Chapter 39: I have a job to do
The room turned cold, "Hehe! Am I not welcome?" the voice sounded enchanting, hypnotizing even.
She snorted, "What are you doing here?" Gao Lan Mei was very familiar with this visitor. He was the main reason Feng Ji loved to have fun sneakily like this scheming fellow. "You're supposed to be playing with the Dakinis instead of bothering me. How does it feel to be surrounded by naked women all the time?"
Initially, she could not exactly determine if there was someone else in the room or something to be exact, but due to the rotten smell of death that she was very familiar with, she could confirm that she was not alone.
"Have not arrived yet, personally. Please, do not mention the Dakinis again when related to me. Someone might hear and that would ruin my image." Dakinis were creatures of love and sexuality, in all forms.
Adding, "In fact, they do wear clothes now, some of them do. I should have stayed longer there but, you know, I have a job to do." he retorted.
She could imagine him waving his hand while saying this. Then he continued, "It does not matter if I left earlier anyway. The high is not enough anymore..."'to forget'
He did not voice out the last two words, but Gao Lan Mei understood clearly what Yen Mìngjue was supposed to say.
Dakinis had cannabis herb in their domain that helped one feel better, even gods. They were also very beautiful and enchanting creatures that would make any man's dream of a harem came true. That is if the man was favored by these enchanted beings of beauty, else it would be a nightmare.
She did not approve but it's better than having the son of the death god rampaging wherever he went.
What did she know about the feeling of lost love? She would not understand it, so, she also did not have the right to stop him.
From her previous life, the longest friend that she could consider outside her prison was this scheming and deceitful fellow.
He was also the reason why she became interested in healing. Gao Lan Mei still felt bad that she was not able to help him when he needed her the most.
The room turned colder because of his sour mood. Crossing her arms over her chest to feel warmer, she did not say anything, but just allowed Yen Mìngjué to stay silent, waiting for him to remember that she was in the room.
Since he was not here personally, then that means he sent his pawn instead. She tried to sense where it was in the room.
Her room candles were lit brightly, the servants had left her alone just like she wanted.
Gao Lan Mei shoes were removed for her to be able to walk on the laid carpet silently. She also grabbed a wooden umbrella and started looking around the room to find the pawn that he was using as his vessel to be on the Mortal Domain while his real body was somewhere, who knows where.
Checking the chair that was against the wall, where the pillow stuffed with feathers was, but no pawn.
Behind the blue curtains that were hung from the ceiling to the floor. On the bed, wrapped with large silk sheets which were stretched over the wooden bed. The thing she was looking for was also not there.
Then on the foot of the screen panel, Gao Lan Mei found a small black snake that was comfortably rolled around it.
Whack!
Whack!
"Hey!" the voice exclaimed after she hit the snake with the wooden umbrella more than once.
