"Master Fox, over here, over here…..."

Upon seeing Master Fox, Su Qiyuan spoke up, "Did you bring your phone with you, sir?"

As Su Qiyuan spoke, he politely handed over the chicken leg he had in his hand.

"Whimper....."

Ansheng, upon seeing the chicken leg, shook his head, raised a paw to politely push it back, and gestured for Su Qiyuan to follow him.

"Uh?"

Su Qiyuan was taken aback and called out to the folks in the car. Everyone, including the parasitic beast and the woodcutter, followed Master Fox with puzzled expressions.

Under Master Fox's guidance, everyone arrived at Lin Ying's villa.

"Master Fox, are we expecting guests tonight?" Lin Bingyun asked as she saw the group following Master Fox, her eyebrows slightly furrowed.

While speaking, Lin Bingyun considerately handed a fully-charged phone to Master Fox and instructed the maids to rearrange the dining table and prepare a few extra dishes.

Sitting in a dedicated child seat, Ansheng glanced around at everyone present, took a sip of chilled cola to moisten his throat, looked at Su Qiyuan, and started to complain in a crisp childish voice:

"Buddy... Your intention in giving the chicken leg is much appreciated by Master Fox, but couldn't you put it in an insulated bag to keep it warm? Dude, don't you know how awful frozen Orléans roasted whole legs taste?"

"!?"

As Master Fox spoke, the woodcutter and forest ranger in the room were stunned, staring blankly at the talking Master Fox.

Uncle Jinlong's eyes widened as he shakily pointed at Master Fox, letting out a shocked screech:

"He...he spoke! The fox spoke human words!"

"This is crazy! The fox spoke human words!"

There are indeed spirit beasts that can speak human languages, but they're mostly in the ape or bird categories, as well as a few highly specialized spirit beasts in human society.

Su Qiyuan, who was being criticized, looked at Master Fox with a bewildered face.

"Frozen roast chicken leg, is it really...that bad?" Su Qiyuan asked, perplexed.

"Well! Now you know how bad it is," Ansheng quipped, "Doggo can't speak to give you a bad review. And Bai Tao, are you preparing me, Master Fox, to take the graduate entrance exam?"

"Huh?" Bai Tao's mind buzzed as she hadn't recovered from the shock of Master Fox speaking. When Master Fox mentioned her name, she instinctively stood up.

"Trying to fool animals into studying every day, and if I actually pass the graduate entrance exam, do you plan to pay for my tuition?" Ansheng reprimanded Bai Tao's unethical behavior, slamming his paw on the table.

The atmosphere in the room turned oddly peculiar as Master Fox began to rant.

Only the fungal parasitic beast, gazing thoughtfully at the exquisite dish on the plate, asked the maid politely:

"Hello, could you tell me how much these spoon-sized delicacies cost, meow?"

"Huh?"

The maid, either startled by the question or the parasitic beast's manner of speech, recovered due to her professional demeanor and answered the parasitic beast:

"Hello, sir. I don't know the price of the seared scallops within the weight-loss meal, but the purchase price of a set, excluding labor costs, is over four hundred."

"And this one?"

"It's 67 per bottle for the sugarcane cola."

The parasitic beast asked, and the maid dutifully explained the preparation methods and prices of accompanying beverages of the weight-loss meal.

On one side, Master Fox was complaining.

On the other, the fungal parasitic beast had a sharp gaze.

Feng Wenyu felt as if life wasn't worth living; he genuinely wanted to punch Master Fox down and kick the fungal parasitic beast away, then lay them both out with a chokehold.

That look from the parasitic beast clearly suggested discussing a raise.

But expecting us to use Master Fox's lifestyle standards to demand a pay raise is not going to happen, nor should you think about it.

The Lin family has built its fortune for nearly two centuries, wealth imprinted in their veins, and Lin Ying treats Master Fox almost like an heir.

Are you using Master Fox's living standards to ask the Security Bureau for a salary? Are you not afraid of the regulators pulling down your pants in an audit?

"Master Fox...."

Ignoring the parasitic beast's gaze, Feng Wenyu turned his attention to Master Fox:

"Regarding Jiule City's situation, we're currently at a temporary conclusion. The matter of Longevity Club's illegal entry into our territory has been officially handed over to the judiciary...."

"Our purpose for this visit is to say goodbye. We are aware of Master Fox's stance, and seeing your active and diligent attitude in life, if anything comes up or you need any assistance, feel free to contact us."

Feng Wenyu took out his daily-use phone, opened his WeChat QR code, and offered it to Master Fox to scan.

The woodcutters have a dedicated communication tool, but Master Fox has no interest in such matters, so Feng Wenyu naturally wouldn't give him the internal communication tool, just simply added him as a friend and included him in a group chat.

Spirit beasts, as strategic resources, have their most significant value in research projects and archaeology.

They spiritually advanced before humans, allowing people to observe their spiritualization progress and thus used to deduce human changes.

They can also be used in spirit plant cultivation to help humanity better enter the spiritualization era.

Other than this, spirit beasts peacefully living without causing disruptions is the best outcome.

Master Fox has no interest in woodcutting, preferring live streaming to make money and waiting to inherit Lin Ying's assets.

In the simplest sense, Feng Wenyu feels that even if he defected, Master Fox might not flee.

The day Lin Ying can't hold on anymore, hundreds of billions in fixed assets would fall into his lap.

[Threat Level: Low.] This is the assessment given for Master Fox by the woodcutters internally.

After adding each other as friends with Master Fox, the woodcutters didn't stay at Lin Ying's villa, picked up the parasitic beast who was visibly unhappy, and drove away.

If they linger longer, letting the parasitic beast see more of Master Fox's extravagant life....

The parasitic beast might just quit on the spot, run away, and find a rich lady like Master Fox.

After snacking, Master Fox took a car to Hailinglong Club for a speech the next day.

In the following days, Ansheng's life mostly revolved between two points, busy with pet cuteness training sessions.

Until the morning of August 16th.

Ah Qing and Mo Yiqing were packing their things, while Yu Zhenghong and Chen Peipei came to the old house to help out.

"Dad and Mom, I'm leaving Xiaolan with you. Once I visit Momo's house, I'll head back to school."

Early in the morning, Ah Qing went up the mountain to retrieve her summer homework, placing it in a flowerpot.

After lunch, holding a potted plant in one hand and a suitcase in the other, Ah Qing bid farewell to her parents and Xiaolan.

Mo Yiqing couldn't help but smile as he pinched the fox's cheek and said, "Be good! I'll send you postcards and food once I get home, alright?"

Being held in Chen Peipei's arms, with two small legs hanging down and a little belly sticking out, Ansheng pouted.

"Wait? Once I finish my business here, I'll buy a standing ticket over there directly!"

"Pfft! I'll carry the train engine over myself!"
