Chapter 123 Two Cats, One Courtyard – Part 3

Chapter 123 – Two Cats, One Courtyard – Part 3

Both girls had a small talk after that. Hua Shi prepared a room for Dong Bai in Tong's residence and sent a messenger to Sima Manor that Dong Bai would stay in Tong's residence from now on.

Tong came back home before the sunset.

Then he met the little girl.

"Welcome home, darling."

Dong Bai greeted Tong with a bright smile, yet her killing intent locked onto him. She looked at him while she was hesitating if she should delete his [Plot Armor] skill or not.

In the back of her mind, she planned to allow Tong to be summoned back. Once he got back, he would forget everything. Then, she could slowly feed him information. She could tell him that she was his only girlfriend so that he would be hers alone.

But her conscience was battling with her desire. She also wanted him to remember her, and she was afraid that his personality might change because of the memory wipe.

Tong tilted his head to the side in confusion and thought.

'Who is this little girl?'

He glanced at Hua Shi at the back who held her palms together in a prayer position to gesture an apology and praying for him.

Tong knelt down on one knee to talk to Dong Bai in the same eye level.

"Umm. Missy, who…"

"I'm your goddamn woman, you idiot piece of #$%%! I looked away from you for one and a half decade, you already put a baby in that girl's womb! If I wait for you for another 100 years, won't you impregnate every girl in the city?"

"Eh? You are... who?"

Veins popped up under Dong Bai's facial skins. She controlled her breathing and put her palm on Tong's forehead.

"Administrator command, target [Plot Armor], delete it!"

[Eh? What the hack?]

[Why didn't you do what I told you to!?]

[Fine, you have failed my mission. I'll erase all your demonic power in your soul!]

[Oh, I have just noticed. You don't have anything left in you, so I'll erase your [Seal] too.]

[You are free now. Have fun, "little human".]

Dong Bai felt her mind lightened, but she also felt that she had just lost something precious to her. The sense of her loss overwhelmed Dong Bai. She cried.

'Now I have nothing left. I'm now a powerless human.'

Meanwhile, Tong received odd notification messages.

…

"What in the world!?"

Tong shouted in a panic. His lifeline skill changed into a weaker skill without him knowing anything. Then he swept his glance toward the crying little girl.

"Little miss, what did you do?"

Dong Bai did not stop crying. She stepped forward and hugged Tong without saying anything, which made Tong baffled by her actions.

Hua Shi, who had been observing them from the beginning, walked toward Tong to give him an explanation.

"This is Dong Bai. She's the granddaughter of Dong Zhuo… and the reincarnation of your ex-girlfriend."

"What!?"

"You didn't hear me wrong. She's Friday."

The grip of Dong Bai tightened. She buried her face into Tong's chest and wailed.

She missed Tong.

She lost her status as a demoness.

She lost all her hard-earned power.

She was now a powerless little girl in the ancient world.

She hugged Tong while she was trembling in despair. She feared that if Tong was not here, she would have nothing to cling on, and her heart would have been destroyed.

Tong could sense the sadness and the desperation of Dong Bai. He hugged her and pressed her body to him. Then he whispered.

"I'm here."

"It's ok now."

"Everything is going to be alright."

"We'll be together."

Dong Bai's body shook, yet her tears did not stop. She cried even harder than before, but it was not from sadness. She was so happy to hear his voice again.

"Take her to your room. You guys probably have a lot to catch up on."

"Huh? Sunday, what about you? The sun has set. Where are you going to sleep?"

"I'll sleep in my former room tonight. Go ahead and take her away. You'll attract more rumors if you let her cry here."

"OK. Sorry for today."

"Go, go. Shoo!"

"Hahaha!"

Tong princess-carried Dong Bai and took her to his room, so they could talk in private.

Hua Shi looked at the back of Tong. A drop of tear rolled down from her eye. She bit her lips in bitterness and jealousy.

"Please, don't forget me."

"And don't forget this child."

"We'll be here if you need us."

"So don't abandon us."

Both her hands covered her face, Hua Shi stood and wept alone.

…

…

Next morning, Hua Shi woke up in her room with sullen eyes. She cried all night, even in her dreams.

She did not take a bath last night and forgot to clean the cosmetic on her face, so she went out to take a hot bath.

Then she met Dong Bai there.

Dong Bai also had sullen eyes like hers. She seemed to have cried all night as well.

Both of them paused to stare at each other for a few seconds. Then they laughed.

