The ceremony had started at eleven in the morning and it lasted the entire day. It wasn't until dinner time that Dubian Che found some time to rest.
"The night is still young," Jiutiao Meijie said from within the bedroom.
"We have to kneel again?" Dubian Che asked in surprise. "I've never knelt for so long in my life!"
"You might as well get used to it; in your next life, you'll be kneeling even longer," Jiutiao Meijie, leaning on the armrest, appeared equally exhausted.
"I'll give you a massage," Dubian Che offered immediately, ready to cash in this month's 'massage' skill as soon as Jiutiao Meijie nodded.
Due to previous "massage" misunderstandings, a clearly mistaken Jiutiao Meijie simply waved her hand: "Don't bother me, go out for a stroll. I'm going to sleep for a while."
"I'm serious."
Jiutiao Meijie didn't respond and closed her eyes to sleep, leaving Dubian Che no choice but to leave.
