The Journey to the East The Journey to the Future The Journey to the End

Chapter 42

Okay, this is getting draggy.

Zilong's POV

I followed my nose which was leading me towards the smell of the Tau Huay, which led me to the kitchen. There I saw the two people I wanted to see, Baxia and Chang'e.

I rushed up to them, and hugged Baxia dearly, leaving Chang'e to sit there, alone, wondering why her brother went to hug some random guy instead of his sister when he comes back from don't know where. 

I think I must've given Baxia a heart attack. He raised the spoon in his hand abruptly, almost hitting me smack dab on my forehead, but he didn't so thank goodness. 

Oh yes, and you want to know what I saw in the room.

A half-naked Ling and a fully-dressed Wanwan sitting on his lap. 

I know it may not seem much for you guys, but for squealers like me, it is a huge deal. 

I know Yu Zhong is probably not going to let us go so easily, so I need to recuperate for a few days before we step onto the battlefield again. I know he will be stronger, and no one can defeat him, but it's our duty to protect Cadia Riverlands, with our lives, or without. 

One more thing, I shall not go into Wanwan and Ling's room. From what I can see, this hut isn't all that little. There are three bedrooms, one kitchen, a living room, and a bathroom. Since when did a hut have a living room? Not important, but I'll say it's more of a mini bungalow.

I'm very curious to know what Wanwan and Ling are doing back there. So... I've come up with a brilliant plan to watch them in action.

Step 1: Dress up as a waitress.

Step 2: Bring their Tau Huay to them

Step 3: Take a quick glance.

So I did that, just for the sake of my hungry eyes. I want something spicy. Now I am going to execute my plan, follow me.

I went to the wardrobe of Chang'e, for I'm affirmative she has a random costume I can borrow. I didn't exactly find what I wanted after rummaging through her stuff, but hey, I found a cute apron and dress. I slipped those on and went to the kitchen to get some of Baxia's signature Tau Huay. No one questioned me, he just gave me two bowls of it on a tray and Chang'e just gave me a quizzical look, but shook her head and returned to eating her Tau Huay. Okay, now it's time for me to see what's going on.

I held the tray gingerly and tip-toed to the room furtively, I didn't knock, for I didn't enter, yet. I first stuck my head in to get a quick glance. 

Clang cling kelang kelang.

The metal tray containing the bowls of Tau Huay slipped out of my hands and dropped onto the floor. I used my hands to cover my mouth in extreme shock, and so as to not squeal so loudly, at a pitch high enough to shatter anything made of glass. 

You know what they were doing?

Sleeping under one blanket, together, HALF-NAKED (Ling), FRENCH KISSING

Holy guacamole. I can't look at this by myself anymore, gotta get Baxia.

"Baxia! Baxia! Baxia! Look! Look! Look!" I yell-whispered and dragged him to the door of their room. Once I showed him the glorious sight inside, his face of boredom immediately lit up. We glanced at each other for a moment, before we started clapping softly, which gradually becam loud applause and cheering.

"GO LING! YOU GO BRO!" I whooped. 

They stopped what they were doing and looked at us in a very very very awkward manner. Very, I say. In case you didn't hear it right, it was very very very awkward. Got it?

That was when they started to shoot their weapons at us. A few sleeve darts narrowly missed my head, and a huge blue sword flew directly for my forehead. Thank god for that triangular headpiece that protected my brain from getting stabbed to death. 

Upon seeing and feeling this, Baxia and I raised our hands in surrender and ran off, giggling. 

I'm not going to be able to erase that image from my head. I mean, since when did they start doing those kind of things?

(A/N: The Wanling stuff on top was very difficult for me to write.)
