Why bother with dating when you already have a cat?

When they got home from the cat cafe, the two of them held hands and immediately went upstairs to the bathroom to take a shower.

As a result, Xiaoyu wasn't very well-behaved while taking a bath. With plenty of warm air and no shortage of backup, the two of them started burying themselves in cultivation again.

If they really wanted to cleanse their bodies, the two of them could simply turn into cats and then back.

But Xiaoyu rarely uses this method now. She has started to put her clothes in the washing machine to wash, just like Aiqing does, and is truly adapting to being an ordinary person.

It's the same when I take a shower now.

And the little fish really enjoys taking baths, especially the feeling of hot water on its body.

Unfortunately, Ai Qing couldn't stand the water temperature. What Xiao Yu found just right and very comfortable was always a bit too hot for Ai Qing.

However, this doesn't prevent the two of them from practicing dual cultivation inside.

After coming out of the bathroom, Ai Qing and Xiao Yu changed their clothes, went to the living room to get a hairdryer, and started drying their hair.

Because boys' hair dries quickly, Xiaoyu first pressed Ai Qing down on the sofa, then happily went behind the sofa to blow-dry Ai Qing's hair.

After the air dryer is dried, it will be Ai Qing's turn.

Just as Ai Qing was drying Xiao Yu's hair, her phone vibrated a few times.

So Ai Qing said, "Can you help me see what the information is?"

Xiaoyu picked up Aiqing's phone, unlocked it with her fingerprint, opened Aiqing's WeChat, and then raised her head and said, "It's Sister Youqian."

"What did she say?" Ai Qing pressed her head back down and asked.

"Let me see." Xiaoyu clicked in and looked, then said, "Sister Youqian said she asked if we wanted to go skiing together in a few days?"

"Skiing?" Ai Qing raised an eyebrow, then frowned slightly.

"Is skiing like that?" Xiaoyu asked with anticipation. "You put your feet on a long plank and then glide up and down the snowy mountain like that? I've seen it online, it looks so amazing!"

Seeing Xiaoyu's excited expression, Ai Qing pursed her lips and said to her, "Could you ask her for me what the specific arrangements are?"

"oh oh."

Xiaoyu nodded and started typing away on Aiqing's phone.

Xiao Youqian replied very quickly.

Xiaoyu looked at Ai Qing's WeChat message and said, word by word, "Sister Youqian said she plans to go skiing at a ski resort in the southwest of Hangzhou. It's expected to last three days and two nights, and she can also soak in hot springs there."

"A hot spring!"

When Xiaoyu read this, her eyes lit up: "Is it that kind of hot spring, the kind I see in anime?"

"Um... there might be some differences." Ai Qing had never been to a hot spring in China and wasn't very clear about this kind of thing, but he still poured cold water on the idea, "Xiao Yu, we haven't sorted out the ID card issue yet, it might cause some trouble."

"When buying tickets for a ski resort, you might need your ID card, and if you're going to stay there for three days and two nights, you'll definitely need to stay in a hotel at night."

"Hotels will definitely require ID card registration, which will create another problem."

"Eh...is that so..." Xiaoyu was a little disappointed when she heard this, and her head drooped down.

Ai Qing felt somewhat helpless seeing her like this, but he still said, "Why don't you tell her about the situation? Sister Qian might have a solution."

"Should we just say it directly?" Little Fish blinked, looking expectant again.

“Okay, go ahead.” Ai Qing nodded, her right hand still fiddling with Xiao Yu’s hair. “Just say that because of your identity, you don’t have an ID card, so you might not be able to enter the ski resort and hotel.”

"oh oh."

Xiaoyu nodded and sent this message to Xiao Youqian.

Soon, Xiao Youqian sent another message.

"Huh?" Little Fish let out a soft exclamation.

Ai Qing, standing behind the sofa, raised an eyebrow and asked, "Judging from this, she has a solution?"

"Mmm!" Xiaoyu's mood brightened considerably, and she quickly turned to Ai Qing and said, "Sister Youqian said that the owner of the ski resort is a relative of Kong Fugui, so we can go in through the back door without having to queue."

"And Sister Youqian has a friend who owns a villa near the ski resort. He usually uses it as a guesthouse for rent. He can lend it to us so we don't have to stay in a hotel."

Upon hearing this, Ai Qing immediately nodded: "Then you want to go, right?"

"Of course!" Little Fish nodded vigorously.

"If there are no problems, then please agree for me. Ask her what time it is, and let my parents know in advance when we eat, so that we don't run into each other."

"Okay!" Xiaoyu quickly lowered her head and continued typing. She soon received a reply from Xiao Youqian: "Sister Youqian said that the tentative time is the fifth day of the Lunar New Year. We will leave on the morning of the fifth day, play for two days, and come back after lunch on the seventh day."

"That's great, we'll be back to work on the eighth day of the new year," Ai Qing said with a chuckle. "Old Wu and Gui Gui should both be able to go."

"Yes, that's right." Xiaoyu nodded and said, "Sister Youqian said she's already asked, and the two of them will be going too. Then she asked you if you wanted to ask Qiqi if she's going too?"

