109: Chapter 109 Being a Dog?
"This, is this the spiritual compensation you wanted?"
By Ring City Lake.
A group of four people were eating fish hot pot.
Why is it Ring City Lake every time we go out?
It’s just that in Dongcheng City, the only place worth mentioning is Ring City Lake.
"Well, what else?"
Tang Xiaotang picked up a piece of white, tender fish belly meat while saying:
"Brother, we’d love to go eat seafood platters, but Brother, you don't have any money~
Isn’t this saving you money!"
"Thank you, Brother."
Shen Yue immediately chimed in. This delicacy truly comforted her wounded soul.
"Brother, this is my first time eating this kind of hot pot. I heard the hot pot in Cheng Du is delicious, but I’ve never had it.
When can we visit Cheng Du?"
The young girl’s heart was filled with longing for delicious food.
"Brother, you are not allowed to go to Cheng Du."
Jiang Qin immediately warned upon hearing the place name.
"What’s wrong with Cheng Du?"
Fang Xun was confused.
"Our Qin Qin is the most considerate."
Tang Xiaotang glanced at Fang Xun’s face and voiced her agreement.
Fang Xun: "?"
"Mm."
Tang Xiaotang looked at Fang Xun's confused expression and casually found another reason:
"Even the Great Sage would have to make eight hundred phone calls to get out if he went to Cheng Du."
"Are you two sure it’s because of this?"
Fang Xun felt like there was something hidden in their words, but he couldn't pinpoint it.
"Hasn't Brother received spam calls from Cheng Du before?"
"I have, but lately, most of them are from Hu Hai."
Fang Xun nodded. It really seemed to be the case.
What era is this, still making spam calls? Truly despicable people.
"Mine are all from Funan."
Shen Yue raised her hand.
"Yes, yes, I have too."
Fang Xun nodded again.
"There is already an invisible, thick barrier between us."
Tang Xiaotang shook her head while holding her phone, then glanced at Jiang Qin’s call log.
"You are all heretics. Our spam calls are all from Cheng Du."
"What kind of barrier is that?"
Fang Xun felt too speechless to complain.
While speaking, Fang Xun fiercely scooped a large piece of fish into his own bowl.
Boneless fish slices were just the best!
Just then, a voice rang out.
"Brother, you are all here."
"Hey, Lian Lian, we were just looking for you! You weren't answering your phone!"
Tang Xiaotang waved her hand. She had sent a message to Qi Lian early on, planning to feast on Fang Xun heavily.
But that girl only replied after they were about to start eating.
"I’m sorry, Xiao Tang. The signal where I was just now wasn't very good."
Qi Lian was very apologetic. Although she had pulled network cables underground, the signal base stations really hadn't been built yet.
"Oh, it's fine, it's fine, come and eat, come and eat!"
Listening to Tang Xiaotang, Qi Lian sat down very obediently, pulled up a stool, and sat right between Fang Xun and her.
Tang Xiaotang: "?"
But in front of her classmates, Tang Xiaotang couldn't raise any objections.
Otherwise, it would look like she and Fang Xun were the same.
However, now she could no longer have Fang Xun on her left and Jiang Qin on her right.
The Emperor’s days had suddenly dwindled to just the ordinary ones.
But these were minor details; everyone was eating very happily.
When this small banquet was about to break up, Qi Lian secretly spoke to Fang Xun.
"Brother, after dinner, can we go for a walk together?"
Of course, saying it was secretly was just slightly turning her head to the side.
Shen Yue naturally ignored this and continued to devour her food fiercely.
This fish was truly delicious.
Tang Xiaotang and Jiang Qin’s expressions changed slightly, but the change quickly subsided.
"Brother, if you are going shopping with Lian Lian later, remember to buy some snacks to bring back. I want some."
Jiang Qin silently asserted her rights as a sister.
However, no matter how one looked at it, it carried the flavor of a jilted loser.
"I want some too."
Tang Xiaotang raised her hand.
"Aren't you staying at my place tonight?"
Fang Xun looked at Tang Xiaotang. Did this girl intend to use the opportunity to have something happen between her and Jiang Qin?
As an older brother, he definitely had to teach a good lesson to anyone who laid hands on his sister.
"So what?"
Tang Xiaotang let out a disdainful sound.
"Are you planning to come home late?"
"Mind your own business!"
Fang Xun's eyes widened. How did she know the rules of the Fang family!?
"Then will Qin Qin mind?"
Tang Xiaotang wrapped her arms around Jiang Qin's waist.
"Ah, Xiao Tang, your hands are all oily!"
Jiang Qin was shocked.
Amidst the slight squabble, everyone had their own plans.
Shen Yue, Jiang Qin, and Tang Xiaotang would go home first.
While Fang Xun and Qi Lian went out shopping.
When they parted, Jiang Qin kept glancing at Fang Xun and Qi Lian.
They weren't holding hands; their relationship must be very innocent, right?
Such self-deceiving nonsense could only be believed when deceiving oneself.
"Let’s go, Qin Qin. Brother is playing his own game; we’ll play ours."
Tang Xiaotang quietly slipped her hand onto Jiang Qin's waist.
"Okay."
The three sisters, each lost in their own thoughts, happily headed home.
On the other side, Fang Xun and Qi Lian went shopping together.
"Why did you suddenly want to come out and play? Are you ready to show me your true form?"
Fang Xun felt the cool breeze coming from the lake and asked very eagerly.
After seeing Qi Lian's pink tentacles last time, he had been thinking about it constantly.
Of course, he wasn't a pervert; he just held an extremely high enthusiasm for novel things.
To reiterate, he was not a pervert.
"No, Brother."
Qi Lian pouted slightly. Qi Lian had some minor emotions about Fang Xun only showing extreme enthusiasm for her body.
Although this was good, if a partner was only interested in one's body, it could be quite upsetting.
"Then what is it?"
Fang Xun was curious.
"We want to talk to you."
Qi Lian looked at Fang Xun’s face.
The cool breeze blowing from the center of the lake lifted the stray hairs on Fang Xun’s forehead, giving the gloomy youth a touch of sunny aura.
"You guys?"
Fang Xun immediately realized that when Qi Lian said 'we,' she meant the Disaster Beast.
But what was there for him to discuss with the Disaster Beast?
"Brother, don't be surprised. After all, Brother is too strong. If we don't talk to Brother, we won't be able to survive anymore."
Qi Lian showed a hint of distress.
Although she didn't care much about the fate of her kin, if they all died out, it would indeed be a bad thing.
If all the kin she was familiar with were gone, it would truly be saddening.
Although Fang Xun currently had no intention of wiping them out, what if he suddenly decided to?
For example, just a few hours ago, Jiu He almost injured Jiang Qin.
"I'm that awesome now?"
Fang Xun was shocked.
"Brother is just very strong."
Qi Lian nodded.
"So, what are you prepared to discuss with me?"
Fang Xun was curious.
Humans and Disaster Beast had always been mortal enemies.
There was never anything to discuss.
Although Fang Xun didn't want Qi Lian to run into any trouble, he didn't have a good impression of the other Disaster Beast.
His memory of the Disaster Beast was always those tragic incidents, one after another.
If possible, Fang Xun wouldn't mind beating them all to death with one blow.
"Um..."
Qi Lian thought for a moment and found a term that wasn't very polite but fit perfectly.
"Brother, we want to sign a treaty with you?"
"Still want to sign a treaty?"
Fang Xun frowned.
Qi Lian originally wanted to say that specific word, but after thinking about it, she changed her phrasing.
"About us becoming Brother's dogs."
