There's Something Wrong With These Demonic Women!

Chapter 59: Curious Little Fox

chapter 59: curious little fox

the little fox tossed and turned on the bed, her mind filled with stories from "journey to the west." because someone told the story so vividly, she was completely immersed and couldn't free herself from the tales, especially the lingering question about the meaning of the three knocks on sun wukong's head. what was the purpose?

could it be that it bestowed some divine power upon sun wukong?

"ah—"

suddenly, the little fox pushed aside the blanket and sat up in bed. angrily muttering to herself, "that damned man... he deliberately stopped there, now i can't even sleep properly."

the fox demoness grew more and more agitated, wishing she could skin lu xun alive and strip him of his tendons. he knew she was looking forward to this story, but he intentionally played with her, making her anxious... it was truly infuriating. if she could beat him up, she would've done it by now. oh wait, if he were gone, she wouldn't be able to hear "journey to the west."

"ah..."

"he's driving me crazy!"

"and sister xuan yin... why on earth did she choose such a fellow out of all the handsome and talented men in the world?" the little fox pouted, her brows filled with concern, murmuring, "is he really that great? is he?"

silently, she lay back down on the bed, her gaze fixed on the bed curtains. the tangled thoughts in her mind surged like a torrent. for a moment... the usually clear-minded little fox found herself unable to sleep. a bold idea emerged.

"no, no!"

"if i can't hear the continuation, i... i won't be able to sleep at all." the little fox hurriedly sat up again, determination in her eyes. with a swift motion, she threw off the blanket and got out of bed. her petite figure was dressed in a simple blue bellyband and undergarments, despite her thin build, it gave her an indescribable charm.

she found a nightgown in the wardrobe, put it on, and then walked quickly to the door. she cautiously pushed open the wooden door and peered into the backyard a few times. seeing no one around... she sneaked out, closing the door stealthily behind her, and briskly headed towards lu xun's room.

at the door,

the little fox was breathing slightly heavily, feeling like a guilty thief. subconsciously, she glanced towards xuan yin's room, and an inexplicable sense of embarrassment surged from within. she pursed her lips gently and continued on her way.

"my... should i really go in alone like this? what if he mistakes me for sister xuan yin?" the little fox muttered under her breath, her voice barely audible. she paused for a simple reflection and calm analysis. xuan shi dismissed the thought – after all, she and sister xuan yin were quite different. xuan yin was tall and voluptuous, while she was short and petite. the chances of being mistaken were slim.

but then again...

"i'm just a young demoness. sneaking into a man's room in the middle of the night, and sister xuan yin's fiancé's room at that. isn't this a bit inappropriate?" moreover, if she went in and found lu xun and sister xuan yin cuddling, disheveled, wouldn't it be even more awkward?

what to do...

"it means you came to find me in the middle of the night." lu xun shrugged again and answered nonchalantly.

"what?"

"what kind of nonsense is that?"

"isn't it that patriarch bodhi taught sun wukong the ability to travel through the heavens and earth by knocking his head?" the little fox furrowed her brows, disappointment evident on her face as she looked at the man before her.

xuan shi pouted and asked with curiosity and annoyance, "why did patriarch bodhi want sun wukong to find him?"

"want to know?" lu xun said mischievously.

"um..." the little fox nodded eagerly.

"come..."

"bring your ear closer." lu xun gestured to her, his voice mysteriously soft.

the innocent little fox took a couple of steps forward and obediently brought her head closer.

"i'll tell you tomorrow night." smirking, lu xun whispered in her ear.

in an instant,

the little fox was nearly infuriated, glaring at him with frustration, gritting her teeth and saying, "you... you..."

just then, a gentle yet hurried knocking on the door interrupted them.

"... husband..."

"i'm having trouble falling asleep..."

"can i come in and chat with you?"
