The Female Fox Spirit Gets Spoiled by the Big Shot

This statement touched Zhi Yao deeply.

Although Pei Chiyao could be quite possessive in some matters, like not allowing her to film romantic scenes... in other aspects, he was surprisingly respectful of Zhi Yao.

But the young girl suddenly felt like teasing him a bit. She leaned close to Pei Chiyao and asked daringly, "...What if I wanted to film a kissing scene?"

"That's fine."

What?!

This time, it was Zhi Yao's turn to be shocked.

Pei Chiyao actually agreed to let her film a kissing scene?

The little girl pushed her luck further, asking, "What about a bed scene? Is that okay too?!"

She had barely filmed any kissing or bed scenes before. If Zhi Yao were to actually film one, she wasn't sure she'd want to. Foxes are very sensitive to scents, and Zhi Yao didn't like having other people's scents on her.

Of course, Pei Chiyao was the exception.

"That's fine too," Pei Chiyao replied in a calm tone, revealing nothing.

Zhi Yao wondered if someone had possessed his soul.

Goodness! Was this really Pei Chiyao?!

After the initial shock, Zhi Yao felt a twinge of hurt for some reason. "Pei Chiyao, you... you don't love me anymore!"

She knew that when you care about someone, your possessiveness grows wildly. Putting herself in his shoes, Zhi Yao wouldn't want Pei Chiyao to film kissing scenes with others, let alone bed scenes.

As that hint of sourness welled up inside her, Zhi Yao's tears began to flow.

But before those teardrops could fall, the man raised his fingertips and gently wiped away Zhi Yao's tear tracks. He chuckled softly, "Trying to tease me, but ended up crying yourself? Wouldn't you say that's... making yourself cry?"

Zhi Yao glared at Pei Chiyao, her cheeks puffed out in anger, not wanting to say another word to him.

"Are you really angry?"

He sighed and pinched her cheek gently. "How can you still be so silly? I agreed to let you film those scenes on the condition that your co-star would be me. Otherwise, do you think I'd agree?"

Zhi Yao sobbed, "You... you're not lying to me?"

"I didn't know I'd become so generous in your eyes."

Seeing her red eyes and nose, he couldn't resist leaning forward to gently bite her nose, making the little girl flinch in pain.

"If you dare to film kissing or bed scenes with anyone else behind my back, see if I don't break your legs."

His voice was low and husky, yet it carried an inexplicably alluring quality that made Zhi Yao's body go weak.

She felt certain that Pei Chiyao had cast a spell on her! Otherwise, why would she feel so happy when he threatened to break her legs?

"Alright, stop crying. I'll go with you, but you have to promise me that when we come back, we'll settle down and focus on having little fox cubs, okay?"

Zhi Yao nodded, "Mm!"

Now that Pei Chiyao supported her going, Zhi Yao had no more reservations.

Actually... she really wanted to go.

Because recently, Zhi Yao had accidentally logged onto her own Weibo account.

She usually didn't use it, because Zhi Yao knew many people on Weibo were insulting her. She now understood that some of those words weren't nice. Although she usually appeared thick-skinned, being insulted by so many people couldn't leave her completely unfazed.

Her heart wasn't made of diamond, after all.

So to avoid affecting her mood, Zhi Yao avoided looking at it whenever possible.

Until she accidentally tapped the wrong app the other day.

Unexpectedly, instead of the anticipated insults, she received many encouraging private messages.

They were all waiting for her to act, waiting for her to appear.

For the first time, the little girl received so much love from so many people. In the past, when she was small, not many people liked her, only her Mother.

Later, she met Pei Chiyao, and he brought her to meet so many fans who loved her.

She wanted to fulfill her fans' wishes. Of course, making money was also an important reason.

But these two weren't mutually exclusive.

Zhi Yao convinced herself.

After finishing this film, she would retire from the entertainment industry, stay at home contentedly, and work behind the scenes with Pei Chiyao, doing what she wanted to do.

When the world had changed and time had flown by, she and Pei Chiyao would find a place with few people and live there forever.

By then, she should have many, many fox cubs, right?

...

Three days later.

Zhi Yao joined the film crew.

This was Zhi Yao's second time joining a film crew. It had been nearly half a year since she last acted, so she still felt a bit unfamiliar with everything on set.

Moreover, Zhi Yao had joined mid-production, so everyone else already knew each other, leaving Zhi Yao as the only stranger.

But she didn't mind too much.

The little girl huddled in a corner with her script, reading it intently.

As she was deeply engrossed, someone suddenly tapped her shoulder lightly. Zhi Yao turned to see a young woman.

She recognized her as the female lead of this drama.

"Hello, Zhi Yao."

The girl's smile was infectious, her eyes crinkled into crescents, looking incredibly cute. The moment Zhi Yao saw her, she felt that this girl was indeed very suitable for the role.

"Hello," she nodded politely in return.

"I've been a fan of yours for a long time. You're so beautiful!" Yan Mu exclaimed, marveling at Zhi Yao's nearly perfect face.

The little girl felt quite embarrassed under her intense gaze. She shyly touched her cheek and said, "No, no, you're very pretty too."

Yan Mu stared at Zhi Yao's face, her gaze almost fanatical. "We'll be filming our scene together soon! I've watched your performance in 'Legend of the Fox Demon', your acting is amazing! I'm really looking forward to acting with you!"

Acting...

Zhi Yao recalled her previously outrageous performance style and couldn't help but feel a bit embarrassed.

"No, no, my acting is just average."

"Not at all! I've watched your performances, they're super good!"

This was turning into a major flattery session.

Yan Mu's excessive praise was getting to be too much, and Zhi Yao was finding it hard to resist.

For some reason, the little girl felt that... this Yan Mu seemed to like her a bit too much?

Her demeanor... it was as if she wanted to pounce on Zhi Yao.

Zhi Yao felt a bit awkward, but fortunately, the Director soon called for everyone to prepare for filming.

Only then did Yan Mu reluctantly leave.

Watching Yan Mu's retreating figure, Zhi Yao let out a sigh of relief and also got up to walk into the makeup room.

She had just sat down in the makeup room when she overheard a few staff members chatting.

"Have you noticed? There's been a lot more cat hair in the makeup room and lounge lately, but we don't even have a cat in our production team!"

"Maybe some stray cats sneak in at night."

"But there's really a lot of cat hair! You could make a feather duster out of it! Look! I even collected some yesterday. It's clearly left behind by a cat."

Cat hair?

Zhi Yao glanced over reflexively, but suddenly caught a whiff of a familiar scent...
