The daily life of the crew of "Beasts".

Chapter 185 Rumors are harmful! Harmful!! (Crawling in the shadows, twisting screams)

"Uh, I came to deliver the script." Bamboo was a little embarrassed. Its paws subconsciously reached into its chest, only to find nothing before it remembered that the script had already been given to the First Qilin. It quickly made amends, "I also came to take a look at Bai Jie. In addition, the script has already been given to your father."

Pi Xie nodded knowingly, then glanced at Bai Jie with a complicated expression, "I understand, but... Bai Jie, um..."

"Isn't it all your fault that she's in this state?" Bai Jie's eyes were filled with resentment, like a wronged little wife.

Bixie blushed, coughed, and turned his head away. Tianlu was more direct, his eyes bubbling with cuteness as he grabbed Baijie and licked it twice.

"Whoa! What's wrong?"

"Hehehe, Bai Jie looks so cute like this, why don't you not change back?"

"What are you saying? Shut up!!"

……

Bamboo stood at the door, secretly recording with her phone, feeling like she'd captured something incredible. If those fans saw this, they'd go crazy shipping the three of them; it seemed even the director was shipping these three here.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Shi Qilin returned to his room with the script and, having nothing better to do, casually flipped through it. The latter part of the story involved the Phoenix meeting its mate, Fenghuang, in ancient times, and how the heavens and earth created two children for them. Shi Qilin immediately perked up.

"My old buddy is coming to the film set again, and he's bringing his wife and kids along." He walked around the room, making up his mind that he would bring his whole family to visit his old buddy when the time came.

Before they knew it, it was noon. Zhu Zi sat in the Qilin Cave for a while before leaving, taking the opportunity to find out everything that had happened. The three brothers, on the other hand, were still at a loss. They had tried several times, and although Bai Jie's personality had changed, his gender had not changed back. Now that it was almost lunchtime, Bi Xie had no choice but to go and cook.

The midday sun hangs high in the sky, and the weather in May is hot. The moisture on the ground evaporates and floats into the sky, forming large clusters of white clouds.

The four-legged creature flew rapidly through the clouds under the scorching sun, its head already drenched in sweat.

"arrive."

He landed lightly on the mountain where his home was, before the Qilin Cave, as the auspicious clouds dispersed.

After months of wind and rain, the stone gate was covered with a layer of moss, and green grass and vines grew nearby. The four-legged creature stepped forward, grabbed the stone ring on the gate, and knocked on it three times.

"Dong dong dong."

"Father, Mother, I'm back!"

"Oh my, our son is back!" A joyful shout rang out from inside the door. After a brief commotion, the stone door opened.

As expected, the two Qilin from the First Jade suddenly rushed out and hugged him, causing him to stumble.

"Eldest son, you're finally back! Otherwise, it might have been too late!" Shi Qilin shouted excitedly, hanging around his neck.

The Four-Faced Ones immediately tensed up upon hearing this, "Too late? What's too late, Father? It can't be Little Sun..."

"Any later and your little sun might turn back!" Shi Qilin interrupted his son with a howl. "Father and Mother had given up hope that you would give us a baby to hold, but unexpectedly, things have taken a turn for the better!"

“Yes, son,” Yu Qilin chimed in, “Xiao Baijie is quite good. He’s cute, has a gentle temperament, and is rich. Even though he’s young, we divine beasts have long lifespans, so we can wait.”

"Father, Mother, what are you talking about?!" Si Buxiang's heart, which had been pounding with relief, was now racing with excitement as the news that followed made his blood rush to his head and his face turn bright red.

However, the two elders didn't care at all. They said things like, "Don't be so shy when you're young, or you'll never find a wife," and then pulled him into the cave to meet the three brothers who had just turned into a sister.

When they reached the door of the room, they could vaguely hear Bai Jie and Tian Lu playing games inside. Si Bu Xiang's eyes darted around. Shi Qi Lin gave him a push from behind, and he swayed and his throat bobbed twice... but he still didn't have the courage to call out to anyone.

The scene fell silent for a moment. Yu Qilin glanced at the time and hurriedly ran to the kitchen. She had come out at the last minute, and there was still food cooking in the pot.

After a while, Shi Qilin couldn't wait any longer and gave it another push. This time it wasn't as gentle as before. The Four-Faced Beast was caught off guard and fell forward, tumbling headfirst into the doorway.

"Who?!"

The brother and sister were startled and suddenly looked up.

Si Bu Xiang scrambled to his feet, only to find both Pixiu staring at him. He blushed and said awkwardly, "Little Blue Circle, Little Sun... hello there."

"Brother Four-Faced Beast!"

To his surprise, Bai Jie's eyes lit up the moment he saw him, and he pounced on him without even putting down his phone. Si Bu Xiang was startled and hurriedly caught him.

