There is a beast in the bright morning.

Chapter 226 In order to make peace, Rabbit Lord had no choice but to suffer.

Fortunately, the Four-Faced Beast reminded them in time, allowing Bixie to leave the Deer Man's shop ahead of time without being noticed by the Bluebird.

To avoid the bluebird noticing the presence of two Tianlu birds and thus discovering something amiss, Haochen quickly reverted to his original appearance and even disguised himself as a dog spirit.

Although Haochen was also unwilling, he couldn't think of what he wanted to become for the time being.

"I should have left with Bixie earlier," Hao Chen muttered to himself, but soon he felt a hostile force looming over him.

He looked around warily and quickly pinpointed the source of the hostility to Tianlu.

After realizing that the hostility came from Tianlu, Haochen was bewildered. What was wrong with Tianlu? Was he still angry because they had just fought?

But I was the one who suffered a loss just now, so I should be the one who's angry.

On the other side, Tianlu saw Haochen looking over and a flash of anger appeared in his eyes. He thought to himself: This guy has already revealed his true form, yet he still dares to stay. Once Qingniao leaves, he and Bixie will give him a good beating and see if he will leave.

Seeing the atmosphere was a bit tense, the four-legged creature quickly stepped forward to smooth things over: "Pipi, go home and sleep first, we can talk about it tomorrow."

Upon hearing that the Four-Faced Beast wanted him to go home, Tianlu hesitated: "Damn it, I get annoyed seeing that guy bothering the Four-Faced Beast, but I still don't understand the Four-Faced Beast's problem."

He had originally rushed back because he heard Hao Chen's roar and was worried about the safety of the Four-Faced Beast, but now it seems that the Four-Faced Beast is not in danger.

More importantly, Tianlu realized that the Four-Faced Beast knew Haochen and was not being deceived by him.

This made Tianlu subconsciously think that Haochen had stolen the care that originally belonged to him, which made Tianlu feel a pang of sadness.

Just as Tianlu was still hesitating about whether to go back to the deer-man shop, Haochen suddenly ran up to the four-legged creature and rubbed against it: "Four-legged creature, I want to eat chicken stew with mushrooms, can you make it for me tomorrow!"

As Hao Chen spoke, he gestured with his eyes for the Four-Faced Beast to look at Tian Lu. However, the Four-Faced Beast was startled by Hao Chen's actions and did not notice his hint.

"Haochen, just tell me if you want to eat it. This is a bit too mushy," the four-legged creature said, taking a few steps back.

"Tch, they have absolutely no chemistry." Hao Chen thought to himself, but in order to get Tian Lu back, he had no choice but to continue trying to provoke Tian Lu.

Just as Hao Chen had predicted, Tianlu felt even more aggrieved after hearing that Hao Chen had asked the Four-Unlikes to cook chicken stew with mushrooms.

"That bastard, the Four-Unlikes, used to cook for me, but now he's making chicken stew with mushrooms for other people."

Tianlu pursed his lips tightly. For some reason, after seeing Haochen and the Four-Faced Beast being intimate, he felt a sense of displeasure, as if his precious treasure had been taken away.

To further provoke Tianlu, Haochen jumped into the arms of the Qilin, shouting, "Qilin, hold me tight!"

"Hey, what's wrong now?" Although the Qilin didn't understand Haochen's meaning, it still subconsciously reached out its paw to catch Haochen.

Hao Chen pressed his face against the Qilin's chest and took a deep breath, then turned to look at Tian Lu, raising an eyebrow with a provocative expression.

"Hmph, this despicable guy, how dare he provoke me."

Tianlu was amused by Haochen's actions and, without caring whether the problem of the four-legged creature was solved, jumped into its arms as well.

With a "thud," the Qilin (a mythical creature) bore a burden far beyond its years.

Caught off guard by Tianlu's sudden pounce, the Qilin lost its footing and fell to the ground along with Haochen in its arms.

"Ouch, my back!" The four-legged creature felt a sharp pain in its back and cursed its bad luck. It twisted its back so late at night, and it figured it wouldn't be able to get a good night's sleep.

When Tianlu saw that he had knocked down the four-legged creature, he immediately looked around guiltily, but soon he glared fiercely at Haochen.

Hao Chen was speechless: "Tian Lu, you don't actually think it's all my fault, do you?"

Tianlu did not answer Haochen, but his eyes said it all.

"Sigh, it seems like I have to use my ultimate move to ease the tension with Tianlu."

If possible, Hao Chen would not want to strain his relationship with Tian Lu, but things didn't go as planned, and now Tian Lu can be said to be very hostile to Hao Chen.

Fortunately, Hao Chen thought Tian Lu was relatively easy to fool. First of all, there was no deep-seated hatred between them, which gave Hao Chen a chance to ease the tension.

Secondly, Tianlu's love for eating treasures is also a breakthrough point. Although Haochen doesn't have any treasures with him right now, he can "borrow" some.

Thinking of this, Hao Chen felt relieved. As long as he took out his treasure, Tian Lu would most likely not hold it against him.

