Succubus Star Sister, but the original god

"Well, you know, if the temperature is high in the summer, it will be difficult for us to work, so some ice cubes were stored in the Wangsheng Hall." Hu Tao nodded and explained.

Walnut didn't say it explicitly, but Xing could guess that the ice was probably used to prevent the corpse from rotting.

"But, what about the ice-attributed God's Eye?" Xing asked curiously.

She doesn't quite understand this aspect.

"Of course it's possible, but after all, people who possess the Divine Eye are only one in a million, not to mention that we have to specifically find someone with a Divine Eye of ice attribute." Walnut spread her hands.

Therefore, it is more practical to store some ice cubes. This room has been specially modified for this purpose so that it can store some ice cubes for a longer period of time.

It’s a pity that the Hall of Rebirth is located in Liyue Harbor, so it is impossible to dig a cellar, so we can only find a relatively cold room.

Although the average temperature in the health hall is lower than outside, the ice on the ground will eventually melt a little.

So the whole house here is designed to be waterproof.

Later, there was a more suitable place to store ice in Wangsheng Hall, so this place was gradually no longer used. When Hu Tao occasionally didn't want to go to the bathhouse, she would use this place as a bathroom.

"I see." Xing nodded, and then she no longer cared about what was happening in this room. She first went to the big bathtub placed in the room.

It is indeed very big, and Xing even needs to step on a small ladder next to it to get in.

She first stretched out her toes to test the water temperature, and after confirming that it was about right, she directly untied the bath towel from her body.

Hu Tao blushed as she watched Xing's actions in front of her, standing there in a daze. It was not until Xing had entered the bathtub and some water overflowed and flowed to Hu Tao's feet that she finally came to her senses.

"Hutao, the water temperature is just right, come in quickly." Xing waved to Hutao who was still standing there.

It was clearly Hu Tao who suggested taking a shower together, but with her current behavior, what should we do?

Xingdu is looking forward to it.

"Ah!? I, I get it. I'll be right there!" Walnut said quickly.

-------------------------------------------------- -----------------------------------

"Hutao, your feet are so beautiful." Xing suddenly said something that made Hutao blush when she came down.

"Yes, is there?" Kurumi couldn't help but curl up her toes that had already entered the water.

Sitting in the bathtub, Walnut didn't know how to take a bath for a moment.

She didn't dare to look up at Xing's body. Just a few simple glances just now made her lose consciousness for a long time, let alone observing him so closely now.

"Of course." Xing said with a smile.

"Well, thank you for the compliment." Hu Tao coughed lightly, looking a little unnatural.

Since she grew up, many people have praised Hu Tao for her appearance, saying that she has delicate features and a well-proportioned figure.

But no one would praise someone else's beautiful feet, and Hu Tao was really a little uncomfortable with it.

She even felt a little ashamed, which was rare.

After all, Xing is an outsider and may not be aware of the saying in Liyue that men don't touch heads and women don't touch feet.

In Liyue, feet are a girl’s private parts.

Although Xing is also a girl, there is nothing wrong with this aspect, but...

How to say it, Xing is a girl, but not an ordinary girl.

From the first time she met Xing, Hu Tao never treated Xing as an ordinary passerby in her heart.

She can still recall the impulse in her heart when she saw the other person for the first time.

Although Walnut still doesn't quite understand what that impulse and feeling are, there is no doubt that Walnut likes Xing very much.

Therefore, it is natural for Walnut to feel shy, even though Walnut is still unclear about the exact meaning of her love for Xing.

"Ah?!" Hu Tao suddenly couldn't help but scream.

Just as I was thinking about it, I suddenly felt a strange touch on my toes.

Kurumi quickly shrank back, but no matter how big the bathtub was, there was only so much space, and she was soon caught up by Xing again.

"Hu Tao mentioned before that we should sleep with our feet touching each other. Is this how we should sleep?" Xing hugged her knees and asked Hu Tao curiously.

Her toes were touching Kurumi's toes.

It feels very good to touch.

"Well, that's just an idiom!" Hu Tao had no way of avoiding it, and could only explain to Xing with shame.

"It's to describe the good relationship between us, not to say that we have to sleep like this..."

"Ah~ I see." Xing nodded in understanding.

It must not be as simple as the literal meaning. She already knew it and she just pretended to ask to tease Walnut.

Moreover, although she said she understood, her feet did not stop moving.

Her toes curled up slightly and rubbed them against Kurumi's toes, experiencing a touch that she had never felt before.

"Xing..." Kurumi's cheeks were burning, but she didn't know what to say for a moment.

Xing raised her head and looked at Hu Tao, whose eyes seemed a little dazed, and a smile appeared on her face.

"Hu Walnut, let me help you wash it."

Chapter 20: Why did the Hall Master and Miss Xing take so long to wash...

"I don't know if the hall master has finished his bath. Such a long time has passed." A ceremonial officer yawned slightly and seemed a little sleepy.

"Don't you think the hall master usually takes a quick shower? Why does he take so long this time?" Upon hearing this, the other ceremonial officer withdrew his attention from the book.

After the two of them helped Hu Tao prepare the hot water, they waited here. After Hu Tao and Xing finished bathing, they would drain the water, put the bathtub back, and then give the bathroom a simple clean.

