He realized he had become a scapegoat and secretly swore to Mazu and the Fox Master: whoever helps him through this crisis, when he returns to the world, he will be heaven’s first, and the one who helped him will be heaven’s second!）】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Holy shit! I’m literally speechless!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You guy, when you were staring at that big ass in the bar, you didn’t remember the Fox Master—but now you’re stuck in jail and suddenly remember me?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the wish on the list, An Sheng’s joyful expression froze, his lips twitching slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the details of the wish list, one could roughly infer Chen Nian’s recent situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He earned money quickly and spent lavishly, constantly visiting high-end venues, unintentionally attracting some gang members who began following him, gradually forming a small group with a battlefield medic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But due to infighting within the gang, his boss framed him for tax evasion and threw him in jail.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You ignored An’s presence when you had that big ass—now you’re finally getting your comeuppance?” An Sheng remarked sarcastically.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That guy Chen Nian probably never suffered such a huge loss in his entire life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Regarding Chen Nian, during the time he rose to RPG emperor, An Sheng had inquired about his family back in the village.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His father had made money by leasing tea fields early on; after the lease expired, he invested his multi-million cash into tea-related infrastructure in Zhangxizhen and now simply waits for dividends each year.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His mother was some head nurse or chief nursing officer, reportedly with wide connections.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Nian wasn’t born with a silver spoon in his mouth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he was comfortably well-off, never having suffered a setback in his life—his only real loss was probably when he waved his hands for likes and still got no traffic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That time someone falsely accused him of sneaking photos doesn’t count—he smashed their face so badly it swelled, and those suck-ups were dragged down and rubbed into the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He got suspended for it, turning what was already a slacker into an American expat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Since you’ve eaten eggs cooked by your mom, the Fox Master will lend you a hand—but whether you get out, I can’t guarantee.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An Sheng shook his head; Chen Nian was in America, and his family’s connections and money had zero influence over there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Better ask Lin Ying for help—get a good lawyer to push for Chen Nian’s deportation!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Deportation for illegal smuggling and jail time is still better than being turned into a crispy soufflé in America.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Xiao An! Look over here at the camera!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As An Sheng was lost in thought about Chen Nian, Yu Xueqing, sitting at the tea stall, called out to him:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Say hello to the uncles and aunts in the livestream! Today, we’re taking our viewers along to watch the tea competition.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mmm!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An Sheng glanced into the livestream—Yu Xueqing’s account, after this period of operation, had gathered roughly three thousand followers, and since today was the weekend, about a hundred people were watching.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An Sheng shifted his position, crouched on the table, scanned the surface, then froze and asked Yu Xueqing: “Where’s the tea? Where are our tea leaves?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the tea stall table, besides the tea set, there was no trace of any tea leaves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An Sheng looked at Yu Xueqing, utterly baffled, as she held her phone live-streaming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Master, master~ We’re hunting, right? Foxie didn’t see any bait! Are you planning to rip open the prey’s skull with your bare hands?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fox’s puzzled mewl transformed into a questioning thought that slipped into Yu Xueqing’s mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The tea leaves are with Dad, but today we’re not livestreaming about tea.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Xueqing frowned slightly, glanced at Mo Yiqing beside her, and said with a hint of defiance:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mo Mo says selling tea will starve us—better to switch to pet streaming while our follower count is still low.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“She says, since we’re selling stuff either way, we might as well stream something more interesting to attract more attention—and that’ll increase the chance of selling tea.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Focusing on tea culture might draw a niche audience.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But tea culture is inherently a minor interest on platforms targeting young people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You talk so much—then let me ask you:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Is your tea more enjoyable to drink, or my three-yuan bottle of iced black tea?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially after seeing Yu Xueqing’s pay stub, Mo Yiqing advised her to switch lanes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Forget vertical categories—your viewers who actually spend and tip only show up when the little fox appears. And as a pet streamer, you have a natural advantage and talent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seriously, don’t do tea culture livestreams—go sit next to the fishermen and use your ability to talk to animals to summon a whole school of fish and humiliate them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I swear on my chest—it’ll go viral!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mo Yiqing urged Yu Xueqing to try it and offered to tip her to boost her popularity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Xueqing was somewhat persuaded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was never one to sit still—sitting primly at the tea table every day was suffocating; if left to choose, she’d rather play on the mountains or by the pond.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So we’re switching to… fox ass sales?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An Sheng stared blankly at Yu Xueqing, then thought deeply: “If we’re selling fox ass, we’re close friends, sure—but we need to renegotiate the salary split!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“After all—hey, hey, hey?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An Sheng was still joking seriously when Yu Xueqing suddenly picked him up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She placed him on her shoulder and signaled the fox to step onto her shoulder bag.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Xueqing ate three bowls of rice, and though she had no other standout traits, her strength could leave An Sheng stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Carrying a fourteen-pound fox on one shoulder was nothing to Yu Xueqing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Go try it! I’ll watch the tea stall for you!” Mo Yiqing called out with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mm!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Xueqing nodded firmly, and before leaving, gave her best friend a gentle hug, feeling a touch of emotion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although she hadn’t lived on campus in high school,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Xueqing had heard all sorts of bizarre stories from dorm students—even one who brought her boyfriend back and threw a sex party right in the dorm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For college, Yu Xueqing didn’t have high expectations for her roommate—just hoped to meet someone normal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After three years together,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>time had proven her roommates weren’t just normal—they were all kind-hearted people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The wealthy, generous Mo Mo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The affectionate, playful Ling Ren.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tang You, the cyber warfare Tian Kehan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Xiao An! Try this!” Freed from the tea master’s poise, Yu Xueqing wandered the venue, rushing over to anything that caught her interest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Xueqing picked up a disposable spoon from the tea stall, took a small sip of their Tieguanyin, and tasted it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After tasting, she naturally blew on it and handed it to An Sheng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Pfft—”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An Sheng took a sip and immediately spat it out, pouting: “Ugh! Burned too hard and sold straight out—tastes like wood ash and lye!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Our Fox Master doesn’t like it!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Xueqing rubbed against the little fox, grinning, and declared confidently to the livestream viewers:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1198,"2026-06-20T23:19:16.017Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","2cabc9ac4c1fc73a2dc524d2c3caca316d0c2b8520671818f45928a89ec37c69","the-fox-has-no-malicious-intent-chapter-179","the-fox-has-no-malicious-intent-chapter-177",354,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-fox-has-no-malicious-intent-cover.jpg"]
