfft..." As soon as Zhao Yun'er said this, Qi Yao couldn't help but laugh out loud. "It's not a pig, it's a mythical beast from ancient legends. It's recorded in the Zhongshan Jing chapter of the Classic of Mountains and Seas: 'There is a beast that looks like a fox, with a white tail and a mane, named Fei Fei. Keeping it can relieve worries.' It looks a lot like a fox, with a big white tail and a mane. Keeping it can relieve worries and bring joy."
"Isn't that similar to raising cats, dogs, or other pets?" Zhao Yun'er didn't know what this "Feifei" was, but after hearing Qi Yao's description, the first thing that came to her mind was cats and dogs.
For people who love cats and dogs, isn't cuddling with cats and dogs a way to relieve worries and bring joy?
Qi Yao didn't refute it. Fei Fei was indeed a high-level spirit pet at that time. It was rumored that a concubine of a great country in the north kept one. This concubine relied on her pet to become the most favored concubine in the palace. She not only had the emperor's heart firmly in her grasp, but also made everyone in the harem obedient to her. There was never even a little bit of palace intrigue. It could be said that she relied on her spirit pet to cheat and had the script of a Mary Sue heroine who was loved by everyone.
After confirming what Dou Hong was carrying, everyone finally realized what had happened.
So this is what Qi Yao mentioned before that made him unconsciously develop feelings for her!
The mythical beast Feifei is not good at fighting or defending; its only merit is that it can make people forget their worries.
Forget your worries and troubles, and you'll naturally be happy. How could someone who can make others happy not be popular?
With the addition of the wispy mane, Dou Hong essentially gained a positive impression through the prop, and coupled with his natural social skills and adeptness at disguise, he was truly a master of deception.
If Zhao Yun'er hadn't been so vigilant, and if Ye Wanxi and the others hadn't been unaffected by the white hair's effect, they might have actually been able to get what they wanted.
Dou Hong was stunned for a moment when he saw the treasure he was holding in his hand float to Ye Wanxi's hand. He immediately rushed over to snatch it, but Ye Wanxi nimbly dodged him.
"Give me back my things!"
Dou Hong was now truly anxious. No one knew the benefits of this thing better than him. The effects of this bristle not only affected those around him but also those who wore it.
Having lost his mane, Dou Hong could no longer suppress his true nature. His eyes turned bloodshot, and he looked like he wanted to tear Ye Wanxi apart on the spot.
Ye Wanxi wasn't afraid of him. She looked at the white fur in her palm and frowned, saying, "This fur is dull and lifeless. If it's not because you've worn it for too long and its effectiveness has greatly diminished, then the spirit beast itself is weak, and even its mane has lost its spiritual energy. Who gave you this? Where is the spirit beast now? What did you do to it?"
Despite Ye Wanxi's questioning, Dou Hong's expression remained unchanged, his gaze fixed greedily on the mane in her hand: "If I tell you, you'll give it back to me?"
“Of course…” Ye Wanxi looked at Dou Hong’s suddenly bright eyes, and took a two-second deep breath with a mischievous grin, “Impossible.”
Should we give this back to him so he can continue deceiving others? But after today, he probably won't even have the chance to deceive anyone.
Dou Hong's expression stiffened slightly, and the anger in his eyes became more and more obvious.
He lunged at Ye Wanxi again, but before he could get close, Feng Tianyu pinned him to the ground, leaving him only able to shout in impotent rage, "No, you can't do this! It's mine, it's mine!"
Ye Wanxi glanced at him, not thinking she could get anything out of him, so she simply left the matter to the Zhao family to handle.
"The curse on Miss Zhao has been removed, and the items he was carrying have been taken away. It is highly unlikely that he will affect Miss Zhao in the future. Miss Zhao is the victim in this matter, and it is up to you to decide what to do next."
“This…” Mr. and Mrs. Zhao exchanged a glance, looking somewhat embarrassed.
They were certainly angry that their daughter had been deceived and harmed, but this matter was beyond reason. They wanted Dou Hong to be punished by law, but if they reported it to the police, wouldn't they be treated like fools or lunatics?
Seemingly sensing their thoughts, Ye Wanxi smiled and said, "You two can rest assured. There have been many similar incidents to your family lately. If you want to teach him a lesson, just call the police and have someone come over. Someone will naturally know how to convict him."
Mr. and Mrs. Zhao were stunned. They felt that they were a bit out of touch with the times. Was the police really this advanced in upholding justice for people now?
"Furthermore, you two should not forget that besides Ms. Zhao, there is another victim. I believe that the other party's family must also want to seek justice for their deceased loved one."
Ye Wanxi was referring to the pitiful girl who had been targeted by Dou Hong before Zhao Zhenzhen. Li Guangjun's eyes narrowed slightly, and he quickly stated, "I will have someone contact the victim's family as soon as possible, but if the incident occurred a long time ago, the evidence may be..."
Feng Tianyu immediately found a rope and tied Dou Hong up. Hearing Li Guangjun's words, he timely reminded him: "A person like him seems gentle but is actually extreme, seems humble but is actually arrogant. His father was unwilling to let go of his mother after she was killed, and carried her ashes with him. If he really inherited his father's perversion, then his coercion and humiliation of that girl is very likely not to stop because of her death."
