I Am That Little Fox [Quick Transmigration] Chapter 136: The Child Of The Film Emperor’s House (6)
“Great!” Bai Xiaoxi’s mood suddenly turned from gloomy to cheerful and she ran to Aunt Liu and announced the names of the dishes.
Aunt Liu was taking notes as she thought. She had originally thought that the employer would be indifferent to this young girl, but she didn’t expect it to be different. He had just taken away the midnight snack, and seeing that she was unhappy, he comforted her with tomorrow’s meal.
After Bai Xiaoxi ordered her dishes and returned to the dining room, Bai Yizhou was gone.
Another maid pointed upstairs. Bai Xiaoxi thanked her and ran upstairs leisurely.
The corridor on the second floor was very quiet. There were several rooms on both sides. She saw a door that was not closed. She walked over, leaned against the wall, and peeked inside. Bai Yizhou was there as expected. This was his study.
“Master…” She called out and walked in reluctantly, “There’s something I haven’t told you…” Bai Yizhou changed into home clothes and sat on the sofa with a book at hand. Hearing her words, he looked up from the book and looked at her.
Bai Xiaoxi felt a little guilty, “Actually… my last name is Bai now too…” On Mingshan Mountain, she only had the name Xiaoxi, no surname.
Unlike humans, only big monsters have surnames, and these surnames are often related to their ethnic group.
Just like Master, his name Bai Yizhou is actually the name of the settlement of the White Phoenix clan. Later, during the Nine Heavens Catastrophe, many great demon races were annihilated, and Master was the only one left in the White Phoenix clan, so his name represents the entire clan.
When Bai Xiaoxi was going down the mountain, those people told her that things were different now than before and that if the demons wanted to integrate into human society, no matter how big or small they were, they had to have a name. She didn’t think much about it and took her master’s surname without even getting his consent.
This is why she cunningly only said her first name and not her last name when she introduced herself to Aunt Liu just now.
But there is no way to avoid this matter, so it is better to confess it as soon as possible.
She thought the master would be unhappy, after all, he was the only one left of his race.
But Bai Yizhou just nodded, “I understand, your room is just across, go to bed early.”
Bai Xiaoxi was stunned for a moment, and when she realized that he had acquiesced, she jumped three feet high with joy, “Master, you also rest early, good night!”
She skipped out of the study and into the room opposite.
Bai Yizhou withdrew his gaze and was about to pick up the book again when his cell phone rang.
“Xiao Zhao.” He answered the phone and it was his agent on the other end.
“Hey, Teacher Bai. Sorry to bother you so late at night. This is what happened. Lewen just contacted me and said that a reporter took a photo of you and… tonight. I wanted to ask if we should suppress it?”
The media are unwilling to offend actors of Bai Yizhou’s level. In the past, they would just publish some groundless rumors, and netizens would not believe them, which would bring them some popularity.
But after taking pictures of the real melon tonight, they didn’t dare to take action.
“It’s okay, no need to suppress.” Bai Yizhou said.
Xiao Zhao was silent for a while, calming down his shock, and then said, “Okay, I understand. Can I ask who the other person in the photo is?”
Bai Yizhou raised his eyes. The study door was open, and the door of the opposite room was not closed tightly. The sound of Bai Xiaoxi humming happily floated out from the crack of the door and into his ears.
He said calmly: “It’s a child at home.”
