Chapter 85: Learning about Emotions? 2
Only the crispy noise of the burning wood filled the woods as Yuan stood there, looking at the sleeping face of Zhang Fumin.
As he sat, a chair appeared behind him for his support, and he comfortably sat on the chair, his eyes fixed on the woman in front of him.
He then turned his gaze to the fire and a mutter escaped his lips "The warmth..."
He raised his hand and a flick of fire appeared on his palm as his gaze squinted.
"The warmth.. I can't feel the 'warmth' I felt from it... maybe because of this woman. Big Sister?"
Unconsciously, his eyes grew tender as he looked at the sleeping face of the woman, the orange shade of the fire casting a beautiful hue on her face.
Huh? But he suddenly raised his hand and placed it above his heart 'Just now... my heart fluttered? Looking at her...'
He again took a good look at her and she is not exceptionally beautiful or something. Within mortal standards, she can be considered above average.
Yet... he couldn't help but be drawn to her.
He blinked his eyes in confusion 'I just met her and I am feeling this strange feeling...'
Raising his head, he glanced at the shining stars in the sky 'What is happening to my heart and emotions.'
Soon, morning came and Zhang Fumin's eyelashes fluttered open.
"Haah..." With a yawn, the first thing she saw was Yuan's face and she was taken aback "A-Ahh..."
Yuan just gazed at her indifferently, and a small frown crept on Zhang Fumin's face, looking at his gaze 'His eyes... the gaze, seem a bit softer than yesterday.'
Neverthless, she pulled herself up to sit on the bed and stretched her arms "Well uh... good morning."
Yuan just gave a nod "Good morning.."
Zhang Fumin got down from the bed and spoke "This bed is really good... I slept instantly."
A sigh escaped her lips "I want to freshen up... uh, is there any lake here or something."
However, she shook her head "No, the Xia Empire must be close... we should go there first."
Muttering to herself, she turned her head to Yuan and spoke "Come on, let's continue our journey."
Yuan stood up from his chair and the bed along with the chair disappeared from there.
"Don't you want to eat something? You didn't eat anything yesterday either."
Zhang Fumin shook her head "The Xia Empire should be close from here. We can go there and get food."
They again continued their journey and soon reached the outskirts of the Xia Empire.
Looking at the great city and buildings from afar, Zhang Fumin nodded in satisfaction "En, let's go."
After a little more walking, Yuan and Zhang Fumin finally reached the city.
Zhang Fumin's eyes glanced around while her hand hid the torn part of the robe on her abdomen and she felt some stares towards her side.
'Huh? They are looking at...'
Zhang Fumin rolled her eyes and saw Yuan who was walking beside her 'Aiyaah, he is attracting a lot of attention.'
Zhang Fumin leaned toward him and whispered "Little brother, see everyone is looking at you."
Yuan gave a slight nod and replied "I am aware... they are all attracted to my appearance."
Zhang Fumin replied with a faint giggle "Yeah, yeah... my little brother is hansome."
"By the way, Yuan... you have money on your hands right?"
Yuan nodded his head "Yeah, i do..."
"Hehe, that's good."
Soon they reached an inn and Zhang Fumin smiled proudly looking at the grand inn "This the richest inn in the city."
Both of them entered the inn and the receptionist at the table flashed a warm smile "Welcome esteemed customers."
But the receptionist's face turned grim as she looked at the tattered robes of Zhang Fumin and saw her hand holding her abdomen.
"Is she hiding the torn robes with her hand?"
However, a quick blush appeared on her cheeks seeing Yuan and muttered "He is so good looking..."
She hurriedly got out of her section and walked to them as she bowed to Yuan "Sorry Esteemed customer, you had to see this."
Then she turned her eyes to Zhang Fumin and waved her hand "Shoo, beggars like you are not allowed to be here."
Wha- Zhang Fumin was dumbfounded "I-I... me, what? I am not a beggar. How dare you?"
Yuan was quite displeased to see her being called like that and spoke "She is my... Big Sister."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Fumin smiled and wrapped her arm around Yuan's shoulders "Yeah, we are siblings..."
