Chapter 34 - Travel

"Roulan."

The girl mentioned groans as she looks away from the person who kept shaking her body. Her hands automatically went towards the blanket, putting it above her head as if telling the person not to disturb her.

"Roulan, it's already 3:30 in the morning; we'll be late."

"Just 5 more minutes."

Yanmei rolled her eyes and crossed her arms over her chest, her back leaning on the wall to which the bed is connected as she raised her legs on the bed.

She looks down on the girl in bed, her eyes trailing at the girl's body shape that is being hidden by the blanket.

"Father's angry already; you should get ready."

Yanmei couldn't help but shake her head, her hand going towards Roulan's blanket and pulling it away from the girl.

The half-naked Roulan groans and quickly stands up, running towards the bathroom to freshen up and get ready.

"Yanmei, I always stick to my words, so you should have just waited for 5 minutes!"

"I don't care; you need to get ready already."

Yanmei went towards the bed and fixed it before she went towards Roulan's closet and picked out her clothes.

She's humming to a random song when the bathroom door suddenly opens, and Roulan goes out with only a sports bra and a towel wrapped around her waist.

Yanmei's eyes go up and down Roulan's figure as her lips twitch into a smirk. Roulan quickly went towards Yanmei, snatching the lady boxer brief she got from her closet.

"Why would you need to do this?"

Yanmei's eyes fixed on Roulan's stomach before she looked up, seeing the girl with her eyebrows furrowed and holding the lady boxer brief she got.

"I wanted to help you get dressed."

Her hands quickly went towards the end of the towel as Roulan widen her eyes, grabbing Yanmei's hands.

"Yanmei."

"What? I just wanted to help you."

Yanmei looks down at her hands. She raises them towards Roulan's stomach as the taller girl in front flinches at the cold touch.

She scratches her nails on the bumps, her head leaning towards Roulan's ear as she whispers.

"Get ready; my father's waiting."

Her lips are dangerously closer to Roulan's ear, almost tickling the taller girl, but she quickly leans out and smiles widely at her.

They both held eye contact before Yanmei went down, and Roulan sighs in relief.

"That woman, does she think those lustful eyes of hers can get me?"

Roulan shakes her head as she chuckles.

"That won't ever happen."

-

For Roulan, the ride towards the country where her life would change is torture.

Yanmei, wanting to have a rest, decided that it's best to cuddle up Roulan in front of her father.

Yeah, right, in front of her father!

And Roulan couldn't help but be embarrassed in the process, not wanting to look like a sweet and loving wife in front of Shihong, as she never really liked the idea.

Of course, Yanmei's action caused the older man to raise an eyebrow, but he never questioned it as Yanmei was a clingy person.

That is, until her mother died.

Roulan even tried to push Yanmei away, telling her that there is a room where a comfortable bed is located.

And even the girl who was on top of her told her that.

Bur Yanmei doesn't like the comfort of that bed, but she is starting to love the warmth Roulan's body is giving her.

And the whole ride towards Abrington was nothing but back and neck pain for her, as well as uncomfortable stares from the five bodyguards that Shihong brought with him.

And now that they've already landed and are in their hotel, Roulan couldn't wait any longer to get her much-needed rest from all the questionable and embarrassing moments that happened on the plane.

Or so she thought.

A knock interrupted the perfect imagination of what Roulan wanted to do in bed, making her groan in annoyance.

She stomped her feet and went towards the door, opening it only for the girl that she pretty much didn't want to see at the moment.

"What are you doing here?"

Roulan asks, her hand holding the door tightly as she leans at the door frame. Yanmei raises an eyebrow at her question, her hands going towards the door to fully open it, but Roulan holds it tightly.

"Step aside; I want to go and sleep beside you."

Yanmei said, her hands still continuing to push the door open, but Roulan's stopping it from happening.

"Yanmei, you've already slept on top of me on the airplane."

"So?"

Yanmei raises an eyebrow at the statement that the taller girl told her.

Roulan shakes her head and sighs, her hand holding onto the door tightly as if not wanting to have it pushed away by the smaller girl.

"What I wanted to tell you is, can you let me rest for awhile?"

Yanmei stops pushing the door and looks straight into Roulan's eyes.

She smiles and nods, crossing her arms over her chest.

"Fine, you can go and take a rest."

She said this, causing Roulan to sigh in relief and nod her head.

Roulan removes her body from the door frame and is about to close the door when she gets pushed to the side, her back colliding with the wall, causing her to groan at the sudden impact.

"Oh gosh, are you okay?"

The door closing and locking was heard in the room as Roulan looked up and saw Yanmei walking towards her, squatting in the process.

The taller girl scoffs, her hand swatting Yanmei's as she stands up from the floor.

"Go away; you could have pushed it a little harder."

Roulan said, her eyes glaring at the older woman as she makes her way towards the bed, her hand punching her back softly.

"Hey, I'm sorry."

Yanmei followed her behind, her eyes looking at the girl's back, checking if she had any bruises.

"Come, I'll massage your back."

Roulan puts her knees on the bed and was about to drop her body on the soft bed, but she stops at what Yanmei said.

"No thanks; you only know how to hurt me physically."

Yanmei scoffs and goes towards her, softly hitting the girl on her arm before pulling her towards the bed.

"Come on, I'll be gentle this time."

"Nope, don't ever touch me."

Roulan positioned herself flat on the bed, sighing in relief as her tense and aching body came into contact with the soft mattress of the hotel.

"Did you even check the bed?"

"Why would I? Your father rented a five-star one."

"Still, the beds could still have bugs."

Roulan opens her eyes, and she quickly stands up from the bed, looking around the small areas of the bed where the bugs could hide.

"But yeah, my father did rent a five-star one, so no need to worry."

Yanmei chuckles at the sudden action Roulan took as soon as she gave her the idea of bed bugs. The taller girl, having had enough of Yanmei's constant bullying, groans in annoyance.

"Please, can you let me take a rest?"

Roulan lays on the bed, her face kissing the pillow as she closes her eyes in the process.

She felt hands on her back as she didn't have any energy to fight back the girl that was starting to massage her.

"Fine, but you'll let me sleep beside you."

Roulan couldn't answer her, as she felt like she was on cloud nine with how gently and well Yanmei massaged her back.