Bai Jie nestled into his arms, nuzzling his head against him. Her face was buried in his fur, and she spoke in a muffled voice, "It's been so long~"

Shi Qilin saw this scene from outside the door and smiled like an aunt, then gracefully withdrew after achieving his goal.

Sibuxiang held Baijie, and his heart skipped a beat at the cuteness. He gently stroked Baijie's smooth fur with his paws and began to speak hesitantly, "Um... Little Sun, how come you..." He stopped halfway through his sentence and remembered that his father had told him the reason before he came, but he was so shocked by the news that Little Sun had turned into a girl that he hadn't paid attention.

Tianlu, lying on the bed, stared blankly at everything that had just happened, a strange pang of sadness rising in his heart, yet he couldn't lash out. But when he saw that Sibuxiang dared to lay a hand on him, he suddenly found his excuse: "Sibuxiang, what are you doing?! Take off Bai Jie!!"

"Huh?" Before the Four-Faced Beast could react, its arms were suddenly empty.

Bai Jie wasn't angry when her body was snatched back; instead, she snuggled closer to Tian Lu, her eyes showing a hint of innocence.

"Bai Jie is mine, you're not allowed to take it!" Tianlu tightened its claws, its eyes fixed fiercely on the Four-Faced Beast.

“But Little Blue Circle and Little Sun jumped into my arms on their own initiative.”

"Hmph! I won't listen, I won't listen, you little dog chanting scriptures."

Si Bu Xiang tried to explain, but Tian Lu turned his head away, looking like a rogue.

Behind the door, the First Qilin, who appeared to have left but was actually eavesdropping, had a strange expression.

How many times did I try to open this little baiji and it still turned into a green tea b*tch? No, no, maybe I should try it myself later?

It's like opening a blind box. Every time you shape a horn, it changes its personality. Shi Qilin is going to try it himself to see if he can become a perfect daughter-in-law. Even if she doesn't become his daughter-in-law in the end, it doesn't matter. He can just consider it as gaining experience. Anyway, his eldest son will most likely be chosen from among these three brothers.

"time to eat."

Most families have an unspoken rule: no matter what the issue or conflict, a call for dinner is all it takes for a temporary truce. Bixie and Yuqilin brought out the food from the kitchen, while Baijie Tianlu and Sibuxiang walked out of the room together in a subtly tense atmosphere.

Once the family was seated, the hierarchy within the family became apparent. Shi Yu and the two Qilin kept serving food to Bai Jie, their expressions overflowing with kindness. Si Bu Xiang Zhong and Bi Xie mainly took care of their younger brother, frequently serving each other food as well, while the remaining two kept their heads down and ate their rice.

A short while later, Bai Jie peeked out from behind the mountain of food, looking resentful, "I can't eat that much."

"Children need to eat more as they grow," Yu Qilin said gently, adding another bite of food to Xiaoshan's plate.

Helpless, Bai Jie could only continue eating.

After observing the situation for a long time, Shi Qilin leaned close to Si Bu Xiang Zhong's ear and whispered, "Eldest son, do you still prefer Xiao Bi Xie?"

The Four-Faced Beast trembled slightly and quickened its eating pace, pretending to be very busy.

Shi Qilin nodded. "It seems so. It's alright, eldest son. I've already asked around. The Pixiu comes once every few hundred to a thousand years. When that time comes, Daddy will help you turn Little Bixie into a girl. What kind of personality do you want, son?"

"Father!!" Si Bu Xiang squeezed out two words through gritted teeth, his head lowered, the exposed half of his cheek already flushed red.

Upon seeing this, Shi Qilin sighed and shrank back, muttering to himself: What to do about such an introverted and shy young man?

Before they knew it, the meal was over. Although it was a bit of a pity, the family started figuring out how to restore Bai Jie to its original state.

Meanwhile, news of Zhu Zi's return from Qilin Cave gradually spread outside.

Bamboo: "Director, the sponsor was made into a girl during the casting change, but she should be able to change back."

Puss in Boots: "What? Bai Jie has started her period and turned into a girl?"

Rabbit Lord: "What? Little White has turned into a girl and is having her period?"

Feifei: "What? Baijie has turned into a girl? Does that mean he can have eggs with his two older brothers?"

Yue Tian: "What? The third leader has turned into a girl and is going to lay eggs for the eldest and second leaders?"

"Ding ding ding ding!"

His phone buzzed with notifications, messages flying through group chats and his friend list. Bai Jie's hands trembled as he scrolled through the various rumors circulating online. The most outrageous one was: Shocking! Bai Jie was in love with his two older brothers, but was rejected. In pursuit of love, he actually transformed into a girl and laid eggs for his two brothers! Right now, Tianlu and Bixie are arguing about whose child it is?!

With a soft thud, the phone fell onto the bed, the screen still displaying the message.

Bai Jie, now back to normal, had lifeless eyes, and his heart... was completely dead.
