"Ah, the Ice Queen Faner," Fang Ye quipped, slowly extending his hand toward Xiao Qiao.
This action came with a warning: "Dangerous action, please do not imitate!" But the warning seemed to fall on deaf ears as Xiao Qiao appeared to grow angrier.
Xiao Qiao glared at Fang Ye, her back arched, and the hair on her back stood on end. She opened her mouth, revealing sharp teeth.
Fang Ye, however, remained undeterred. He grinned, revealing a circle of sharp teeth that looked intimidating.
He reminded everyone that foxes, with their charming and soft appearance, also had a dangerous side. Their long, pointed canine teeth in the lower jaw were quite conspicuous.
Undeterred, Fang Ye extended his hand again, but this time Xiao Qiao backed down, her demeanor appearing less ferocious.
She changed her attitude in an almost conflicted manner, her head tilted proudly, while her eyes darted sneakily toward Fang Ye.
The other foxes, seeing Xiao Qiao's shift, returned happily.
Fang Ye then decided to employ his [Affinity] skill, which seemed to affect the foxes positively, especially Xiao Qiao. She turned from being ferocious to more pleasant.
Youyou, the timid fox, also approached Fang Ye, while the prince rubbed against Fang Ye's leg and lay down comfortably. Even the grumpy sugar bag seemed to appreciate the change in atmosphere and played around cheerfully.
"The effect of this affinity skill is quite good," Fang Ye remarked.
Luna was impressed. "Wow, Director, how did you do that?"
Fang Ye continued with his playful tale, stating that he had a natural affinity with animals, even claiming to be a Beast Master.
While Fang Ye and Luna continued their playful conversation, Xiao Qiao felt a bit left out. She showed her annoyance and began to "uuuuu" in protest.
Fang Ye suddenly realized he had forgotten to interact with her. He picked her up and coaxed her, which led to a reconciliation. Afterward, the other foxes resumed their playful antics.
Fang Ye concluded that his [Affinity] skill was effective, although it lasted for about ten minutes. When it wore off, Youyou returned to her timid state, and Xiao Qiao, no longer feeling the skill's effect, showed her displeasure once more.
Fang Ye regained his cautiousness when he sensed Xiao Qiao's temper flare up. He tossed her lightly before she could bite him, and she left in a huff.
This unexpected change of mood bewildered Luna. She asked, "Director, you and Xiao Qiao were getting along so well earlier. Why did she suddenly turn aggressive again?"
Fang Ye sighed as if caught in the complexities of life. "Ah, the ways of a fox!"
