The daily life of the crew of "Beasts".

As afternoon approached, the school bell rang for the end of the school term at a junior high school.

Inside the classroom, Seventy-Seven was packing his schoolbag while secretly making plans.

Ever since he learned a lot about Fei Fei at the wedding, he had been wanting to visit her, but he had to go to school these past two days and hadn't had the chance to go out.

—Tomorrow's the weekend, let's go out and have some fun in the village again. And we'll bring the four-legged creature along.

He hadn't forgotten the Great Qilin who was on his side; tomorrow, he would learn the three brothers' unspeakable secret together with him.

Seventy-Seven glanced at Bai Jie out of the corner of his eye and felt a strange sense of excitement.

"Okay, let's go."

Bai Jie slung his backpack over his back, grabbed Seventy-Seven by the arm, and pulled him outside.

"Hey, hey, hey, Third Master, Fourth Master, wait for me!" Yue Tian hurriedly stuffed his things into his schoolbag, picked it up, and rushed after him.

The wind rushed into the room through the wide-open wooden door. The three beasts came to the doorway, and Seventy-Seven instinctively looked back. Their seats in front of them were empty; the three little beasts hadn't appeared all day.

"Did Walnut and the others go to film again today? Why is Fu-zai nowhere to be seen?"

"Fuzai is also acting, but her role is smaller than Walnut's. Recently, the director arranged for her to make a brief comeback."

Bai Jie casually explained as he walked towards the school gate, where a large, ethereal white Qilin, attracting everyone's attention, smiled and waved.

"Sun Block Moon Moon, over here, over here!"

at the same time,

Crew.

"Waaaaah, after all this hard work, my role has finally been expanded!" Mu clutched his chest on the grass, tears streaming down his face.

They had just finished filming and heard Puss in Boots' plans for their next move. Fuk-jai returned to Japan by plane after his comeback, while she stayed at the Deer Man store because she had no money.

From a background character to a regular supporting role, and even with the opportunity to participate in the main storyline in the future, I'm moved to tears.

"Alright, alright, don't cry, Mu-san. You'll definitely succeed if you work so hard," Shota patted him and comforted him softly.

far away,

Meimei watched this scene and whispered to Walnut, "I bet five cents that the director will pair them up as a couple later on."

"What? Why?" Xiao Mengji looked completely bewildered.

"It feels so familiar. After your childhood sweetheart ran off with someone else, you were always there to take care of her male friends."

"Oh! So the fox is like the second male lead in romance novels, right? But these kinds of characters aren't ordinary; do they all remain unmarried for life?"

Meimei's lips twitched, and she turned her head to stare at him with wide eyes, "Where did you see all this?!"

Walnut knew far more than he had imagined.

"It was Sister Feifei who taught Walnut..."

"Walnut! Come play with me!"

Walnut was interrupted by Fuzai's shout before he could finish speaking. He paused, his eyes lit up, greeted Meimei, and ran off.

"Meimei. I'm going to play with Fuzai now!"

His figure ran further and further away. He met up with the little fox not far away, exchanged a few words, and then left happily together. Meimei pouted and muttered something under her breath.

"Forget your friends when you see a beautiful woman."

"Meimei! Come here for a second, I need to talk to you about something!"

Puss in Boots' voice came from the other side. His expression changed instantly, and he ran over with a big smile.

"Hey, director, what can I do for you? Don't worry, I'll take care of it."

Puss in Boots shook his head, took out a newly written script from his pocket and handed it over, "It's nothing, I've recently found a new role, I'm just showing you the script in advance."

The black-covered script fell into her hands, and Meimei hugged it to her chest earnestly and nodded, "Okay, director, I will definitely practice in advance."

After finishing his instructions, Puss in Boots hurriedly left. Mimi greeted him with a few words of concern and saw him off. After he left, she curiously lowered her head and opened the script.

The first thing you see is a full-body photo. It has a slender, fox-like body, one eye closed, and four horns that slant backward on both sides of its back. It has a very calm and serene demeanor.

—Why is it another fox? There are already so many foxes on set. If there's another one, won't I just blend into the background and get completely overlooked?

Meimei, her thoughts racing, continued reading and came across a passage that was similar to her own thoughts.

