chapter 38

Ji Yan found him to be quite amusing, and was barely able to hold back her laughter while she said, “Senior Brother, I want to take a shower now, so let’s head out tomorrow…”

“Okay! Okay!” Shao Xin refused to meet Ji Yan’s gaze as he stared at the door. He nodded his head fervently and said, “I’ll ask someone to fetch you hot water…”

With that said, he rushed out of the room.

As soon as he left the room, he could hear the young girl burst out laughing inside the room.

Shao Xin’s body swayed back and forth, and he almost stumbled over thin air.

Ji Yan received the hot water and happily started taking a shower.

Yin Xuezhuo was not interested in watching a woman bath, so he flew and sat on top of the roof. He was still just ten mere steps away from where Ji Yan was bathing.

However, he found Ji Yan to be really annoying.

It was fine had she just taken a bath like a normal person, but she liked to sing when she bathed.

It was fine if she was able to sing, but the song she sang was weird and her singing was unpleasant to the ear. He couldn’t even understand the meaning behind the lyrics.

“Come on ~ We have a lot of time anyway ~”

“Come on ~ my daring, we have a lot of time to play around ~”

“Come on ~ we can wander the world since there are so many directions that we can head towards ~”

“Come on ~ we can make…”

Yin Xuezhuo, “…”

Yin Xuezhuo stood up and transformed himself into a cloud of black mist and flew around the roof a few times with annoyance. His patience was reaching its limit. He would stomp on the tiles of the roof with his feet deliberately to warn the person below.

It was a pity that Ji Yan was already so immersed in singing her song that she didn’t notice the movement from the roof at all.

She loved singing while bathing because it lightened the mood. Ji Yan even shook her legs rhythmically to the beat of the song in the water. She sang all the songs she knew, from nursery rhymes to the national anthem; she even sang the opening song You are the Wind While I Am the Sand.

“Come on, let’s——”

“BOOM——”

There was a loud crash that instantly startled Ji Yan. She subconsciously wrapped her arm around her chest and looked up, only to see a huge hole in the roof.

Ji Yan, “???” What was this husky doing again? Was he planning on demolishing her roof again?

T/N: She’s referring to Yin Xuezhuo as a husky.

“…Yin Xuezhuo?” Ji Yan tentatively called out his name.

“Shut up!”

He tried to suppress his anger but failed. He unleashed his full anger at her when he interrupted and shouted at her.

It seemed that he felt that his curt warning was not enough, so he started to threaten her, “If you start singing again, then I will immediately drag you back to the devil realm and kill you!”

Ji Yan, “…”

Why are you acting so irritated and upset this early in the morning?

It was obvious that she was a great singer! He didn’t know how to appreciate her beautiful singing skills at all!

Although it was nice to sing while bathing, she didn’t want to die yet

Yin Xuezhuo was cruel and unreasonable, he didn’t even understand basic human integrity and shame. Even though Ji Yan told him that she would stop singing, he still jumped down from the roof. Ji Yan screamed and covered her chest in response and screamed the word pervert at him. Yin Xuezhuo raised one of his fingers impatiently and tapped the side of her lips gently. Ji Yan opened her mouth, but she realized that only a few inaudible sounds would come out.

“Ah…ah…” She covered her neck with her hands in shock as she stared at him wide-eyed with grief. Yin Xuezhuo lowered his head and glanced at the white flower petals in the tub. The expression on his face seemed to be telling her that there was nothing to see since he had already seen it before. Ji Yan almost fainted on the spot due to anger.

He was not human. He was not a normal person. Ji Yan had to repeat those two sentences over and over in her heart to calm herself down.

Just consider yourself to be raising a cat. Ji Yan used to have a cat in her previous world. It would always watch her when she bathed. Yin Xuezhuo may look like a human, but it was fine as long as she thought of him as the cat she raised.

Ji Yan slowly crawled out of the tub and hurriedly put on her clothes. Then, she dived onto the bed and wrapped the blankets around her.
