Late at night, Nan Jiayu sat silently on her dorm bed.
It wasn't lights out yet, and her roommates were, as usual, sitting at their desks playing games.
"Critically low HP!"
"You call that health bar 'critically low HP'?!"
Nan Jiayu only felt the noise.
Perhaps it was because her energy had been significantly drained by the Magic Girl's activities; Nan Jiayu didn't like playing games and preferred to read or browse videos in her free time.
But now she had a new hobby:
"Good evening, viewers!"
"Fox Fox makes her entrance! ~"
On the screen, the lively and adorable loli Golden Fox smiled charmingly in front of the camera, sparkling brightly.
"They're here, they're here."
"Got a front-row seat."
"Will Fox Fox sing today?"
"I want to hear Fox Fox sing."
The bullet comments streamed endlessly, and a few SCs asking for a song floated up in the top right corner, each thanked by Golden Fox.
"Thank you for all the SCs ~ Oh my, so many people want to hear Fox Fox sing?"
"But it's already very late, if Fox Fox sings loudly again, everyone won't be able to rest well."
"What a pity."
"Gentle Fox Fox."
The bullet comments flooded the screen.
Nan Jiayu hadn't expected the audience to be so enthusiastic.
However, the number of viewers today was indeed much higher than usual; it seemed more and more people were noticing the Xin Yuehu live stream.
This was a good thing, proving that Fox Fox truly possessed outstanding charm.
"Ah, since everyone is so enthusiastic… then Fox Fox can sing some soft songs too."
"How about a lullaby? Does everyone want to hear a lullaby?"
The camera was held in the little fox's hand, and after some rustling, the lens shifted to an unfamiliar upward-looking angle.
Golden Fox lowered her head, hooked a strand of hair behind her ear with her pinky, her smile sweet, her gaze doting.
"Since it's a lullaby, I'll sing it from a lap-pillow perspective ~"
Huh? You can sing like that?
Nan Jiayu blinked blankly, quickly pulled the blanket over herself, and lay down on her pillow.
It was as if she was truly being lap-pillowed by this adorable little fox.
This is called immersion!
"Yay, it's Fox Fox's lap pillow."
"Fox Fox Mama."
"Wuwuwu Fox Fox is so cute."
Before the bullet comments could continue to flood the screen, a soft singing voice flowed from her mouth.
Nan Jiayu's mouth was slightly agape, unsure what expression to make, but her tail, unconsciously curled into a circle, faithfully reflected the Cat Girl's mood.
The moonlight was clear and bright, the girl smiled gently, her voice soft and elegant.
The stars dotted the sky, and the Milky Way seemed to sway with her song.
The bullet comments paused for a long time, almost everyone immersed in the gentle lullaby.
It wasn't until the song ended and a clear, light laugh sounded in her ear that Nan Jiayu returned to reality from her trance.
"How was it ~ Did Fox Fox sing well ~?"
"It's a pity, if only Fox Fox could play the piano, then this lullaby might be even more beautiful."
The long-silent bullet comments suddenly erupted.
Nan Jiayu's phone screen was temporarily overwhelmed and a bit laggy by the sheer volume of bullet comments.
Red SCs formed a carpet, flooding the screen in a massive wave.
"Oh my… oh my… this…"
Golden Fox seemed to be seeing such a large carpet of SCs for the first time, and she froze for a long time.
Seeing her flustered appearance, the bullet comments became even more energetic.
"Fox Fox's singing is beautiful."
"It's the most beautiful lullaby I've ever heard."
"Wuwuwu Fox Fox Mama wuwuwu."
Nan Jiayu stared blankly at the screen, even forgetting to send a red carpet SC.
It wasn't until the little fox began chatting with the bullet comments again that Nan Jiayu finally recovered from the lingering aftertaste of the lullaby.
Then she quietly opened her wallet and sent an SC.
【Fox Fox is so cute, can I hear a lullaby tomorrow too?】
"Thank you for your support ~ Thank you Junzi You Jiu for the SC ~"
"Since everyone likes it so much, then Fox Fox will sing a lullaby for everyone every night ~"
"Yay" X343
A lullaby every day!
