Chapter 105: Returning to Zhu Shen Xing

Lin Zhi Jing let out a light snort: "Even if you two are a match, you still have to consider the ability level. You're so far below me; how can you be so confident?"

"How could I be embarrassed!"

"Enough!" Ye Xi'an now regretted agreeing to marry Lin Zhi Jing; it was just too chaotic. She only wanted to go home, take a nice hot shower, and lie on a comfortable mattress to sleep.

"Stop arguing, let's go quickly." Ye Xi'an finished speaking and immediately stepped out.

Lin Zhi Jing and Bao Jing saw that Ye Xi'an was truly angry, so they stopped teasing and silently followed.

"Honey, are we still staying at a hotel?" Yi Yang obediently trailed behind Ye Xi'an, matching her steps like a child.

"Hmm, it's getting dark; we need to hurry."

The group hurriedly booked a room that could accommodate five people; this time they didn't fuss over the room type—if there's a room, they'll take it.

"Honey, Doctor Lin hasn't joined us yet; letting him stay with us like this might hurt his reputation."

Ji Jiangci offered a friendly reminder: if Ye Xi'an suddenly changed her mind and rejected Lin Zhi Jing, then Lin Zhi Jing would likely have no females wanting him.

"Is that so?" Ye Xi'an didn't quite get it; she hadn't thought that far. Putting herself in someone else's shoes, isn't it just a blond guy on Earth taking a little girl to a hotel!

Although she wouldn't do anything to Lin Zhi Jing, his reputation would still suffer a bit: "Then I'll book another room."

Lin Zhi Jing pressed her hand, smiling with a forced grin: "No need, I'm about to marry you; it's only natural for us to live together."

"But we haven't married yet."

"Just one house."

Ye Xi'an couldn't resist him, so she went along and took the original five‑person room.

The interior was simply decorated; the walls glowed with a warm milky yellow, the wooden floor emitted a faint fresh scent, and five beds were neatly arranged in the room—just looking at it made Ye Xi'an feel sleepy.

But she was still sticky and slimy, smelling of snot.

She closed her eyes and walked toward the bathroom.

"Honey, where are you going?"

"Taking a shower." Ye Xi'an's voice was airy, as if she might collapse any second.

Lin Zhi Jing looked anxiously at the frosted bathroom door; glancing at the clock, it was 11:50, almost midnight.

"It's almost midnight; will Ye Xi'an faint inside?"

"Don't worry, I'll go in and bathe you; even if you faint, it's fine."

Ji Jiangci wasn't flustered at all; he methodically tidied the room, stacking the fresh clothes Ye Xi'an had taken from the space onto the cabinet, placing a pair of slippers by the bathroom door so she could slip them on as soon as she emerged.

He leisurely ripped the garments and tossed them into the trash; the clothes were pocked with corrosion from Mutant Vines' slime, and unlike before, they simply discarded the ruined clothes instead of patching them.

He stood naked, his slender clean body exposed to the air, wrapped a towel from the nearby rack around himself, then grabbed another draped over his arm and tapped lightly at the bathroom door with his index‑finger knuckle: "Honey, I'm coming in?"

Ye Xi'an was soaking in the bathtub, enjoying herself, when she heard Ji Jiangci say, "Don't come in!"

"Why?"

"What are you doing coming in? I'm in the middle of washing."

Ji Jiangci rested his head against the door: "I know, I'm just here to give you a bath."

"And me!"

Ye Xi'an gritted her teeth; this Yi Yang always wants to join every fun thing: "Ji Jiangci, I can wash myself."

"But I'll wash you and it'll feel better." Ji Jiangci was confident in his skill; he had studied the most professional Chinese therapeutic massage and massage, and after Ye Xi'an's last faint, he knew he could make her unable to stop.

Ye Xi'an listened to Ji Jiangci's words and felt something was odd—why would his washing make someone feel more comfortable?

Could it be some beast‑man's secret technique?

"Ugh, I'm a bit curious, but letting someone wash me is too embarrassing; I'm not a child anymore."

Ji Jiangci seemed to hear Ye Xi'an's thoughts: "Honey, you don't need to be shy; on Zhu Shen Xing, female bathing is always attended by males."

"Is that right?" The balance in Ye Xi'an's heart leaned to one side; thinking of Qiu Yi's attitude toward females, and then of herself, she admitted she had indeed treated females rather pitifully.

Perhaps by shifting her Earthling mindset, she could live better here!

Ye Xi'an decided; she wanted to see how happy a Zhu Shen Xing female could be!

She resolutely rose from the bathtub, clad in a layer of wet clothing; under the ceiling light, she shimmered like a pearl emerging from water.

"Coming, wait a moment." Ye Xi'an grabbed a towel to shield herself, hesitant to look at Ji Jiangci: "Come in."
