Chapter 125: You, Child of Destiny, Do You Not Have Even a Hint of Shame?
“By the way, little junior, is that woman in the picture the Zuo Qiu you brought back earlier?”
Yu Yao looked at the opening screen ad again, pointing at the woman in the picture and asking.
Bai Feng nodded: “Yep, the photo turned out pretty good, huh?”
“Hm…” Yu Yao examined it a bit more before turning her head and asking, “This outfit looks like it’s from my shop, right? Where’d you get it? Weren’t my doors always closed lately?”
“Oh, I bought it before all that happened, just right for Zuo Qiu to wear,” Bai Feng replied casually. “I took her to help out because Madam’s request was pretty serious.”
Actually, Zuo Qiu’s clothes were two pieces Lin Yan gave him. The size fit her well, so he had her change into these new clothes for the advertisement sh**t.
Yu Yao scratched her head: “But I don’t remember you buying clothes before…”
Didn’t she hint earlier that she wanted him to help modify formations? Had he started planning even then?
Thinking about it, she really couldn’t stop overthinking.
“Of course, I had someone else buy them for me. Otherwise, isn’t it weird for me to go buy women’s clothing?” Bai Feng quickly spun an excuse and changed the subject. “Forget that, what ideas do you have, senior sister? Hurry up and tell me! I’ve got some free time, so I’ll help you modify them all.”
“Hehe, then I won’t hold back, little junior.”
Hearing that, Bai Feng’s spirit lifted immediately, and she began listing her desired functions one by one.
The more she talked, the more excited she got. But Bai Feng’s brow furrowed deeper.
How could such an adorable senior sister be so disgusting when she acts as the client and keeps making nastier requests than the last?
……
“Is modifying formations for senior sister even more exhausting than building big arrays?”
Bai Feng flopped onto the sofa after returning home.
At that moment, he noticed a small note on the table beside the sofa. Picking it up, he saw it was left by Bai Yu Mo:
“Big Bro, I’ve cooked some porridge for you. Remember to eat it on time!”
“……”
Wow, my little sister’s really evolved into Mom…
He chuckled and shook his head, then got up and headed to the kitchen to serve himself a bowl of meat congee.
Recently, Bai Yu Mo had been following her master to train, clearly shaken by what had happened earlier.
Suddenly, someone knocked on his door. He set down his bowl, pushed open the door and saw Zuo Qiu standing there, looking rather earnest.
“Is there something?”
Bai Feng looked at her, her head bowed, seeming very obedient, and asked.
“Um…” Zuo Qiu looked aside, seemingly feeling a bit shy. She slowly raised her hand, holding a tiny metal ball. “Can you carve your name on this?”
Bai Feng looked at the mini ball in her palm, puzzled: “What are you trying to do?”
“I… tweaked a bit of the collar…”
Zuo Qiu slowly raised her head, revealing the black ornament around her neck. It was still leather, with a metal buckle structure, but now decorated with some patterns, and the edges were more rounded. It didn’t look quite like a spirit beast collar anymore.
Bai Feng: “……”
No, why do you insist on sticking to that collar?
“I’ll hide this in the bell,” Zuo Qiu said, pulling out a metal bell to attach to the collar.
“Hold on, I might as well say it straight,” Bai Feng rubbed his forehead. “I have no interest in whether you’re a good dog or not. I helped you only because we have a common enemy. I need you to deal with Black Lotus. Understand?”
“Hmm…” Zuo Qiu nodded. “So, can you carve your name on this?”
“……”
I explained myself clearly!
Seeing she was stubborn, Bai Feng no longer bothered to persuade her. Since she’s determined, he simply took the ball and carved his name into it with his spiritual power.
“Thank you, Young Master.”
Only then did Zuo Qiu breathe a sigh of relief. She hurriedly took the ball, placed it into the bell, and wore it around her neck.
Her modifications to the collar and the carvings on the bell weren’t because she was obsessed with being a dog.
No, it was because lately, Bai Feng’s attitude towards her had been overly cold, like she was a stranger—even less than a friend.
The only time she had approached him recently was to help sh**t that ad and in return, he gave her a few Spirit Stones.
This made her feel a little insecure. She didn’t want this kind of relationship.
Especially now that she couldn’t return to the Refining God Sect—if she did, she’d likely be punished, maybe even stripped of her cultivation and expelled. She didn’t want to end up a wandering rogue either.
All she could do was cling to Bai Feng’s thigh.
And she wanted more than just being a disposable maid or someone exchanged like a token by second-generation rich kids. She wanted to be a loyal dog that could follow Bai Feng anywhere.
To secure that identity, she had to show Bai Feng her determination. That collar she wore was just one example.
After putting on the bell, she gently shook it, and it emitted a clear, cheerful sound.
Then she thought of something and quickly took out a sturdy rope from her storage bag. “Master, here’s this for you.”
“What’s this?” Bai Feng picked up the rope, feeling it looked very familiar.
He glanced at Zuo Qiu silently. Kid, you’re really playing big with this Child of Destiny title!
Yeah, little master, there’s more to this chapter—please click ‘Next’ to keep reading; it gets even more exciting!
You’re really bold, huh? Trying something odd with XP, huh?
“Um… that… rope.”
Zuo Qiu averted her gaze slightly, feeling a mix of shame and resolve.
Bai Feng, inwardly, sneered: So you also have some shame after all, huh!
He tugged on the rope in his hand and grinned disdainfully.
You’re responsible for giving me so much luck points via the system, yet you still dare come up front and act tough, stirring up bad memories. Fine, I’ll take this chance to ‘humiliate’ you properly and make you see the reality—don’t think I’m easy to fool.
Once you understand the truth, maybe you’ll reconsider being a dog!
He pretended to be puzzled, asking, “What kind of rope is this? I don’t quite get it, can you explain?”
“Huh?”
Zuo Qiu hurriedly lifted her head and saw Bai Feng’s confident grin. She immediately understood he was teasing her on purpose.
But forced under the eaves, she had no choice but to suppress her embarrassment and explain: “It’s… a dog leash, for walking dogs.”
“Hmm, I see,” Bai Feng nodded, then changed the subject. “But why are you giving me a dog leash? If you don’t clarify, I can’t understand!”
“I—”
Her face turned even redder. She tightly gripped her robe’s hem, trembling faintly.
Bai Feng felt a sudden wave of pleasure: ‘Haha, can’t handle it? Just go away then, act as my tool and be done with it.’
“Don’t bother saying more if you can’t tell. Don’t keep dreaming about random stuff. Once Black Lotus is dealt with, I won’t care where you go…”
He waved his hand dismissively, but before he finished, he saw Zuo Qiu take a deep breath, seemingly finally restraining her shame.
She lifted her head and, one word at a time, looked him in the eyes: “I am the dog of my master. This dog leash is for walking me. Please, master, walk me with the leash I gave you.”
Bai Feng: “?”
What? You dare say that out loud? You, Child of Destiny, do you not have a shred of shame?
【Ding: Detected that host’s behavior is extremely perverse—forcing Zuo Qiu to admit the leash is for walking her, deepening her awareness of her status. Awarded Luck Points +213, “Spirit Pet Rearing Guide.”】
d*mn, I was wrong, bro! I swear I’ll never do that again! Please take back that divine ability!
I was just bored and wanted to tease her, why did I have to push her like this!
I’ll never be so disrespectful again!
