Chapter 203 Picked up on the roadside
Not long after, the car slowly stopped in front of the Gu family villa.
Li Zhi unbuckled her seatbelt and turned to look at Tu Shanyue in the back seat. "We're here. You can change back first."
"Okay, got it." Tu Shanyue responded and immediately turned back into her fox form.
Li Zhi's eyes fell on Li Yanjing and continued, "Son, hold it yourself."
"Okay." Li Yanjing reached out and picked up Tu Shanyue, opened the car door and got out first.
Li Zhi turned around, looked at Xie Tingzhou beside him, and asked, "How about you? Do you want to go in and sit for a while?"
Xie Tingzhou turned off his phone and casually placed it on the center console. "Next time, my mom just sent me a message asking me to go back after I drop you off."
"What's wrong? What happened?" Li Zhi asked.
"It's nothing. My uncle is here as a guest." Xie Tingzhou replied.
Li Zhi nodded, "Okay, I'll go then."
"Okay, go ahead." Xie Tingzhou replied.
Li Zhi retracted her gaze, raised her hand to open the car door and got out, saying to Li Yanjing who was waiting obediently outside the car, "Let's go, son, go home."
Li Yanjing nodded, then followed her into the villa.
......
In the living room.
Gu Yu was lazily leaning on the sofa playing with his mobile phone.
Xianyue was there too, playing with Nai Cha with a cat toy.
Hearing the sound of footsteps approaching from the door, she paused holding the cat toy and said, "Someone is coming."
Gu Yu slid his finger across the screen of his phone, looking at it intently, and said casually, "It must be my mother coming back."
Xianyue had obviously sensed Lizhi's presence, and shook her head, saying firmly, "No, it's Zhizhi who's back."
"Ah?" Gu Yu turned his gaze away from his phone, subconsciously sat up straight, and looked up at her, "My sister is back?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Zhi appeared in the living room.
"Yes, I'm back."
Gu Yu quickly put down the phone, a little surprised, "Sister, I thought you would be home in the evening."
Li Zhi walked slowly to the sofa and sat down, explaining, "I came back early because I finished things quickly. I should have been home at one in the afternoon, but I had dinner outside, ran some errands, and then went to pick up your nephew. That's why I'm here now."
Gu Yu nodded, his eyes then fell on Li Yanjing, and only then did he notice what he was holding in his arms.
He stood up from the sofa, took a closer look, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. "Oh my god, am I seeing right? This is a fox?"
Li Yanjing raised his eyes and looked at him, "Uncle, you are not mistaken, this is a fox, a gift from my mother."
Gu Yu reached out and touched the fox's head, then turned to look at Li Zhi and asked curiously, "Sister, why did you suddenly want to raise a fox?"
Li Zhi made up an excuse, "Oh, I found this on the roadside. It looked quite pitiful and was being bullied by stray dogs, so I adopted it."
Tu Shanyue: “…”
Xianyue, who was sitting next to her, didn't say anything, but instead stared at Tu Shanyue thoughtfully.
Tu Shanyue naturally noticed the look she gave him, her eyes moved slightly, and she sensed that there was something unusual about her aura.
He immediately guessed that the other person should be Xianyue, whom Li Zhi said was more powerful than him, but he didn't expect that she was a girl.
And it seems that she is not like herself, who cultivated from an animal form into a human.
Gu Yu understood, "Is that so? That's indeed quite pitiful, but this little fox is quite pretty."
He paused, then suddenly thought of something. He lowered his eyes to look at Milk Tea, who had jumped onto Li Zhi's legs and was meowing. He added, "Sister, I heard foxes are quite smart. Will it bully Milk Tea when we're not paying attention?"
"Don't worry, that definitely won't happen. This fox is smart and won't bully Milk Tea casually." Li Zhi said.
Gu Yu nodded, "Oh, that's good."
Li Zhi glanced at Tu Shanyue and knew that if they continued talking, with his restless nature, he would probably become restless, so she said, "Let's go back to the room and rest for a while, and come down for dinner."
"Okay, I'll call you when the time comes." Gu Yu said.
Li Zhi hummed, stood up from the sofa, and held Milk Tea on her lap to him, "Let Milk Tea play with you."
Gu Yu took it and said, "OK."
Li Zhi then called Li Yanjing over, walked around the sofa, and headed towards the elevator.
Gu Yu noticed Xianyue leaving with him and asked with concern, "Hey, Sister Xianyue, are you going upstairs to rest too?"
Xianyue paused, turned to look at him, and nodded, "Yeah."
"Oh, okay." Gu Yu said.
Xianyue hummed again, withdrew her gaze, followed Lizhi and her son, and left the living room together.
......
Return to the upstairs room.
Walking last, Xianyue closed the door, glanced at the fox in Li Yanjing's arms, and said to Li Zhi, "Zhizhi, there's something wrong with this fox."
Li Zhi put down the bag she was carrying and turned to look at her, "Huh? What's the problem?"
"He possesses spiritual power. He's no ordinary fox, but a cultivated fox with spiritual intelligence," Xianyue warned. "If you keep him around, it's best to keep an eye on him, in case he approaches you for some other purpose."
"Don't worry, I won't do anything to Master Li. I'm a good person." Tu Shanyue said as she jumped down from Li Yanjing's arms, then transformed herself and returned to human form.
Xianyue was a little surprised when she saw Tu Shanyue suddenly turned into a human. She obviously didn't expect that this fox had already cultivated into a human.
And judging from the tone of his voice, it seems that he is very familiar with Li Zhi.
Xianyue turned to look at Lizhi again, a look of confusion on her face as she asked, "Zhizhi, what on earth is going on?"
"His name is Tu Shanyue, a nine-tailed fox who has cultivated into a human. I went out on this business trip on his behalf. Now he is also my friend. He will live here with us in the future and will be at my disposal." Li Zhi introduced concisely.
She paused and continued, "But to avoid unnecessary trouble, I'll have him transform back into his fox form when in front of others."
"In this case, I can stay here as a pet so I can explain to my parents."
"So that's how it is. I understand." Xianyue said.
Li Zhi's eyelashes twitched, and suddenly something occurred to him. His gaze fell on Tu Shanyue, and he added, "By the way, aren't you going to spar with Xianyue? She's here."
Xianyue tilted her head, "Training?"
"Yeah, he doesn't believe you're better than him." Li Zhi said.
"No, we'll talk about the sparring later." Tu Shanyue raised her hand. "Master Li, you introduced me to her. Shouldn't you introduce her to me as well?"
"Oh, yes, I really would have forgotten if you hadn't told me." Li Zhi said.
