Chapter 9 - Dogskin Plaster (The first minute after being apart from the little fox. I miss her already.)

She was petite in her fox form; just the height of the husky's legs. 

The husky had probably never seen a little sister turned into a fox with a BANG before. It circled and nuzzled the fox excitedly. Finally, the husky picked her up by the nape of her neck and carried her all the way back to the hotel outside of the studio. 

Xu WanZhi was very distressed – she still had filming to do! And, with all the surveillance cameras around the hotel, how was she supposed to turn back into human form?

The husky knew its way. It walked all the way outside of a room and started clawing on the door. 

After a little while, the door opened up and a tall and slender man walked out. Seeing the fox that the husky had brought back, he was a little surprised as well. After a little while, he said, "Not bad. You've learned to bring girls home now?"

He placed his hands under the fox and the dog let go of it. 

After she was lifted up into the air, Xu WanZhi finally noticed that the owner of the husky was none other than the three-gold film emperor Jiang YueXian. 

Just the man she was trying to avoid…

Unlike Mu ZhenYu, Jiang YueXian has a more seductive look to him. Seductive, but not feminine, his own very unique style. 

He looked all over the little fox left and right, and his long and slender eyes lit up. "What kind of a fairy fox is this? How is it so cute?!"

Having said that, he stuck his large face over toward her and nuzzled her on her ear as he walked over to the couch. "Just look at these cute little legs with black panty hose. This is a red fox, right? And look at this poofy tail. Oh, my gosh!"

The husky was ignored. It walked over to him, placed his paw on his knee, and wanted to join in the fun. Jiang YueXian reached out his arm and shoved it back onto the ground. "Be good. Let me take another look."

The husky whined a few times and finally resigned to laying down on the ground motionlessly.

"How come I wasn't aware that anyone in our circle has a pet fox?" Jiang YueXian put her on his lap and grabbed her front paws. He stroked them and swayed them from side to side. "Gosh. I can't believe how cute she is. Eh? Her paws are so small. Looks almost like a bunny.

"What's your name? Who's your owner, hmm?" Jiang YueXian's large hand stroked her back and forth on her back. "My name is Jiang YueXian. C'mon, say 'YueXian-gege'."

Xu WanZhi couldn't believe what she had just heard. YueXian-gege? Chatty-gege was more like it. 

She wanted to rush back to the studio, so she gave him a vicious kick.

Not only did Jiang YueXian didn't get upset at that, he was even more excited than before. "Aiyo, you sure know how to kick. What a little tsundere. Come, take a picture with big brother."

Having said that, he picked up his cellphone, rotated the camera, and started taking selfies. 

Xu WanZhi really didn't want to play along with him. She kept on kicking and punching him. Alas, her fox body was so small that her kicking and punching have no effect on a man like Jiang YueXian. 

She was forced to have selfies with him. 

Suddenly, someone knocked on the door. Jiang YueXian carried her in his arms to go get the door. His assistant walked in.

The little assistant looked at him with distaste and said, "Boss Jiang, the director had already asked about you three times…" Before she was done talking, she noticed the fox that Jiang YueXian was carrying. "You have a pet fox now? When did you get it? She's sooo cute. Uber cute!"

Jiang YueXian immediately brought the fox up next to his cheek as if to show off. He nuzzled the fox and said, "She's not mine. My husky just brought her back. I don't know who she belongs to. She's cute, right? Her cuteness distracted me, which was why I was late heading over to the studio."

The assistant glanced over at him and finally her look locked onto the little fox. "Can you please quickly change and go downstairs? Seriously, can you just get a girlfriend? What's up with you and your pets…"

"I am not interested in women," said Jiang YueXian as he waved his hand. "The love of my life are these fuzzy little angels."

Xu WanZhi had goosebumps hearing his words. Jiang YueXian had always played the role of a career-oriented, caring man. Who'd have thought that he was such a tool in person?

Her reputation was all ruined by having all the couple selfies taken with this guy.

