Chapter 22

22 I’m Very Innocent

With tears in his eyes, Chen Qiyue paid 1,688 yuan and brought the sashimi into the house. He saw that the Fire Cloud Hound was already waiting at the stairs.

Obviously, this was a signal for him to bring it up.

Chen Qiyue looked at it silently without saying anything.

“Woof!” The Fire Cloud Hound barked softly at Chen Qiyue. Its voice was not loud, as if it was reminding him to give the sashimi to it.

Chen Qiyue was still looking at it silently. “This is mine. I paid for it!”

He emphasized the word “paid”.

Fire Cloud Hound: …

Zhang Jirou upstairs: …

“Since you asked for protection, you must be responsible for my food and accommodation. You…”

Zhang Jirou’s voice came from upstairs, but she was interrupted halfway by Chen Qiyue.

“I’ll buy groceries and come back to cook for you. I’ll make you a big table of meals at a time!”

“The fact that I’m providing you with food and accommodation doesn’t mean that I have to spend so much money on you. You have to know that just two weeks ago, I only had a total of 20,000 yuan on me…”

Chen Qiyue gritted his teeth and said.

Zhang Jirou: …

She saw that this kid bought clothes for 200,000 yuan without blinking and spent another 60,000 yuan to rent a house. She thought that he was not short of money, but it turned out that he was pretending?

Chen Qiyue’s heart was bleeding. If it weren’t for the fact that he was trying to disguise himself, he would never have bought clothes that cost 200,000 yuan. Impossible!

The atmosphere instantly fell silent.

Zhang Jirou sighed. “Alright, alright. I’ll pay for the food, alright? I’ll transfer 2,000 yuan to you. Get the Fire Cloud Hound to bring the sashimi over.”

“No need, just 1,688 yuan. I won’t take advantage of you. Besides, I mean what I say. I’ll make you a table of dishes every day!”

Chen Qiyue sent his account number to Zhang Jirou without hesitation. He had not given the sashimi to the Fire Cloud Hound.

Zhang Jirou snorted and angrily transferred 1,688 yuan to Chen Qiyue.

Chen Qiyue only passed the sashimi to the Fire Cloud Hound when he saw the message on his phone.

“You think you can do anything?!”

Women needed to be taught a lesson.

As for protection…

Chen Qiyue glanced at Qingda University diagonally opposite him. If she didn’t do her best, he would make a big deal out of it.

Sometimes, he would not put his life on someone he had just met.

Even though this person seemed to have helped him a lot, he deserved it.

He had paid a Double-Winged Mais Dragon’s egg.

“Ugly?” The Giant Ugly Fish wagged her tail and flew over. Its dead fish eyes stared at the Fire Cloud Hound’s tail as it went upstairs.

“Oh, child, let’s continue. How was the taste just now?”

Chen Qiyue carried the Giant Ugly Fish to the kitchen and continued his business.

Zhang Jirou held the bag of sashimi and looked at Chen Qiyue hugging the Giant Ugly Fish thoughtfully.

“This is his B-rank Fantastic Beast? Giant Ugly Fish? Interesting.”

After the Giant Ugly Fish was full, Chen Qiyue began to massage it. “After the massage, you’ll have to brush the spots on your skin and meridians. You’ll have to dilute the stains of the spots and dredge your meridians. It’ll hurt a little, so bear with it.”

Chen Qiyue took a resin brush that had been soaked in hot water and tested the temperature. He only started scrubbing after it was not scalding.

“Chou~” She would endure the pain!

Chen Qiyue brushed down the scales. He was gentle at first, but later on, he applied a little more force.

At first, Zhang Jirou thought that Chen Qiyue was just making food for the Giant Ugly Fish in the kitchen.

But he didn’t come out for an hour or two. She was curious. What was this guy doing?

She came downstairs in her pajamas and stood at the kitchen door. She saw Chen Qiyue’s brush…

Scraping fish scales?

Why was he scraping fish scales?

Was he going to eat the Giant Ugly Fish?!

“Stop! What are you doing!” Zhang Jirou was furious and rushed in.

She thought that Chen Qiyue had shown how much he liked the Giant Ugly Fish, but she did not expect him to be such a person who abused the baby Fantastic Beast!

Chen Qiyue and the Giant Ugly Fish were shocked. The Giant Ugly Fish’s tail even bounced in fear.

Chen Qiyue frowned slightly and watched as Zhang Jirou grabbed his hand that was holding the brush.

Although Zhang Jirou was a woman, she was quite strong. She even grabbed him so hard that it hurt.

“What are you doing?” Chen Qiyue looked up at Zhang Jirou.

Actually, he didn’t like living with others because he hated his “business” being interrupted.

Chen Qiyue was dumbfounded after the quick glance.

Zhang Jirou had already changed into her pajamas. However, her pajamas were a silk nightdress, with a plunging neckline.

Due to her excitement, her slender and fair hands held onto him tightly.

Anger made her body tremble. Her collar slipped halfway down, and the snow-white parts of her body came into view.

How could a virgin boy resist such stimulation?

Chen Qiyue was stunned.

“What am I doing? I should be asking you that question!” Zhang Jirou was so angry that her chest heaved violently.

There were so many beauties in the world, causing countless heroes to bow down to them.

Chen Qiyue finally understood the true meaning of this sentence.

“What’s wrong with the Giant Ugly Fish? It’s just a child that has just hatched. What’s the difference between your behavior and the Poker Association?”

Zhang Jirou’s angry voice finally brought Chen Qiyue back to his senses.

‘What do you mean, what’s the difference between him and the Poker Association?’

Chen Qiyue frowned. Even if you seduce me with such beauty, I won’t be moved.

“Is there something wrong with you? I still have to continue massaging my child. Let go. If you don’t let go, I’ll take it that you’re tempting me,” Chen Qiyue looked at her calmly and said.

“Chou~” The Giant Ugly Fish clearly understood that this woman had misunderstood her Beast Tamer.

She didn’t know what to do either, but she saw that this woman was holding the Beast Tamer’s wrist so tightly that it was a little red.

The Giant Ugly Fish flicked her body, and a silver-gray dark light appeared on her body. Her tail quickly rushed towards the back of Zhang Jirou’s hand.

“Pa!” A loud sound rang out in the kitchen.

Zhang Jirou felt a sharp pain and subconsciously let go. There was already a clear red mark on the back of her hand, and it was even a little red and swollen.

Zhang Jirou looked to the side in disbelief. This was the Giant Ugly Fish protecting her master.

Zhang Jirou’s heart was riddled with holes when she saw the Giant Ugly Fish standing in front of Chen Qiyue on the cloud.

“I’m helping you. This detestable fellow wants to remove your scales and cook you in the pot. Won’t you resent him?”

Zhang Jirou raised her head and glared at Chen Qiyue. “Terminate the contract. If you don’t like it, give it to me!”

Chen Qiyue’s head hurt. He wanted to rub his forehead with his hand. Only then did he realize that his wrist was already red and purple from Zhang Jirou’s grip.

“Officer Zhang, Inspector Zhang, can you be reasonable?”

“Don’t take a look and think that I’m doing something bad, right?”

“I’m just massaging my baby.”

Chen Qiyue said innocently, his other hand rubbing the Giant Ugly Fish’s head.

She was indeed his good child. She actually knew how to protect him. He was so touched!
