CHAPTER 218: CHAPTER 218: THE PET RAISED

"Xue’er, you’re awake." Mu Qiancheng saw Jiang Xue awake and a smile appeared on his face as he asked, "How do you feel, any discomfort?"

Jiang Xue’s face immediately turned red, and she softly replied, "I’m fine!"

Jiang Xue’s voice was very soft, like a mosquito’s buzz, but Mu Qiancheng heard it loud and clear. His smile widened as he leaned down to kiss her face and said, "That’s good. If you feel uncomfortable, be sure to tell me immediately."

Jiang Xue didn’t speak, but her face turned even redder with shyness.

Mu Qiancheng noticed his young wife’s unease. Although he wanted to kiss her again and hold her, he held back.

"You sleep a bit more, I’ll go buy breakfast."

After saying that, Mu Qiancheng got out of bed, put on his clothes, and left the room. As soon as he exited, he heard movement in the kitchen, so he went to have a look and saw his mother Bai Yuhua already busy.

"Mom, why are you up so early?" Mu Qiancheng entered the kitchen, saw his mother cooking porridge, and said, "Mom, I’ll buy some deep-fried dough sticks and buns later, so you don’t have to make anything else."

"Qian Cheng, why don’t you sleep a bit more?" Bai Yuhua smiled and asked, seeing her son up so early. She seldom had her son back home and hoped he could rest more.

"I’m used to it!" Mu Qiancheng smiled and then said, "I’m going out for a run, and I’ll bring back breakfast."

"Go ahead!"

Mu Qiancheng left the kitchen, changed his shoes, and went out. He ran a few laps around the neighborhood and then went to buy breakfast.

Meanwhile, Jiang Xue didn’t go back to sleep after Mu Qiancheng left. Instead, she slipped into her practice space before their son woke up.

Although she had been busy these days, she still maintained her daily cultivation routine. Fortunately, Mu Qiancheng went out first, otherwise, her morning practice would have been interrupted.

In this space, just like outside, the morning air was good, making it suitable for cultivation.

Jiang Xue practiced in the space for an hour until Little Reunion woke up, and then she came out. As she came out, the Little Fox insisted on following her.

So, she brought the Little Fox out and let it play with her son. Seeing the Little Fox made Little Reunion very happy, and soon the child and the creature were playing together.

Jiang Xue watched and then went to wash up with peace of mind.

Not long after, Mu Qiancheng returned, carrying breakfast. Seeing Jiang Xue up, he smiled and asked, "Xue’er, you’re up. Where’s Little Reunion?"

"In the room," Jiang Xue said while heading back to the room, intending to get the Little Fox back into the space. Unexpectedly, the Little Fox was unwilling to go back.

It was too lonely staying in the space alone, so it wanted to stay outside. At least this way, it could play with Little Reunion.

Jiang Xue looked at the Little Fox, a bit annoyed, and said, "Little Fox, my husband has come back. If he finds out about you, how should I explain it to him?"

"Just say I came by myself, wouldn’t that work?" The Little Fox had no concerns. After all, there are many people keeping dogs and cats, so Jiang Xue could just tell Mu Qiancheng it was her pet.

This way, it would have a legitimate identity, and it could always stay outside to play with Little Reunion.

"This is the city, not the mountains. Isn’t it strange for a fox to suddenly appear? And it shows up in my room?" Jiang Xue was speechless, as Mu Qiancheng wasn’t a fool.
