24 Pillar of the Country 3 (1/2)

Xi Sheng closes her eyes and concentrates on falling asleep.

Knock! Knock! Knock!

”Junior Sister Sheng! Wake up! You're going to be late if you continue sleeping!”

Xi Sheng tightened her grip on her blanket.

I should sleep. Its very important for growing.

”Junior Sister Sheng! It's already three in the morning! The master is already waiting for you!”

Three! In! The! Morning!

Normal humans are still sleeping, are you all monsters?!

Since she cannot go back, she might as well do her daily tasks quickly.

She ignored the annoying shouts and resume in cleaning her room.

Xi Sheng folds her blanket and the sheet neatly and symmetrically. She then pushed the soft and thick mattress at the corner of the room with her hand and places the blanket and sheet.

Her room has a style of minimalism. Perfectly her taste.

”Junior Sister Sheng! If you don't come out, I will pinch Little Eight---.”

The man's sentence didn't even finish when the screeching sound of the sliding wooden door cut him off.

Before him is the outstanding face of his junior sister. It's in the middle of femininity and masculinity.

Small face with smooth and pearly skin, heroic brows, thick eyelashes, small pointed nose, red plump lips and the most captivating part that could restrain and imprison every soul--her almond-shaped eyes.

The man gulped several times. His junior sister's eyes are just too mysterious. Its just like the strongest color of the sun when it's about to vanish.

”Awooo.... Awooo...”

The pitiful sound coming from his bosom reminded him that if reacted later, he will----Nevermind, it's already here... The stare of his junior sister, her stare looks normal but he felt goosebumps ran in his spine.

Xi Sheng glance at the man in front of her, Senior Brother Xi Lan. If she's not mistaken, that is his name.

Her eyes travel into the black-furred animal that was being held in Xi Lan's bosom. It's the black-eyed wolf pup.

She extended her hand and said:”Give.”

Xi Lan was reminded again, and he slowly gives Little Eight to Xi Sheng's care.

She caressed it gently and kissed its forehead. The black-furred animal rest his body into her's.

Xi Sheng didn't wait for Xi Lan when she started to walk away. Her eyes moving back and forth to the somewhat-dark corridor. Although there are torches hung everywhere, it still couldn't lighten the whole place.

Xi Sheng felt a cold air in her neck.

Her embrace tightened and the small pup buried its body even more.

I'm not scared, definitely.

Xi Lan walked quickly and caught up to her.

Xi Lan foolishly asked:”Junior Sister Sheng, you wouldn't hate me for threatening you with Little Eight right?”

Xi Sheng stopped her tracks. She look back at him, and a gush of the wind made her soft and silky hair dance in the air.

”If you dare hurt him, I'll return a hundred-fold to you.”

Xi Sheng does not hold any interest to his reaction. She turns her back and walked more quickly.

Xi Lan, on the other hand, was left speechless.

Too... Too cool and too domineering!

Junior Sister Sheng, are you sure that you're not a man?!

Xi Lan sped up and shouted:”Junior sister! Wait for me!”
