Qilin looked at the little fox in his hand and sighed silently, then took it to the nearby stream.
She slowly squatted down and gently placed it in front of her, scooped up clear stream water with her hands and poured it on her, rubbing her dirty but soft fur while pouring.
When the little fox realized what it was doing, it stopped crying and immediately used its legs to protect itself, shouting in shame and anger: "What are you doing!"
"My father and mother once said that 'men and women should not touch each other'. You are a male Qilin! I am a female fox! So you can't bathe me, or you will be molesting me!"
Qilin couldn't help but burst out laughing again. Oh my god! He swore he really didn't like to laugh! He wasn't someone who had a low sense of humor! This was all because this little fox was so funny!
Seeing that he didn't say anything and just kept laughing, the little fox shouted in dissatisfaction: "What are you laughing at?"
"It's so funny to laugh at you." Qilin teased, then raised his hand and flicked its head hard. "You are just a little fox that hasn't even reached adulthood and can't even transform into a human form. Why would I molest you? Do you know what molest means?"
The little fox turned his head away and snorted softly, then responded unhappily, "It's just indecent, what's the point? Anyway, I don't care, you just can't give me a bath!"
Qilin nodded thoughtfully, then said seriously, "I'm just trying to help out of kindness, I don't have any other intentions. Since you're so resistant, forget it!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he waved his hand gently to the side, and the transparent golden light immediately gathered into the shape of a mirror, reflecting everything in front of it, including the dirty little fox.
It stared at itself in the mirror, its eyes widening as it roared in disbelief. Is this it? This pink thing is it?
How could this happen!
How could a pure-blooded white nine-tailed fox become like this?! My mind is broken!
Oh, and the water in that dye vat was pink. Didn't that dye it pink? It should be washable...right?
Qilin watched its sudden change in expression from the side, and couldn't help but curl up the corner of his lips into a playful smirk, deliberately teasing: "Although your limbs are a bit short, I believe you can wash yourself clean."
Little Fox: “…”
What we are saying is, you shouldn't bully people like this, right?
So, is it too late to regret now?
The thought of regretting appeared in my mind for a moment, and then it was thrown out of my mind. Forget it!
I have already said such confident words just now, it would be so embarrassing to go back on my word now!
It also believes that it can succeed... right?
Oh, no matter whether it succeeds or not, if not for the steamed buns, then at least for the pride!
It loudly retorted, "My legs aren't short, I just haven't grown up yet! The female foxes in our fox clan are all long-legged beauties after they transform! I will definitely be one in the future!"
"It's just a simple shower! Who are you looking down on for such a simple thing?! I can clean myself up with just a simple wash!"
Qilin looked at the other person silently, nodded with a smile, as if saying "I'm just watching your performance."
Although bullying children is indeed childish, he personally feels that this is not bullying, it is called making children happy!
You were crying miserably just now, but now you’re not crying anymore, are you?
After the little fox made the harsh words, he began to act, but his imagination was rich and the reality was very skinny!
It now has to admit that its legs are too short to touch anything except its belly and chest.
Moreover, this dye is extremely difficult to wash off. When you wash it, pink water comes out. But even after it is washed until the color does not fade, the hair is still pink.
The only difference is... the color on the chest and stomach is lighter, and the back and other unwashed areas are darker.
It looked at itself in the mirror, neither white nor pink, and its mentality collapsed on the spot. It sniffed hard, then raised its head and cried.
"Wow! I... I can't change back! I'm now the ugliest fox in the entire fox clan! My fellow foxes will definitely laugh at me when they see me!!"
Qilin was completely bewildered. He didn't understand. He didn't comprehend! How could his attitude change so quickly?
She was full of confidence one second, and the next second she gave up and started crying. It was really frustrating!!
So… what should I do now? How can I calm her down? What do ordinary people do when faced with something like this?
He tried hard to recall what he had seen and heard before, and as if to try his luck, he reached out his hand and gently pulled the little fox back from a distance.
While washing the remaining paint off her body with stream water, he comforted her clumsily, "Don't...don't cry. It's not good for girls to cry too much. I heard it makes you ugly."
The little fox looked at him and paused for a moment, then... cried even louder than before. This wasn't comfort at all, it was clearly irony!!
Qilin was so happy when he saw her stop crying!
He felt that he was somewhat strong, and even thought he was quite talented. He could learn to make people happy just by taking a casual look.
But the next second he was slapped hard in the face. Knowing how to coax people... bullshit!
Seeing the little fox crying harder and harder, his head started to hurt more and more, even his temples were throbbing. How could he stop crying? Why was it so hard to make people happy?
It's so hard to make people happy, and it's even harder to make a fox happy. It's even harder! It's too much to ask!
But... no matter how hard it is, you have to comfort it! You can't just watch it cry!
It's really pitiful that he has lost his home. Since you have intervened in this matter, you can't just leave it alone halfway, right?
He half raised his head and sighed deeply, thinking silently in his heart, since it is crying because it is not pretty and is afraid of being laughed at, why not just... try to praise it for its beauty?
Just give it a try, it’s worth a try!
He considered carefully before speaking, "I've seen many Qingqiu foxes before, but never one as beautiful as you. So... could you please stop crying? Wouldn't it be a shame if you became ugly because of crying?"
"Although the paint on your body cannot be completely washed off, you will eventually shed your fur. After you have completely shed your fur, you will become the same as before."
"Really...really?" The little fox confirmed again with tears in his eyes and choked.
"Yeah." Qilin nodded with a smile, "And I never think you are ugly like this, because——"
“Pink is the most beautiful color in the world!”
