The Nine Tails Fox lady and Yun’er were stumped.

Based on the alluring melody of the instrument, it was evident that the lyrics were supposed to be touching and beautiful. Why did this cursed monkey start singing stupid lyrics like these to ruin the song? And… The lyrics sounded like he was trying to coax a child to sleep. Wouldn't he cause the problem to worsen?

At that point, Yun’er hurriedly intervened and spoke out, "Sun… Wu Kong, what are you doing? Didn't I tell you not to call her a little rabbit? She will really get mad."

"Be good little rabbit, open the door…" Xu Que ignored her and continued singing, his voice started taking a brighter and happier tone. His voice was trembling in vibrato, clearly immersed in his music.

The White Fox lady folded her arms and shook her head as she mumbled, "Sun Wu Kong, you're finished. Xiao Yu will come out and bite you. Anyway you are forbidden to retaliate when she does!"

"Crkkkk!"

All of a sudden, the wooden door to Xiao Yu’s house opened with a creak.

The White Fox lady and Yun’er seemed to have expected this and shot Xu Que a sympathetic glance as they turned their heads towards the door.

A little rabbit girl was standing in the doorway. She had a small pair of ears standing erect on her head. All of a sudden, she disappeared into a ray of white light and shot towards Xu Que.

Xu Que stopped playing the Qin at this point as he held the instrument with both hands and smiled plainly. He wasn't the least flustered.

"This stupid monkey is going to get bitten by Xiao Yu for sure." White Fox and Yun’er thought to themselves while feeling sympathetic for him.

However, what they saw at the next moment left them speechless.

Xiao Yu dashed out of her home and slammed hard into the embrace of Xu Que. However, she didn't bite him as everyone expected her too. Instead, tears flowed down her eyes as she mumbled, "Big brother monkey, you sing extremely well. Can you sing for me once again? Your singing made me think of my mother."

"Sure!" Xu Que patted the head of this little rabbit who looked to be around eight or nine years old as he smiled warmly at her.

Soon after, he settled his hands down on the Qin once again and started playing.

Xiao Yu grabbed on tightly to his robes as she leaned in closer towards him and closed her eyes. She seemed to feel as though she was back in her mother’s embrace once more!

In actual fact, this effect wasn’t a result of Xu Que’s singing. It was because of the Qin which he had purchased. After he acquired the One Star Musician ability, the notes he played had a special effect. Added to the fact that he sang the song in a nursery rhyme sounding melody, it caused Xiao Yu to think of her childhood years.

White Fox and Yun’er were dumbfounded. Disbelief was written all across their faces.

They had never seen this side of Xiao Yu. She was so mild and gentle now. She had always been extremely spoilt and demanding, always insisting on having her way. Although she often refined pills for the entire race, she would always fly into an intense rage whenever she failed in making a batch. Whoever disturbed her while she was in that state would get bitten severely by her.
