'Is it some sort of fated encounter of two destined lovers? Whatever, it looks like I got a free ticket to watch a show.' Chen Zoe's thoughts as he walked together with Yuzhen and Chen Ling.
"It's my first assignment, I really thought it going to be boring without having anyone by my side, but my luck is so high. Right after leaving the sect, I met you two." The trip to Kiachi was actually an assignment for Chen Ling by her master.
She had never left the sect before, so travelling alone and getting along with strangers was a new experience for her. She continued. "Aren't you the top ranked person, who became my brother's disciple?"
"Brother???" Yuzhen asked, clearly unaware of Chen Ling's true identity.
"I forgot to tell you; Master Zoe is my cousin brother." Chen Ling said with pride.
"Did he have a cousin like this? Were you aware of that?" Yuzhen whispered to Ziya, expressing his doubts.
"She is master Zeon's daughter, Chen Ling. Can't you see the similarities between them? Both have same black hair and ocean blue eye pupils. Most direct descendants of Chen have that trait." Ziya explains without much thoughts.
"Are you also a Chen, then?" Yuzhen's doubt almost left Ziya speechless. He continued, " You also had long black hair, blue pupils, and a scar on face that's similar to..."
For a moment, Chen Zoe thought his disguise had been exposed, but luckily Chen Ling interrupted. "Are you two talking about me, behind my back?"
"Huh... No..." Yuzhen replied.
With Chen Ling present, Yuzhen didn't get many opportunities to speak privately with Ziya, and the days slowly passed. Two days without much rest, they finally reached their destination in the evening.
The whole street was already decorated, and it was filled with tourists. Due to the large number of people who had come to Kiachi, finding a place to stay proved to be a challenge because most of the inns were already full.
"This is the last one. Let's hope at least one room is available here," Chen Zoe said as they entered the inn, their last hope. Fortunately, there were rooms available, but only two.
"We can share a room, right sis!" Chen Ling said, and before receiving a response, she dragged Ziya with her.
Entering the room, Chen Ling tossed her belongings aside and collapsed onto the bed. Her face reflected the relief of finally being able to rest. Two days of continuous travel on foot and by carriage had nearly drained all her energy.
After a few minutes of rest, she got up from the bed. "Sister, how about we take a bath?" That request almost left Zoe in shock.
Even though he was in disguise, he couldn't fathom the idea of taking a bath with his sister. "I don't like to bathe in front of others," Ziya rejected the offer.
"What's so embarrassing about bathing together? We're both women, right? Come on, sis, it's going to be fun." Chen Ling said as she began to remove her own clothes. In her undergarments, she went to help Ziya undress.
Ziya attempted to protect her dignity by avoiding letting Ling catch her, and a cat-and-mouse game began in the room.
"Finally, I got you." Unfortunately, Ziya found herself trapped in a corner.
"Ling, please... I really don't like it..." Ziya pleaded with Chen Ling. However, with a mischievous smile on her face, Ling moved closer. Unpredictably, her foot twisted, and she fell directly into Ziya, her hands landing on Ziya's b****.
"It's so soft and big, wow..." Chen Ling commented it while lightly squeezing it.
"Excuse me..." Ziya spoke out in a disgusted manner. Hearing this, realization dawned on Chen Ling, and she looked up with embarrassment.
"Huh!!!" An awkward smile appeared on Chen Ling's face as she quickly removed her hands from Ziya's body. "Sorry... It wasn't intentional."
Feeling uncomfortable, Ziya pushed Chen Ling away and hurriedly left the room. Chen Ling, left alone, looked at her own b**** in a dissatisfied manner. "So big, how she is maintaining it?"
"How am I supposed to live with this pervert for the next two days?" Ziya muttered to herself as she came out of the room. However, she never expected to run into Yuzhen, who was in the room next door.
At that very moment, Yuzhen opened his door and stepped out. "Why are you standing here?" he asked, showing concern.
Ziya replied awkwardly, "She is taking a bath, so I came outside to get some fresh air."
Yuzhen offered, "If you're okay with it, you can use the bathroom here. I can wait outside until you're done with your bath."
"Thank you..." For the first time, Chen Zoe felt grateful to have Yuzhen.
Finally getting a moment of peace and solitude, Chen Zoe took off the ring from his finger and transformed back to his original form. Then he enjoyed a peaceful bath in the bathtub. After finishing, when he searched for the ring, it wasn't there.
He panicked for a second, and suddenly, he heard a cat's voice coming from inside the room. As he looked in the direction of the sound, he saw a cat playing with the ring.
"Kitty, don't...leave it there. It's not something to eat. Leave it there..." He tried to take the ring from the cat, but it ran away with it.
Due to the size difference, he couldn't put on the clothes. Covering himself with the towel, he attempted to catch the cat before Yuzhen arrived.
The room turned into a battlefield for Chen Zoe and the cat, and gradually, the once neat room became messy. Unexpectedly, Yuzhen returned to his room, and hesitated about whether to enter or not. However, upon hearing the commotion from inside, he decides to enter the room with a concerned expression and was shocked by the scene he encountered.
