The checkerboard shape she had deliberately left on Zhu Yunqing's bed disappeared, replaced by a round pacifier.
Suddenly, the little fox was both happy and angry. This was her dark history from her early years. Back then, she had just joined the Huai Mountain family. Because she was young and insecure, she clung to Zhu Yunqing all day, treating her like her mother and wanting her to play with her.
Zhu Yunqing often used this past experience to tease her, saying that she was like a crying and fussing baby demanding a pacifier.
This viewpoint was widely supported by the family members. The eldest sister, the third sister, and the fourth sister often brought it up, which made Hua Caiyan anxious.
Now that the pacifier was placed on the bed, the fox was both amused and exasperated, but also relieved to know that her sister was safe and sound. Her initial embarrassment and annoyance didn't last long.
She then turned and left, running all the way back to the field mouse family to tell Yun Chuan the good news.
The latter was overjoyed upon hearing this, and after making all the necessary arrangements, he quietly returned home with his men.
When he returned to Huai Mountain and saw his former home in such a state of devastation, he couldn't help but feel sorrowful.
Fortunately, with the cultivators' abilities and the system's assistance, restoring the courtyard to its former state was a piece of cake.
He then used the system to restore his residence to its original state, and that night, he was finally able to sleep soundly in his own home.
The next day, early in the morning.
Yun Chu'an slept in late, a rare treat. He settled Qi Qiao in the coffin, allowing the zombie girl to continue her cultivation and strive to break through to a higher realm as soon as possible.
He and Liu Mengshen worked together to restore the houses in the town, one by one.
Hua Caiyan, along with the bear demon, wolf demon, and others, cleared out the weeds that had grown wildly in recent days from the several camps on the mountain, and set up sentry posts on all the necessary routes to guard against possible enemies.
For a considerable period of time to come, the mountains will remain far from peaceful, and for the safety of her family, she must take precautions.
After a full day of cleaning and surveying, all the necessary sentries had been set up. Having completed her duties, Hua Caiyan did not relax or intend to enjoy herself. Dragging her tired body, she wandered aimlessly, and before she knew it, she had returned to the entrance of Zhu Yunqing's cave.
Gazing at the familiar yet somewhat unfamiliar cave entrance, her eyes were filled with melancholy, and the emotions of longing surged within her chest, making her almost unable to hold back her tears.
Fourth sister, when will you finally come back...?
As she was thinking this, a familiar voice suddenly rang out behind her: "Why are you standing at the entrance of my cave? Why don't you come in and sit down?"
Chapter 187 I, Hua Caiyan, am not the kind of fox who steals her sister's man!
Hua Caiyan was stunned for a moment, then turned her head sharply, her expression filled with wild joy: "Fourth Sister!"
She turned her head and saw the familiar woman standing there, wearing a light blue silk dress and long green sleeves, with black tear-like makeup on her cheeks, smiling at her.
At that moment, the little fox finally couldn't hold back any longer and rushed forward, throwing itself into her arms: "Fourth Sister, I missed you so much, sob sob..."
She whimpered, the fear and anxiety of the past few days turning into grievance and joy, and all she wanted to do at that moment was to let it all out.
Like a spoiled little fox, she playfully teased the spider demon in her arms. Zhu Yunqing gently stroked her head and whispered, "Alright, alright, don't cry. Fourth Sister is safe and sound."
Her gaze softened, and as she embraced Hua Caiyan, her eyes were filled with love and relief, as if she were seeing her child, whom she had raised with such care, finally grow up: "These past few days, you've been taking care of Mengshen and the others. Thank you for your hard work, Caiyan."
Hua Caiyan shrank back from her embrace, wiped her red eyes, and forced a smile: "No, Fourth Sister, we've been living a very comfortable life these days, without any fear or worry."
Zhu Yunqing smiled and said, "You don't need to hide it like that. Fourth Sister knows that life on the run and in hiding is never easy."
Seeing that she didn't believe him, the little fox became a little anxious: "Oh dear, really not, Fourth Sister, listen to me..."
As she spoke, she took Zhu Yunqing's small hand and led her into the cave. They found a large rock to sit on and then began to recount her story: "That day, after we set off to seek refuge, we first spent a day in the shelter..."
Zhu Yunqing listened quietly, but when she heard that Yun Chuan actually suggested going to the edge of the Huang Mang family's territory for refuge, she was immediately shocked and repeatedly said "absurd" several times.
