The daily life of the crew of "Beasts".

Chapter 303: The Unrequited Jealousy Journey

in the afternoon.

"Blue circle, we're back!"

The door slammed open, and Si Bu Xiang stepped inside with light steps, followed by Bai Jie and Qi Shi Qi, whose small bodies squeezed in.

"Plum Blossom, eh?! Who are you?" He looked up at her cheerfully but froze on the spot!

Hua Jie and Bi Xie, who were lying face down on the sofa, straightened up and looked at each other, their eyes even more daring than the shoes, looking a little embarrassed!

"Ah, you're back. Dinner is ready." The three beasts of the Evil-Repelling Sword Path had lost some of their shyness from the praise.

The Four-Faced Beast stared at him with wide eyes, then turned its head to look at the Pepper, who was calmly and curiously observing them. Instantly, alarm bells went off in its mind!

Something's wrong! Little Plum Blossom's mood is off!

"Little Plum Blossom, who is he?"

"He's a friend I'm going to teach, his name is Huajiao." Bixie tilted his head and raised a paw to introduce him.

Huajiao smiled politely and said, "Hello."

"Little Plum Blossom, how come you can make friends on your own?"

The four-legged creature stopped wagging its tail, its fur tightened, and it seemed to stand on end!

The atmosphere suddenly became quiet!

Bixie's eyes twitched, its claws clenched and unclenched, while Huajiao stood to the side, seemingly wanting to say something but then stopping.

Seventy-Seven looked up, bewildered. "Um... Four-Faced Beast. Is it not a good idea to say it like this?"

"Ah! Oh! I'm sorry, Little Plum Blossom, that's not what I meant! I meant how could he befriend you, ah, no, that's not right either? I... um... ah..."

Bai Jie silently covered his face as he listened to Si Bu Xiang's incoherent ramblings, while secretly glancing at Hua Jiao through his fingers.

—Judging from this situation, it seems like a rival for love has appeared.

"Alright, I know. You don't need to say anything more." Bixie interrupted Sibuxiang with a straight face, then looked at Huajiao with a relaxed expression.

"Please forgive him, that's just how he is. He speaks without thinking. But he doesn't really mean any harm."

The four-legged creature felt as if it had been shot in the heart, and at that moment it wished it could slap itself!

He first looked towards the sofa, and Huajiao nodded politely, indicating that he understood.

On the other side, Bixie softened his tone towards outsiders almost like never before, and even showed a hint of apology!

The four-legged creature was utterly terrified, staggering back a step with its face turning a ghastly purple!

Bixie turned around and was startled, instinctively straightening up. "What's wrong with you, Sibuxiang?"

Bai Jie, to ease the increasingly delicate situation, decisively pulled the clueless Qi Shiqi away, leaving behind the Four-Unlikes with complex emotions of grief, indignation, and gratitude.

"Huh? Why are we leaving?" Seventy-Seven asked, looking bewildered as he was being pulled along.

"Oh dear, let's just watch the show from the sidelines. It's too awkward to be there in person."

Bai Jie explained in a low voice.

The two beasts arrived at the bedroom door. The smooth wooden door was ajar, and a pair of large, emerald-green eyes looked up and met their gazes as they looked down.

Bai Jie silently took off his clothes and opened the door, and sure enough, it was Tian Lu inside.

"Tianlu, I thought you had gone out."

"Hehe, it's too awkward outside. You guys come in quickly."

Tianlu grinned sheepishly and pulled the two Pixiu into the house. Then, the number of eyes peeking through the crack in the door increased from one pair to three pairs.

"Hey Tianlu, aren't you going out for a stroll?" Baijie asked in a low voice, sandwiched between the two beasts.

"Huh? How am I supposed to manage this?" Tianlu asked, bewildered, from the top.

Bai Jie glanced at him in surprise.

—Wait a minute, you didn't react like this when I tried to bring Bixie and He Sibuxiang together.

"Hmm? Tianlu was against the Four Unlikes from the beginning, so why write them together?" Seventy-Seven asked, lying on the floor, voicing Baijie's thoughts.

"How did you know?" Tianlu asked, looking down in surprise.

Bai Jie's heart skipped a beat, and he abruptly covered Qi Qi's open mouth.

"Ugh! Ugh?"

"Hmm? Bai Jie, it was you who said that again, wasn't it...?"

A shadow fell from above, and Bai Jie grinned, his voice weak.

"If I say it wasn't me, would you believe me?"

"Don't believe me? Take this!"

Chaos erupted within seconds of the three Pixiu gathering inside the house.

Meanwhile, in the living room.

Bixie turned to look at Huajiao, then turned back, his amber pupils reflecting the grimace of the Sibuxiang.

"Hello, my name is Four-Unlikes." The fair-skinned Qilin didn't seem very enthusiastic.

"The Four Unlikes"

He suddenly called out to the other, and the peppercorn, which had just opened its mouth, immediately closed its eyes and scanned between the two beasts.

"Huh? Ah! What's wrong, Little Plum Blossom?" Si Bu Xiang was stunned for a moment, then his heart tightened.

Bixie jumped off the sofa and slowly paced around him in circles.

Tiny claws landed repeatedly on the smooth floor, spitting out saliva from its dissimilar mouth, and subconsciously following the other's footsteps, turning its body to maintain a face-to-face relationship.