The receptionist looked at both of them blankly 'I don't see any similarities...'
Clearing her throat, Zhang Fumin spoke "We were hunting in the mountains, and I got myself into a mess like this. I also lost my storage ring, so I don't have any spare clothes."
The receptionist quickly realized this and bowed her head "P-Pardon me, Esteemed customers."
Zhang Fumin waved her hand "I shall forgive you for your rudeness. Now prepare for a VIP exclusive room. We will be staying here for like three months."
The receptionist was dumbfounded "YIP room for three months would cost a lot, Miss...."
Yuan raised his hand and a bag of coins appeared on his palm.
Seeing this, the receptionist nodded her head "O-Okay, then come with me for registration."
...
*creek* As the door opened, Zhang Fumin quickly ran inside and Yuan walked in after her.
Zhang Fumin stopped and turned around "Oi, Oi... where are you going? You have your own room, so you can go and stay there."
Yuan didn't refute and left the room, leaving her alone.
"Hmm hmm..." Humming music, Zhang Fumin quickly entered the bath to freshen up and saw that the bathtub was already filled with water.
"Wahh, VIP rooms are good."
She glanced at the white towel that was hanging on the side and quickly began to remove her clothes.
Wrapping the white towel around her body, she walked to the bathtub to hop in.
But at this time, she remembered something "Wait... I don't have spare robes to wear after taking a bath."
"What to do?"
She quickly came out of the bath nad yelled "Yuan!!!" knowing that he was in the nearby room.
Hm? Yuan who was in his room raised an eyebrow and walked out of his room, reaching the doorstep of her room.
*creek* The door opened slightly and Yuan saw Zhang Fumin, draped only in a white towel, her face dyed crimson and he could see her cleavage.
His eyes inadvertently glanced down and saw her supple thighs, which are held together, and her smooth legs.
H-Huh? What is this... feeling?
Yuan's heartbeat rose to see Zhang Fumin who was standing before him shyly, her entire body captivating his eyes.
'Why does she look different... and my heartbeat is increasing?'
Feeling his gaze, Zhang Fumin closed the door a little, showing only her eyes and spoke "I-I don't have any spare robes, Yuan... can you go and buy me a robe?"
Yuan snapped out of his reverie and asked "What color do you want..."
Zhang Fumin spoke "I am not picky... but a light blue would suffice."
As she uttered, a set of blue colored robes appeared in Yuan's palm and Zhang Fumin was bewildered "E-Eh? You have everything in your storage ring or something?"
She didn't question him any further and quickly reached out to grab the robe from his hand "Thank you."
*baam* Yuan blinked his eyes and a faint sigh escaped his lips as he leaned back on the door.
His back slowly slid down and he sat on the floor 'That feeling... is this what humans call as love? Me...'
'This woman is such a wonder.
Meanwhile, Zhang Fumin was on the other side, her cheeks flushing deep red as her gaze trembled in embarrassment. "Uhhh, he was definitely looking at me in that way."
"He said he doesn't have any emotions... but he... he... uhhhhhh bastard."
After taking a bath and wearing clothes, Zhang Fumin came out her room and Yuan who was waiting for her outside, raised his head.
Letting out a soft sigh, Zhang Fumin spoke "Come, let's go down and have some food."
As they thought of going down, two waitresses came there and spoke "Esteemed customers, there is an exclusive place for you to eat or you can eat in your rooms."
"Where would you like?"
Hearing this, Zhang Fumin rolled her eyes "Bring both of our food to my room"
After ordering the food, the waitresses left and Zhang Fumin spoke "To eat food, you can come and stay in my room for a bit."
Yuan just nodded his head and as they were waiting in Zhang Fumin's room, the food quickly arrived.
Zhang Fumin who was already hungry, hurriedly began to dig in and after her, Yuan also began to eat.
Tasting the human food for the first time, Yuan was impressed and glanced at teh woman who was sitting opposite him at the table.
'Did I felt like that... because I saw this woman half naked or... for every other woman when they are naked?'