But as they listened further, they realized that he had indeed grasped the most crucial point, allowing the family members to safely get through this difficult period. Even Zhu Yunqing couldn't help but exclaim, "Genius!"
Upon hearing the final words, and learning that not only were they safe and sound, but Yun Chu'an had even risen to a minor leadership position in the Ten Thousand Snake Cave, with some of the orphaned daughters of snake demons calling him "godfather" in hopes of a bright future, Zhu Yunqing's expression immediately became extremely complicated: "This... how could such a thing happen!"
The thought of Hua Caiyan's description of a group of burly snake demon men fawning over Yun Chu'an, serving him tea and water, while a young snake demon child affectionately called him "godfather" made her laugh hysterically: "He's incredibly audacious! If the snake demons find out, heavens, he wouldn't have enough lives to kill!"
Hua Caiyan's face showed a proud expression, and she was also proud of this: "They won't find out! I gave him all my masks, so even if someone in the Foundation Establishment stage comes, they won't be able to see any flaws unless they look very closely!"
"Behind his success, I had my full support!"
She patted her bare chest, taking credit for herself. Zhu Yunqing smiled and looked at her with amusement, thinking to herself, "I didn't even notice, in the blink of an eye, the two of you have become so close."
"But, to be honest, I'm also a little curious, how did you two get together?"
Hua Caiyan was stunned for a moment, then her face flushed red in an instant: "Fourth Sister, what are you saying? I'm not with him!"
Seeing her reaction, Zhu Yunqing was also taken aback: "Huh? You didn't? But you all..."
She recalled the intimate and close relationship she had witnessed between them and couldn't help but doubt herself: Could it be that my judgment was wrong?
Before her, the vixen's face was flushed red, almost as if it were about to bleed: "No, I didn't, I... I was just playing around with him, I didn't fall in love with him!"
Zhu Yunqing was still skeptical: "Really? But I always feel like you guys... uh..."
The questioning look stirred a shy feeling in Hua Caiyan's heart, almost driving her mad. At this moment, in order to distance herself from the situation, this vixen made a bold statement without leaving any room for retreat: "What I, Hua Caiyan, value most is sisterly affection. I would never do something like seducing my own sister's man for my own selfish reasons!"
Zhu Yunqing was skeptical. She looked the fox up and down, and seeing that even though her cheeks were red, she held her head high and looked upright, as if she were honest and had a clear conscience, she suppressed her doubts and nodded gently: "Uh, okay, then it seems that I did misunderstand."
Hua Caiyan breathed a sigh of relief, but when she lowered her head, her flushed cheeks had not yet completely calmed down.
She silently warned herself that since she had made a promise, she must keep it and never be a fox who breaks his word and becomes greedy.
Well, I'm a loyal and good fox, so this dark and twisted relationship with Yun Chu'an should also come to an end.
As this thought arose in her mind, an indescribable sadness and loss welled up in her heart, making her nose tingle and leaving her with no interest in anything else.
Zhu Yunqing chatted with her for a few more minutes, then took her hand and went out. They found Yun Chuan, Liu Mengshen, and the others, and exchanged greetings to let each other know they were safe. Everyone was overjoyed.
However, not all the news was good. That day, the eldest sister, Ye Jinglan, was bitten by the second sister and poisoned with the extreme yin poison of the second sister's late-stage Foundation Establishment stage. Although her life was not in danger for the time being, it would be very troublesome to deal with, so she could not go home for the time being.
This news brought everyone, who were still excited, to a standstill. They realized that the aftermath of the second sister's betrayal had not completely subsided, and they would have to proceed with caution for some time to come.
However, Zhu Yunqing did not emphasize these unpleasant things too much. It was already late, and the night had enveloped the earth. The moonlight shone on the fragrant grass in the mountains. The spider spirit told them to go back and rest assured, as she would take care of things here.
After saying that, she turned and left. Hua Caiyan stared at Yun Chuan's profile, her heart surging with emotions. She wanted to tell him to break off their relationship, but the words stuck in her throat, and she couldn't say them.
At this moment, Yun Chuan suddenly spoke up, saying, "Meng Shen, you take Qi Qiao back first. Your fifth sister and I still have some things to talk about."