"Oh, then you can ask her." Ai Qing clicked her tongue. "I was planning to open the business on the third day of the Lunar New Year, but it looks like I'll have to give her a few more days off. It's a bit of a loss. I'll just deduct it from her salary."

"Brother, you're so naughty." Xiaoyu said this while already opening Li Qiqi's WeChat and sending her a message using Ai Qing's phone.

A short while later, Li Qiqi also replied.

[Li Qiqi]: Skiing! Hot springs! Dude, it's amazing you still remember me.

[Rise, my dear subject]: No, it's Xiaoyu typing now, and it was Sister Youqian who asked me to ask you.

[Li Qiqi]: Huh? Oh, it's Little Fish. No wonder.

[Li Qiqi]: Anyway, I want to go too! I want to go too! Don't leave me behind!

[Rise, my dear subject]: Okay, then I'll go tell Sister Youqian.

After confirming with Li Qiqi, Xiaoyu replied to Xiao Youqian's message.

Soon, a WeChat group of six people was created.

Ai Qing dried Xiao Yu's hair, combed it for a while, then sat down next to her, took her phone, and glanced at the group chat.

[Kong Fugui]: Tell me your shoe size and clothing size, and I'll have someone prepare your ski equipment.

[Li Qiqi]: Just wondering, what should I do if I've never skied before?

[Xiao Youqian]: Don't worry, I will teach you. I will take care of the girls, and Gui Gui will take care of the boys.

[Kong Fugui]: They're all grown men, what's there to teach them? They'll learn after falling a few times.

[Kong Fugui]: There's a small private area near the ski resort. When we go there, no one will be competing with us for a spot, and we'll have a better time.

[Ai Qing]: No wonder he's a second-generation rich kid, he has so many connections.

[Wu Yong]: I have a question.

【孔赋归】：Question.

[Wu Yong]: Sister Qian, how many rooms does that friend's guesthouse have?

[Xiao Youqian]: There should be six bedrooms. It's a four-story villa with three rooms on the second and third floors, which is enough for us.

[Wu Yong]: Can I bring another person with me?

[Xiao Youqian]: Oh wow? Something's up!

[Kong Fugui]: You can bring people, but they must be girls, not guys.

[Wu Yong]: I'm the only female colleague.

【孔赋归】: What is the relationship?

【Wu Yong】: Ordinary friend relationship.

[Kong Fugui]: That won't do, Lao Wu. We're already acquaintances. It would be too awkward if you brought someone who's just a casual acquaintance.

[Wu Yong]: My girlfriend.

[Xiao Youqian]: Wow~

[Li Qiqi]: Wow! It's that female teacher you brought last time, right? Right, right, right?

[Wu Yong]: Actually, we haven't officially defined our relationship...

[Kong Fugui]: Have you held hands yet?

[Wu Yong]: I just held your hand when we were crossing the street, does that count?

[Xiao Youqian]: That's not all? If you weren't interested, and you dared to hold my hand, I would have slapped you across the face long ago.

[Wu Yong]: So I brought her in?

[Xiao Youqian]: Let's do it.

Before long, new people joined the group.

[Xie Qiaohe]: Hello everyone.

[Xiao Youqian]: Welcome, welcome! We're tentatively setting off on the morning of the fifth day of the Lunar New Year. I've rented a minibus. Let's meet at the entrance of our community. Lao Wu, can you pick up your girlfriend?

[Xiao Youqian]: Oh right, everyone remember to bring your swimsuits, we're going to soak in a hot spring. There's a really nice hot spring there, and the villas even have their own hot spring pools.

[Wu Yong]: Um...

[Xiao Youqian]: Don't interrupt, let me finish.

[Xiao Youqian]: This time we went skiing at a relative's ski resort, which is free. However, we still have to pay for meals and such. It will be about six or seven meals over three days and two nights. I will collect 500 yuan per person in advance, and we will make up the difference later.

Xiao Youqian was a class committee member when she was in school, and later she was a member of the student union in college. She was very organized in doing things.

Kong Fugui transferred 500 first, and Ai Qing followed suit by transferring 1500 to Xiao Youqian, including Li Qiqi's share.

[Li Qiqi]: Cousin, when did you become so generous?

[Ai Qing]: You wish! I'm just deducting it from your salary.

[Li Qiqi]: Damn!

While the two were joking around in the group chat, Wu Yong silently transferred 1000 yuan to them.

Seeing this, Ai Qing left the group chat. Sure enough, in the group chat of the three boys, Kong Fugui had already tagged Lao Wu.

[Kong Fugui]: Don't you dare interrupt, your sister Qian is helping you. @Wu Yong

[Kong Fugui]: Look, the girl hasn't even denied that you're her girlfriend, so why are you in such a hurry to explain?

[Kong Fugui]: Quick, quick, pay for her, just transfer 1,000 directly. @Wu Yong

While Kong Fugui was teaching step by step, the skiing group was peaceful and undisturbed.
