Chapter 2822 The Old Man and Shangqing

"It is my fault."

Xiao Xiao spoke at the right time.

……

what?
The elegant old man was a little surprised.

Then it seemed somewhat natural.

There are only Xiao Xiao and Shang Qing here.

Xiao Xiao's expression was normal.

Shangqing looked solemn...

Even if the change in Shangqing's expression was not because of Xiao Xiao, this kid Xiao Xiao must know something.

The elegant old man looked at Xiao Xiao.

"Can you tell me what happened?"

Could it be that these two children had a quarrel?

The elegant old man shook his head in his heart.

He quickly denied his guess.

Neither of these two children is of an unreasonable or bad temper.

Although this was the first time he met Xiao Xiao and they had not been together for a long time, he had a general idea of ​​the boy's temperament.

It's somewhat similar to Shangqing.

They are the type who are neither hurried nor slow and do things with ease.

His personality seems to be easier to get along with than Shangqing's.

Will these two kids quarrel?
He didn't believe it.

Is that a disagreement?

Naturally, there would be times of disagreement in his discussions with Shangqing.

Rather, it is unlikely that there will be a “fairly matched” discussion without disagreements.

but……

The elegant old man tried hard to search his memory.

He remembers...

Even though they had disagreements, Shangqing's speaking speed didn't change at all.

Although this often makes him more emotional.

Shangqing had never shown such an obvious change in expression when discussing with him.

Think of it...

The elegant old man became even more curious about what had happened here when he was in the kitchen just now.

……

Xiao Xiao curved his eyebrows.

"Grandpa Ouyang, this is Ah Jiu."

Xiao Xiao slightly raised the little white fox in his arms.

……

"what?"

The elegant old men were ready to hear the reason.

He subconsciously preferred or hoped that Xiao Xiao could tell him the truth.

He subconsciously ignored the possibility that Xiao Xiao would refuse to answer.

But now the elegant old man is very confused.

The change of subject caught him off guard.

He subconsciously looked at the little white fox in Xiao Xiao's arms.

He noticed the little white fox the first time he saw Xiao Xiao.

At first he thought it was a pet like a kitten or a puppy.

Although he had seen boys with pets before.

However, it seemed like this was the first time he saw a boy holding a pet.

But it is indeed a very cute little guy.

He couldn't help but glance at his own Dafu.

Uh……

It's simply the difference between a rough man and a little princess.

……

Later, when he happened to catch a glimpse of the little guy's ears, he suddenly understood.

Oh.

It turned out to be a little fox.

He was a little surprised.

Many people keep cats and dogs.

But raising foxes... is quite rare.

Doesn’t fox have a strong smell?

He sniffed it deliberately.

Is it because we are far away?

I won't either...

But he really didn't smell anything strange.

Looking at the snow-white little white fox, the elegant old man suddenly wondered, how could such a beautiful and spotless fox have a strange smell?

It's just like the legendary beast.

She's just a little bit petite.

If it had a few more tails, wouldn't it be the nine-tailed fox described in unofficial history magazines?
and many more.

"Ajiu..."

Did this child think the same as he did, that this little fox looked like the legendary nine-tailed fox?
So that's why you chose this name?

……

"Ajiu is so beautiful."

The elegant old man did not hesitate to praise.

This little white fox deserves any praise.

beautiful.

She is so beautiful that she doesn't even seem like a creature from this mortal world.

No wonder the kid carries it everywhere he goes.

If he had such a pet, he would probably take it wherever he went.

……

"hiss~"

The white snake grinned.

It let out a slight hiss. It just couldn't get used to seeing humans praising the stinky fox like they had never seen the world before.

What's so good about a stinky fox?
Humans are-
Cough~
Most humans are visionless creatures.

The white snake angrily tied a bow with its tail.

snort!
……

"Thank you."

Xiao Xiao smiled.

"Shangqing thinks so too, right?"

……

Shangqing Boy: ...

It's just a little interested in that big tail.

……

The elegant old man blinked.

what?
……

Xiao Xiao raised the corner of his mouth.

"Shangqing wanted to touch Ajiu just now."

"I was slow to remind you."

"Ajiu doesn't like strangers touching it."

"...Shangqing was attacked by Ajiu."

……

"what?!"

The elegant old man opened his mouth slightly.

"Attacked by Jiu?"

"Shangqing?"

The old man suddenly became nervous.

"Shangqing, you are not hurt, right?"

"Are you ok?"

....
Shangqing shook his head.

"I am fine."

"…It was just a moment of carelessness."

After thinking about it, Shangqing added this sentence.

Although it doesn't like explanations.

But it really feels unfair about what happened today.

It just wanted to touch the little white fox's tail.

A tail that looks soft and fluffy.

The result was a red mark on the back of my hand.

……

"oh oh."

The elegant old man looked at Shangqing carefully and nodded with relief.

"It's okay."

……

Then the old man thought of the stagnant atmosphere he had just seen, and he let out a sigh of relief in his heart.

"Shangqing didn't mean it."

He smiled apologetically at Xiao Xiao.

At the same time, I felt emotional in my heart.

Sure enough, it is easier for children to release their nature when they are with other children.

Today Shangqing looks especially like a child that matches his appearance.

Like to eat snacks.

Love cute animals...

……

"It's ok."

There was a smile on Xiao Xiao's lips.

"It was me who failed to stop it in time."

"Ajiu's reaction was a bit exaggerated."

……

"The little guy was frightened."

The elegant old man smiled gently at the little white fox lying in Xiao Xiao's arms.

When small animals are frightened, they will attack subconsciously.

This is their self-protection.

……

He looked up at Shang Qing.

"Shangqing, if you like Jiu, don't scare it."

"If I'm not mistaken, did you touch it suddenly?"

……

The Shangqing boy was stunned.

What a strange question.

It wanted to touch the fox, so it reached out and touched it.

Is there any more steps required?

……

The elegant old man was not surprised by Shangqing's reaction.

After nearly a year of getting along, he didn't dare to say that he knew Shangqing very well.

After all, if you really asked him to tell you about Shangqing's situation, he really knew nothing.

But he still had some understanding of Shangqing's ideas and habits.

Shangqing looks like an immortal, but in fact he really seems to be ignorant of the sufferings of the world and wandering outside of this earthly world.

For Shangqing, there is only the concept of whether he wants to do it, not whether he should do it.

He thought the little fox was cute and wanted to touch it, so he reached out his hand.

He had no idea that the little fox's owner was here.

If he wanted to touch the little fox, he should ask the little fox's owner what he thought.

If he just asked one more question.

He wouldn't have been attacked by the little fox later.
