The Female Fox Spirit Gets Spoiled by the Big Shot-Chapter 227: How It Feels to Have Created a Rival in Love for Yourself

The Little Cub's bright, innocent eyes suddenly filled with disdain upon hearing Pei Chiyao's words.

He rolled his eyes and made cooing sounds, stretching out his hands to touch Zhi Yao.

But Pei Chiyao wouldn't let him wake Zhi Yao. He quickly covered the Little Cub's mouth, instantly muffling his cool "yi-ya" sounds.

The Little Cub thought, "...I may not be human, but you're truly a dog."

Fortunately, Zhi Yi, who had been discussing matters with Ling Jue, had finished talking. She looked up and saw this scene, alarmed. She quickly walked to Pei Chiyao's side, raising her hands to take the child.

"Pei Chiyao, you can't do that. The child is still small. You might suffocate him like that."

Suffocate? Hah, as if he would.

Though Pei Chiyao inwardly scoffed, he still handed the Little Cub to Zhi Yi.

Like Zhi Yao, Zhi Yi's heart melted instantly upon seeing the Little Cub's innocent face.

Especially those eyes, identical to Zhi Yao's, which reminded her of what Zhi Yao looked like when she was just born.

She couldn't help but caress the Little Cub's soft cheeks, saying, "This child looks exactly like Zhi Yao when she was little!"

Ling Jue looked at the Little Cub with regret, "It's a pity he's not a girl."

Pei Chiyao also expressed his disappointment, "Indeed, it's a shame he's not a girl."

Zhi Yi thought, "...Their obsession with having a baby girl is remarkably consistent."

Ling Jue patted Pei Chiyao's shoulder and said, "Keep at it. The next one will surely be a girl."

Pei Chiyao didn't respond to that. Instead, he said, "I don't plan on having any more children."

He had always known that childbirth was a painful experience, but after witnessing it firsthand, Pei Chiyao felt that 'painful' didn't even begin to describe it.

His delicate little girl had endured such suffering.

Pei Chiyao couldn't bear the thought of Zhi Yao going through such an ordeal again.

Hearing this, Ling Jue was surprised but understood. "Good lad," he said.

Zhi Yi, upon hearing these words, glanced at Pei Chiyao, feeling comforted.

His love for Zhi Yao naturally made her, as a mother, feel gratified and happy for her daughter.

After coddling the Little Cub in her arms for a while, he grew sleepy.

Zhi Yi couldn't resist touching his remarkably textured horns and said, "We haven't given the baby a name yet. Have you thought of one?"

Pei Chiyao had forgotten. fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm

If Pei Chiyao didn't remember, Zhi Yao certainly wouldn't have.

He glanced at the clock on the wall. It was exactly 10:15.

"Let's call him Fifteen then."

Zhi Yi thought, "..."

Could this be any more careless?!

But Zhi Yi couldn't think of a better name at the moment. After all, she had to scour through the Book of Songs to find Zhi Yao's name.

She wasn't a scholarly fox either. Back then, to come up with Zhi Yao's name, she read until her eyes hurt. Finally, unable to bear it anymore, she resorted to methods similar to drawing lots.

For instance... randomly opening a page and pointing at a character.

Luckily, she pointed to the character 'Yao'.

Fortunately, it was 'Yao'. If she had pointed to characters like 'grass' or 'flower', names like Zhi Cao (Knowledge Grass) or Zhi Hua (Knowledge Flower) would have been unbearably awful.

Thinking about it this way, Zhi Yi suddenly felt that Fifteen wasn't so bad.

"Fifteen, not bad. It rolls off the tongue."

Pei Chiyao smiled, "He doesn't seem to have any objections either."

Of course, Fifteen had no objections. He was already too sleepy to open his eyes.

Yan Mu, who was nearby, eagerly came over. Looking at Fifteen in Zhi Yi's arms, she found him incredibly cute. "It's true! He looks exactly like Yao Yao! He's so adorable! Can... can I hold him?"

Yan Mu asked cautiously.

Zhi Yi nodded, "Of course, go ahead."

She extended her arms to pass Fifteen to Yan Mu.

Just as Yan Mu was about to take Fifteen, a paw swiftly swatted her hand away. The message was clear: she wasn't allowed to hold him.

The swat stung a bit, but he hadn't used his claws.

Yan Mu puffed up her cheeks and looked at Xie Qinzhou, "What are you doing, Xie Qinzhou!"

Xie Qinzhou raised his head haughtily, his meaning obvious.

But clearly, Yan Mu didn't understand. She raised her hands again to hold little Fifteen, but this time, before she could even stretch out her arms, Xie Qinzhou swatted her away again.

Xie Qinzhou bared his teeth at little Fifteen.

The sight amused Zhi Yi greatly.

As a fellow fox, she naturally understood Xie Qinzhou's intentions.

He was jealous.

It's well known that foxes have quite a temper and can be very possessive.

Xie Qinzhou had clearly claimed Yan Mu as his own and wouldn't allow her to touch anyone else.

Yan Mu, annoyed, grabbed Xie Qinzhou's fox head and ruffled it vigorously.

The atmosphere in the hospital room was full of joy and warmth.

...

Three days later, Zhi Yao was discharged.

The young girl recovered quickly, perhaps due to her youth and good health, or maybe because Pei Chiyao infused her with spiritual energy every day. Either way, Zhi Yao felt as if her body was exactly the same as before giving birth to Fifteen.

Zhi Yao adored little Fifteen. His horns felt particularly good to touch, much better than Pei Chiyao's, so Zhi Yao's favorite daily activity became stroking Fifteen's horns. With Fifteen around, she barely noticed Pei Chiyao anymore.

Even though Pei Chiyao hovered around her every day, Zhi Yao simply ignored him.

"Our little Fifteen is so cute, just as adorable as your Mother."

"I love little Fifteen the most. When will little Fifteen learn to call me Mother?"

In Zhi Yao's words, Fifteen was the cutest little baby in the whole world because he never cried or fussed.

He seemed to understand what they were saying from the moment he was born. For instance, right now, when Zhi Yao wanted to hear him call her Mother, he made some gurgling sounds from his throat. Although unclear, if one listened carefully, they could make out two syllables.

Zhi Yao was both surprised and delighted, "Are you calling me Mother?!"

She was so surprised she almost jumped up. Looking down, she met the little one's bright golden eyes once again.

Glistening with moisture, shrouded in a thin mist, he looked utterly pitiful yet endearing enough to melt Zhi Yao's heart.

This time, Zhi Yao simply couldn't resist any longer.

She abruptly pulled Fifteen's face close to her own and planted a kiss on his soft, delicate cheek, then couldn't help but give him several more quick pecks.

Pei Chiyao, who had been ignored and had witnessed the entire scene from the side, "..."

He felt so regretful! How did it feel like he had given birth to his own love rival?!
