Seeing this, Yuuko helplessly picked up the Little Fox: "Little Fox, you're still very impolite to outsiders, aren't you...?"
After speaking, Yuuko also apologized to Paimon with a hint of regret:
"Sorry, Paimon, my Little Fox doesn't seem to be affectionate with anyone except me. I thought it wouldn't mind if you were a cup, but it still doesn't like you."
Paimon flew into the air resentfully, creating some distance from the Little Fox:
"No! This isn't a matter of liking or disliking! It was glaring at me with a terrifying look just now!"
Yuuko was slightly stunned, then laughed, "How could that be? The Little Fox is at most unwelcoming to outsiders; it's very kind."
"No! It bared its teeth at me again just now! Uwah!" Paimon's face was pale as he continuously retreated.
Yuuko sighed helplessly at this:
"Little Fox, why are you always hostile to others? Why do you seem unwelcoming to everyone?"
The Little Fox let out a dissatisfied cry, then continued to bare its teeth at Paimon, seemingly threatening him.
"Uwah! Did you see that? It bared its teeth at me again!" Paimon trembled with fright.
Completely helpless, Yuuko stopped trying to persuade it.
"Forget it, let's eat."
So, then one person and two pets began to eat dinner.
However, probably because of the Little Fox's presence, Paimon didn't enjoy his dinner at all tonight.
Every time he went to pick up a dish, he had to be careful and look at the Little Fox, making sure it wasn't baring its teeth at him... Seeing this, Yuuko felt a little relieved.
He had originally worried that Paimon might bully the Little Fox, but now it seemed that Paimon was the one who would be bullied.
Then there was no problem.
For future matters, during dinner, Yuuko solemnly spoke to the two pets:
"Alright, Paimon, Little Fox, there's something I hope you'll listen to carefully."
Only after both the Little Fox and Paimon looked at him with confusion did Yuuko begin:
"Inazuma might not be peaceful later, Little Fox, don't run around too much usually, I'm quite worried."
"And Paimon, you also stay home and guard the house properly, and take good care of the Little Fox, understood?"
Paimon pouted unhappily: "Why do I feel like your attitude towards me is completely different from your attitude towards it!"
"Because the Little Fox, as a pet, can be petted, but you, Paimon, as a cup, cannot be hugged," Yuuko said as a matter of course.
"So annoying! Is this differential treatment?! And I'm not a cup!" Paimon stomped his feet in anger.
Yuuko ignored him and looked at the Little Fox, saying softly:
"Understood, Little Fox? I'm very worried about you."
The Little Fox remained silent for a long time, finally pressing its head against Yuuko's hand, continuously rubbing its fluffy head against his hand.
Its meaning was probably that he didn't need to worry.
"You... forget it, let's continue eating."
Anyway, he would be home these few days, so if the Little Fox wanted to go out, he would just stop it slightly.
So, then one person and two pets once again began to enjoy their dinner harmoniously.
After eating their fill, Yuuko simply washed the dishes.
Then, he casually picked up the Little Fox and said just as casually:
"It's getting late, let's take a bath."
And the Little Fox didn't resist.
Seeing this, Yuuko was overjoyed.
Sure enough, his previous efforts weren't in vain; now the Little Fox no longer resisted bathing with him!
However, just as one person and one fox were about to enter the bathroom.
Paimon asked curiously, "Do you two usually bathe together?"
Yuuko laughed, "Yes, what's wrong with bathing with a pet?"
Paimon was about to say something when he saw the Little Fox bare its teeth at him, revealing an unfriendly expression.
Paimon quickly backed away, waving his hands repeatedly:
"Nothing! Nothing! Please, go ahead!"
Yuuko looked at Paimon strangely, always feeling that Paimon's attitude was odd, especially his attitude towards the Little Fox.
But he didn't think too much about it and directly took the Little Fox into the bathroom.
Paimon, meanwhile, remained in the living room, chin in hand, with a very confused expression:
"Strange... why does that fox's aura feel so similar to that pink, mischievous woman's aura from before...?"
"My sense of smell is very sensitive; I shouldn't be wrong, right?"