Liu Meng nodded. They were used to the two of them often being together, plotting to deal with snake demons and the like, so they didn't find it strange. They turned around and took Qi Qiao's hand to go back together.
In the stillness of the night, with the lonely moon hanging high, Hua Caiyan gazed at him, trying to encourage herself and muster the courage to part ways with him—but the more she thought about it, the more wronged and sad she felt, resisting her own heart and unwilling to think that way.
Chapter 188 Fireworks, Heartbeat
Yun Chu'an seemed completely oblivious to her change in mood. He took out a huge square box from his storage bag and said, "Fifth Sister, come here and see what I've prepared!"
Hua Caiyan's carefully crafted emotions were interrupted, and she was secretly pleased with it. She moved closer to him and saw him open the box, inside which were bundles of fireworks.
"You even prepared something like this?"
She was immediately surprised, to which Yun Chuan smiled slightly: "Of course, I have been looking forward to this moment all along. I'm finally home, so I have to celebrate properly."
As he spoke, his tone was tinged with regret: "It's a pity that Fourth Sister left before I could even say anything about it. Meng Shen and Qi Qiao don't like them, and these fireworks can't be left out for long; if they get damp, they're essentially ineffective, so..."
As he spoke, he took out the fireworks: "Fifth Sister, let's set them off tonight!"
This was the way he had come up with to celebrate, but unfortunately he had overlooked the ethnicity of Liu Mengshen and Qi Qiao. They didn't like this kind of lively celebration, which made him a little embarrassed.
He was even a little nervous at this moment, afraid that the fox was also timid and afraid of fireworks.
In this way, all his careful preparations were in vain.
Thankfully, that didn't happen. Hua Caiyan stared at the fireworks in the box, feeling her heart tremble.
She was reminiscing, recalling the happy times she spent setting off fireworks with her mother when she was a child. Her nose tingled and her eyes reddened.
She forced back her tears, sniffled, and suddenly flashed a bright smile: "Okay, let's start playing then."
As she spoke, she helped him take out a huge cylindrical firework from the box, placed it on the open ground in front of Huai Mountain Town, and lit it.
Brilliant fireworks burst forth from within, soaring more than three meters high in the blink of an eye, resembling a fiery tree, continuously spraying dazzling sparks and flashes in all directions.
Although Yun Chuan didn't buy the kind of fireworks that could shoot straight into the sky and explode into a dazzling display in order to avoid being too high-profile, even these fireworks that could only be set off on the ground were beautiful enough.
The dazzling light was brilliant and beautiful, illuminating everything around it, including Hua Caiyan's rosy face.
Yun Chu'an handed her a few small fireworks, then took some himself, lit them, and set them off. The joy of reunion intertwined with the pleasure of setting off fireworks. For a moment, the fox spirit couldn't distinguish whether she was happy because of reuniting with her family or because of the fireworks.
It's still because of him.
The fireworks were dazzling and brilliant, and the seemingly vast reserves were quickly depleted. Finally, Yun Chu'an brought out several large, cylindrical fireworks and placed them on the open ground outside his Huai Shan Town. The five fireworks were lit at the same time, and five pillars of fire shot into the sky, almost illuminating the entire town.
He smiled as he admired the firelight, while Hua Caiyan, looking at his profile, felt her heart melt into a vast ocean, no longer remembering her earlier determination to say something to him.
"Alright, that's all done!"
After the five beams of light disappeared, he clapped his hands and was about to go back.
However, at this moment, Hua Caiyan suddenly spoke up: "Wait a minute, don't go yet."
Yun Chu'an looked at her, puzzled. This vixen had made up her mind, yet now she was suddenly calm, without tension or excitement, simply accepting her fate.
She naturally took Yun Chuan'an's hand and turned to face him, saying, "I can't sleep. Come walk with me outside."
Without giving him a chance to refuse, she took his hand and led him outside. Yun Chu'an did not disobey, and held her soft little hand as they walked together to the hillside outside.
The lush green grass grew freely here. Hua Caiyan led him to sit down on the grass. The full moon hung high in the sky. She rested her face in her small hands, gazing at the sky, her mind blank. She didn't say much, as if simply being in a daze with him was her greatest joy.
Her petite body was pressed against Yun Chu'an's, and the latter, seeing her in a daze, reached out and pulled her into his arms.
