Putting away the understanding look just now, Wenren Qiqi turned into a cold, ruthless and desperate expression.

He took out his cell phone, operated a few times on the page, and then showed it to Wenren Baiyi.

On the phone screen, there was a video made from the memory fragments that Wenren Qiqi had just shown.

But compared to the bland memory, the video obviously has added picture rendering and magnified details.

All the tenderness hidden between Wenren Baiyi's eyebrows was completely stripped away.

Wenren Baiyi never imagined that one day her own memory would become the protagonist of a video and be artificially magnified frame by frame.

The corner of his eye twitched slightly, and Wenren Baiyi looked at Wenren Qiqi with some speechlessness in his eyes.

Wenren Qiqi faced her burning gaze and said,

"I just want an answer. If you won't tell me, then I can only post this video directly on the spiritual forum."

Thinking about Xuxu's idea, she deliberately said in a rogue tone,

"I believe that the people of Xuanmen and the demon clan are eager to see the gentle side of Lord Fox King in private."

Wenren Baiyi: ...

Wenren Qiqi has never been a well-behaved child since childhood, and often does things that are unconventional, such as joining the Xuanmen clan as a half-demon, which is considered a rebellious experience for the entire demon clan.

Wenren Baiyi was not surprised that she would resort to trickery.

I just didn't expect her methods to be so "shameless".

How could she think of spreading her parents’ post-wedding video as gossip?

No, maybe it wasn't her who came up with this trick, but the person who showed her this memory.

"Do you really think you can release such a video without my permission?"

Wenren Baiyi asked her back, her face still indifferent and casual. Wenren Qiqi was about to speak, but was interrupted by her coldly.

"Even if you made a backup in advance and successfully sent it out, and let the people from Xuanmen and the demon clan see the video, it wouldn't hurt me at all."

Wenren Qiqi only asked her, "Don't you want your Fox King's face anymore?"

Wenren Baiyi smiled, but there was inexplicably a hint of unclear emotion in her smile.

"Do you think you can sit on the throne of the Fox King if you want to save face?"

If she could be threatened by such a small trick, she wouldn't be the Fox King.

Wenren Qiqi just looked at her. She knew, of course, that such tricks could not threaten her at all.

Not only she knew it, Xuxu also knew it.

So, they have a third step.

Without any expectation, Wenren Qiqi suddenly rushed towards where Wenren Baiyi was.

Wenren Baiyi narrowed his eyes slightly, thinking that she was going to use force. Just as he was about to raise his hand, a head suddenly hit his arms.

The waist was hugged.

But the head was buried straight in her arms, without any attack, but instead as an attachment that had not been there for many years.

She held her like that, calling her in a voice that sounded aggrieved and dependent,

"Mother……"

Wenren Baiyi's body stiffened slightly.

Since his death, she had forgotten how long it had been since Qi Qi hugged her so intimately, or even called her mother in such a voice.

Her daughter had become a stranger to her a long time ago.

This is due to Qiqi's resentment towards her, but also her own reasons.

It has been so long that Wenren Baiyi can no longer tell the difference.

Wenren Qiqi just buried himself in her arms without moving.

If it were in the past, she would never have done such a thing to Wenren Baiyi.

Because in her opinion, if someone is not loved, no matter how much he or she acts like a spoiled brat, he or she will not get any sympathy from her.

So she gave up using this method to get attention many years ago.

However, she saw a different mother in Xuxu.

Xuxu said that she might love her.

So she also wanted to take a gamble.

Bet she won't be indifferent to her.

……

A strange yet familiar warm scent lingered at the tip of his nose. Wen Ren Qiqi went from being stiff at first, to being indifferent, and then to calming down again.

Just when she thought that her initiative to approach him had failed, suddenly, a hand gently rested on her shoulder.

Following closely behind, the familiar aura of the Nine-Tailed Fox surrounded him.

Wenren Baiyi had nine tails appearing behind her at some point, and at this moment, the nine tails moved forward from behind her, wrapping her child in it, just like Wenren Qiqi hugged Xuxu before.

A silent sigh seemed to come from above his head. When Wenren Qiqi realized that he was wrapped by his mother's fox tail, his nose suddenly felt sore and tears fell uncontrollably again.

If it was just a test at the beginning, now she was completely immersed in such warmth.

Then, she allowed the huge grievance to completely overwhelm her.

She felt wronged.

But she didn't know why she felt wronged.

Her arms subconsciously hugged the person tightly, and at this moment, she seemed to become a child again.

"Mother... wuwu... mother..."

Wenren Baiyi's heartbeat was disordered for a moment because of her unbridled crying.

The indifferent and casual shell of these years finally began to crack because of her calling him mother.

After a long time, Wenren Baiyi took her to the back of his house.

He used his tail to wipe the tears from her face, and then placed an exquisite box in her arms.

Wenren Qiqi sniffed and opened the box.

But what was placed inside were actually several ancient books.

On the book was the familiar scent of ink, and... a very faint, long-lost scent.

"This is the storybook your father wrote."

The contents of this box are all unique copies of his bound manuscripts.

When Wenren Qiqi was brought back to the clan, she asked about it, but Wenren Baiyi told her that all those things had been burned.

"Every time I looked through it over the years, I would use magic to restore it to its original state. However, after repeating this over and over again, the aura belonging to that person has become very faint."

When Wenren Baiyi said this, the tenderness in her eyes seemed to reappear that she had only seen in her memory.

Wenren Qiqi stared blankly at the carefully preserved script in her arms, then looked at Wenren Baiyi in front of her, and didn't know what to say for a moment.

After a long while, he spoke with difficulty.

"So, you are with him because you like him."

Her birth was also the result of love.

Wenren Baiyi sat next to her, as if returning to his original self, casual and lazy, but with a bit more depth.

"At first, I really just needed a human man to help me successfully give birth to a half-demon child with my blood."

This was the tribe's decision, and even as the Fox King, she could not refuse.

She appeared in that mountain to choose a suitable father for her offspring.

He Zhichong was not among her choices.

Even if she wanted to marry a human, she didn't like such a weak man.

However, that man relied on her life-saving grace and insisted on marrying her.

Between her and him, it’s better to say that—

It was his persistence that made her choose him.
