Chapter 963 “The Suicidal Fox Family (4)”

“So it’s the Eagle Clan’s chief. Forgive my clumsiness in not recognizing you. Are you here for my father?”

“No, no, no, I merely wanted to ask about the jade pendant hanging around your waist. May I know where you got it?” Yu Xiang continues to smile widely in the face, which indirectly alarmed the fox lady and turning her eyes into that of vigilance.

“This is my pendant.”

“Oh? Can it be… you don’t know the meaning of a silver fox for us demons?” Flicking his smile in that of a smirk now, it’s difficult to read what this eagle chief really wanted from the other side. “Silver means nobility, a fox means royalty, and together it can only mean the royal family. Aside from the king, princess and prince respectively, I don’t know anyone else who also holds a jade pendant with that insignia. Don’t get me wrong, I’m only curious and find it a bit strange.”

Hu Mei was now on the defensive. If she had known this little ornament would cause her this sort of trouble then she would never bring it along.

“Uncle Yu, who says this jade pendant is not mine just because it has a silver fox as its insignia? Where have you ever heard one is not allowed to wear such an item? I am loyal to the king, that’s why I carved this pendant using his image. It’s not surprising that you would mistake it as so.”

“Is it now? That’s a pity…” Yu Xiang suddenly makes a disappointed face, “Not long ago His Majesty encountered danger outside and happened to be rescued by a passing woman. Due to his injured state and fuzzy mindset, the king couldn’t remember the lady’s face and only knew he gave her his jade pendant as thanks. And here I thought you were His Majesty’s benefactor….”

Looking at how the eagle man could lie through his teeth without so much as blinking an eye, those guards following from behind were completely gobsmacked by the amazing acting skill. However, this did have the perfect effect of hooking this fox onto the bait. There’s light beaming out of those foxy eyes and her hand were clenching hard onto the pendant.

After a brief moment of musing, Hu Mei began to make her move by acting uncomfortably.

“Dear niece, no need to be shy in front of your uncle here. Go ahead and speak your mind, after all, me and your father are old acquaintances.” Yu Xiang’s expression appeared very kind as if he’s really taken Hu Mei as his niece.

“Uncle Yu, I don’t want to hide it from you. The truth is, that day…” her eyes flickered with a tangled light, “that day the one who saved the king is indeed me. I don’t want to take advantage of the event, but since Uncle is taking me as a niece then I can only speak the truth. My only request is that you don’t tell the king….” Easing up her mood, Hu Mei’s eyes were all looks of weakness like a helpless maiden: “After all, my sister made such a huge mistake back then, it’s only right that he does as he wish to my family.”

“Don’t worry my niece, I won’t tell His Majesty.” With a broad smile, the eagle chief actually went ahead to pat the lady’s shoulder several times to emphasize his point.

Wait, what? I’m only saying it, you can’t be serious about not telling the king!?Hu Mei grew flustered inside and nearly blurted out her true thoughts. There’s no way this fox demoness would hold back when such a great opportunity comes across her path. It’s the perfect excuse to climb into Di Cang’s bed!
