little cotton

"No, I just like dumplings." The person in front of him said, with an ambiguous smile on the corner of his mouth, "Pack it up and take it away, scan the QR code or cash?"

This person is male, tall and tall, with a pair of peach blossom eyes that are [-]% similar to Zhong Chuyun's. His appearance can be said to be quite outstanding. Once you meet him once, you will not easily forget him.

Zhong Chutian, the "bad fate" that Yu Ling wanted to escape with all her heart, stood in front of her again without warning.

"Where are you in a daze? Cotton." Zhong Chutian's slender fingers curled up slightly, and the knuckles of his index finger tapped the table lightly.

"Scan... just scan the QR code." Yu Ling responded blankly, standing up involuntarily, feeling that the blood all over her body was frozen.

She subconsciously glanced out the window.

At this moment, isn't it the little white car that brought her out of Xiquan Mountain that is parked on the side of the road outside?

This city is so big, she is just a little cotton flower whose spiritual power is so low that others may not be able to sense it, why can they find her?

Should she run away?

In terms of cultivation, body, and strength, it seems that there is no possibility of successful escape.

But this is a city of humans, and there are so many rules that goblins need to abide by, no matter how high their cultivation level is, it will be useless in front of others.

So, should she yell and keep herself from being taken by them?

Thinking this way, Yu Ling saw that Zhong Chutian had already scanned the QR code.

A payment reminder sounded in the lounge, and Sister Li quickly walked out of the house.

Sister Li, who had just woken up, saw Yu Ling standing motionless in front of the cash register with her head bowed and her eyes dodging as soon as she went out.

The atmosphere in front of her was too subtle, and Sister Li was stunned for a moment, before asking blankly, "Xiao Yu, why are you standing there? What do you want to eat?"

Yu Ling opened her mouth, and just as she was about to speak, Zhong Chutian took a step ahead.

"Leek eggs, dumplings, packed, thank you."

"My family's leeks and eggs are more delicious when steamed." Sister Li habitually reminded.

"I want dumplings." Zhong Chutian said, looking at Yu Ling again.

"It's fine, it's delicious too." Sister Li replied, turned around and walked towards the kitchen.

Yu Ling unconsciously took two steps back, her back pressed against the cold wall, and the coolness penetrated through the thin clothes, making her frown slightly.

Zhong Chutian: "My sister said that if you have any ideas, you can speak up, she will give you the greatest respect, there is no need to run away without saying a word, and make everyone very embarrassed."

Yu Ling bit her lip and muttered softly, "Why did you find me..."

"Don't look down on the fox too much, Little Cotton." Zhong Chutian said, put away his smiling face, leaned sideways to the cashier and sighed, glanced at Yu Ling from the corner of his eye, and said lightly, "Pack up your things and go back with my sister."

"Don't!" Yu Ling shook her head, said in a very low voice but very seriously, "It is against the law to imprison a goblin in private, you have no right to lock me up!"

"My sister didn't lock you up."

"Yes, there is! She confiscated my ID card and raised me at home every day, just to find a day for me to marry you!" Yu Ling whispered, and couldn't help gritting her teeth when she reached this point. He said, "I don't want it. There are so many women in the Mu clan, and most of them don't want to marry. Why can't you change one?"

"Little sister, be reasonable." Zhong Chutian said helplessly, "You don't want to marry, and I don't have to marry you, do I?"

"If that's the case, then I'm fine now, I don't have to worry about food and lodging, why should I go with you?" Yu Ling said, her innocent eyes widening.

"I don't know what my sister is thinking, she has been looking for you for several days." Zhong Chutian said, standing up straight, took a deep breath, and said, "Anyway, you have to go back if you say anything today."

When Yu Ling heard it, she became a little anxious: "You, don't force me, I'm going to scream!"

Zhong Chutian didn't care: "You called."

Yu Ling gritted her teeth and warned: "Don't take it seriously, I will say you are a hooligan, you...you are a human trafficker! I...my voice is really loud!"

Little Mianmian's voice was low, her tone was cowardly, and she didn't have the slightest confidence in what she said, let alone convincing.

"You say what you say, you can say whatever you want." Zhong Chutian said, he took out a little red book from his body, slapped it on the table, and said indifferently, "Anyway, your name is on this household registration book, we are now a family, Make it up as you like, I have a thick skin and am not afraid to explain it to others."

"...What, what is a household registration book?"

"It's not a family, and you don't get a penny."

Yu Ling took a deep breath.

She never thought that in a human city, apart from an ID card, there is such a thing as a household registration book.

It's over now, she was eaten to death by these two foxes.

……

On the seventh day of returning to freedom, Yu Ling was taken into Zhong Chuyun's car by Zhong Chutian under Sister Li's helpless and regretful eyes.

Yu Ling finally knew why Zhong Chuyun asked Zhong Chutian to come in to pick her up.

This male fox has a face that is super easy to win people's favor. When he tells a lie, he doesn't need to draft it at all. He only needs to stand there and move his lips a little, and it is a touching nonsense.

Not only did he say that he was her cousin, but he also said that she was some kind of repeat student in the third year of high school. A while ago, her midterm grades were not satisfactory, her mentality collapsed, and she had a big fight with her family, so she ran away without saying a word.

Yu Ling didn't quite understand what was not ideal for repeating the third year of high school, but she found that Sister Li's eyes were full of shock after hearing it, and she knew that this lying fox had definitely said bad things about her.

