Chapter 94
Zhi Yi's voice was very pleasant, but it was completely different from Zhi Yao's soft and mellow voice. Her voice had a sense of coldness and aloofness, a very special mature lady-like voice.
Ling Jue paused when he heard this.
Zhi Yao immediately seized the opportunity, climbed off Ling Jue's back, and then curled up into a ball, rolling into Zhi Yi's embrace.
The moment she rolled into Zhi Yi's embrace, Zhi Yao's tears fell incessantly, like pearls that had come undone.
The embrace of her mother had a very pleasant fragrance and a strong sense of safety, giving Zhi Yao's always drifting heart in this world a harbor to rely on.
Zhi Yi's originally frost-like face revealed a rare tenderness and smile when she came into contact with Zhi Yao's soft fur.
From the moment Zhi Yao stepped into the sickroom, she caught Zhi Yi's scent...
"Yao Yao."
She held the sticky rice dumpling in her hands, "My darling, after so long, you're still so small?"
She gently wiped away Zhi Yao's tears with her fingertip.
She had given birth to five, but only taken Zhi Yao. Because Zhi Yao was the only one who looked very much like a fox, and she was so small when born that if Zhi Yi didn't take her away, Zhi Yao might have died. This made Zhi Yao her most beloved treasure.
The little sticky rice dumpling huddled tightly in Zhi Yi's embrace, her golden eyes warily looking at Ling Jue, "Mother, he... he bullied me!"
She immediately accused Ling Jue, just like before, whenever a fox cub mocked her foolishness, her mother would immediately rush out and teach that fox a lesson!
Since then, every young fox avoided Zhi Yao, and no one dared to bully her anymore.
Ling Jue was dumbfounded on the spot.
He couldn't believe what he had heard.
Mother?! This stinky fox called Zhi Yi "mother"?!
He was struck by lightning, thunderstruck.
Ling Jue abruptly stood up, looking at the trembling fox curled up in Zhi Yi's embrace...
She was so small, looking like she had just been born a few months ago.
But his own sons were already hundreds of years old!
He clenched his fists tightly, surrounded by a murderous aura, his face as dark as if it was about to drip water.
Ling Jue's mind kept flashing with Zhi Yao's face.
No wonder... no wonder he felt Zhi Yao's face was somewhat familiar.
Because... she was actually Zhi Yi's daughter! And she was born to Zhi Yi and someone else!
That sense of betrayal, loss, and sorrow tortured Ling Jue, making him want to kill.
Zhi Yao was shocked and wide-eyed, seeing Ling Jue's imminent rampage, she was even more scared and wanted to burrow into Zhi Yi's clothes.
"Mo... Mother..."
Zhi Yao was almost in tears, did they still have a chance to escape this place alive?
Before she could finish, Ling Jue abruptly snapped, interrupting Zhi Yao, "Shut up! You are not allowed to call her Mother!"
He said, wanting to rush up and throw Zhi Yao out of Zhi Yi's embrace.
But before he could move, Zhi Yi's expression also darkened, "If you dare to touch a single hair on Yao Yao, I'll die right in front of you."
In an instant, Ling Jue's expression completely changed.
Just now he had the look of someone wanting to kill Zhi Yao, but now he was fragile like a piece of easily broken glass.
"Zhi Yi..."
Zhi Yao looked at Ling Jue, dumbfounded. Just now he was a fierce wolf, but now... if she could see his tail and ears, they would definitely be drooping.
Ling Jue looked at the Zhi Yao curled up in Zhi Yi's embrace, both jealous and angry.
He saw how good Zhi Yi's attitude was towards this fox! He had never seen such a tender expression on Zhi Yi's face before!
She was ice-cold towards him, and almost never showed any good expression to his wolf cubs either...
But this stinky fox...
Thinking of this, Ling Jue almost cried.
She really didn't love him.
So, even his children, she wouldn't give them a good face.
But for someone else's child... she would dote on them so much?
Jealousy twisted wildly in Ling Jue's heart, almost swallowing him.
Who was it? Who was it?!
He had been searching for Zhi Yi for so many years, why?! Who got there first?
Zhi Yao looked at the fierce and evil-looking Wolf King turning into a crybaby, seeing the water glistening in his eyes, it was simply unbelievable.
"Mother, he..."
Zhi Yi was too lazy to bother with Ling Jue, she just gently stroked Zhi Yao's smooth fur, saying, "Yao Yao, how did he bully you? Tell Mother, and Mother will get revenge for you."
You keep talking about that, and Zhi Yao won't be sleepy at all!
Zhi Yao immediately ignited her fighting spirit, telling Zhi Yi about how Ling Jue tried to snatch her Jade Pendant the first time they met, and how he almost choked her to death just now.
She even added a little bit of exaggeration.
Really, just a little bit.
After hearing Zhi Yao's words, Zhi Yi finally noticed the Jade Pendant hanging around her neck.
She had been too excited just now and didn't notice it?!
And now, Ling Jue's mind was full of Zhi Yi's words, "Mother will get revenge for you."
She actually wanted to kill him for someone else's child...
His heart was torn apart.
Why? Why did he have to suffer the pain of love? Was it because his life had been too smooth all along?
Haha...
One could say that the two sides were completely in different styles.
If Ling Jue was performing a tragic solo, then Zhi Yao and Zhi Yi's side was a battle of wits and courage.
The moment Zhi Yi saw the Jade Pendant, she suddenly sensed something.
She brought the little sticky rice dumpling close to her nose and carefully sniffed.
After this sniff, Zhi Yi's face immediately turned as dark as Ling Jue's.
"Yao Yao!" Her tone suddenly rose sharply, "Why is there a human's scent on you?!"
And it was a man's!
Zhi Yao was startled.
She had actually forgotten about this.
"I... I..."
Zhi Yao was hesitating, not knowing how to explain.
Mother hated humans the most, Mother would definitely not agree to her being with Pei Chiyao.
The originally depressed Ling Jue perked up immediately, "Oh, so you're actually involved with a human, huh, you bad fox, Zhi Yi, quickly throw her away!"
Unfortunately, no one paid attention to him.
Zhi Yi narrowed her golden eyes, scrutinizing Zhi Yao, "You're now keeping secrets from Mother?"
"No, it's not like that!" Zhi Yao was almost in tears, she didn't know how to say it, the matter was really too long.
Just then, there was a commotion outside the door.
"You can't go in there!"
Pei Chiyao directly knocked down the bodyguard on the ground and strode in.
There were only five sickrooms here, and he had searched everywhere without finding Zhi Yao, this was the last one.
Sure enough, as soon as he entered, Pei Chiyao heard Zhi Yao's voice.
Zhi Yi was also extremely sensitive, "Is that human him?"
