"Zhong Yan! You can't distinguish right from wrong, you can't tell black from white, you're not worthy of being a ghost hunter at all, you're not worthy!"
"..."
With a slight thought, Zhong Yan waved her hand and stopped what she was doing, allowing the little fox to land on the ground. However, it still looked quite disheveled.
In the end, she was moved by compassion.
“Little fox, I know you want justice, but there is no absolute justice in this world. No matter how much you plead, no one will stand up for you.”
"I..." The little fox was overcome with grief, sobbing uncontrollably. "I only wanted to save the lives of my fox clan, was that wrong? My clansmen were only a little over a year old when they were skinned and dismembered. Even I myself would have been destroyed long ago if I hadn't had that chance!"
"I..." Zhong Yan sighed softly, but she had to admit that the Qin family had indeed gone too far. If they hadn't always prioritized profit over morality, this wouldn't have happened.
Thinking about it, my heart sank slightly.
She was actually a little sad.
Seeing her like this, the little fox rolled its eyes and pleaded with its last bit of strength: "Now that things have come to this, I have no other demands. As long as he swears that he will never make trouble for my fox clan again, I will let him go."
Zhong Yan glanced at Qin Huai, but still agreed. Now that things had come to this, she believed his family wouldn't stand idly by. After all, nothing in this world was more important than her son's life.
The little fox then left with peace of mind, but didn't forget to give her a warning glare before leaving. If Zhong Yan couldn't keep her word, then she could just wait to be punished.
When Qin Huai woke up again, Zhong Yan quickly told him her thoughts: this matter still needed to be discussed with his family by him.
Otherwise, who knows what might have happened!
"Thank you, Zhong Yan."
"It's no trouble at all," Zhong Yan said with a smile. "The timing is perfect, but you have to remember what I told you, otherwise it will be very troublesome."
"Okay." Qin Huai looked at her tenderly, and had no objection whatsoever. He would do whatever the girl asked him to do.
Zhong Yan felt a little awkward under his gaze and subconsciously took a step back: "If you have nothing else, I'll head back now. The teacher is waiting outside, and it's not appropriate for me to be going in and out of the men's dormitory."
Qin Huai's lips twitched slightly. They've already come in and taken care of everything. To talk about whether it's appropriate or not now would be like burying one's head in the sand.
However, Zhong Yan looks quite adorable in this state.
Thinking this, the smile on his lips deepened.
"I……"
"Teacher, it's all taken care of." Zhong Yan coughed lightly and immediately called out. She breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Xiang Rong enter. For some reason, she always felt a little guilty and afraid to face him when she met his clear eyes.
Qin Huai's eyes dimmed slightly, his brows furrowed, and he looked somewhat troubled: "Zhong Yan, why are you being distant with me? We grew up together, childhood sweethearts."
Zhong Yan: "..."
She roughly knew of Qin Huai's feelings for her, but in her past life she hadn't reciprocated them, let alone now. This life was destined to be dedicated to dealing with villains and protecting her family.
As for anything else, I don't want to think about it!
When Xiang Rong saw the two of them interacting, he immediately frowned and said, "What are you doing! I'm telling you, no early dating, no early dating."
