"Any bad news?" Yan Xiaobao asked the fox that was shaking its head vigorously. "How could it be wrong if it's not bad news?" Yan Xiaobao laughed, as he also shook his head. He didn't doubt that the fox was as smart as anyone else, but communication issues made it impossible for Yan Xiaobao to know what the fox wanted.
"Sha Yun hasn't returned yet. I want to go out and start looking for her, but I really don't know where to look. Gao Yan sent his experts to scour every corner of the grave, but even so, there was no sign of her... I really don't know what to do." He said, as he buried his face in the soft fur, guilt gnawing at his heart.
The little fox gently nudged Yan Xiaobao with her nose, her eyes full of concern for the young man.
Yan Xiaobao returned from the fox, smiling at the adorable creature. "I don't understand why you chose me," he began speaking again, "but I'm glad you did. I just don't know what I can do for you; compared to your previous master, I'm nothing."