Bixie suddenly stopped, then raised his face, his eyelids half-closed, and stared at him with a glint in his eyes.

"Four-Faced Beasts. You're not jealous because my relationship with Sichuan Peppercorn got along too quickly, are you?"

“Eh, eh?!”

The four were greatly alarmed!

When did Little Plum Blossom become so perceptive?!

"Little Plum Blossom, you've misunderstood. It's not because of that. It really isn't!"

Bixie squinted at him.

"really?"

"Yes, of course it's true!" The Four-Faced Beast's eyes reflexively darted to the side, then it blinked hard and stared back.

Huajiao glanced at him, then at Bixie, and unconsciously placed a paw on his chin, muttering something under his breath.

"So you're a couple?"

The ears of the four-legged beast and the evil spirit twitched simultaneously. Although the sound was very soft, the beast's hearing still clearly picked up the words!

Almost simultaneously, the two beasts turned their heads sharply and roared in unison!

Bixie: "It's not what you think!"

Four-Faced Beast: "Don't talk nonsense!"

The three Pixiu that were playing around inside were startled. Tianlu pinned down Baijie and Qishiqi with one claw each, and the three beasts looked at the doorway in confusion.

outside.

Huajiao shook his head, and after the buzzing in his ears subsided a bit, he silently looked at the two beasts.

The Four Unfavorable Elements and the Evil-Repelling Talisman also fell silent.

—It seems like… my reaction was too strong?

"—Crunch."

The bedroom door opened, and three little heads peeked out, looking at us with curiosity.

The atmosphere became even more awkward, as if the air itself was about to freeze.

"Uh... cough cough. Sorry, I misunderstood. I shouldn't have made wild guesses about your relationship."

After a long silence, Huajiao broke the silence by coughing twice.

The four creatures, not to be trifled with, were awkwardly at a loss for words.

"Um... the food seems to be ready, shall we eat first?"

The bridal sedan chair's gaze drifted to the half-open kitchen door, where an enticing aroma wafted out, making him swallow hard.

"Okay. I'll go get the food." Bixie turned his gaze to the other side and immediately hurried to the kitchen.

Shortly after.

Si Bu Xiang sat expressionlessly at the dining table, silently munching on his cloud dew.

The table was laden with dishes, and Huajiao kept praising them as he ate. Bixie coughed and turned away to serve food to his brother.

During this process, the Four-No-Face's rejection of Yunlu became increasingly forceful!

He looked around at the other Pixiu statues on the table.

Seventy-seven held her bowl of celestial dew, eating while occasionally glancing up at Bixie and Huajiao.

Tianlu ignored everything else and focused intently on eating.

Bai Jie was the same as him.

"Well, it's not that exaggerated."

"No, it's really amazing."

"As the two earliest divine beasts in the world, you must have seen a lot of the world, but your brother was still impressed by your skills, which says a lot."

Facing the somewhat embarrassed Pixie, Huajiao smiled and gestured towards Tianlu Baijie.

Tianlu glanced up at him, grunted twice, and then buried his head in his food.

He remained unmoved by all explanations.

Si Bu Xiang's eyes lit up.

...Little Sun doesn't seem to like this fox either. Little Sun is on my side! That's great!

"Little Sun," he called out, moved.

"what?"

Bai Jie took off the Bluetooth earphones from her ears and turned to look at him in confusion.

"What?"

Four-Unlikes: "..."

—I forgot that Little Sun is addicted to the internet and wears headphones while eating, except when he's fighting with Blue Circle for food! So embarrassing!!

……

After dinner, having spent half the day at the flower shop, I didn't have the nerve to linger any longer and quickly said goodbye and left.

Si Bu Xiang watched the gate close, recalling the afternoon's events.

The Pixiu was pleased to be praised, and the other three Pixiu also felt no ill will towards the other party.

When he compared his own words to the little Pixiu in his home, the Pixiu at home turned black with anger and speechlessness, and even silenced him!

The Four-Faced Beast instantly broke out in a cold sweat, feeling an intense sense of crisis!

No, this can't go on!

He struggled for a while, and finally turned to the most reliable person in the family, Bai Jie.

"Little Sun".

"Huh?" Bai Jie, who was doing his homework, turned around suspiciously.

"I want to improve my emotional intelligence and learn how to talk to make you happy." Si Bu Xiang stared earnestly into his younger brother's eyes.

The other person's azure pupils dilated, then returned to normal, and then... revealed a look that seemed to say, "Are you kidding me?"

"Um... well... Four-Faced Beast. Your emotional intelligence is already so high that there's no room for improvement."

Low emotional intelligence: That's just how you are.

High emotional intelligence: There's no room for improvement.

The determination that Si Bu Xiang had just established crumbled, and the serious expression on his face immediately fell.

"Oh... Sun, why are you like this? What am I supposed to do?"

"Hmm... then why don't you try a different approach, like acting cute? I really like the way you look when you're small."

"Uh……"

Si Bu Xiang looked at the hint of expectation in Bai Jie's eyes.

He felt that whether this trick would work on plum blossoms was another matter, but it would definitely work especially well on little suns.

"Little Sun...you actually wanted to see it yourself, didn't you...?"

"No way! I'm just giving you advice..."
