Looking at Dongfang Yao and Wang Qiu'er, who were locked in a fierce argument and staring intently at him, Dongfang Jing felt a sudden headache coming on.
"Didn't we already agree on this? One room per person, we're not short of money for the room," Dongfang Jing tried to persuade.
"No!" the two women said in unison, rejecting his suggestion without hesitation.
Dongfang Jing was taken aback and decided to adopt a strategy of defeating them one by one.
He first looked at his younger sister, Dongfang Yao: "Yao'er, we're not children anymore. I remember telling you before that boys and girls are different, and that you should respect each other when you grow up."
Dongfang Yao didn't care about these grand principles.
She secretly longed to break down this so-called "gender difference" with her brother.
She immediately hugged Dongfang Jing's arm tightly, her expression changing in an instant!
Her big eyes instantly welled up with tears, and her voice was filled with a mix of grievance and coquettishness: "But we haven't seen each other for five years! Yao'er really has so many things she wants to say to her brother!"
As she spoke, she gently shook her brother's arm.
Seeing his younger sister's tearful and affectionate expression, Dongfang Jing's heart softened instantly.
This reason was indeed difficult for him to refute.
Perfect timing, I can tell her about Brigitte and the others' true identities tonight.
He sighed helplessly, which was tantamount to acquiescing to his sister's request.
So, Dongfang Jing turned his gaze to the other side.
Before he could even speak, Wang Qiu'er had already grabbed his other arm with lightning speed, holding on even tighter than Dongfang Yao.
Yao'er's feelings were overwhelming because she missed her brother, which is understandable.
Qiu'er, what's wrong with you now?
Dongfang Jing really couldn't understand it.
It's strange, but thinking back on those years in the Star Dou Great Forest,
Every night, Wang Qiu'er, in her three-eyed golden lion form, would habitually crawl into his bed.
Either sleep next to him or practice cultivation together beside him.
Could it be that this habit of sleeping in the same bed was retained even after taking human form?
'Could it be that Qiu'er has already developed this habit?' Dongfang Jing's heart skipped a beat.
This is not good!
This means he will have absolutely no personal privacy at night!
But this habit is obviously not something that can be changed in a short time.
Dongfang Jing felt his head hurt even more.
He turned to look at the women behind him, his eyes pleading for help, hoping someone would step forward and say a word to help him out of the predicament.
However, not a single one of these women, who seemed to enjoy watching the drama unfold, offered any help.
Xue Di and Bing Di were looking around the magnificent and resplendent decor of the inn's lobby with great interest.
As soon as Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong met Dongfang Jing's gaze, they immediately turned their heads to the side in tacit agreement. One pretended to study the mural on the wall, while the other even whistled nonchalantly, clearly keeping to herself.
As for Xiao Wu, she was in the car and had already learned about the situation.
The identities of people like Biji were revealed to be those of seniors from the Land of Great Calamity, and even seniors from the Far North!
So she was still processing this information, and therefore seemed somewhat distracted.
Only Ah Yin and Bi Ji looked at the somewhat chaotic scene, exchanged a glance, and had a helpless smile in their eyes.
In the end, Brigitte repeated that familiar phrase: "My disciple, you've grown up. There are some things you need to handle on your own."
All right
Neither Master nor Sister A-Yin offered any help.
As more and more guests and service staff gathered to watch the commotion,
A group of people standing in the middle of the hall looked really out of place.
Dongfang Jing took a deep breath, made a decisive decision, and put it on the spot:
"In this way, Sister Xue'er and Sister Bing'er will share a room, Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing will share a room, and Sister A'yin and Master will share a room."
at last,
He looked at Dongfang Yao and Wang Qiu'er, who were still arguing on either side: "You two each give way a little, and the three of us can share a room, is that alright?"
Upon hearing this, Dongfang Yao and Wang Qiu'er exchanged a glance and finally nodded in agreement.
Others naturally had no objection to this allocation plan.
Thus, the minor incident finally subsided.
Each person took their room number and went to their assigned room to settle in and rest.
As soon as Dongfang Jing entered the three-person room, his expression immediately became somewhat strange.
Triple room?
Logically, there should be three separate beds.
But why is there only one enormous bed in this spacious room?
This layout just doesn't seem quite right.
He turned to leave, saying, "This room isn't right. I'll go find a waiter to change it."
"Hey! Brother, don't go!" Dongfang Yao grabbed his arm quickly. "It's so late. The waiters are all working people, it's not easy for them. Don't bother them to change rooms."
Dongfang Jing was full of questions. He stopped and looked at her: "It's good to be considerate of others, but changing rooms is just a matter of saying a few words. How troublesome could it be?"
Wang Qiu'er then spoke up, her voice carrying a matter-of-fact tone: "A big bed is nice, I like big ones."
As if she had found an ally, Dongfang Yao chimed in with a grin, "Look, two against one! Brother, the minority submits to the majority, right?"
After driving all day, even a Soul Master would inevitably feel tired.
Dongfang Jing was too lazy to argue with the two of them about the room any longer, so she sighed and compromised, "Alright, as long as you two don't mind. I'll go take a shower first."
"Okay, go ahead."
The two watched him walk into the bathroom.
As soon as the bathroom door closed, the room fell silent.
The smiles on the two women's faces vanished instantly, their eyes meeting in mid-air, filled with wariness towards each other.
Wang Qiu'er was naturally assertive and direct, but she had toned it down a bit when Dongfang Jing was present.
Now that he's gone, she finally spoke her mind, her tone tinged with dissatisfaction: "Even though you're his sister, isn't this clinginess a bit too much?"
Dongfang Yao retorted without backing down, "He's my brother, what's wrong with me clinging to him? It's only natural! But you..."
She raised an eyebrow, her tone questioning: "You're just my brother's female friend, yet you insist on sharing a room with him? Don't you think that's a bit overstepping your bounds?"
Wang Qiu'er was speechless for a moment, unable to find a suitable reason to refute him, and her brows furrowed tightly.
Seeing this, Dongfang Yao, being as clever as she is, immediately caught the other person's momentary lapse in speech.
With a soft snort, she bluntly stated, "I think I've figured it out, Wang Qiu'er, do you like my brother?"
"I didn't!!!" Wang Qiu'er immediately denied it.
Two rare blushes rose on her fair, jade-like cheeks, revealing a hint of panic.
Dongfang Yao rolled her eyes.
I thought to myself, he was so aggressive just now, but now he's acting all high and mighty.
"Stop pretending, you're being too obvious. You can fool your brother, but you can't fool me."
"You!" Wang Qiu'er was both ashamed and angry. The blush on her face spread quickly, and even the tips of her ears turned red.
She retorted, somewhat exasperated, "And what about you? You're so clingy to your brother, could it be that you like him too?"
Even Wang Qiu'er herself was taken aback when she said those words.
But the more I thought about it, the more likely it seemed!
Her beautiful eyes widened suddenly.
Pointing at the stiff-faced Dongfang Yao in front of him, he was so shocked that his voice rose several decibels: "You...you have a brother complex?!"
