I ran after it, “Snow fox~ Wait for me! Why are you running? I’m not going to eat you~! Hey!” I caught up and carefully held it in my arms, “Don’t move, be good.” I tore a strip from my clothing, dampened it with the water I’d collected, and gently treated its wound, then used a dry cloth to bandage it.
I held it in my hands, “(^__^) Hehe… Mission accomplished!” I looked at my ‘masterpiece’, “Alright, we’re both unlucky today, might as well accept it. We’re buddies now! Stick with me, and I promise good food and sleep! From now on, I’m your master! ~(≧▽≦)/~”
Somehow, I thought I saw the snow fox give me an exasperated and helpless look.
I carried it for a long time without seeing any tent， exhausted, I sat down under a tree without lighting a fire. The fox blinked its beautiful eyes at me, and I stroked its soft, snow-white fur.
“Little snow fox, do you bathe every day? You’re so clean!” I asked, admiring its pure white coat. “Oh, are you male or female?” I answered myself, “I knew you’re female! Haha~ You can be my daughter; I don’t mind.”
After talking to myself for a while, I noticed a strange golden magical mark on the snow fox’s head. I pointed at the mark and asked, “Is this your headpiece? But foxes don’t usually wear those, right? Or are you special?”
The snow fox gave me a ‘you’re so boring’ look, which I ignored, and then we both fell into a deep sleep.
After some time, I heard voices:
“Hanr~ Hanr~”
“Daughter~ Daughter~”
“Treasure~ Treasure~”
I thought I was dreaming until the little thing in my arms moved, waking me up. I opened my eyes to see Xiao Chen Yue. She tightly hugged me, exclaiming, “Treasure! I thought something happened to you!… Ah, it hurts!”
I realized the snow fox had disappeared, and Xiao Chen Yue’s hand now had a bloody claw mark.
Xiao Chen Yue frowned, looking at the fox beside him with a hostile gaze. “Where did this little thing come from? Why is it so fierce?”
