Yazmin complained exasperatedly, “Why are you always yelling at me? Can't you just smile? I thought Erwen is aloof. I can't believe you're even colder than her.”
Zeke got a little irritated. “I'm going back to my room since you have nothing to say.”
With that, he turned to leave.
Yet, Yazmin hurriedly stopped him. “Wait. I have nothing for you, but someone wants to see you and tell you something important.”
Looking at her eyes, Zeke questioned, “Is that true?”
Yazmin shifted her gaze. “Of course. Why would I lie to you in the middle of the night?”
Zeke could tell that she was lying to him.
However, he did not expose her.
I should just go and see what she's trying to do.
Since Zeke was strong and capable, he knew that Yazmin could not hurt him.
He asked, “Who wants to see me?”
Yazmin replied, “You'll find out later.”
Zeke then said, “Lead the way.”
Yazmin answered, “Sure.”
She then led Zeke through the village.
The village appeared beautiful under the moonlight.
Many lotuses covered the surface of the lakes around them. Yazmin plucked two lotus pods and gave Zeke one of them. As she continued walking, she started eating the seeds in the other one.
Zeke observed carefully and found that it was not poisoned.
Seems like she's not going to harm me.
When they finished eating the lotus seeds, they had arrived at their destination. It was a double-story building.
Yazmin said, “I've completed my mission. You can get in now. The person inside wants to see you.”
Zeke asked curiously, “Whose residence is this?”
Yazmin answered, “You'll find out after you get in.”
“You'd better not play any tricks,” Zeke warned before he stepped into the house.
The interior of the house was spacious, bright, and clean. It was red in color, and the design showed that it was a girl's room.
He could sense a girl's scent in the room. This scent... seems familiar. It smells like Holy Maiden's body scent. Is this Erwen's room? According to Muraco's law, only Holy Maiden's father and her husband are allowed to enter her room. I'm in her room now, does that mean... D*mn it. Yazmin has fooled me.
He instinctively tried to run away.
However, it was too late. The next moment, he had found a sword being rested on his neck.
“Do not move. Who are you? Why did you come in here?”
Oh no... It's Erwen's voice.
Zeke let out a sigh before he turned around slowly. “It's me.”
Yet, he was instantly stunned.
At that moment, Erwen was not properly dressed. Her long hair was draped over her shoulders. She was dressed in a white lacey nightgown, and she appeared sexy in it.
Seeing the gorgeous aloof goddess in sexy sleepwear, even Zeke could not contain himself.
However, he had extremely great willpower. Hence, he still looked calm on the outside.
“You?”
Erwen gasped at him in surprise. “What are you doing in my room so late at night?”
Zeke quickly explained, “Yazmin brought me here. I didn't know this is your room! Yazmin, get in here!”
He turned to look at the door, but Yazmin instantly fled the scene.
Erwen castigated, “Yazmin, stop right there! Come here! Otherwise, I'll tell everyone about your embarrassing story.”
Yazmin immediately halted her steps. With a bitter look, she came back to the house. “Erwen, you can't do this. You've promised me to forget about it. How could you threaten me with it?”
Erwen put her sword back and questioned, “Yazmin, what are you trying to do?”
Yazmin answered, “Nothing. I made a mistake and brought him to the wrong place. However, according to the rules of the village, apart from your father, the man who steps into your room will be your husband. Therefore, you have to marry Zeke now!”