His expression stiffened.

—No? What a coincidence? It seems the screenwriter is also a side project for the sugar daddy. Does the sugar daddy have the ability to predict the future?

……

that night,

Seventy-Seven took the opportunity of going out for dinner to go out alone with Four-Faced Beast.

The sky was filled with the chill of the setting sun, and the two beasts were eating the clouds that were tinged with fiery red by the twilight. Seventy-Seven took a few bites to fill his stomach and then spoke.

"Four-Faced Beasts, I know where to find out about Dad and the others' secrets. That little guy in the village named Feifei knows a lot."

"I made an appointment with Yue Tian. He'll take me tomorrow, and he'll bring you along too."

"Puh, cough, cough, cough!"

Si Bu Xiang choked on a mouthful of cloud dew, coughing uncontrollably. All the air in his lungs was expelled, and his chest felt tight. He suddenly took a deep breath and turned his head in shock.

"Little Cube, did you really do what I told you to do?"

Seventy-seven nodded, naturally raising her eyes to meet his gaze. "Yes, I noticed at the wedding a couple of days ago that Bai Jie was particularly afraid of her saying anything inappropriate, so I inquired about it."

How did you find out?

"Of course, just ask directly."

Si Bu Xiang was speechless after being choked by this answer. After a moment of awkwardness, he finally managed a forced smile.

"That little square, I was just joking back then. Prying into other people's secrets... that's not a good thing. Maybe we should just forget about it?"

"Hmm~ No way!" Seventy-seven shook his head firmly.

Having come this far, how could I possibly give up?

Then he clasped his hands together, his eyes softened, and he looked at the Four-Faced Beast pitifully, his tone pleading.

"I really want to have a relationship like Tianlu Baijie Bixie, please, just this once, just this once, okay?"

"Uh……"

Si Bu Xiang hesitated for a while, but finally softened and agreed after Qi Shi Qi's repeated pleading and cajoling.

the next day,

Pixiu at home.

After Seventy-Seven finished eating the Immortal Dew that Four-Unlikes had brought back, he stood guard at the gate. Bai Jie, who was holding his phone and about to go back inside, looked at him with a puzzled expression.

"Seventy-seven, aren't you going to play games with me?"

"No need, I've already made plans to go out with Yue Tian today."

"Going out to play?"

Tianlu jumped off the chair, intending to follow Baijie into the house, but upon hearing this, he immediately stopped in his tracks, his eyes lighting up as he jogged over, "How can you go out to play without me!"

Seventy-seven's natural expression froze. As the other person excitedly moved closer, his body stiffened slightly, and fine beads of cold sweat appeared on his forehead.

The Four-Faced Beast was helping the Evil-Repelling Demon tidy up the table when its claws paused in mid-air, but it quickly continued tidying up as if nothing had happened.

The two beasts had the same thought almost simultaneously.

—I absolutely can't bring Dad (the one with the blue circle) today!

Seventy-seven opened his mouth nervously, his eyes darting around, but he didn't know how to refuse tactfully. Fortunately, Si Bu Xiang had already stacked the bowls and chopsticks and came over in time, trying to smooth things over with a dry laugh.

"Oh dear, Xiao Qiqi probably won't be interested in the little blue circle when she goes out to play. She doesn't need to go; I'll go with her."

Tianlu gave him a strange look. "What? You think I'm definitely not interested? It sounds like you just don't want me to go."

Both beasts immediately broke out in a cold sweat.

—How did we get discovered so quickly?

Bixie picked up the bowl and chopsticks on the table, glanced over here, and sighed helplessly, "You guys are being too obvious."

After saying that, he turned and went into the kitchen, leaving the dining room in an awkward atmosphere.

The three beasts stared at each other, while the four-faced creature and the seventy-seven frantically tried to communicate with each other. However, the two beasts, lacking tacit understanding, not only failed to communicate successfully but also made their attempt to conceal their true intentions even more obvious.

"You guys aren't planning to do something behind our backs, are you?"

Tianlu approached with a gloomy expression, his eyes narrowed, half of his face hidden in shadow, and his tone became sinister and low.

