After driving for more than forty minutes, Xiao Tian and Crystal finally arrived at Zihu Inn.

'Oh! So it's a traditional inn, huh?'

Xiao Tian was startled when he saw the inn.

He thought it was a modern inn, but he was wrong. Zihu inn was big, and the building was made of wood.

After getting out of the car, Xiao Tian and Crystal instantly entered the inn. The expression of deep shock blossomed on the faces of Xiao Tian and Crystal the moment they entered Zihu inn.

The person who they thought would follow them in secret was sitting on the couch in front of the reception area. She was sipping her tea calmly as if she was the owner of the inn.

Crystal walked towards Yu Shi and inquired, "Master, what are you doing here?"

After putting the tea on the table, Yu Shi looked at Crystal and responded, "Oh! You have arrived?"

"I thought you would follow us in secret later." Crystal inquired.

"Why should I do that?" at first, Yu Shi wanted to follow them in secret, but she changed her mind.

If she followed them in secret, she would not be able to carry out her plan or tell her disciple what she had to do later.

At this moment, Xiao Tian only sat on the opposite side of Yu Shi without saying anything. He was curious about Yu Shi's plan because everything was not like what he thought it would be.

Yu Shi then shifted her gaze from Crystal to Xiao Tian. "Xiao Tian, I want a grandson so that he can protect Crystal later."

Her words much surprised Xiao Tian, but he did not show it on his face.

'Holy hell! This old woman is crazy! I haven't even impregnated my woman, and she already wants me to impregnate Crystal? What kind of nonsense is this?'

Like before, Xiao Tian didn't say anything and behaved as if he heard nothing.

Like Xiao Tian, Crystal was also startled by Yu Shi's words. "Master, what are you saying?"

"Why? I only want a grandson. Is that wrong?" Yu Shi behaved as if Xiao Tian and Crystal were a married couple.

"It's not wrong, but Xiao Tian and I are only lovers, not a married couple." Crystal still found it hard to believe what she was hearing.

'Master is getting crazier nowadays.'

She added in her head.

First, Yu Shi wanted her to be Xiao Tian's wife, and now, Yu Shi wanted a grandson. Lately, she really didn't get Yu Shi's train of thought.

At this moment, an old woman about sixty years old walked towards them with a smile on her face. "It seems like all of you are having fun."

Yu Shi shifted her gaze from Crystal to the old woman. "Oh, Aki! I thought you were busy today."

Xiao Tian turned his head to look at the old woman.

'Hmm? Japanese person?'

From her face, Xiao Tian was sure that the old woman who just spoke was a Japanese person.

"It has been a long time since the last time we met, Yu Shi." After saying that, Aki looked at Crystal. "You have grown into a beautiful woman now, Crystal."

Crystal was still a high school student the last time Aki saw Crystal.

"You are?" Crystal didn't remember who Aki was.

"She is Kitahara Aki. You have met her twice in the past." Yu Shi introduced her friend to Crystal. "She is the owner of this inn."

"Nice to meet you, elder Kitahara." Crystal said politely.

Kitahara Aki smiled softly before turning her head towards Xiao Tian. "Is he your boyfriend?"

"Hello, elder. I'm Xiao Tian, Crystal's boyfriend." Xiao Tian introduced himself as he smiled.

Kitahara Aki returned her attention to Crystal and spoke, "Your lover is so attractive and has a beautiful smile too. Now I know what made you fall in love with him."

"Yeah." Because Xiao Tian was her fake lover, Crystal could not deny it.

"Oh right, how about I guide you to your room now?" Kitahara Aki knew the reason why Crystal and Xiao Tian were at her inn because Yu Shi had told her yesterday.

"All right." Xiao Tian and Crystal answered in unison.

When Xiao Tian, Crystal, and Kitahara Aki were heading to the room, Yu Shi did not move from her place.

As he was going to his room, Xiao Tian swept his gaze around

'As I thought, this is a traditional Japanese inn.'

After learning who the owner of the inn was, Xiao Tian thought it was normal.

Kitahara Aki opened the sliding door and spoke, "This is your room."

The room was big with a short-legged wooden table in the middle of it. Two chairs were placed facing each other next to the table, but the chairs had no chair legs.

Except for the chairs and table in the middle of the room, there was nothing. When Xiao Tian swept his gaze around, he saw a sliding door in each side of the room.

The bedroom was on their right while the lounge was in front of them. On their left side, there was a sliding door that would lead them to the bathroom and outdoor hot spring.

Kitahara Aki then looked at Xiao Tian and Crystal. "I hope you like the room."

"Yes. I like it." Xiao Tian and Crystal answered in unison.

"Then I will take my leave now. Enjoy yourself." After saying that, Kitahara Aki left.

After putting her bag on the floor, Crystal headed towards the lounge.

*Zsssss….

Crystal opened the sliding door.

Her face broke into a smile when she stepped into the lounge. "Beautiful!"

The room was not big, but it was pretty long. From the lounge, Crystal could see many trees.

'It's so beautiful.'

Crystal was able to see the beautiful scenery outside because half of the walls were made of glass.

Like in the main room, there was a wooden table and two chairs in the lounge. But the difference was that it was an ordinary wooden table and chairs.

Xiao Tian then entered the lounge and sat on the chair. "The scenery here is beautiful."

"You are right," Crystal responded as she nodded her head.

-----

Under a big tree, two old women were sitting on the wooden bench. One of them was touching her chin with her right hand as if she was thinking about something important.

These two old women were none other than Yu Shi and Kitahara Aki.

"So, that's your plan, huh?" Kitahara Aki spoke abruptly.

"Yes." Yu Shi answered, "You know I have serious injuries, right? Some doctors even said I would not live long, so I wanted to ensure that Crystal would not be lonely if I died later. With this, not only would Crystal get a lover, but someone would also protect her. It's like killing two birds with one stone."

"Is there really no one who can heal your injuries?" Kitahara Aki inquired.

In the past, they often went out together, and Yu Shi's master was her parents' friend. It could be said that she was the only one who knew Yi Shi's true identity.

Yu Shi looked at the sky with a sad face. "If I could, I would like to live for a long time. I don't want to leave Crystal alone in this cruel world. That child had lost her parents when she was little. I really don't want her to be sad again."

At this moment, a voice suddenly rang out. "Master…."
