Adorable Treasured Fox: Divine Doctor Mother Overturning the Heavens!

Chapter 11 "Bai Xiao's Shock"

Bai Xiachen apparently didn't notice his mother's presence on the street, "Uncle, I like you. Why don't you come home with me?" His small hands continuing to warp itself around the teen's leg, refusing to let go.

Looking at the cute little thing clinging onto him, Bai Xiao's gaze gradually softened.

That soft cheek, that hint of milky aroma of a baby, combined together makes the child look like a small little steam bun that others would be tempted to take a bite out of.

"Where is your home? I'll send you back." Bai Xiao's gently rubs the little head, his smile ever so warm because he had liked the little bun at first sight.

"I..." Happy inside, Bai Xiachen wanted to tell the truth this instant when he abruptly noticed the dark faced Bai Yan coming over.

Jumping from shock, even his small little hands had lost their grip as he retreated in haste.

I'm finished!

Why is mom here?

"Sis, what are you doing here?" A genuine smile emerges from Bai Xiao's face.

Still dark and gloomy in her face, Bai Yan first casts a glance at the dirty boy, then shifted it back to her brother: "Take this little thing and follow me!"

"This..." Bai Xiao was obviously stunned by the demand. Scratching his head in confusion, "Sister, wouldn't this count as child trafficking? The idea doesn't seem to be very good."

Ignoring the question, Bai Yan simply turns away and walked ahead.

Though Bai Xiao was hesitant at first, he eventually relented and went ahead to pick up the little meat bun: "Sorry little guy. Although I like you very much, but my sister is the biggest so I can only offend you this time."

Originally he thought that Bai Xiachen would struggle and cry out from his touch, but the behavior of the boy utterly shocked him. Quiet and obedient, the little fella just sat there in his arms while the kitten from earlier followed next to them.

..............

Inside the courtyard.

Entering from following his sister's lead, Bai Xiao was full of curiosity in his eyes at the new environment. Just as he wanted to ask whose place was this, the woman in front had stopped and took a seat on a stone stool there.

"Do you know your wrong?" Crossing her legs, she starts tapping her right fingers on the table like the mistress of the house.

"Huh?"

Now it was Bai Xiao's turn to be dumbfounded, what mistake did I do today to make sis so angry?

Just as he was busy trying to think long and hard on what he did wrong, Bai Xiachen that was still hanging his small little head on his uncle's shoulder suddenly jumped off.

Then as if only natural, the little meat bun went ahead and grabbed for the baby tiger on the side, his face angry as he asked: "Little Rice, did you do something wrong again and made mother upset? Hurry and confess! Leniency will be given if you tell the truth!"

Poor Little Rice. Completely caught off guard by the questioning, the only thing running through his tiger brain now was this: who can be more shameless than his little owner here? As expected, only a fox can be this insidious and cunning!

"Mother." Beaming a brilliant smile, the little guy makes a pleading face with his eyes and said, "Little Rice admits his wrong so please forgive him."

Mom?

A total mess inside, Bai Xiao's eye was full of astonishment at the news. Trembling, he looks to Bai Yan for confirmation.

This little bun... is his nephew?

"Bai Xiachen!" Slamming the stone table, "Did you forget everything I said to you before?"

"Mom, it's Little Rice who encouraged me to go. Even Bai Zhi was scratched by him, it's really not me."

Why did he bring along the baby tiger? Of course it's to have his little furry friend take the fall for himself. No matter what, he can't possible admit to be the instigator of the idea.

On top of the ancient tree outside the courtyard, a skinny man remains hidden behind the branches.

Can it be I've been found? Realizing the sweeping gaze coming his way was from Bai Yan, the man nearly skipped a beat.

"Sister..." Bai Xiao was just ready to ask about the child when Bai Yan halted him with her fingers.

"Little Rice, go finish off that tailing fly there."

"Meow." Responding quickly, the baby tiger rushes out of the yard.

Lapsing out for a good moment, Bai Xiao was eventually knocked back to his senses when a heart wrenching cry came from the outside.

"Ah!"

Falling out from the ancient tree, a thin figure mercilessly slammed into the ground with his throat swiped open. Blood flowed profusely out of that wound with no signs of stopping.

"Ughh-Bleh."

Gracefully stepping through the doorway, the little white tiger unhappily spits out a mouthful of blood and saliva at the floor. Wiping away the excess, Little Rice begins to murmur his complaint: "This human's blood is so disgusting. I still like Mistress's braised pork more!"

Originally Bai Xiao was already speechless from Little Rice's strength, but upon hearing the human words coming out of that tiger mouth, he nearly fainted away from being overwhelmed.

"Sister..." He's ready to cry now, "Why does this kitty know how to speak?"

Glancing at the baby tiger, a mischievous smile appears on Bai Yan's face: "It's because he is what you call a Demon Beast."

In front of her brother, Bai Yan didn't bother to hide the truth because it was just a matter of time when this comes out.

"But, there aren't many Demon Beasts out there that could speak human tongue, let alone be domesticated."

In truth, the majority of the demon beasts out there are very noble. They can help their human companions fight and do plenty of other jobs. Unfortunately, they are also very difficult to domesticate, especially the ones that can speak.

"Don't you feel surprised?" Bai Yan shrugged her shoulders, smiling the entire time.

Surprise?

"If my heart wasn't so strong, I would've been scared to death right now. First tell me, is that child really your son?"

Looking at her brother's anticipating eyes, she nodded: "Mhmm, his name is Bai Xiachen. He's my son. But just to make this clear, I don't want anyone to know about his existence just yet."

Now it made sense to him as to why the child would be so against Bai Zhi at the restaurant. It's because of his sister here!

"Sister, I understand, I will protect him along with you."

By now Bai Xiachen had finished washing his face and returned with his new cuddly face.

"It's getting late, I should first go back." Seeing his nephew returning and the gradually darkening sky, he knew its time.

"You went against Bai Zhi today so it's a certainty that girl would tell on you. In my opinion, its better you don't go back." Bai Yan frowns, worried for her brother's safety.

Shaking his head, the boy refused the request: "I am that man's only son. The most they can do to me is to scold or not let me have a meal. Sister, the Bai House belongs to me and you, I won't let Yu Rong or her daughters steal our things!"

Opening her mouth, Bai Yan wanted to say more to persuade the boy but found herself unable to utter anything.

"No matter what happens, you can come here to find me. Over here, no one can harm you."

"Okay." Smiling, he gently rubs at the little troublemaker's head, "Xiachen, Uncle here will definitely come see you tomorrow."