Because the address on the ID card matches the household registration book, Yu Ling knew that she couldn't argue with anything, so she had to agree to go home and study hard under Sister Li's earnest persuasion.

When leaving, Yu Ling didn't make a fuss, just took off the clothes that Sister Li gave her, folded them, and put them neatly on the sofa in the lounge.

The familiar white car parked outside for a long time.

When Yu Ling got into the co-pilot, she was holding a box of leek and egg dumplings in her hand.

She glanced timidly at Zhong Chuyun on the left, and seeing his cold brows, she lowered her little head as if she had made a big mistake.

The car drove towards Yu Ling's unfamiliar direction, and Zhong Chutian in the back seat ate dumplings, and the whole car smelled like leeks and eggs.

Yu Ling stared at the box of dumplings in her hand for a while, and couldn't help but wonder in her heart, Zhong Chutian in the back row ate so deliciously, obviously didn't eat anything at noon, so...Have Zhong Chuyun eaten?

There shouldn't be any, otherwise Zhong Chutian bought two sets of dumplings and handed one of them to her for what?

It can't be for her to eat, can it?She ate at noon.

Thinking of this, Yu Ling clenched the plastic lunch box in her hand even tighter.

"You, have you eaten?" Yu Ling couldn't help asking in a low voice.

"Not yet." Zhong Chuyun replied lightly.

"Hmm... Then, do you want to eat?" Yu Ling asked again, "I've eaten it before, and this one is bought for you by the one behind."

Zhong Chutian was unhappy after hearing this: "What is 'the one behind'? Am I not worthy of having a name?"

Isn't a fox full of lies unworthy of a name?

Yu Ling bit her lower lip, angrily ignoring it, just continued to look at Zhong Chuyun and whispered: "I made these dumplings, and I just learned how to make the stuffing."

Zhong Chuyun couldn't help hooking his lips, and said, "Eat it when you get back."

"Yeah." Yu Ling nodded, and unconsciously squeezed the disposable chopsticks tightly with her fingers. After a few seconds of silence, she muttered again, "Sister Li said that dumplings stuffed with leeks and eggs are more delicious when steamed, but later That must be cooked."

After hearing this, Zhong Chuyun followed Yu Ling's rant and asked casually, "Why don't you steam it?"

"What are you doing?" Zhong Chutian gritted his teeth, "I want dumplings! How dry are you eating steamed dumplings!"

"Chives and eggs are full of moisture."

"I want dumplings!"

"But leeks and eggs are already full of water, and they will be very thin when boiled. I have eaten both kinds, and steamed ones are indeed more delicious!"

"I don't care, I want dumplings!"

Yu Ling found that the fox was unreasonable at all, so she had to shut her mouth for a while, and looked out the window in aggrieved manner.

Zhong Chuyun thought for a while and said, "Then try steaming next time."

"Yeah!" Yu Ling nodded happily after hearing this.

Zhong Chutian was dissatisfied and said, "Sister, turn your elbows outward!"

Zhong Chuyun: "How old are you?"

Zhong Chutian: "..."

Hearing what Zhong Chuyun said, Yu Ling quickly turned her head and gave Zhong Chutian a look, with the four characters "satisfied" written all over her face.

Zhong Chutian rolled his eyes, let out a sigh of relief, and didn't speak any more.

The car drove halfway, and Zhong Chutian got off first.

There was one less person who could breathe in the small space, which made the already embarrassing atmosphere even more embarrassing.

This kind of solitude made Yu Ling so guilty that she didn't know where to look with her eyes. The long eyelashes were like a small fan, and as the eyes blinked,

Not long after, the surrounding scenery gradually became familiar, and the street that she had left far behind once again came into her eyes.

Driving from the dumpling shop back to the underground garage of the community was not enough for her to start getting motion sickness.

Yu Ling thought the city was huge and she had already traveled a long way, but in reality it was all an illusion.

It's just that the expected reproach never came. She followed Zhong Chuyun closely as she did when she first arrived, and took the elevator up to the familiar fifth floor.

In the narrow corridor, the sensor light that should have been broken suddenly lit up.

Yu Ling looked up subconsciously, and didn't dare to ask any more questions, but followed Zhong Chuyun into the small room.

Yu Ling looked down, the cotton mops on the ground were still the ones she was wearing before she left.

She silently changed her slippers, closed the door behind her back, and followed Zhong Chuyun into the bedroom on tiptoe.

She thought her little floor bunk should be put away.

She thought that Zhong Chuyun would probably get a new vase to hold her in.

But the moment she entered the room, she saw a very strange new bed.

It was a bunk bed, the stairs were on the far right, and there were a few short drawers under the bottom layer. The upper and lower layers were covered with clean sheets and thick quilts.

And the pajamas she didn't take away were placed on the pillow on the upper bunk at this moment.

Did the bad fox buy it for her?

Holding the dumpling in her hand, Yu Ling looked at Zhong Chuyun in a moment of bewilderment.

Zhong Chuyun walked to the edge of the bed and sat down, and lightly touched the drawer under the bed with his ankle: "From now on, all your things will be put here, and you can sleep on it."

"I..." Yu Ling opened her mouth, but couldn't speak.

"What you want and what you don't want, you can just say it." Zhong Chuyun said, sighing softly, "Since I brought you out of the Mu clan, I won't ignore you."

Yu Ling bit her lip and said, "I don't want to marry..."

She said, lowering her eyebrows.

After a few seconds of silence, she heard a reply.

"I won't force you."

That voice, like light smoke, was as gentle as the person in her dream.