The fox didn't resist and nestled into his arms. Yun Chu'an then lay down on the grass, and the two of them lay down together, their eyes meeting. He saw that Hua Caiyan's eyes were warm and gentle, with a sparkling light of affection in her pupils.
"I'm so happy, Chu'an." Her thin lips parted slightly, and she suddenly said softly, but she only said half of what she meant. The unspoken part was, "You can be even bolder."
Yun Chu'an's heart raced uncontrollably. He carefully leaned in and pressed his forehead against hers. Their noses touched, and a blush of shyness returned to the little fox's face.
She closed her eyes, letting him take her as he pleased, so he didn't hesitate, lowered his head, and kissed her soft lips.
Hua Caiyan's small mouth was very soft, and it tasted somewhat sweet. In fact, since their last kiss, their relationship had become much closer, and when their feelings were intense, he would often taste her small mouth.
Even so, each kiss from the fox still brought him a different and novel sensation, making him curious, happy, infatuated, and unable to stop.
He gently pried open her pearly white teeth and slipped his tongue into her mouth. Hua Caiyan's delicate tongue was ready, extending willingly to intertwine with his, licking his lips and reveling in its exquisite pleasure.
She liked this feeling, especially after this joyful reunion, and she hoped to use it to release the love that had swelled within her to the point of being uncontrollable.
Yun Chu'an held her soft body in his arms, his hands pressed against her deliberately exposed pink back, which was only sparsely adorned with a few ribbons. He pinched the thread that tightly bound everything and gently pulled it, causing the dress that clung to her body to come loose, allowing him to caress and play with her slightly warm skin.
His large hand slipped under the back of her dress, his rough fingers gently kneading and rubbing her skin, leaving red marks on her delicate, soft, baby-like back.
Hua Caiyan's breathing was a little heavy. She leaned back slightly, separating her lips from his. Yun Chu'an was not impatient. He quietly watched her face and saw the girl slowly open her eyes. As soon as she saw him, the joy and anticipation in her eyes almost overflowed uncontrollably.
“You’re awful,” she whispered.
"It's because you're so beautiful, Fifth Sister," Yun Chu'an whispered in response, feeling her heart drawing ever closer to her soul. "You're so lovable."

Chapter 189 Fifth Sister on the Grassland
At this moment, only praise would be safe and effective, and it was also the best way to lower the vixen's guard. Hua Caiyan lowered her head and spat out a word of "slick talk," but the satisfaction in her eyes seemed to melt into tears.
She had never intended to resist from the beginning, and now, after hearing his words, her passion was ignited even more.
Yun Chu'an lowered his head and gently kissed her cheek, then moved his hands down to kiss her neck and shoulders. His large hand reached back and unhooked the bra on her back, and the cute pink half-cup bra came off her small, delicate breasts, which were now partially exposed to his eyes.
He reached out and ripped her bra off completely, causing her breasts to stand up slightly. Even though she was lying on the ground, the upward curve was still visible.
At the nipple, two bright red cherries were now engorged and hard, seemingly glowing faintly red in the quiet of the night.
Yun Chu'an eagerly reached out and grabbed one of them. The soft sensation came from his rough fingers. He pinched one of the nipples with his fingertips and gently rubbed it back and forth.
"Um……"
A tingling, pleasurable sensation surged from the nipple, spreading into her mind. Hua Caiyan let out a soft moan, but then Yun Chu'an opened her mouth wide, taking the other nipple into her mouth, licking and biting it, sucking it back and forth.
The wonderful sensation made her both annoyed and amused: "You're so strange, I don't even have any milk... ah... yet you still want to suck..."
She complained that every time he sucked on her nipples like that, the strange sensation that kept coming from them made her feel both comfortable and uncomfortable, both resistant and enjoyable.
A tingling, itchy sensation spread throughout her body, causing her to react. Her slender legs under her skirt involuntarily tightened, and her most private parts began to itch and react.
Her body was already anticipating, anticipating an even more intense and passionate union to come.
"Because I'm too tired."
While suckling at her nipple, Yun Chu'an responded to her question indistinctly: "It's so tiring to scheme against the snake demons every day. I need to clear my mind and rest now, and return to the most carefree state of a baby."
Hua Caiyan spat again, her face growing increasingly red: "So you want to drink milk, is that it? How could you come up with such an excuse... Ah... Shameless..."
