Accidentally Married A Fox God – The Sovereign Lord Spoils His Wife Chapter 102 Why Are You Upset?
At first, Li irong outright rejected this ridiculous idea, but then she rembered that upon her departure from the marketplace, Snowball had conveniently disappeared. "Nature called", was what he told her at that ti.
"Tell all you know." Li irong’s clear peach-blossom eyes had gained a sharp glint. Her usually calm and unguarded deanour changed into a person who’s clearly on edge.
Bao Li didn’t need a second invitation to speak. The gossipy chef excitedly recounted the tale she was told by her neighbour who worked as a part-tir in a restaurant at the ti the incident took place.
When Li irong departed the market, her Fox Spirit returned to the chattering crowd’s location. Without making a sound, the little cub covered the whole block with a sea of raging flas. Surprisingly, the fire projected did not cause any burns or serious harm. The Fox’s control over the flas reached an unprecedented level. He honed his skills to the point of restraining the destructive elent and only igniting the disciples’ clothes until they lted to ashes along with all their hairs, burnt to a crisp. The crowd cowered in fright and sha, covering their private areas. Oh, the nearby shops were also heavily damaged, but nobody bothered to care about those minor details.
The gossip relating to the event focused on Li irong’s savage and unruly ways of harming her own fellow sect mbers. The Fox Spirit’s intimidating prowess was considered as Li irong’s underhanded thods of sending her little Spirit Beast to do the dirty work for her. No one considered a one-tailed Fox Spirit to be able to control his spiritual powers to this extent. Surely, it was all an act. Now, instead of a being good for nothing furnace, Li irong’s reputation had changed to an evil woman with hidden powers. A vicious tigress pretending to be a pig!
Once Bao Li finished narrating the event, she let out a delighted snicker. "Now, about a quarter of our sect mbers turned from lofty, superior looking cultivators into bald monks! Haha!"
Li irong didn’t share in her friend’s amusent. Her small, pouty lips stretched in a thin line and she imdiately shot a pointed look to Snowball.
The unsaid question was hanging thickly in the air. Are the rumours true?
Being scrutinized by her Ladyship caused Bai Yu to shift uncomfortably on top of the stool, wiggling his little paws left and right. He was too busy thinking how to save his own hide than to care about propriety anymore!
What was he supposed to say? If he said he didn’t do it, he’d only be telling the truth! But most likely, his Lord was responsible for the act. Was he supposed to take the bla?
In his heart, Bai Yu blad Bai Qingyue for this predicant. What kind of task was this?! Was his Sire’s behaviour reverting back to his youthful days when he used to turn the clan upside down with his trickery?!
Bai Yu couldn’t even count the number of tis he fell for his Bai Qingyue’s traps when the Lord was but a young cub...
He stupidly thought that in the last few thousand years after his Lord had finally reached maturity that his personality had changed for the better. The Fox Lord grew all the more reserved, spending the majority of his ti in solitude and handling all manners relating to the clan and his godly domain in an orderly and collective fashion. The air of superiority belonging to a natural born leader naturally exuded from him.
But who was ever able to tell with foxes if they were only pretending? Clearly, his thods remained the sa!
Finding himself unjustly accused, Bai Yu could only attempt to lessen the damage. With his droopy ears, he averted his eyes, staring at his own paws "guiltily".
"Master, it’s not as bad as the rumours say it was..."
Li irong crossed her arms together and tapped her foot on the floor. "Oh. So now you finally decided to tell the truth."
Bao Li quickly sealed her lips shut. She never heard Li irong sound so upset before. "I’ll give both of you a little bit of privacy. I think my sheets had dried up by now..." she quietly said, offering a reasonable excuse as she left the room.
Bai Yu was filled with complaints. It was so unfair! He was being blad for sothing he didn’t even do!
Look how loyal I am, Sire. I’m covering for you!
"I’m sorry for burning the people in the marketplace." "Snowball" pitifully apologised.
It was dayti outside and yet the bedroom was shrouded with gloom. The shawls covering the small window concealed their presence from prying eyes. Bai Yu kind of hoped for the lady Bao Li to return, the interrogation room seed a lot more pleasant with her around.
Li irong’s stance didn’t change. Her delicate brows were knitted in a frown and her eyes darkened in anger, matching the charcoal colour of her long, flowy hair.
"I’m not upset because of what you did." Her tone was sharp and crisp.
The seasoned warrior, Bai Yu was not easily intimidated, but this was her Ladyship he was speaking to! With one word out of her mouth, he’d be banished out of the clan! How was he going to nd this relationship and prove his loyalty to the future matron later on? His Sire placed him in a big pile of trouble!
"Then, why are you upset?" Snowball swallowed his saliva and asked, huddling into himself.
At this point, Li irong wasn’t willing to back down. She waited all this while for Snowball to co clean about everything. He was her family now, so naturally, she would be more forgiving towards him than to others, however, his deceits only kept accumulating!
Her fair, slender hand reached to grasp the cloth on top of her neck, rembering the previous day. She wore an extra shirt with a high collar underneath her outer robe, hiding the bluish marks upon her skin
"I’m angry because you keep lying to !" Li irong bristled.
"..." Now, what was he supposed to say?!
I’m a warrior, not a politician! Bai Yu thought to himself. He was not cut out for this task!
This was a terrible day for him. First, he was tortured. Then, he was demoted. Eventually, he was forced to change into a cub and go undercover. Now, he was being admonished for sothing he didn’t even do. He should have never accepted the second in command position!
anwhile, the cause of all this ss was probably lazily lounging in so fancy hall, enjoying himself.
Humph! I might be taking the bla for you right now, but your actions will bite your frilly white ass, one day! Bai Yu silently cursed his Lord.