Seventy-Seven swallowed nervously, the hairs on the back of his neck standing on end. Tianlu's approaching aura pressed down on him, causing him to take a step back and instinctively tug at the tail of the Four-Faced Beast.

But when he looked up, he found that the other person was performing even worse than him, and his feelings were written all over his face.

"You two wouldn't be..."

Tianlu's words were drawn out, and the gloomy atmosphere made the oppressive atmosphere spread. Seventy-seven couldn't withstand the pressure and opened his mouth for a long time before forcing himself to tell the truth.

"Well... actually..."

"You're not planning to sneak out and eat something delicious without telling us, are you?" Tianlu interrupted, puffing out his cheeks in dissatisfaction.

"Uh."

Seventy-seven choked, his open mouth stuck somewhere. Four-Faced Beast, with its mouth slightly open, had the same expression, both looking completely bewildered.

"Hmph, I knew it, didn't I?"

Tianlu raised his face from the shadows, his claws outstretched, pointing his index finger at the two beasts, his eyes filled with wisdom.

"Ah... ah yes yes yes, we're going out for a nice meal. Little Blue Circle is so smart, you even guessed that." Si Bu Xiang wiped away his cold sweat and chuckled awkwardly.

"Hmph, so what do you want to eat? Hurry up and take me there."

Tianlu raised its chin slightly and made a smug nasal sound. Baijie couldn't stand it anymore, so he grabbed its tail and pulled it away.

"Okay, you promised to play with me today, so you're not allowed to go out!"

"Ouch, ouch, ouch! Bai Jie, pull gently, it hurts! You guys! Remember to bring me something to eat when you come back, and remember to give Bai Jie and Bi Xie their share too!"

"call--"

Seventy-Seven and the Four Unseen Brothers entered the bedroom amidst playful bickering, letting out a long sigh of relief. The bedroom door slammed shut, and only then did Seventy-Seven relax and plop down on the floor.

—Dad is so childish.

"Boom boom boom!"

"Fourth Master, Sister-in-law, I'm here!"

Both beasts were delighted to hear Yue Tian's voice, but then the Four-Unlikes couldn't help but shout in embarrassment and anger at the other's address.

"Little Yueyue already said not to shout like that!"

The talisman in the kitchen seemed to ignore everything, as if it couldn't hear anything, and the person buried themselves in washing the dishes, oblivious to the strange conversation outside.

Soon, the sound of the door opening and closing came, and he slowed down again after slightly increasing his speed.

at the same time,

In the bedroom.

Bai Jie's phone was flashing rapidly, accompanied by a constant stream of game sound effects. His eyes were reflected in the screen, but every now and then he would drift off into a daze. He glanced at his side out of the corner of his eye.

Tianlu was also staring intently at the screen, but his character had already died, and his shifty gaze indicated he was just pretending.

"Tianlu".

Bai Jie called out to him, a question that had been weighing on his mind for a long time, and he couldn't help but ask it.

"Didn't you notice that 77 and 4 don't look alike?"

"I realized that they were just using my words to fool me at the end."

Tianlu raised his eyebrows from behind his phone and said matter-of-factly.

Bai Jie turned to look at him with a face full of astonishment, as if she had seen something earth-shattering.

"Bai Jie, what's with that expression?! I'm just a glutton, not stupid. How could I not see through their obvious behavior?"

Tianlu was a little angry; his younger brother's gaze made him feel insulted.

"Then why didn't you wait for him to finish?" Bai Jie asked in bewilderment.

Upon hearing this, Tianlu stopped pretending, put down his phone, and confidently raised his head.

"Because in my experience, if we let them actually say it in this situation, we'll probably be embarrassed along with them."

Bai Jie was stunned. His lips moved for a long time, but he couldn't find any words to refute him. After a while, he muttered to himself.

"It seems that it really is? I'm speechless."

"Of course, my IQ is at least in the top three in the whole group!" Tianlu tossed his head, his tail wagging proudly.

"Uh... there are only 4 Pixiu in total, right? So you mean you're at the bottom except for Seventy-Seven?"

"Huh?! I, I didn't mean that! At least... at least I'm smarter than Bai Jie, how could an older brother be worse than a younger brother?"

"Hey!"
