Chapter 562 - You’re My Guest (1/2)

While a certain couple tried to reestablish the mood, Zhong Jing Yi finally opened his eyes. The first thing he saw was an unfamiliar pair of legs clad in a violet robe. He blinked. Just what was going on here?

The last thing he remembered was that a man had appeared that claimed to be Tian but he hadn't felt even an ounce of familiarity from him.