Normally, this job wouldn't keep them waiting too long, because Walnut was not too slow in taking a shower.

Even if there is one more person taking a shower now, it should be ready within an hour at the latest.

But now almost two hours have passed, and the water may have cooled down, but Hu Tao still has no intention of coming out.

Of course, as the owner of the Eye of the Fire Element God, Hu Tao does not have to worry about the water cooling down.

"Could it be that the hall master was so happy chatting with her friend that she forgot the time?" the ceremonial officer asked with some confusion.

They didn't see Master Hu's friend, but since they were all dragged by Hu Tao to take a bath together, they must have a good relationship.

Given the hall master's personality, it is possible that he has forgotten the time.

"Maybe it's true... Then I'd better go and take a look." The other person stood up, opened the door and walked towards the bathroom.

When she reached the door, she reached out and knocked on it: "Master? Are you done washing?"

There was no response in the room for a while, which made her feel something was wrong.

I couldn't hear any sound inside, but I could smell a nice floral scent.

I don’t know if the fragrance comes from the soapberries they use for bathing.

"Master?" There was no response, so the ceremonial officer couldn't help but knock on the door again.

“Hmm!? I, I, will be ready soon… um!”

Finally, Kurumi's voice was heard from inside the room.

But the sound was a little strange and intermittent.

But after all, there was a door between them and there was some distance, so the ceremonial officer couldn't hear it clearly and didn't pay much attention to it.

"You, um, you guys... go to bed first. I can clean up by myself later." Hu Tao's voice seemed to be suppressing something.

Even though he couldn't hear clearly now, the ceremonial officer could still feel that something was strange.

However, the ceremonial officer was not very old, and he did not think anything else about Hu Tao's strange voice.

"Master, are you okay? And that Miss Xing..."

"It's okay, it's okay. Hu Tao is just using elemental power to heat the water. She's just a little tired." A strange voice came from inside the door again.

It should be Miss Xing.

Her voice was much more normal, except that the tone was slightly raised, with a hint of barely perceptible excitement.

"I see. Then let's go and rest first, ok, Hall Master?"

In fact, the duties of the ceremonial officers do not include taking care of Hu Tao's daily life. They just volunteer to help the hall master do some small things within their ability.

After all, Hu Tao is the head of the Wangsheng Hall. Although he seems a little out of touch at ordinary times, he is still very good to the ceremonial officials like them.

So since Hu Tao asked them to rest first, she didn't insist.

"Ha... go, go ahead."

The ceremonial officer nodded, then turned and left.

Shortly after she left, in the bathroom.

Kurumi finally relaxed.

In fact, what happened is self-evident.

"You scared me..." Hu Tao said in a low voice, panting slightly.

Her head rested on Xing's chest, and she was held in Xing's arms.

"I didn't expect Hu Tao to be so persistent." Xing licked Hu Tao's red earlobe, while his little hands were not very still.

She hugged Kurumi's body from behind, but one arm was facing upwards and the other was facing downwards.

They were all performing different actions at the same time. The clear water that was originally used for bathing now became a little turbid, and even exuded a certain floral scent.

"Um... Xing, no, don't do this."

"What?" Xing said with some malicious intentions.

"It's been a long time, it's time to go out." Hu Tao didn't have any strength left now, and couldn't get out of Xing's control at all, "Let's go to bed..."

"Well... okay." Xing buried his head in Kurumi's neck and took a deep breath.

"Then go to bed. The night is still long."

-------------------------------------------------- -----------------------

The next morning, the sun was shining brightly.

A strange thing happened in the Wangsheng Hall today. The hall master, who was always lively and energetic, actually slept until noon.

"The hall master and his good friend slept side by side. Perhaps they talked for too long yesterday."

That’s what the staff at Wangsheng Hall said.

Anyway, there is not much work to do in Wangsheng Hall on weekdays, and Hu Tao spends most of his time outside promoting Wangsheng Hall.

So if Hu Tao occasionally stays in bed, no one will say anything.

Of course, as the head of the Wangsheng Hall, no one dared to say anything about it.

It’s not that Hu Tao has a bad personality. After all, she is the boss. Except for Zhongli Keqing, who is a special person, everyone is more or less afraid of her.

"Miss, may I ask who you are..." A waiter from the Hall of Rebirth stopped the blonde girl who was about to knock on the door.

Generally speaking, people who come to the Wangsheng Hall to handle business will not knock on the door so directly.

And looking at the appearance of this blonde girl and the little white fairy floating around her, it doesn't seem like they are here to conduct business.

"We are here to find Walnut." Paimon said first.

"Looking for the hall master?"

"Yeah, and Xing, he should have stayed in the Wangsheng Hall with your hall master last night, right?" Ying nodded, then asked with some anticipation.

"I see. Sorry, miss, the hall master is still taking a nap..." the waiter from the Wangsheng Hall nodded.

It is not entirely correct to say that he has not woken up from his nap. Hu Tao has been sleeping since last night and has not woken up yet.

I only said this to maintain the face of my own hall master.

"Still still in his nap!" Ying's eyes lit up immediately, "What about Xing?"

"Um, well, it's the same..." the guy said slowly.
