Xiao Yue jumped up and down saying: "The chapter updates are less than 50%, just wait until midnight and you can read it!"

  Nothing, nothing at all, just curious.

  "Oh."

  Wen Ting saw him and thought he didn't seem to have anything else to say, so he lowered his head again and continued making notes in the book.

  Hú Qī was actually very curious, seeing Shǎo Zhǔ lower his head, he looked over at him with a puzzled expression, sizing up his profile.

  The future young master's wife is no trivial matter. That night, the young master mentioned a strange woman's name, even startling Lady Hu.

  The young master didn't have any close female fox friends in his daily life, but even so, the Fox Master's wife thought he would at least mention a familiar girl's name. However, she had never heard of the person he mentioned before. The young master didn't explain further at that time and simply explained the origin and family background of the little white fox, then returned to the palace on his own, leaving the Fox Master's wife surprised, puzzled, and went to ask others about it.

  Clouds sleep.

  After all, in the eyes of others, the young master and that little white fox had no intersection. If it weren't for him coincidentally being by the young master's side twice, he probably wouldn't even know who he was talking about.

  But Hu Qi thought about it and couldn't figure it out, so he couldn't help but ask again: "But if you've only seen her those two times, why did you choose that little white fox as your wife?"

  Wen Ting paused for a moment in her hands.

  The seven-tailed fox did not wait for the young master's response and began to analyze on her own: "Young Master, you've only seen that little white fox twice, both times from a distance while sitting in your carriage. You haven't even had a conversation with her, so it can't be said that you know each other. I don't know how clearly you can see things, but as a seven-tailed fox in the True Immortal Realm, from my position, I couldn't even make out what the little white fox looks like - all I've heard is that she supposedly has a red birthmark on her forehead, but no one knows what shape or size it is. At present, not to mention human form, we can't even see her in fox form clearly, nor do we know her personality or preferences. Luckily, I'm a bit worldly... But Young Master, why did you tell Fox Lady that you wanted to choose her as your fiancée? Could it be love at first sight?"

  Hu Qi was frank in nature, and the puzzled air in his words did not hide at all. When these words fell into Wen Ting's ears, they also made him slightly stunned. After a long time, he said unknowingly: "...... I remember her eyes."

  "...eyes?"

  Wen Ting did not immediately respond.

  He closed his eyes and immediately conjured up the small white fox's clear gaze in his mind.

  He indeed didn't get a clear look at her appearance, but those clean eyes had been etched in his mind and kept surfacing, he couldn't even explain what emotions he was feeling, only knowing that he had never felt this way about anyone else before, always feeling... uneasy.

  Reopening her eyes, Ting Xiang explained: "My mother wants to settle these matters as soon as possible, naturally it's for my own good. I'm going through the Spiritual Fairy Tribulation, which isn't particularly perilous, at most it'll just take some more time. Up until now, everything has been smooth sailing, and I haven't done anything to disappoint Father and Mother, so they probably didn't think... that this tribulation might also be one from which I won't return."

  Hú Qī was shocked.

  Wen Ting didn't stop, but continued to speak: "I'm now in a critical moment, I should do my best, but things in the world are unpredictable, and there might be unexpected events. If I don't return, it will only drag down the person who has promised to marry me... I originally planned to wait for a few more days before making plans, but coincidentally met her..."

  Wen Ting thought for a moment, but then the other's beautiful eyes floated into his mind again. He continued to say: "I've also asked Huo Guan about her recently, and heard that she has no one to rely on, is often bullied by the surrounding foxes, and doesn't have many friends... If I choose her as my fiancée, it would be a way of protecting her for now. The other foxes nearby may know that she's an orphan, but since she'll be my future wife, they'll still pay attention to her and won't look down on her. If I were to die in the future, my parents will probably take care of her more, which would be better than before. And if I can return... this kind of thing requires mutual affection; if at that time she's not willing to have an engagement with me, we can dissolve it then."

  Hu Qi had been stunned into silence, he never thought that the young master at this age would think so deeply and complicatedly, after a long time, he finally said: "Young Master... is indeed kind-hearted."

  A faint blush appeared on Ting's face, but she said softly: "...it's not like that. The human heart is hard to fathom, and I don't know if what I'm doing is right or wrong. I just hope it won't make her feel awkward instead."

  "It must have been destined."

  Hú Qī smiled and comforted him.

  It was already late, Hu Qi put away the tea and snacks, then quietly bid farewell and left.

  After Hu Qi left, Wen Ting sat quietly in his seat for a moment before continuing to look at what he was looking at earlier. However, when he saw the words on it, he looked slightly dazed.

  What I saw earlier was indeed the result of the previous assessment conference.

  It has been over a month since the assessment conference, and after the hard work of the fox officials in Qingqiu City, the results were finally released recently. This year's Bai Yue had thousands of little foxes, they sorted out the observation results and assessment results for many days, and finally sorted out 50 outstanding lists to give him, and then let the young master himself choose, five in one, and selected the last ten people as companions.

  The process can be said to be cruel, and now after layers of screening, those who can reach his hands are all among the best of their peers, and it's not far from the disciples who entered the Fox Palace later. Wen Ting naturally looked carefully, and at this time, the name written on the record in his hand was... "Xi Yuan".

  Wen Ting had previously inquired about Yun Mian's news from Hu Guan, and had already learned the name "Xue Yuan", knowing that he was the red fox who had bullied Yun Mian twice. Now seeing him here was unexpected.

  Among the thousands of foxes, Xī Yuán's overall assessment ranking was first, with almost no mistakes, except that his personality was somewhat unfavorable. Accompanying the young master to read and cultivate one's temperament and character is also extremely important. The main fox officials responsible for teaching and examination did not know about Yún Méng's affairs, but after scratching their ears and cheeks, entangled for half a day, they finally wrote down his name, mostly because they couldn't bear to give up this talented individual, wanting him to see the luck he had with the young master.

  Looking at Xueyuan's name, Wen Ting also had some hesitation. Xueyuan was young and vigorous, but apart from being arrogant, he seemed to have no bad words or deeds on ordinary days, and his natural talent and diligence made him the top student, far surpassing the second place by a large margin... If he didn't choose Xueyuan, it would seem unfair, but if he chose Xueyuan, it would also seem unjust... He was deciding life and death here today, and later they would be separated by vast waters...

  Wen Ting struggled in his heart, flipping through the remaining name list again and again, not knowing how to be more fair. After deliberating for half a day, he finally put a red dot under Xue Yuan's name, and then directly according to the order of scores, he checked off the top ten names one by one, and finally put away the name list, solemnly placing it aside.

  This register was taken away by the chief Hu official on the second day, and after being copied and sorted out, it was verified and distributed to various places in several days.

  On the day the list was announced, Yunmian arrived at the agreed mountain top empty space early in the morning, which was where they had previously worshiped the moon.

  The update speed is the fastest, hurry up and come!