As long as Tianlu doesn't hold it against him, given Bixie's brother-obsessed personality, there's a high probability he won't hold it against him either.

Finally, the three of them could play together and stick together again.

"The plan is perfect. Next, I just need to find the sucker who will 'borrow' my treasure."

Hao Chen was secretly pleased with himself, but when he came to his senses, he found that the surroundings were quiet and Tianlu and the Four-Faced Beast had left at some point.

"No, you're leaving without even saying goodbye?"

Hao Chen shook his head and did not immediately return to the house. Instead, he turned and walked towards the backyard.

On the other side, the Qilin, supported by Tianlu, also returned to the Deer Man's shop.

After Tianlu helped the four-legged creature onto the bed, it suddenly grabbed Tianlu's paw and said, "Hey Pipi, now that you're back, don't leave. I'm begging you."

Tianlu didn't answer the question about the Four-Faced Beast. Instead, he said with a conflicted expression, "Oh... well, the Four-Faced Beast, I saw a yellow version of you in the mirror before... I must have been seeing things, right? You're clearly white, haha."

Tianlu's words made the Four-Unlikes feel a sudden pang in its heart. It wanted to tell Tianlu the truth, but it was also afraid that Tianlu would leave because it was not the "Four-Unlikes" in its heart.

Tianlu is struggling with why he saw the different Qi Xiang in the first place, while Qi Xiang is also struggling with whether or not he should tell the truth.

For a moment, neither of them spoke, and finally, the four-legged creature sighed inwardly.

The four-legged creature thought to itself: So the other "me" is white.

Well, since Pipi has already guessed it, it's time to be honest. After all, I'm the one who owes him!

"Pipi, um, there's something I want to tell you. Actually, I'm not the fourth one you're thinking of..."

The Four-Unlikes took a deep breath, just as it was about to confess everything to Tianlu before the Bluebird returned, when the door was suddenly kicked open.

Bang! ! !

"I'm back!" Hao Chen strode in with an arrogant air.

Tianlu was instantly annoyed: "Why haven't you left yet?"

"Hmph, Tianlu, watch your tone."

"What did you say? You..."

Just as Tianlu was about to make a move, he was suddenly blinded by a golden light: "Wow, that's so bright, what was that?"

When he saw it clearly, he was instantly attracted by the yellow ball in Hao Chen's paw: "It smells so good, it's a golden ball!"

Hao Chen sneered, thinking that Tian Lu would be easily defeated.

Without further ado, Hao Chen gently tossed the golden ball in his paw towards Tian Lu: "Here comes the golden ball, catch it, Tian Lu."

Tianlu instinctively leaped forward and caught the golden ball that was tossed into the air.

With a swallowing sound, the fist-sized golden ball disappeared directly into Tianlu's mouth.

"Oh no, I ate the golden ball without thinking!!"

Tianlu blushed as he looked at Haochen, who had a half-smile on his face, and felt a little embarrassed. He had actually eaten something that was meant to please Haochen.

Hao Chen breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Tian Lu eat the golden ball. Fortunately, Tian Lu's gluttony was still there, so he could control him now.

"Tianlu, do you want to eat the golden ball again?" Haochen flicked his hand, and another fist-sized golden ball appeared in his palm. He tossed it toward Tianlu again.

Tianlu thought to himself, "It's already eaten, what can I do with it? I can't just make the Pixiu vomit up what it ate."

So, Tianlu, without hesitation, jumped lightly again, caught Haochen's golden ball, and ate it directly.

Afterwards, Hao Chen kept taking out golden balls to feed Tian Lu, and Tian Lu accepted them all. In the end, Hao Chen and Tian Lu even squatted down on the ground and ate the golden balls together.

After Hao Chen had fed all the golden balls to Tian Lu, Tian Lu lay down on the ground contentedly: "For the sake of the golden balls, I won't hold it against you for impersonating me and deceiving the Qilin."

"Really? Thank you, Tianlu."

Although Haochen was quite confident that he could become friends with Tianlu again, he only felt relieved after Tianlu said it to him personally.

After Tianlu finished eating and drinking, he suddenly remembered that the Four-Faced Beast seemed to have something to say to him: "By the way, Four-Faced Beast, what did you want to say just now?"

"It's nothing. I just said it's almost dawn, go to sleep." The Qilin glanced at the bluebird at the window and swallowed the words it was about to say.

Hao Chen naturally guessed what the four-legged creature was going to say, but now was not the right time.

"Sibuxiang, didn't you just twist your back? Let Tianlu and I massage it for you."

As Hao Chen spoke, he pulled Tian Lu along and they both jumped onto the strange-looking bed.

Seeing this, the four-legged creature was about to agree, but then it suddenly noticed that Hao Chen was covered in mud, and even had left plum blossom-shaped claw marks on the blanket.

"Haochen, get down here right now, wash yourself clean, and then come back up."

The four-legged creature looked at the mud on Hao Chen's body and, recalling the golden ball Hao Chen had just taken out, suddenly had a bad feeling.

……

The next day, while the Qilin was still catching up on sleep, Rabbit's voice suddenly rang out: "Who stole my wife's dowry?!"
