Chapter 115
Pei Chiyao reacted extremely quickly, instinctively wanting to pull Zhi Yao into his embrace, but at that moment, Shen Yilian also moved.
She said in a panic, "Zhi Yao, run quickly!"
Immediately after, she took quick steps to block in front of Zhi Yao, ostensibly wanting to push Zhi Yao inside to hide, but in reality, she pushed Zhi Yao out.
"Whoosh" - something poured down on them from above.
Black and sticky, with a sour stench, the three were all soaked without exception.
Zhi Yao was drenched the most, the liquid dripping down from the top of her head, soaking her entire body.
The little girl blinked her eyes in a daze, completely unaware of what had happened.
Shen Yilian was overjoyed in her heart. She had succeeded! She had succeeded!!!
As long as she could capture the moment of Zhi Yao transforming from human to fox, wouldn't she then be disgraced?! Even if she didn't publicize this footage, it would still be enough to threaten Zhi Yao and Pei Chiyao.
At this moment, Pei Chiyao's face was pitch black, "Jiang Zhu!"
But strangely, after Jiang Zhu had completed this series of actions, he suddenly fell straight down to the ground.
He was covered in wounds, making it hard to imagine how he had mustered the strength to run over here just now.
To avoid conflict and suspicion from Pei Chiyao at this moment, Shen Yilian hurriedly turned around, pretending to check on the fallen Jiang Zhu with great urgency, "Jiang Zhu, Jiang Zhu! Wake up quickly! Wake up!"
Of course, Jiang Zhu would not respond to Shen Yilian at all.
Shen Yilian's heart was silently counting down...
Three, two, one...
She stood up and turned her head abruptly towards Zhi Yao.
Sure enough, Zhi Yao's face was deathly pale, as if she would faint at any moment.
Pei Chiyao immediately forgot about pursuing Jiang Zhu's troubles, pulling Zhi Yao into his arms to bring her into the resting room.
But before that door could even close, Shen Yilian grabbed it to stop them.
"No! You can't leave!"
Shen Yilian shook her head frantically, "If we don't send him to the hospital now, Jiang Zhu will really die!"
She had to delay them! She had arranged for people to be hiding, and as long as they could fully record Zhi Yao's transformation from human to fox, she would succeed!
But what Shen Yilian never expected was for Pei Chiyao to be so heartless.
"Get out of the way."
With one kick to Shen Yilian's chest, he slammed the door shut.
Shen Yilian let out a miserable cry as she fell to the ground.
She propped herself up, disheveled hair covering her face. But the face hidden beneath those strands was smiling.
Hahaha! She had prepared a backup plan - she had carefully installed a pinhole camera inside the resting room too! No way she would miss capturing it!
As for Pei Chiyao's side, as soon as the door closed, Zhi Yao immediately returned to normal. "I'm fine."
She had only pretended to look weak earlier, afraid that Pei Chiyao might actually kill Jiang Zhu in a rage. If Jiang Zhu died, Pei Chiyao would go to jail!
Zhi Yao finally had a moment to try cleaning the filth off her body, hastily spitting "pah pah pah" several times, but not only could she not spit anything out, her stomach was still feeling nauseous.
Pei Chiyao was also stained by quite a bit of this strange sticky liquid, but at this moment he couldn't care less about himself, immediately grabbing tissues from the resting room to gently wipe Zhi Yao clean.
Zhi Yao felt uncomfortable all over, especially with her clothes soaked through, clinging tightly to her body.
Seeing Zhi Yao's expression, Pei Chiyao asked with some concern, "Babe, does anything feel unwell?"
Zhi Yao shook her head, "Not unwell, just nauseous."
She couldn't stand the feeling of her damp clothes sticking to her body, especially with the lingering foul stench. The little girl thought for a moment, then decided to transform back into a fox, as she might not feel so uncomfortable that way.
"Shaa" - in an instant, the girl who had just been standing in front of Pei Chiyao turned into a... jet black fox.
She stood on the ground, her entire body black in color.
Zhi Yao shook her head and body, like a little dog that had just been bathed, frantically shaking to try and get the nauseating liquid off her fur.
She didn't notice Pei Chiyao's strange expression.
His expression was very odd.
Because at this moment, Zhi Yao's appearance seemed extremely familiar to him.
Where had he seen it before?
He struggled to recall, but only felt a wave of dizziness wash over him.
After shaking for a while, Zhi Yao still couldn't get rid of the filth on her body, leaving her panting, "Pei Chiyao, quickly take me to wash up."
There was no bathroom here, but there was at least a sink.
However, Pei Chiyao remained motionless, so Zhi Yao finally looked up at him, "What's wrong with you?"
Hearing Zhi Yao's voice, Pei Chiyao finally snapped out of it.
But the way he looked at Zhi Yao was still strange.
Zhi Yao felt utterly baffled, and after waiting for a while with no response from Pei Chiyao, the little girl could no longer stand the discomfort. She opened her mouth and bit onto Pei Chiyao's pant leg, tugging forcefully forward.
Pei Chiyao finally pulled himself out of the heavy memories of the past.
He bent down and scooped Zhi Yao up from the ground, holding her in his arms, not minding at all that the filth on her body was dirtying his expensive suit.
"Good girl, the water here is cold, we can't rinse you off." Zhi Yao's body was frail, and if she chilled herself just for temporary cleanliness, that wouldn't be good.
But Zhi Yao was truly too uncomfortable. She turned her head, her fox snout sniffing at her own body, catching a whiff of the sour stench, almost like vomit.
The little fox nearly threw up herself.
"What... what is this stuff?! Has Jiang Zhu gone insane?"
Zhi Yao really couldn't understand why Jiang Zhu would do this to her. They had no grudges, so was it just to take revenge for Shen Yilian?
But Pei Chiyao fell silent for a moment before speaking, "Yao, did you notice that Jiang Zhu's reaction was very strange, especially... when he was walking over here earlier."
Walking over earlier?
Zhi Yao tilted her head, carefully recalling until she finally remembered some clues.
When Jiang Zhu had walked over before, his movements were like a puppet on strings, as if being controlled by some unseen force.
As soon as this thought emerged, Zhi Yao shuddered in fright.
Pei Chiyao gently patted the little black fox in his arms, patiently comforting her, "Don't be afraid."
Just at that moment, an even stranger sound came from the door. It was not like someone knocking, but rather... like something was scratching at the door.
Zhi Yao was so frightened that her first instinct was to hide in Pei Chiyao's robes, but she suddenly remembered how dirty she was and didn't want to soil Pei Chiyao as well.
The young lady stared at the door in wide-eyed terror, inexplicably reminded of horror movies.
