"What did you touch?" Mu Jin asked, looking at her.

The cat blinked, "Abs..."

What else could it be?

Mu Jin reached out to embrace her, then suddenly leaped off the roof and returned to the room.

As soon as the door closed, Mu Jin took off her blue robe and dragged the wary cat onto the bed. "You're still a bit inexperienced. You haven't figured out my thoughts yet. Let me teach you how to do it."

"This...is that alright, Ah Jin? I'm not very bright..." The cat crawled out.

However, Mu Jin pulled her back again, saying, "It doesn't matter if you're slow-witted. I'll teach you a few more times. Anyway, I'm used to teaching you."

But she doesn't really want to study anymore! The cat really wants to cry.

-------------------------------------

The next day.

The cat lay listlessly on the table, and it had been like this since morning.

Fortunately, Lan Yan's mind was entirely on Mu Xi, and she didn't notice her.

When Mu Xi got up, he looked unusually listless.

Since coming into this world, she has truly never touched a drop of alcohol. But last night she drank so much, and the hangover is showing; her head is buzzing and throbbing.

Mu Jin had someone make her a hangover soup.

She had just eaten something when the emperor's chief eunuch suddenly came to deliver an imperial decree, ordering her to enter the palace immediately.

Cat then looked up and said curiously, "Why do we have to go to the palace again? The emperor is such a hassle. If he wants to see you, can't he just come out himself?"

Her tone was very dissatisfied.

After receiving the imperial decree, Mu Xi made some preparations and then went to the palace again.

Mu Jin looked at the cat and said, "You stay here and rest at the inn. I'm going to take a look at the palace."

"Sigh, cats don't actually need to rest!" she said. Although her whole body felt like it was falling apart, she couldn't admit that she was that weak!

However, Mu Jin casually said, "No need to show off."

The cat immediately wilted.

Mu Jin went to the palace alone, without taking Lan Yan with her.

Compared to last night, Lan Yan didn't seem to be in such a hurry, and he didn't rush to have Mu Jin take him.

Cat couldn't help but look at Blue Flame, "Don't you want to know what the Emperor wanted to do with Xiao Xi today?"

Lan Yan scoffed, "Sima Zhao's intentions are obvious to everyone, so why guess? His repeated visits to Xiao Xi are nothing more than for matters concerning his harem."

"Your brain did work out for once," the cat said.

Lan Yan retorted, "Can you trust the emperor's words? Since ancient times, which emperor's harem hasn't been filled with three palaces and six courtyards, with a multitude of wives and concubines? This world is no different!"

“I don’t believe Xiao Xi would accept a man like that… Mu Jin is right. If the emperor insists on doing this, he will be forcing Xiao Xi away.”

But the cat said, "That's different. What if Xiao Xi can accept it?"

"Impossible!" Lan Yan said decisively. "If that were the case, I would kill that emperor! He is insulting Xiao Xi."

His tone carried a hint of ruthlessness.

The cat continued to lie there, too lazy to say anything more to him.

But after a while, Lan Yan suddenly called out, "Second Sister-in-law."

The cat raised its eyelids slightly. "What?"

Lan Yan walked up to the cat and looked at her with a serious expression.

Lan Yan is a very reckless person. When he rides his motorcycle, he rushes around like he's out of his mind. But in reality, he has a refined and scholarly appearance.

Judging from his tone, Lan Yan's family is a scholarly family, and he is considered to be quite rebellious.

Seeing his reaction, the cat said, "If you want to kill, then kill. That's your business. Don't expect me to help you. I'm a good person and I don't kill people randomly."

Lan Yan suddenly... knelt down before the cat!

The cat lowered its eyes and said speechlessly, "Even if you kneel down, I won't help you. The emperor is the Son of Heaven, not just anyone."

The emperor on earth corresponds to the Ziwei Palace in the sky. If she were to kill the emperor, the Ziwei Emperor would know immediately, which would alarm Ah Jin's master!

How could that be? The cat would absolutely never agree to that.

However, Lan Yan said, "I'm not asking you to kill the emperor, but rather, I want to become your disciple. Please agree!"

"Huh?" Cat was taken aback. She pointed at herself. "You want to become my disciple?"

"Why?"

She was incredibly curious. She had never thought about taking on apprentices before, nor would she ever teach one.

Lan Yan looked at the cat: "Because I've figured something out. Only when I'm strong enough can I win over the woman I love. You're right, my rival is the emperor. Even you can't touch him, so I... am even less likely to."

“I came here from China, passed through the sea eye, the super magnetic field, and my world in the painting. I have seen the boundless nature of this world. I don’t want to be an ordinary person anymore.”

"Although Xiao Xi's admiration for Mu Jin makes me very uncomfortable, I have to admit that Mu Jin is indeed a strong person!"

"I don't want to be able to wait and watch others do things again when something happens."

"I waited for ten years, and all that happened was the change of the world, and a rival in love appeared. Now, there's nothing I can do. I just want to be able to stand by Xiaoxi's side one day and help her weather all the storms."

"I know you can help me, so please, take me as your apprentice!"

The cat frowned and actually thought about it seriously.

This Lan Yan is indeed a promising talent, possessing the qualities of an immortal. She had seen it long ago, which is why she told him to stay in the mountains and forests a little longer when he first arrived in this world. But he was impatient and refused.