The Cat Girl chuckled foolishly at the screen, her tail hanging over the edge of the bed, trembling slowly.
This drew suspicious glances from her three roommates below the bed.
"...I say."
Roommate A said, "Xiao Yu's condition is really off."
"Is it? I think she's fine."
Roommate B looked puzzled.
"But now that you mention it… it does seem different from when we first had military training."
Roommate C keenly noticed something and said.
The three of them looked in unison at the Cat Girl lying on the bed, her tail wagging wildly.
"How to put it, it feels like even though Xiao Yu seems cold, her emotions are actually quite rich."
"Cat Girls are all like this, cold on the outside, warm on the inside."
"I wonder who can tame a Cat Girl like Xiao Yu…"
Roommates A, B, and C huddled together, chatting softly, and couldn't help but recall military training.
At that time, everyone had just enrolled, and Nan Jiayu was truly like a cat in a new environment.
Every day after military training, she would return to the dorm and curl up in a corner of her bed, ignoring everyone.
Until one day, Roommate B suddenly suffered from heatstroke and felt dizzy, and this Cat Girl, leveraging her excellent physical strength as a beastkin, ran a kilometer from the dorm to take Roommate B to the affiliated hospital of the medical college for treatment.
Only then did the dorm atmosphere improve, and Nan Jiayu finally integrated into this completely unfamiliar environment.
Who could tame this Cat Girl so quickly?
"Tian Qing Tongxue."
"Only Tian Qing Tongxue."
"That adorable little fox."
They spoke in unison, yet all pointed to the same person.
A classmate who lived off-campus, a petite foxkin, Su Tianqing.
Petite and cute, lively and cheerful.
Although she was enthusiastic towards everyone else, she stuck to Nan Jiayu almost every day, to the point of almost becoming Fox Fox's accessory.
"It should be… mutual affection."
Roommate A sharply commented.
"Yeah, Tian Qing Tongxue is so cute, but she sticks to Xiao Yu every day… Hmm, why do I feel a little jealous?"
"Xiao Yu is also quite cute, they're a good match."
"But they're both girls."
Roommate B interjected.
Then she was stared at intently by Roommates A and C simultaneously.
"What's wrong with girls? Isn't it good for girls?"
"Xiao Yu can't be 'snouted' by a pig! Of course, she should go 'snout' someone else's cabbage!"
Roommate B's pupils dilated.
Oh no, a yuri fan is right beside me?
The CP shippers under the bed were whispering to each other.
The Cat Girl huddled on her bed, staring at the screen, occasionally letting out silly laughs.
.
At the same time.
A residence in Huatianli Community, Rong City.
Nan Xiaofeng lay on her bed, holding her phone.
On the screen was the little fox humming under the moonlight; with the bullet comments blocked, she could see her charming and adorable face more clearly.
Bai Ling said she had to return to the Star Realm to find a way to become stronger and hadn't been around for the past few days.
Her ears were much quieter, but Nan Xiaofeng felt a bit bored.
She could actually understand her.
After all, ever since Xin Yuehu appeared, she and Hua Ling had never gained an advantage over that fox, and had even fallen into desperate situations multiple times…
Although these 'desperate situations' were entirely used by Xin Yuehu for pranks.
But…
"..."
Nan Xiaofeng looked at the smiling little fox on the screen, pursing her lips.
She saw the two cute band-aids in her palm.
…Was the scene she witnessed truly just a dream?
Even though she had woken up startled, she still couldn't forget the small hand that held hers, and the graceful figure of Iris, shining brightly in the sunset.
…Actually, it was quite cute.
But why did Xin Yuehu do this to her?
She repeatedly picked on her but never laid a hand on her, and never even caused her any injuries…
"Ahhh! I can't figure it out!"
Nan Xiaofeng closed her eyes tightly, her phone screen went dark, and she forced herself to close her eyes and sleep.
She had to go to school tomorrow! Hurry up and sleep!
Silence.
After a long silence, the screen lit up again.
