I just wanted to cultivate immortality, but I was forced to open a harem

What comes into view is a small room with a double bed 2 meters long and 2 meters wide in the center. A single sofa, a desk and a chair are placed against the wall. Then there is a TV facing the bed, a small coffee table with a kettle on it, and a wardrobe built into the wall.

A gust of wind blew, lifting the curtains in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows. The dazzling city lights and the dark blue sea under the moonlight slowly unfolded before them like a picture scroll.

"The scenery is pretty good. We can really see the sea." Mai cheered and ran to the window, resting her forehead against the glass, admiring the night view.

Lin Hezhen walked to the bed and sat down, feeling the springy mattress, and said, "Then I'll have to inconvenience you to sleep in the same bed with me tonight. Just so you know, don't take the opportunity to attack me at night, or I'll kick you in my sleep."

"Who would attack you at night? Narcissist!" Sakurajima Mai turned around and glared at him, "On the contrary, you, behave yourself at night, don't even think about touching me, and don't grind your teeth or snore when you sleep."

"Don't worry, I sleep well. At most I woke up in the middle of the night and sleepwalked. Don't be too surprised if you saw me."

"You can actually sleepwalk? How terrible!" Sakurajima Mai was so scared that she crossed her arms and hugged her shoulders.

"Of course I'm kidding."

"What a bad character."

"Thanks for the compliment."

Mai Sakurajima turned her head away from the shameless and malicious guy, took off her boots, sat on the sofa, and turned on the TV with the remote control.

She swung her feet and switched channels, but couldn't find the program she wanted to watch, so she simply turned off the TV, stretched her back, and stood up, saying, "I'm going to take a shower."

"Please do as you please." Lin Hezhen calmly withdrew his gaze from Mai's feet.

"Don't peek," she warned.

"It's not a question of peeping or not. In fact, the bathroom is designed to be viewed openly."

Sakurajima Mai was stunned for a moment when she heard this.

Only then did she realize that there was no wall in the bathroom facing the bed. Instead, there was a whole wall of transparent glass, not even frosted. The person on the bed could see everything that happened in the bathroom without any obstruction.

"What kind of design is this? It's so shameless!" Her face flushed like a boiling kettle, bubbling with steam.

Lin Hezhen shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly and said, "Well, that's what a king-size bed room is."

Aren't the men and women who book this kind of room here for the purpose of being frank? The hotel just adds a little fun to them, and the customers should praise their thoughtfulness.

However, for people of the opposite sex like Hayashi Kazuma and Sakurajima Mai, whose relationship had not yet reached that stage, the situation was a bit awkward.

"It's really too fast. I'm not mentally prepared at all..." Sakurajima Mai muttered to herself with her head down, struggling internally.

After appreciating her shy and tangled look for a while, Lin Hezhen chuckled and reminded her, "Look, there is a curtain on the bathroom glass. You can just draw the curtain when you take a shower. Then I won't be able to see you, right?"

Sakurajima Mai looked carefully and found a waterproof curtain. She breathed a sigh of relief: "Yes, I'll go take a shower first. Don't do anything weird."

"Don't worry, I'm not that hungry yet."

Mai Sakurajima walked into the room, locked the bathroom door, closed the curtain, and started running the water and taking off her clothes.

"Hey, which LSP designed this bathroom? It's so fun." Lin Hezhen was stunned as he looked at the beautiful body projected on the curtain by the light.

Because the light in the bathroom was much brighter than outside, Lin Hezhen could clearly see the shadow of Sakurajima Mai.

She unzipped the side of her skirt, took it off gently, and then unbuttoned her top one by one, revealing her curvy and graceful body.

Lin Hezhen swallowed and felt as if a fire was burning in his heart.

Sakurajima Mai continued to move. She bent down and slowly took off the black stockings wrapped around her slender legs. Then she lifted her long hair and reached behind her back to untie the restraints on her chest...

Lin Hezhen immediately turned around, closed his eyes, and his heart was pounding.

He shook his head, trying to forget what had just happened, but it seemed to have been engraved into his DNA, playing over and over in his mind in the form of 3D four-channel surround sound.

"This is really, it's better to get two rooms."

"Form is emptiness, emptiness is form..."

He took a few deep breaths, then sat cross-legged on the bed with his back to the bathroom, silently reciting the mantra and began to practice.

