"What will we do in the town, though?" Bng Huo tilted her head as she raised from the bed, following Xi Xue.

"We can do a lot of things. Maybe eat some food or go shopping." Xi Xue took a cape and wore it. It's not winter, but the guy put on layered clothes out of habit.

"Alright, sounds good." Bng Huo tidied up her clothes and paused. She strode to the mirror around her area only to see a young man's reflection on the mirror.

'....why do I still need to disguise as a manXi Xue already know I'm a girl after all.'

Bng Huo pondered for a few seconds before Xi Xue suddenly poked her shoulder from behind.

!

"What is it " Bng Huo turned around, and Xi Xue casually patted her head. "Are you thinking of removing your disguise?"

The guy smiled sweetly, not acting like his usual self.

Bng Huo paused. She blinked fast at Xi Xue. "How...do you know "

"Well, I don't know why you have to disguise yourself, but I'm sure you also want to show your real self once in a while." Xi Xue shrugged.

'Actually, I'm curious as to why this girl disguises herself as a guy, but it's not like I can ask her about it.'

Hearing what Xi Xue said, Bng Huo lowered her head and nodded. "I also don't know why my grandpa asked me like this, but...I did want to be a girl just for a day."

Bng Huo sighed as she fidgeted with her fingers.

'But can I not disguise myself today? What if grandpa knows and gets mad'

Xi Xue already knew what's in Bng Huo's mind without the girl telling him. The guy stretched his hand and stroked Bng Huo's head.

"I'm here with you. Just remove your disguise. I'll take responsibility for whatever you will get into because of this." Xi Xue grinned. The guy ruffled Bng Huo's hair in bliss.

'I also want to see her without the disguise. Though I already see her true gender, I think it will be nice if others see her with me.'

"Eh, you will?" Bng Huo's eyes brightened. "I don't know what trouble I might get, but" the girl paused.

'If I'm with you, I'm sure I'll be fine.'

"Okay then, I trust you, Xi Xue!" Bng Huo giggled as she removed her disguise ring. The girl's original appearance was instantly revealed.

She was still wearing a male outfit, and her hair was also tied into a small bun. But this time, everyone could see the girl's real face.

"Hm, this is good." Xi Xue whistled. The man then waved his hand. "Now go, change your clothes. I can't walk with you if you still wear your male clothes, " Xi Xue said teasingly.

Bng Huo's eyes lit up. The girl's cheek turned pink from excitement. "Yes, yes!"

She hurriedly ran and changed into a cute pink dress. The clothes were something she stored dearly but never got the chance to use it.

A few minutes passed by, and Bng Huo came out from her bed area. The girl's hair was loosened, and her clothes were so feminine that Xi Xue froze on the spot.

'...is this really Bng Huo?'

"You aren't an imposter?" Xi Xue squeezed Bng Huo's cheek in doubt. The guy put quite a lot of strength until the girl's cheek stretched like a mochi.

Her white, fair skin instantly turned red.

"Ow, ow, I'm real! This is me, ah!" Bng Huo slapped Xi Xue's hand away and pouted.

'How could he say that?! Meanie!!'

Xi Xue stared at Bng Huo in silence. The girl was rubbing her red cheek, and Xi Xue couldn't help but chuckle.

"Hahaha. Senior, you are so cute." Xi Xue stretched his hands and gently rubbed the girl's cheek. There's a gentle, sweet smile on his face. "I'm sorry I pinch your cheek too hard."

The guy leaned closer and blew air to the girl's cheek. He caressed Bng Huo's cheek, trying to lessen her pain while blowing it.

His hot breath hit the girl's cheek, and Bng Huo instantly had the urge to faint.

'Too close!! Ah, ah, Xi Xue, why are you so casual about touching a maiden?'

Bng Huo stepped back and looked away. Her action stopped Xi Xue from doing whatever he was doing.

"What's wrong "

"You can't touch a girl so casually like that." Bng Huo clutched her arm.

'Maybe because he's a sacred beast, he's used to touching? Just how many girls he touches like this.'

"I told you, humans can't touch each other so easily like that." The girl averted her eyes from the guy. "Only a couple or married couple can do that. Understand?"

Bng Huo peeked at Xi Xue's face, but then the guy lowered his head. One could see his imaginary wolf ears were tucked down.

"I'm sorry" Xi Xue mumbled while scratching his cheek.

'I don't touch random girlsonly you. It's not like beasts like me f*ck with anyone, ah.'

Seeing Xi Xue's sad expression, Bng Huo lost all the energy to scold him. The girl just clutched her arm and turned around. "Let's go. I'm hungry."

The girl walked into the door without waiting for Xi Xue. One could see her face was dark, and there's a trace of sadness in her eyes.

'Why am I so angry. I just think maybe Xi Xue is used to dealing with girls. That's why he is so touchy, and that...irritates me.'

The girl glanced back at Xi Xue and sighed. The guy was following closely behind with his head hung low.

.don't look so sad like that, ah!!
