Let me Touch your Tail

Chapter 108

Demon Realm, Qingqiu.

"Your Highness, the princess is missing again."

The demon soldier reported the latest news to Tu Shan Yu.

At this moment, Tu Shan Yu was sitting at a table, holding a sound transmission jade.

The voice of Bai Jin drifted from the jade: "I've gone to the human realm. I'm going to find my cousin. Don't think about me, cousin!"

Tu Shan Yu frowned in distress.

Not long after the Fox Emperor left, Bai Jin had started insisting on going to the human realm to find Ren Qingyue.

Tu Shan Yu needed to stay in the demon palace to handle state affairs on behalf of his father, so he couldn't accompany Bai Jin on her wild escapades. He also worried that Bai Jin might encounter trouble in the human realm by herself, so he had always refused.

Bai Jin had tried several times to sneak out of the demon palace, but was stopped by the attendants Tu Shan Yu sent to guard her. Unexpectedly, after such a long time, she still had not given up.

In fact, three months had passed since she was last caught trying to leave.

He thought Bai Jin had finally come to her senses and given up, but it turned out to be just a false alarm to lower their guard.

Just now, his guards discovered Bai Jin was not in the palace. The presence they had been sensing was actually a fake fox made from Bai Jin's own fur.

Since Tu Shan Yu received a transmission from Bai Jin, it meant she had already left the Qingqiu territory. It was too late to send people to chase after her now.

Tu Shan Yu furrowed his brows in worry.

Even though he had received news about his younger sister, Bai Jin had been under his care since she was little. He had long treated her as if she were his own sister.

Bai Jin's mischievous behavior was largely his responsibility; it was something he had indulged in.

At this moment, the sound of greetings came from the hall door.

The Empress and Emperor entered the hall gracefully. Seeing Tu Shan Yu's worried expression, the Empress immediately guessed what had happened and asked with a smile, "Has Jin'er caused trouble again?"

"She has gone to the human realm," Tu Shan Yu reported Bai Jin's whereabouts honestly, "My people couldn't stop her."

The Empress seemed unsurprised: "I told you long ago, if she truly wants to go, you can't stop her."

Tu Shan Yu shook his head and sighed, "But I'm afraid she'll get hurt, or end up in a situation like before..."

These words evoked a painful memory. Tu Shan Yu fell silent midway, his expression apologetic as he bowed to the Empress, "I'm sorry, Mother..."

The Empress maintained her usual demeanor, placing her hands over his tightly clenched fists on the table, and suggested, "Yuer, if you truly can't rest easy, why don't you go see for yourself?"

Tu Shan Yu was obviously tempted but hesitated, "But..."

He glanced at the high stack of documents on the table, which needed to be reviewed before morning.

The Empress's usually gentle expression suddenly showed a bit of sternness.

She casually opened a document and said to Tu Shan Yu, "Yuer, didn't your father tell you? If it weren't for me feeling that the clan's mundane affairs were too cumbersome and leaving them all to your father, would you and your father be where you are today?"
