Chapter 167 Stars, Moon, and Sun (10)

A bubble rose from the mirror-like surface of the spring water...

Then, in the same spot, several more bubbles appeared.

It gushed out from the bottom of the water and burst open on the surface, making soft popping sounds.

Yi Yi squatted by the spring, cupping her cheeks, and said listlessly, "Come out, it must have been hard for you to hold your breath for so long."

With the sound of splashing water, someone broke the calm surface of the spring and stood up.

Ai, a wet, furry ball magnified several times, stood up from the spring.

Yi watched him silently walk ashore, almost forgetting how long he had been gone.

Looking at his still-dripping downy fur, Yi Yi couldn't help but tease, "Did you know? It's said that for every ten seconds you hold your breath, one brain cell dies!"

"Brain cells?" Even though Ai Yi had grown bigger, she was still as soft and cute as ever.

It just seems that the reaction is a bit slower.

"No, no, I was just too sleepy and said something without thinking." Yi Yi waved her hand, turning the matter over, "Anyway, holding your breath like that is bad for your health, so don't do it again."

Ai Yi tilted her head slightly, blinked at Yi Yi with a bewildered look, and said, "If it's because you're worried that I'll hurt myself by holding my breath, then you don't need to worry, sister!"

Ai lifted her thick, wet downy fur like she was taking off a sweater and said cheerfully, "After all, I do have gills!"

The downy fur, like a fur coat, was strangely separated from the skin and flesh, and was easily and cleanly lifted up.

Where the ribs are exposed, there are cracks along the rib marks that resemble the gills of a shark.

"Aaaaaah! That kind of structure is neither cute nor reasonable!"

Yi Yi suddenly sat up from the grass.

I woke up with a start from a slightly eerie dream.

Ai looked at the fire that had been lit nearby, its leaves half-dried, and her expression seemed to have been frightened.

He pounced on her.

Reaching out to brush aside the downy hair on his sides, I couldn't lift it up like a sweater, but I also confirmed the strange gill-like structures underneath.

He breathed a huge sigh of relief, patting his chest in shock, and said, "Thank goodness, it was just a dream!"

The muscles beneath the fur felt as stiff as rock.

Looking at Ai Yi's surprised face, Yi Yi carefully considered their current situation.

Silently standing up, I clenched my fist and slammed it into my palm before realizing: I had just been lying on his lap and groping his ribs!

To be honest, it's difficult to dress up when you're furry, and it doesn't seem like there's anything wrong with not wearing clothes.

But Ai always makes sure to put her clothes on carefully.

Such a bare-chested image is truly rare.

If he hadn't transformed yesterday and torn his clothes, and hadn't fallen asleep without realizing it, he probably wouldn't be sitting here so disheveled.

Although she knew that Ai Yi was probably mortified, she couldn't help but take another look.

Hmm, it really is a world that has been embellished by art and doesn't fully exist in physics. The pants are still on my body perfectly fine!

It's not some evil thought or anything, it's just pure curiosity!

Yi Yi crossed her arms and looked at Ai Yi, who was trying to strike up a conversation, with a righteous expression.

Extending a hand, he interrupted the spellcasting: "It's purely out of curiosity!"

Ai Yi's outstretched paw paused slightly, and her pink paw pads were directly exposed to Ai Yi's view.

It was practically delivered right to my doorstep.

Yi Yi placed her hand on it and squeezed it, her conscience belatedly returning to her body.

He placed his hands on Ai's largest palms and squeezed them, asking with concern, "Your Highness, how long have you been in the water? Aren't you cold?"

Upon hearing this, Ai paused, then withdrew her claws, turned her head away, and whispered, "It's alright, I'm actually much more awake now."

Although they were very close, Ai's voice seemed to be muffled as she spoke the second half of her sentence, as if she didn't intend to say it aloud.

Yi Yi could only step forward and ask, feigning ignorance, "Huh?"

Ai didn't say anything, stood up and shook off the grass and dust from her body.

He pulled Yi Yi up from the ground and said in a somewhat cold tone, "Let's go back."

Yi Yi nodded and followed behind Ai Yi, looking somewhat bewildered.

The road ahead remains rugged and bumpy.

However, Ai only offered a small helping hand in areas with really large undulations.

It seems they don't want any more physical contact.

The two returned to the castle in an awkward atmosphere.

Standing at the door of Yi Yi's room in the castle, they looked at each other in silence.

After a long silence, Yi Yi broke the silence first and said, "Then I'll go in first, you should go back and catch up on your sleep too."

Ai Yi said, her tone devoid of emotion, "Once the month is up, Yi Yi, you should leave the castle."

Yi Yi stumbled and almost fell, then turned around and saw the door had already been closed.

Without hesitation, Yi Yi turned around and opened the door.

Watching Ai's retreating figure as if fleeing.

Yi Yi couldn't help but break down and yell, "Hey, what are you doing!"

Why is there a progress bar showing a rewind?

I will never say you're paying extra again, nor will I mention the difficulty of your easy-to-complete strategy!

Don't you dare retreat back into your room!

But Yi Yi's cries were destined to be ignored.

It's even possible that Ai gave some kind of instruction.

Just as Yi Yi was about to chase after them, she was stopped by all sorts of household items.

They all pulled Yiyi back to her room, after telling her what had happened to her the night before.

Hopefully, Yi Yi can catch up on her sleep after a night of hardship.

Yi Yi tried to sit up several times, but they pressed her down each time.

No matter how Yi Yi explained that "she and Ai Yi have some conflicts right now, and they absolutely cannot stay overnight; they need to resolve them immediately."

The simple-minded servants still followed Ai's orders and refused to let her leave.

But I must say, one night I ended up sleeping on the grass without even realizing it.

Then we walked along that rugged and winding path.

In the end, after being pampered and given a comfortable bath, I was put on the bed and covered with that little blanket...

Drowsiness did indeed strike instantly.

As soon as Yi Yi's head hit the pillow, her eyelids started to droop.

But he still tried to get up, clinging to the idea that "the problem can't be left unresolved overnight," but was repeatedly pushed back down.

I wonder how many times Yi Yi will try, no matter how hard she tries.

He simply turned over in bed without even opening his eyes.

Finally, he drifted off into a deep sleep.

The servants breathed a long sigh of relief and took turns cleaning up Yi Yi's room.

After drawing the curtains and extinguishing the candles, I checked the amount of sleep-inducing aromatherapy and then left Yi Yi's room.

Yi Yi was left alone in a not-so-peaceful sleep.