The little assistant blocked the door and wouldn't leave unless Jiang YueXian left with her. Jiang YueXian had no other choices other than putting the fox down gently onto the couch and went to get changed.

Seeing that the opportunity had presented itself, Xu WanZhi quickly jumped onto the floor, dashed into the bathroom, and converted back to human form. She quickly sent a text to Xiao Yuan, "My fox was taken away by Jiang YueXian's dog. Go quickly to Yueting Hotel Room 1208 and bring it back to my room. Hurry!!!"

After a little while, Xu WanZhi heard the bedroom door being opened and quickly turned back into her fox form. She then walked over to the front door and waited for Xiao Yuan. 

After Jiang YueXian had changed out of his casual clothes, he looked like a much more serious person. He picked the little fox up again from the floor and wanted to give her a big kiss. 

Xu WanZhi, naturally, didn't want him to do that. She tried as hard as she could to kick him on his nose. 

Luckily, Xiao Yuan had finally got there by then. She ran over there and took a few deep breaths before she said to Jiang YueXian, "I'm sorry, Mr. Jiang. I am Xiao Yuan, Xu WanZhi's assistant. This is her fox and we don't know how it got here. Miss Xu had asked me to bring her back. Can you please…"

"Oh, she belongs to Xu WanZhi?" Hearing that name, Jiang YueXian's face dropped immediately as though it wasn't a fox that he was carrying, but a knock-off purse. With a look of disgust, he thrusted the fox into Xiao Yuan's arms and said, "Why does she have to belong to Xu WanZhi and not anyone else? Here, you can have her back."

Even Jiang YueXian's assistant added unhappily, "Such bad luck!"

Xiao Yuan immediately thanked them before she headed back toward the hotel room that the production team had booked for Xu WanZhi. 

After Xiao Yuan was gone, Jiang YueXian let out a long sigh and said, "Aye… the first minute after being apart from the little fox, I miss her already."

His assistant patted him on his back and said, "That's Xu WanZhi. We have been trying hard to lose her. Don't engage."

All Jiang YueXian could think of was that little fox. He couldn't help but defend Xu WanZhi. "You know, her new agent came and talked to me a couple of days ago. She told me that it was Xu WanZhi's old agent's idea for her to try and leech off of my popularity. Xu WanZhi didn't want that herself. Look, she hasn't been coming around since she has this new agent, right? It couldn't hurt to have another friend. I think I could totally try to work things out with her…"

His assistant was speechless. "Do you remember what you've told me when you learned that she was going to be at this studio? You said she was dogskin plaster (quack medicine). You said she was chewed gum stuck to the bottom of someone's shoes. And now you are defending her? You are a pathetic slave to the furry animals."

Xu WanZhi was carried inside the elevator by Xiao Yuan before they could no longer hear the words between those two. 

Xu WanZhi couldn't help but chuckle to herself. So he called her dogskin plaster huh? And chewed gum? Oh, alright. What goes around comes around. That chatty Jiang YueXian would never get to stroke her noble coat ever again!

After Xiao Yuan had brought her back to her room, she quickly changed back into her human form and ran straight to the studio. 

Luckily, the director was still busy with the props and she was just a few minutes late. She quickly went inside the dressing room, got dressed, and went to put makeup on. When all was said and done and she had walked out of the dressing room, Xiao Yuan had already opened up a coconut and handed it over to her. 

"I ran after you earlier and forgot about your coconuts. These were sent over by Mr. Mu. He even told me to take them to the fruit stand outside for them to open them up for you. He said to tell you to not use the knife. He doesn't want you hurting yourself accidentally," said Xiao Yuan as she gestured with her own fingers. After a long wait, she added, "Oh, yeah, Mr. Mu asked you to drink more water and be careful not to get a heat stroke."

Having heard that, Xu WanZhi was somewhat touched and she asked, "Where is he now?"

"He waited for a while in the car, but I wasn't able to find you. He finally left to take care of his work," said Xiao Yuan.
