The next day, Li Yundong mustered the courage of a martyr ready for execution and prepared to head to school. But unexpectedly, the little fox heard him preparing to leave and immediately rushed out of the bedroom, grabbing the corner of Li Yundong's shirt: "I'm coming too."

Li Yundong was caught between laughter and tears. "My dear little ancestor, I finally gathered the courage to go to class, and you want to follow? If someone sees us, won't I be laughed to death? Let go, let go! If you cause another scene, I won't even have the courage to go today."

Su Chan pouted, speaking in a huff, "Who dares laugh at you? I'll teach them a lesson!"

Li Yundong was both annoyed and amused. He patted Su Chan's head. "Be a good girl and wait at home. I'll bring you back something to eat after class. Hmm, your braid isn't messy at all from sleeping?"

Su Chan tilted her head, dodging Li Yundong's hand, and stubbornly clutched the corner of his shirt: "No, I must go with you."

Even Su Chan couldn't quite articulate why she insisted on sticking close to this fellow. Perhaps in this unfamiliar secular world, the only person she knew and recognized was this guy who had swallowed her Human Essence Golden Elixir.

The deeply insecure little fox absolutely refused to let go, shaking her head no matter how much Li Yundong tried to persuade her.

Li Yundong sighed helplessly, let out a boisterous shout like a true bachelor: "Fine! Who cares what anyone thinks! Chase your girl... cough, walk your own path, and leave others with no girl to chase... cough cough, leave others with no path to tread! Right, let's set off, straight to the execution ground!"

On the way to school, Li Yundong saw many pairs of students walking from their rented accommodations outside toward the campus—the girls clinging delicately to the boys, who held them close. Of course, occasionally, he also spotted boys acting delicately clingy.

Li Yundong desperately wished Su Chan could loop her arm through his, and he could wrap an arm around her waist, but he was afraid his exposed lecherous nature would scare the little girl away.

Li Yundong kept glancing back at Su Chan along the way. He saw her following closely behind him, step for step, her hand still lightly tugging at the corner of his shirt, like a child who never wanted to grow up.

This sight made Li Yundong burst into silent laughter.

Upon entering the school gates, Li Yundong and the little fox immediately drew many eyes. The gazes of the boys on the little fox were filled with astonishment, and when they occasionally glanced at the unremarkable Li Yundong, their faces were filled with jealousy. In their hearts, they all cursed: How could such a beauty be with a guy like this? What makes this guy better than me? Damn it, shameful, contemptible!

The girls’ eyes only flickered over the little fox
