Chapter 59
As Tang Tang was about to speak, Zhi Yao cut her off, saying, "Don't worry, your mother is fine and safe here."
Zhi Yao suddenly reached out her hand towards Tang Tang, "Let me see your hand, please?"
She had previously hurt Tang Tang's hand, and now that she knew the truth, Zhi Yao felt extremely regretful.
Tang Tang hesitated for a long time before finally not extending her hand, only saying, "I'm fine, you don't need to look."
But it was Xiao Nuan, whose eyes were as clear as water, who said, "You should look, you should look, Fox Sister, Tang Tang has so many wounds, please help her take a look!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Xiao Nuan pulled Tang Tang in front of Zhi Yao.
Zhi Yao took the opportunity to grab Tang Tang's hand and roll up her sleeve, unsurprisingly revealing numerous scars, looking like claw marks or bruises from being hit.
Xiao Nuan sniffled sadly, "It's all my fault, I made Tang Tang get hurt..."
These wounds were inflicted over many years as the Gu family sought out certain capable and extraordinary individuals. Because Tang Tang's mother carried such heavy resentment, it was difficult for her and her daughter to leave this world, leading to Tang Tang's injuries as well.
Although they couldn't completely drive away the mother and daughter, they still had ways to harm them.
Most of the wounds were borne by Tang Tang alone.
Seeing this, Zhi Yao felt very sympathetic, "Tang Tang, come with me."
"But Xiao Nuan..."
"Don't worry, your mother can't get out now," she understood Tang Tang's concern. "Let Xiao Nuan live a normal life, okay?"
As soon as she finished speaking, without considering Tang Tang's thoughts, Zhi Yao gently tapped her forehead, and in the next second, Tang Tang also disappeared from there.
She felt herself enveloped in a warm ocean, and the wounds all over her body stopped hurting, as if being healed by something.
At the moment Tang Tang and Xiao Nuan separated, Xiao Nuan suddenly fainted.
...
After Zhi Yao left the room, the Gu family members immediately surrounded her, asking in confusion, "What happened to Xiao Nuan?"
"Is Xiao Nuan okay?"
Zhi Yao nodded, "She should return to normal once she wakes up."
She disliked the Gu family and didn't want to say much to them, so she quickly walked out.
As soon as she went out, she saw Pei Chiyao standing at the entrance.
One of his hands was in his coat pocket, and the other held a cup of milk tea.
The little girl's slightly gloomy mood immediately soared when she saw the milk tea in Pei Chiyao's hand.
She hurried over to Pei Chiyao, who had already opened his arms to embrace her and pick her up.
However, Zhi Yao ignored his gesture and snatched the milk tea from Pei Chiyao's hand.
Pei Chiyao: "..."
The little girl had just taken a sip of the milk tea when her face scrunched up in disgust, "Yuck, what is this stuff? It tastes awful."
It turned out that it wasn't the milk tea Pei Chiyao had prepared for Zhi Yao, but the coffee he had bought for himself.
Pei Chiyao chuckled lightly, "That's your punishment for being greedy."
The little girl frowned, her lips slightly pouting, looking unhappy.
Pei Chiyao bent down and picked Zhi Yao up as if she were his daughter. "Don't make that face, I'll take you somewhere tonight."
The bitter taste still lingered in Zhi Yao's mouth, and she couldn't cheer up.
After all, she hated bitter flavors the most.
Zhi Yao sat on Pei Chiyao's arm, tightly hugging his neck with both hands, resting her head on his shoulder and rubbing back and forth like a petulant little animal.
He smiled indulgently, raising his other hand to gently pinch Zhi Yao's nose, "Milk tea isn't good for you, shall we drink something else?"
Drink something else?
Zhi Yao abruptly raised her head, eyes sparkling, "Sweet?"
"Yes."
Zhi Yao's eyes lit up, "I want it now! My mouth is so bitter, all because you tricked me."
As she said this, Zhi Yao was being completely unreasonable.
It wasn't Pei Chiyao who gave it to her; she had snatched it and drank it herself.
Now she was blaming everything on Pei Chiyao.
Pei Chiyao didn't argue with the little fox cub. He placed Zhi Yao in the passenger seat and got into the driver's seat himself.
The moment he leaned over to fasten Zhi Yao's seatbelt, he suddenly lunged forward, his hand firmly holding the back of her head as he kissed her lips.
The kiss was filled with overwhelming invasion and possessiveness, almost suffocating Zhi Yao.
She was about to push him away when a faint sweet milky flavor filled her mouth.
A milk candy had been fed into her.
Pei Chiyao finally released her, "Still crying?"
Zhi Yao crunched the candy between her teeth, quickly shaking her head, "Not bitter anymore!"
She ate the candy until it was gone, savoring every bit. As they waited for the traffic light to change, she tugged at Pei Chiyao's sleeve, and when he looked over, Zhi Yao pointed at her lips.
The meaning was clear.
She wanted more.
Pei Chiyao's breath caught in his throat, and he clenched his teeth.
What a temptress.
Seeing that Pei Chiyao ignored her, Zhi Yao thought he didn't understand, so she tilted her head, "Pei Chiyao, I want more candy, give me another one quickly."
"There are no more."
They were in the car, so she couldn't make a fuss.
He forced himself to look away.
Zhi Yao didn't believe him.
Pei Chiyao's mouth must still have some!
She glanced at the traffic light, which still had 99 seconds left, then suddenly pounced on him, kissing Pei Chiyao. She even deftly slipped her tongue in, exploring every possible hiding place for candy.
Pei Chiyao's eyes widened in surprise.
The kiss lasted a long time until the honking horns behind them became incessant, only then did Pei Chiyao come to his senses, and Zhi Yao released him.
She glared at Pei Chiyao, "There really are no more."
She licked her lips, still unsatisfied.
Pei Chiyao took a deep breath and looked away.
He had never seen other spirits, but his own...truly lived up to being a fox spirit.
Too good at seducing.
He stepped on the gas pedal, and the car instantly shot forward like an arrow released from a bow.
The cool breeze blowing in from the window slightly calmed Pei Chiyao's anger.
The car stopped at a private restaurant, and he brought Zhi Yao inside.
As soon as they entered, Zhi Yao realized there was more than meets the eye.
This was not merely a restaurant.
It had several areas, including an entertainment zone, a lounge, and a dining area...
It was like a small shopping mall.
But none of that mattered to Zhi Yao.
Throughout the journey, she had been searching through Pei Chiyao's pockets, trying to find that incredibly delicious candy again.
"Really none left?"
The little girl had thoroughly emptied Pei Chiyao's pockets, finding nothing but keys and his phone.
She looked at Pei Chiyao with a pitiful expression, her eyes glistening.
Pei Chiyao sighed helplessly, "Open your mouth."
