"It's over there at the dressing table. I'll carry you there." An Honghan habitually got up and pulled the girl into his arms.
Xi Xizhi did not reject An Honghan's embrace; perhaps the two of them were used to this way of getting along.
As Xi Xizhi moved, her silver hair gradually spread out on the ground, shining brightly and extremely beautiful.
Xi Xizhi's hair is very smooth and shiny, and from a distance it looks like a silver waterfall.
Xi Xizhi then realized that her hair had grown so long that it dragged on the ground.
She reached out and swept a strand of silver hair, thinking to herself, "I must get a pair of scissors and cut it off later."
If it keeps dragging on the floor like this, it might as well be used as a broom.
Seeing through someone's thoughts, An Honghan said disapprovingly, "Everything you have now belongs to me. Without my permission, you can forget about taking this silver hair."
Xi Xizhi was furious. "The hair is mine."
“But you are mine now,” An Hong replied calmly, leaving Xi Xizhi no room for negotiation.
"Who said I belong to you? I am still me, and I belong to myself." Xi Xizhi gritted her teeth, wishing she could rush up and fight An Honghan.
An Honghan seemed oblivious to her furious expression, and simply said, "Is that so? Don't forget you signed a contract of servitude, or do you want me to use some means to see who you really belong to? Until you admit it."
With a hint of mockery in his eyes, An Honghan looked at Xi Xizhi with an air of seriousness, gradually stopping in his tracks, as if he wanted to turn back.
Xi Xizhi thought of An Honghan's other side of his personality and shook her head in fright. She shamelessly agreed with him, saying, "I'm yours, I'm yours, okay?"
Xi Xizhi's eyes welled up with tears of grievance. Why was she being controlled by a certain cunning emperor?
Such long hair is beautiful, but it's also very cumbersome.
"It's best that you understand this fact." At this moment, An Honghan had already carried Xi Xizhi to the mirror.
Everything in this inn is old, including the mirror, which is made of brass and can only vaguely reflect the appearance of the innkeeper.
Xi Xizhi blinked, and the girl in the mirror blinked back.
Xi Xizhi carefully examined her appearance and nodded in satisfaction. She was much prettier than when she was seven or eight years old with her chubby face.
Most fairies are extremely alluring, especially foxes, who can bewitch people with their looks alone. But Xi Xizhi is an exception among fairies; her face has nothing to do with the word "alluring."
Just as Xi Xizhi was about to take a closer look, there was a knock on the door.
"Master, do you need me to help you get up?" Lynn knocked lightly on the door and called out to the inside.
He had followed His Majesty for many years and naturally knew that His Majesty was not a person who slept in. However, now that the sun was high in the sky and even Lord Situ and Lord Liu were up, it was extremely unusual for his master to have overslept.
An Honghan frowned impatiently. "No need, you can wait outside."
Xi Xizhi curled her lips in boredom, thinking to herself, "Luckily, it was a stormy night last night, otherwise, with the soundproofing of this inn, people would have discovered what happened last night long ago."
Thinking of the sudden downpour last night, and the scales covering An Honghan's body in the bathtub, Xi Xizhi's expression changed as she looked at An Honghan, "Your body... and what happened last night, what do you think?"
Xi Xizhi spoke haltingly and hesitantly.
An Honghan's expression remained unchanged as he looked down at the person in his arms. "You guessed it, didn't you? The blood of the An family's ancestor flows in my veins, so it is only natural that I can inherit his Dragon Pearl."
This is why every emperor has been searching for that secret.
However, An Honghan did not tell her that in the beginning, he was not particularly interested in that secret.
It was only after Xi Xizhi appeared that An Honghan's desire to search for her was aroused.
He was not content with just one lifetime; he wanted lifetimes upon lifetimes.
"Then, will you become someone else after swallowing the Dragon Ball...?" Xi Xizhi stared at An Honghan's chest, unsure how to continue.
"No longer human?" An Honghan continued, resting his chin on Xi Xizhi's forehead, and said softly, "After swallowing the Dragon Pearl, my body has indeed undergone some changes, and even I dare not guarantee what will happen in the future."
Xi Xizhi and he both witnessed what happened last night.
As for whether he will undergo a complete transformation and rise to prominence, that remains to be seen.
"It's okay. No matter what you become in the future, I'll always be by your side, right?"
In short, you won't be lonely.
Xi Xizhi didn't say the last sentence aloud; she chose to swallow it.
An Honghan gently pressed Xi Xizhi's forehead against his own and said nothing more.
The outside gradually became noisy, and Situ Feiyu and Liu Fuqing started arguing again as soon as they met.
Without His Majesty present, the two of them became even more unrestrained, arguing back and forth endlessly.
Xi Xizhi tugged at An Honghan's clothes and got out of his arms. As soon as she landed, she activated her spiritual energy and transformed back into a mink.
To avoid arousing suspicion, it would be more appropriate for Xi Xizhi to present herself as Diao'er discreetly.
Besides, if a young girl were to walk out of An Honghan's room for no apparent reason, wouldn't that arouse a lot of suspicion?
Besides, she has no clothes, and no hair ties, so Xi Xizhi definitely doesn't want to face others in human form.
An Honghan dressed himself piece by piece, and after he finished getting ready, he picked up the little ferret and opened the door.
In an instant, the arguing between Situ Feiyu and Liu Fuqing ceased.
