Day 1 in Zhenguan

Zhenguan is a 6-hour bus ride away from their town. It'll be much faster if they use the train, but considering the situation and how busy the day is, the university decided to rent out three buses for this trip.

The sun is about to set, and even though they've left the school premises early, they still got to their destination because of traffic.

Roulan and Yanmei left the bus but were quickly stopped by a familiar face in front of them.

"Yanmei! I missed you!"

Guang quickly flung herself towards her friend's body.

Yanmei, clearly not having any idea that Guang would already be in front of them, was quickly pushed back.

Anticipating their fall together, her eyes quickly shot close but opened quickly as her back collided with someone.

She opened her eyes, looking up and seeing Roulan behind them.

"Guang, let go."

"No!"

Guang said, her head shaking on both sides as she disagreed with Yanmei.

"Let go."

"No, I haven't seen you-"

"Someone needs to get out."

Guang quickly let go of the hug and looked at the person behind Yanmei.

She smiles at Roulan before furrowing her eyebrows at the woman in front of her.

"Ah, my friend-in-law!"

Roulan's eyes widen at the sudden loudness of Guang's voice. She looks around the area, not seeing anyone, causing her to sigh in relief.

"Don't shout like that."

Yanmei said, fixing her posture as she walked away from the bus, with Guang and Roulan following her.

"Is it River College's field trip as well?"

Yanmei spoke, her voice cold, as Guang looked at Roulan for an answer. The taller woman shrugs her shoulder, causing Guang to glare at her.

The stare-down between the two seems to have an unexplainable aura as Yanmei stops walking, causing the two to bump into her.

Roulan's body quickly collided, while Guang was quick to drop Yanmei's luggage on the ground.

"Why did you stop?"

"That hurts."

Guang and Roulan spoke. The taller woman rubbed her chest area, feeling a pain crawling within.

Yanmei's eyes went and she looked at her before looking at Guang, grabbing the woman's arms and pulling her beside.

"Let Roulan carry my luggage."

She said before the two walked away from the taller. Roulan sighs and shakes her head, grabbing the luggage on the ground before walking inside the hotel building.

-

The elevator door opens, and her eyes scan the area, not seeing a single student around.

Her eyebrows raise, probably concluding that the students went inside their respective hotel rooms to take a rest and enjoy Zhenguan tomorrow.

Roulan quickly went and grabbed the suitcases on the ground, her eyes looking up at the doors, to find her hotel room.

205.

206.

207.

208.

Roulan stops for awhile, her hands putting back the suitcases on the ground, before pulling the hotel room key from her pocket.

Her head nodded, seeing the right room she's facing.

She quickly put the key in the keyhole and opened the door, inhaling a familiar scent that seemed to have struck her head.

She quickly froze on her spot, wondering whether she should walk inside or not.

"Aren't you going to go in and drop those bags?"

A soft voice spoke, Huiqing's head peaking from the wall, looking at her curiously.

Roulan gave her a small smile before walking inside and dropping the luggage.

Huiqing glances.

"Are those Yanmei's?"

"Yes."

"Why are you carrying her luggage?"

Roulan looks at her before sitting on the farthest bed. She sighs before she grabs her phone, feeling it vibrating in her pocket.

"I volunteered to do so."

Roulan quickly typed a reply to her boss, saying that she'll be returning to work by Thursday as she is occupied with school at the moment.

Even though Yanmei is well-off and told her not to work anymore, she still wanted to pay the debt she has on her boss.

After all, when she left their town, her boss was the first person to help her find a school and job to continue studying.

Roulan felt the bed shift beside her; she quickly looked up from her phone and saw Huiqing beside her.

"Roulan."

The mentioned girl hummed in response, and she quickly put her phone down on the bedside table.

She quickly felt her back getting in contact with the soft mattress as arms wrapped around her neck and a head collided with her chest.

The door opening causes Roulan to shuffle and was about to push the shorter girl away from her body but is quickly stopped by a fake cough.

"You guys should go and find a room."

A cold voice spoke, causing Huiqing to raise her head to look at Yanmei as she smiled widely.

"We should, right? But then it's alright, since we're all friends here!"

Huiqing shouted excitedly. She quickly detached herself from Roulan and went towards Yanmei to hug the slightly taller woman.

Yanmei glares at Roulan; her arms wrap around the younger woman's body, but their hug is cut short by a phone ringing.

"Opps, that's mine."

Huiqing pulled away from the embrace and went out of their hotel room, causing Roulan to gulp as she saw how Yanmei's hands balled.

"You bastard."

Yanmei went towards where Roulan was, grabbing the taller woman's collar as she lifted her up from the bed at ease.

"Yanmei, please calm down."

"I'm fine with hands holding, hugging, and kissing your cheeks, but that's beyond the line!"

Yanmei whispered a shout, and Roulan has her eyebrows furrowed at what Yanmei just told her.

"Huiqing was only hugging me!"

"No! Why the hell are your hands on her butt?"

Roulan looks away from Yanmei, and she remembers that her hand placement was near Huiqing's butt.

She gulped before looking back at Yanmei's eyes, her voice speaking gentler.

"Yanmei, it's just at her lower back."

"Then if you can do that with her, you should do it with me too."

Yanmei forces Roulan back on the bed, her body colliding with Roulan's frame as she hugs the taller woman by her neck.

Her head is going towards Roulan's neck as she inhales the scent and grabs the younger woman's hands, placing them on her buttocks.

"Hey!"

"Shh! Don't be so dramatic; you were supposed to hold them naked anyway."

Yanmei said, referring to what they were supposed to do back on their honeymoon.

Roulan couldn't help but gulp as she imagined what should happen. Her head quickly shook as she looked away from the woman on top of her.

"You imagine doing me right?"

"No! That's just disrespectful!"

Yanmei raises her head from Roulan's neck, her right hand grabbing the latter's chin, and guides her head to face her.

"Oh, baby, you can do whatever you want to."

"Still, I don't want to look like a pervert thinking of doing that without your permission. I still need to respect you."

Yanmei's lips widen as her heart beats erratically inside her chest. She couldn't help but feel the blush creep towards her cheeks, causing Roulan to get worried.

"Are you sick?"

"How can you say so?"

"Your face is red."

Roulan went to raise her right hand from Yanmei's, putting the back of her palm on the older woman's forehead and feeling her temperature.

"You don't seem sick."

"Silly, I'm blushing because of your sweet, delicious mouth."
