The Pretty Fox and the Lone Wolf

Before Lu Geshi could figure out the answer to "What else can a demon be sold for", Fang Yousheng had already led him to the east of the city on a horse.

The population is gradually thinning out, and the deeper you go, the more dilapidated the surrounding houses become.The grass and trees grow unkempt, and the road is bumpy. From time to time, small insects that Lu Geshi can't name will fly to him, trying to bite him, but Fang Yousheng drives them away or crushes them to death.

All the people on the side of the road were pale and thin, and looked at the two with jealousy, envy, and occasionally hostility and hatred.

According to Lu Geshi's request, Fang Yousheng tied the horse to the nearest racecourse, and then the two walked across the path on foot.

"In fact, every household here is very poor, and you can tell." Lu Geshi said, "But people in this area can still work. In the past, there are some widows or families with sick men who basically rely on begging for a living."

The road that Lu Geshi took Fang Yousheng next was extremely remote, and no outsider appeared again. Fang Yousheng asked him, and Lu Geshi replied: "It should have come at night. If others see us, we will only go to her." Home, won’t her life be even more difficult in the future? But my ability is limited, and I can’t help so many people—besides, not everyone is worth helping.”

"You are very smart at this time." Fang Yousheng said, "Then why only go to her house?"

"When I passed by here, my feet were cut and I couldn't walk. She took me in and even gave me half a piece of cake." Lu Geshi said, "The day before I left, her son Just a little cough, so I have been worried."

They walked through a forest and came to the back of a row of earthen houses, and heard a woman crying from a distance.Lu Geshi led Fang Yousheng to follow the sound and found the family.

Lu Geshi lay down by the window, and whispered to the crying woman: "Sister Xiaowen."

The woman is very thin, but her face is pretty and she doesn't look old.There was no resentment on her face, it was just that she was exhausted.

Hearing the sound, she was startled, and looked out the window in surprise. Seeing the handsome Fang Yousheng behind her, she asked Lu Geshi with some trepidation, "Who is this?"

"I'm here to help you." Lu Geshi turned over and entered the room, and asked, "Sister, where is Huanxi?"

The room was small, so Fang Yousheng didn't turn inside.The woman turned around and picked up a child with a flushed face, she was about to cry again: "I'm afraid it won't work."

Lu Geshi looked at Fang Yousheng eagerly.Fang Yousheng nodded to him: "We can only take the child to the city alone to seek medical treatment, otherwise there will be too much noise."

The woman couldn't believe it, she wiped the tears from her face: "If, if the adults can help the grassroots..."

"You don't need to talk about this." Fang Yousheng said, "But you have to be clear about one thing. Just because I took your child to seek medical treatment, it doesn't mean that he will survive."

"Yes, yes..." The woman nodded again and again, her tears seemed to be shedding no matter what, "It's good to have a try."

"It probably won't be cured overnight, and he may need to stay in my house for a while." Fang Yousheng said again.

Living in Fang Yousheng's mansion must be much more comfortable than living in this earthen house. It's too late for a woman to be grateful, so naturally she won't have any objections.

"Sister Wen." Lu Geshi suddenly took out a few pieces of pie that he didn't know when he hid from his pocket, and stuffed them into the woman's hand, "You can accept it. If you hadn't helped me back then, I might have died here It's out in the wild."

"Geshi." Wen Shi hugged Lu Geshi, "I want to thank you."

"It's time to return."

Fang Yousheng reminded, interrupting the sensational conversation between the siblings.

The child was wrapped in swaddling clothes, neither crying nor fussing, almost unconscious.Lu Geshi nervously yelled "Huanxi" along the way, wanting Fang Yousheng to ride faster, but also afraid that the road would be too bumpy.

Fang Yousheng wanted Lu Geshi to relax, so he asked, "Why do you call her Sister Wen?"

Lu Gezhi hesitated for a moment and said, "Actually... no one has ever met Sister Wen's husband. 'Wen' is also her own surname, and her son is Wen Huanxi."

In the following words, Fang Yousheng can imagine the humiliation and discrimination that Wen Clan suffered without going into details.Probably Lu Gezhi didn't want to call her by that name, so he ignored her seniority and class and called her sister.

"She's young enough to try to find some work."

"But she has a child."

"I can help her find a place. But..." Fang Yousheng paused and said, "There are basically demons there."

"Is there such a place?" Lu Geshi's curiosity was aroused, "Can I go?"

"What? Fang Mansion can't keep you?"

"...I'll just ask." Lu Geshi curled his lips, "She knows I belong to a fox and doesn't reject demons."

"Why do you tell people everything?"

"It's because I was too weak at that time to maintain my human form." Lu Ge saw that they were walking in the direction of returning to Fangfu, and asked, "Aren't you going to the medical center?"

"Earlier, I asked Uncle Chen to invite the doctor." Fang Yousheng said, "There is no need to go to the clinic."

"Then..." Lu Geshi wanted to ask the restaurant at first, but then he thought about the importance of medical treatment, so he closed his mouth embarrassingly.

Fang Yousheng could see his thoughts: "Having hidden so many pies, why didn't I eat any of them?"

Lu Geshi whispered: "No."

"You little fox." Fang Yousheng teased him, "I really can't say no to you. You're still going on a hunger strike, like a three-year-old."

