BXBX NOVEL Chapter 147 Soon, Okay?
Dusk promptly arrived. The last remanents of daytime faded and the skies welcomed darker shades of crimson and mulberry as the sun set down. Underneath the floating island, the ocean’s aqua colour intensified into the deepest blue.
After taking a deep breath to calm his nerves, Bai Qingyue opened his eyes again. Recalling that he had to act in accordance with "Snowball’s" character, he forced himself to change his demeanour. Knowing he couldn’t afford to slack off with his pretense.
As shadows filled the cabin, Snowball’s yellow eyes mysteriously shined in the darkness without reflecting light from any other source. As though the golden hues gleamed all on their own.
It was at moments like this when Li Meirong remembered that although Snowball was a fox, he was also something more. Not only an animal, but a spiritual entity that lives and breathes magic.
As if he noticed her scrutiny, the intensity in Snowball’s eyes had dulled into that of a casual look as he made his way to Li Meirong’s side.
With a small tug on the hem of his wife’s robe, Bai Qingyue said, "Master, come on! We need to go to your lessons!"
"Soon, okay? Let’s drink and eat first." Li Meirong sighed, averting her gaze as she made her way to prepare some tea. If she could find a way to delay her meeting with the lunatic Grandmaster, she would.
Bai Qingyue followed at her heels and tugged again. "Not now, master! Come on, let’s go!"
Li Meirong pretended to yawn. "Ah, I think I need to rest for a little while longer..."
"A moment ago, you spoke of how good your rest was! Master, if you don’t go, Snowball will be sad!" Bai Qingyue changed tactics and made a pitiful expression.
’I’ll make you cultivate into becoming a Celestial even if you do not wish to!’ He silently swore.
Relenting to Snowball’s incessant request, Li Meirong groaned as she turned away from the stove’s direction and was pressured into another awkward meeting on the same day. "Alright alright, I’m going now!"
As the pair departed the premises, the hidden Fox Spirit Servants who had been observing the whole scene from the shadows were unable to close their slackened jaws.
"You’ll get used to this, eventually..." Bai Yu said as he stood at their side, still in his "Snowball" disguise. Watching his shameless Lord dragging Her Ladyship away, he wondered which one of them was more troublesome.
’They do fit each other...’
Shaking his head, Bai Yu let go of that thought and decided to pay a visit to Bao Li’s abode, hoping to charm the Head Chef into feeding him more meat buns and hearty soup.