Chapter 49 Beautiful Dream

After an unknown amount of time, Mai Sakurajima finally finished her bath. She wore the yukata provided by the hotel, with a towel wrapped around her hair. Her face was flushed after the bath. She poked her head out and said, "What should I do? I didn't bring any clean underwear."

Lin Hezhen slowly finished her exercise and said, "Girls are really troublesome. It's okay if I don't change my clothes for a day, right?"

Sakurajima Mai insisted, "What are you talking about? How can you not change your underwear and socks?"

"Why don't I help you clean it up?"

"You'd better let me die!" Sakurajima Mai shouted in shame and anger.

Lin Hezhen suppressed his laughter and said in a serious tone, "What are you thinking about? I meant to use magic to help you clean up."

"Oh, um, so that's it..."

Mai thought of the magical spells that Lin Hezhen had performed and couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief, yet at the same time felt embarrassed for her overreaction.

"How do you think I'm going to help you? Wash your hands?" he asked with a smirk.

"I've never thought of it that way!"

"Actually, you can even wash it by hand. I won't mind Mai wearing underwear for only one day. Rather, it would be better if it had some smell."

"Stop saying such perverted things!" Sakurajima Mai finally couldn't hold it anymore. She pulled off the towel on her head and threw it at Lin Kazuma.

The towel hit Lin Hezhen's face - he deliberately did not dodge.

It turned out that his sacrifice was meaningful, because the towel on his face was emitting a sweet fragrance. I don’t know if it was the scent of Sakurajima Mai, the scent of shampoo, or both?

In short, it is a charming scent that can easily make high school boys have wild thoughts. It has a warm and moist feel, just like the white magnolia flowers that quietly bloom after the rain, elegant and fresh.

Of course, he didn't dare say this to Sakurajima Mai, otherwise this shameless girl would get so angry that she would bite his neck.

Finally, Sakurajima Mai reluctantly lifted up the laundry basket, which contained socks and a few pieces of cloth that were deliberately crumpled into a ball so that no specific shape could be seen.

"Don't pick it up with your hands," she warned.

"Don't worry, it won't get hit." Lin Hezhen made a magic gesture, and a water ball appeared out of thin air, wrapped the clothes, and rolled like a washing machine.

Soon, the clothes were washed, then dehydrated and dried. The whole process only took a few minutes.

"It's so convenient." Sakurajima Mai exclaimed.

Lin Hezhen bowed like a gentleman and said jokingly, "Thank you for using Lin's drum washing machine. I look forward to serving you next time."

"There won't be a next time." Sakurajima Mai refused decisively.

After helping Mai dry her hair, Lin Hezhen went into the bathroom and used magic to clean himself from head to toe.

The reason why I chose to use magic instead of taking a bath was, firstly, because it was convenient, and secondly, because I was worried that Mai Sakurajima would discover my little secret of pulling the curtain in the bathroom.

After finishing their bedtime preparations, the two prepared to go to bed.

Lin Hezhen climbed into the bed quickly, patted the pillow beside him, and said to the hesitant Sakurajima Mai: "Go to sleep quickly, we will go back early tomorrow morning, call Kato Megumi and go deal with the Unsmiling Cat together."

Mai's eyes fell on the double bed, and after thinking for a moment, she asked, "Can you swear not to do anything?"

"I swear." Like all men who swear in bed, Lin Hezhen made the promise without thinking.

"You're lying." Fortunately, Mai Sakurajima wasn't stupid enough to believe the man's oath. "But, I was also wrong for being so stupid as to be taken into the hotel."

“Please don’t act like I tricked you into coming here. Besides, it was you, Mai, who decided to get a king-size room.”

"Well, that's because I had no choice." She said shyly, "I know, it's my own decision, so I'm mentally prepared."

Mai Sakurajima climbed onto the bed in despair and lay down on the other side.

Lin Hezhen turned off all the lights in the room, and darkness enveloped everything.

The two of them lay quietly on the bed. They felt uncomfortable with the sudden presence of another person around them. They were not sleepy for the moment and could only look at each other with their eyes open.

The two were so close that even in the dark, Lin Hezhen could count her long eyelashes.

Just as Lin Kazuma turned around and was about to go to sleep, Sakurajima Mai's voice suddenly rang out in the dark room: "Hey, Kazuma."

"What's wrong?" Lin Kazuma turned his head and met Sakurajima Mai's eyes.

"What would you do if I were to start shaking and saying 'I don't want to disappear' and start crying?"

"I'll probably touch your head and say, 'Don't worry, I'll take care of everything.'"