After he mentioned it like this, Lu Geshi became stubborn again: "I just simply don't want to eat!"

"Then you won't let me hug you when you get on the horse?"

"I could have come by myself!"

"Do you still want to ride a horse?"

"I just want to ride, can't I?"

"No." Fang Yousheng said, "No."

"I'm in charge of eating, sleeping, even riding a horse!" Lu Geshi became more and more excited, "I might as well go to the Yamen!"

When mentioning the yamen, Fang Yousheng suddenly thought of another question: "About the yamen, what did the tiger demon tell you before?"

Lu Geshi realized that he had made a slip of the tongue, and said guiltily: "Just say that I will peel my skin, cram my tendons... and dig my fox beads to make alchemy."

Fang Yousheng raised his forehead: "...didn't you say anything else?"

"Also, what else?"

"Then you should know what kind of work those young ladies in Qingque Tower do?"

"I know I know!" Lu Geshi nodded excitedly, "They are there to seduce people!"

"What do seducers do?"

"Seduce people...isn't it just seduce people?" Lu Geshi rolled his eyes, "Take off your clothes and let others touch you?"

"Just touch?"

"if not?"

"Otherwise?!" Fang You was so angry that he wanted to laugh, "Your gang is quite...clean."

"How do you know? When Brother Hu was here, we took turns cleaning every day." Lu Geshi sighed, "But he loves me so much that he won't even let me sweep the floor."

Fang Yousheng immediately changed his face, and said coldly, "That's called doting."

"Oh." Lu Gezhi snorted softly, "That's good for me, too."

The atmosphere dropped to the freezing point again, Lu Gezhi couldn't see Fang Yousheng's expression, felt uneasy, opened his eyes and said nonsense: "It seems to be coming soon?"

Fang Yousheng ignored him. In fact, Fang Yousheng didn't say a word to Lu Geshi from then until the doctor saw Wen Huanxi's doctor and prescribed the prescription.

But Lu Geshi didn't feel that he had said something wrong, and he didn't want to make friends with Fang Yousheng.

Besides, didn't Fang Yousheng tell him not to be obedient?He obediently acted as the head office.

Wen Huanxi's illness was not as serious as it seemed, and it was probably the only good news of the day.The child needed someone to take care of him all night, so Chen Bo didn't let Lu Geshi guard him, he half pushed him and shut him outside the door.

Fang Yousheng was still standing outside, as if waiting for him.

Lu Geshi glanced at him a few times, and reluctantly asked first, "It's so late, do you still want to go to the place you mentioned?"

"It's just going to be so late."

As if believing that Lu Geshi would definitely follow him, Fang Yousheng walked slowly to the door first.

This made Lu Geshi even more sad. He lowered his head, not wanting to take a step.His eye sockets and cheeks were hot, his throat was choked, grievances flowed from the bottom of his heart like cold moonlight, and dripped on his toes like raindrops.

"Why are you still crying?" Fang Yousheng gently brushed Lu Geshi's cheek with his cocooned fingertips, he squatted down, and rarely looked up at Lu Geshi, "The little fox is crying like a little cat."

Lu Geshi didn't expect Fang Yousheng to come back, and even suddenly spoke softly, which made him cry even harder.He covered his face with his elbow, sobbing: "Why do you want to come back?"

"Not going there anymore."

Fang Yousheng stood up, instead of looking at Lu Geshi's crying face, he hugged the crying fox and patted him on the back.

"Are you... where are you going to sell me?" Lu Geshi grabbed Fang Yousheng's lapel, and said several times before clearing the vague words, "Do you hate me?"

"Song recognition."

It was the first time that Fang Yousheng called him like this, and it was also the first time that Lu Geshi knew that his name could be called so nicely.

"I'm just a little bit annoyed."

Lu Gezhi has never seen such a gentle Fang Yousheng.At a loss, he wrinkled Fang Yousheng's skirt, hurriedly let go of his hand, tried to smooth out that wrinkle, and apologized softly.

"I was the one who was too harsh on you." Fang Yousheng held Lu Geshi's hand and put it on his lapel, "You can wrinkle it, you can act like a baby, you don't need to be punished, you don't need to sweep the floor."

Lu Gezhi doubted what he heard, and stared at Fang Yousheng in a daze.

"Don't cry anymore." Fang Yousheng wiped away the tears on his face, and admitted rather helplessly, "I don't know how to coax people."

Lu Geshi hurriedly said: "Then if I stop crying, will what you just said still count?"

Fang Yousheng nodded: "It counts."

"Then, can I add another one?"

"You said."

Lu Ge shyly said: "Can I...stay in Fangfu forever?"

"Didn't it be better to go to the yamen?"

"I was wrong."

Lu Geshi clung to Fang Yousheng's ear, coquettishly: "You promised me."

"Don't..." Fang Yousheng changed the subject, "Don't act like a spoiled child to outsiders."

"I know." Lu Geshi, who was allowed to act like a baby, hugged Fang Yousheng's neck with a smile, his fox ears popped out, and rubbed Fang Yousheng's chin affectionately, "Just act like a baby with Master Fang."

Fang Yousheng silently recited "This is acting like a baby, not seduction" ten times in his heart, resisting the most primitive impulse in his body.