"WTF is wrong with your face, brat? Have you decide to quit being a human and join the pandas?"

"Hahaha! Bitch, you're the panda! Heck, you're a panda with the messed up mascara and your eyeliner. Did you buy a cheap one from the market?"

Unlike yesterday, they jeered and mocked each other in a friendlier manner. The all-nighter weeping released all of their accumulating negative thoughts. They felt better now.

They took a bath together while they gossiped and bragged about their bed experiences with Tong.

"If you try the XXX position, he'll OOO in less than a minute!"

"What? How? I did try the XXX and ZZZ, but his OOOO lasted for half an hour."

"Did you allow him to squeeze your #### while he @@@? I'm sure he loves XXXXX"

"Hahaha! Oh yeah! He actually drooled when we OOO XXX in the ##### and ZZZZ."

They were so into the gossip to the point that they were in the bath for almost two hours. Both of them had to get out after they realized that their fingers and skins wrinkled.

"Haiz, I can't mate with him with this body."

"Me too, I want his seeds but he didn't allow me to drink it."

They continued to chat even after the bath. The content of the conversation focused on the lewd parts which made the passing by maids bowed their head in embarrassment.

Zou Shi came back to visit the two and to see if they continued fighting. However, after she heard their conversations, she fled back to Sima Manor with a red face.

"Say, since we can't XXX with him, how about we punish him a bit." Dong Bai brought up her desire.

"Ah, I've been thinking about it as well. Right, did you know that he can regenerate his lost body parts?"

"Ho? He has that kind of skill?"

"Yup, we can share our status menu, so I knew about it."

Dong Bai's eyes lit up. Hua Shi taught her about the Soulmate Contract and the Soulmate Missions which gave back Dong Bai's hope. Both of them conspired among themselves from morning till night.

…

Last night, Tong embraced the crying girl until she fell asleep. He did not get a good sleep all night as he felt guilty for cheating on her. He wanted to apologize but no word had come out.

There were many questions in his mind, including the sudden deletion of his [Plot Armor] skill and the birth of his [Fledging Demonic Body] skill.

In the end, he left his room in the early morning to get some fresh air and exercises. Then he went to work with a tired expression.

As planned, he coaxed his father, Zhang Jiao, to drink a tea mixed with his blood. Then Tong made him joined his Clan by the annual quota Clan Contract.

The moment the clan menu and a chat box appeared in front of Zhang Jiao, he smiled and sighed. After seeing so many miracles by Tong all these years, he was not surprised anymore.

...

'I need two more members. I wonder if Friday can be part of the clan.'

'There's also a matter about my skill. She hasn't told me why she deleted it.'

'I wonder if she gets better yet.'

'Aw crap, I forgot about Sunday. Is she still ok after Friday arrived?'

Tong took a deep breath. Being two-timer was a sin, and he was suffering the consequence.

Tong returned to his residence area after the dinner, only to find Hua Shi and Dong Bai in his room.

"What are you two doing here together? Are you alright now?"

Both ladies smiled at Tong, but he detected a faint murderous aura from them. Something was amiss.

"We're fine!"

"We're ok! Actually, we consider each other as sisters now!"

"Yup, yup!"

Tong had an awkward smile on his face. A harem with more than two girls living together in harmony only existed in novels and fictions. Something was wrong with these two.

"Umm, I know it's late. But I want to say, I'm sorry to both of you…"

Tong clumsily apologized to the two which did not seem to listen to his words.

"It's alright, my dear. I forgive you." Spoke Dong Bai.

"Yes, we don't mind it. As a matter of facts, we have come to an agreement."

"BUT" Both girls spoke at the same time.

Hua Shi took out a short sword while Dong Bai took out sharp scissors.

Tong saw a bad premonition coming up. The memories about Friday and the sinners in Hell flashbacked from the back of his head. He understood what they were trying to do.

"For the sake of not adding another member, we should teach you a lesson why you shouldn't be kind to every woman."

"Yes, my dear husband. Please be obedient and take off your pants. We'll inspect your body, so you won't be contaminated by any unknown bitch in the future."

…

…

That night, there were mysterious cries from Tong's residential areas. It was said to be the sound of a man crying in agony over and over again all night.

After that day, many people and the officials tried to investigate the origin of the voices, but none found a lead.

A new gossip emerged that Tong residence areas were haunted by a mysterious male ghost which made many maids quit the job later.</a></your></your></your></someone></the></you></your></your></you></this></you></ding>