"Tsk tsk, what? This is the same way of comforting a child."

"To me, Mai is just a child."

"Obviously, I am older."

"I mean psychologically."

"Strong words."

Sakurajima Mai turned around, with her back to Lin Hezhen. Her long black hair fell down softly, and her fair neck could be seen through the gaps in her hair.

"Will I really not disappear?" Her voice trembled a little, "Even my mother has forgotten me."

"You've already decided to return to showbiz, so you can't disappear now."

"I want to continue acting in radio dramas and movies, and I want to act on stage. I want to perform good works with directors and actors who I think are great, and feel the feeling of 'Ah, it's great to be alive.'"

"I finally met a boy who can cast magical spells, and now I have some hope of going to school. I really don't want to disappear..." Her voice was as soft as a whisper.

Lin Hezhen said firmly: "Don't worry, everything will return to normal, I won't let you disappear."

"Thank you...thank you for not giving up on me..."

The cold little hand groped its way into Lin Hezhen's hand, its fingers slender and fragile, like a fragile work of art.

Lin Hezhen held the hand tightly, inserted his fingers into the gap, and interlocked his fingers without leaving a single gap, as if he wanted to pass the warmth and will through this hand to the person beside him.

After that, the two had no more conversation.

The only sounds in the room were the vibration of the air conditioner and the hum of the exhaust fan in the bathroom. There were no vehicles driving outside, and no sounds could be heard from next door.

His consciousness slipped into the abyss of sweet sleep. In a daze, a rustling sound like the friction of cloth was heard. It seemed so abrupt in the silent room that it immediately made Lin Hezhen alert.

The many life-and-death battles he had experienced in the world of immortal cultivation had enabled him to wake up quickly at the slightest sign of trouble. He did not open his eyes and continued to pretend to be asleep.

The slightly cool hair fell on Lin Hezhen's face, and the girl's hot breath was getting closer and closer. The air she exhaled sprayed on Lin Hezhen's face, making him feel a little itchy.

Mai Sakurajima's voice, as faint as a mosquito, rang in her ears: "Kazuma, thank you, and I like you."

The girl's soft thin lips kissed Lin Hezhen's mouth, like a dragonfly touching the water, separating in an instant, with the gentleness of the sea breeze and the wetness of the spring rain, like a beautiful dream.

Chapter 50 Mutation

Early in the morning, before dawn, Lin Hezhen got up to do morning exercises.

He was worried that Sakurajima Mai wouldn't be able to find him when she woke up, so he didn't go to have breakfast alone.

Thinking that he had already told her his identity as an immortal cultivator, he might as well start a boxing match in this hotel room.

After finishing her morning exercise, Mai Sakurajima was still sleeping soundly.

The drizzle outside the window has stopped, the sky is slightly brighter, and a ray of sunlight slips in through the gap in the curtains and falls on Sakurajima Mai's face.

Her face looked like an 80% cooked hot spring egg, so white and tender that it could almost reflect light, making people want to bend down and carefully taste the flavor of the hot spring egg.

Her lips looked soft and light, with a rosy color, like freshly picked cherries with spring dew.

Lin Hezhen's heart was moved. He recalled her confession and the taste of her lips last night. He felt complicated for a moment and didn't know how to face this girl who fell in love with him.

Under the sunlight, Sakurajima Mai slowly woke up. She quietly opened her eyes and subconsciously reached out to her side, but found nothing.

She woke up instantly, sat up and looked around in panic, and finally saw the familiar figure sitting on the chair in front of the desk.

A pair of gentle yet firm eyes met hers.

"What are you doing there so early in the morning?" She complained deliberately, trying to hide her emotions.

“I am watching the drizzle in April, watching the sun rise as usual, watching the skylarks taking shelter under the eaves, watching the ants building their nests, watching the mountains, watching the sea, watching the clouds, watching the fog, and watching you sleeping soundly.”

Mai Sakurajima's face suddenly turned red. She pulled the quilt to cover the lower half of her face, leaving only a pair of big, bright black eyes rolling around.

"You didn't do anything to me while I was asleep?"

"What do you mean?"

"It's just..." She turned her head away, suppressing her embarrassment and uttering word by word through her teeth, "For example, kissing me secretly, or something like that..."

It was obviously you who made the night attack and stole a kiss, Lin Hezhen complained in his heart, but he did not expose this shameless girl.

"No, I just thought carefully about whether I should draw a turtle on your face."
