Chapter 100 - 100. Xue Ning's Happy Feeling
Chapter 100 – 100. Xue Ning’s Happy Feeling
"Huh, you perverted man," she said, laying back down and relaxing her body.
The drowsiness that hit her made her fall asleep a few minutes later.
***
Gu Yi who suddenly entered the inn through the main door made Xue Ning and Huang Bao look at him in confusion. But none of them made a sound.
Wan Lie who also suddenly appeared from behind the inn stopped his steps when he saw the man, Hao who was in his arms closed his eyes lazily.
"Weren't you two in the room?" Xue Ning's voice suddenly made all eyes turn to her, except for Gu Yi who continued walking and sat on the sofa right beside Huang Bao.
"Why…."
"Noisy," said Gu Yi in a cold voice. His closed eyelids with his body leaning on the sofa made him look like he was asleep.
Xue Ning suddenly felt that the man's attitude was very different, for some reason she got little goosebumps hearing the man's cold voice. Receiving such an answer, her guts to ask further shrunk.
While on the other hand, Wan Lie immediately walked towards the room where his mother was and released the room key without opening the door. Just in case, in case his mother needed something, she could immediately meet them.
Judging from the look on Gu Yi's face, Wan Lie was very sure that his father was kicked out by Fu Xie Lan, his mother.
'Seems like you have to try even harder, Dad' he thought to himself with a sigh.

After resting for a few minutes, Huang Bao immediately went to the room where the wizard man was, He wants to check on his condition.
As for Wan Lie, maybe he was going around all the rooms in the inn?
And Xue Ning, the girl was still where she was, resting her body and not moving an inch. There was only Gu Yi in the same room as her. That man hasn't moved a bit since earlier, Xue Ning who stole glances at him occasionally felt a little doubtful, is that man sleeping, or is he dead? Her eyes then moved to scan the box containing the clothes she had brought earlier.
She immediately rose from her position and grabbed the box and opened it. Even though she had seen the dress, she didn't get tired of looking at it. Her hands moved gently to caress the neatly folded dress. If she is being honest, it was the best dress she'd owned during her nomadic life with the people of Parqus Village. Her wide smile made anyone who saw it could tell that the girl was very happy.
"It's beautiful," she murmured.
"Are you so happy?" a voice from the side made her turn her head and find Wan Lie who was currently walking towards her.
Xue Ning did not answer the young man, her hand immediately closed the box again and placed it on the table in front of her.
"About earlier, I'm sorry," the girl squeaked.
Hearing Xue Ning, one of Wan Lie's eyebrows raised. He then sat down on the same sofa as Gu Yi.
"Forget it," replied the young man later.
"Is that Xie Lan's dress earlier?" he added looking at the box previously held by the girl.
Xue Ning just nodded.
"Where have you been?" the girl then asked.
"Just taking a walk," Wan Lie sighed and leaned back against the sofa as well.
"Noisy," the cold voice that came from Gu Yi's lips caught the attention of the two people in the room. A second later, he immediately got up and walked out towards the main door.
"Where are you going?" asked Wan Li.
Gu Yi didn't pay any attention to it and continued walking out until it disappeared from the young man's sight.
Wan Lie let out a breath.
"May I ask something?" Xue Ning said suddenly making Wan Lie turn his head towards her.
"Are you brothers?"
"Who?" Wan Lie asked back.
"You and that person," Xue Ning replied looking outside following Gu Yi's footsteps.
"Hmm, let's just say so," answered Wan Lie casually. There was no way he could say that the man was his father.
"No wonder, so similar."
"I can't imagine how beautiful and handsome your parents were," she added as if to say to herself. Somehow Xue Ning suddenly remembered her parents. Her body leaned back on the sofa as well as her head staring at the ceiling of the inn, her mind wandering far away.
Wan Lie who heard the girl's words did not respond. The atmosphere in the room was quiet again, there was no sound or talk from the two of them. Only the occasional sigh could be heard, lost in their thoughts.

It was already dark because the sun had returned to its bed. The sound of nocturnal animals filled the silence. The sky is very clear, the moon is only seen half hanging beautifully among the scattered stars, the black night sky seems to be the perfect canvas for celestial objects that look very stunning to the eyes of those who look at them.
The air temperature in Kanca City at night is not that cold when compared to other areas, maybe because the city is crowded with all races that mix to hunt for the goods that they need. Like during the day, the traders still peddle their wares at night as if this activity has become the main and obligatory thing in their lives.
The city visitors who previously filled the city streets are now starting to decrease as the night darkens. May have rested at each of the inns they rented or had returned to their original territory.
A typical wake-up groan that comes from a girl can be heard filling the silence in a room with dim candle lighting. A man standing behind the bedroom window immediately turned and smiled at a girl who didn't seem to have noticed his presence.
"Good evening, Queen."
Fu Xie Lan who had just woken up from her sleep was startled when a familiar-sounding male voice tapped her senses. Rubbing her eyes and trying to process what happened.
Her head immediately turned to the source of the voice and found the perverted man smiling at her.
"Don't protest and change your clothes immediately."
Gu Yi spoke again when he saw that the girl seemed to want to yell at him again.
Fu Xia Lan was silent, her eyes following where Gu Yi was looking. A large box lying on the table made her brows furrow.
"Immediately change your clothes to the ones over there," Gu Yi said again when he saw the wrinkles on Fu Xie Lan's forehead.
Fu Xie Lan did not respond and immediately approached the table, grabbed the box, and opened it. It turned out to be true, inside there were several pieces of clothing. Looking at the suit that was there, her brows furrowed again.
"Don't ask anything, and change your clothes. Aren't you uncomfortable with the smell of blood on your body?" Gu Yi said then with his arms crossed over his chest.
