Chapter 123 – Two Cats, One Courtyard – Part 3
Both girls had a small talk after that . Hua Shi prepared a room for Dong Bai in Tong's residence and sent a messenger to Sima Manor that Dong Bai would stay in Tong's residence from now on .
Tong came back home before the sunset .
Then he met the little girl .
"Welcome home, darling . "
Dong Bai greeted Tong with a bright smile, yet her killing intent locked onto him . She looked at him while she was hesitating if she should delete his [Plot Armor] skill or not .
In the back of her mind, she planned to allow Tong to be summoned back . Once he got back, he would forget everything . Then, she could slowly feed him information . She could tell him that she was his only girlfriend so that he would be hers alone .
But her conscience was battling with her desire . She also wanted him to remember her, and she was afraid that his personality might change because of the memory wipe .
Tong tilted his head to the side in confusion and thought .
'Who is this little girl?'
He glanced at Hua Shi at the back who held her palms together in a prayer position to gesture an apology and praying for him .
Tong knelt down on one knee to talk to Dong Bai in the same eye level .
"Umm . Missy, who…"
"I'm your goddamn woman, you idiot piece of #$%%! I looked away from you for one and a half decade, you already put a baby in that girl's womb! If I wait for you for another 100 years, won't you impregnate every girl in the city?"
"Eh? You are . . . who?"
Veins popped up under Dong Bai's facial skins . She controlled her breathing and put her palm on Tong's forehead .
"Administrator command, target [Plot Armor], delete it!"

[Eh? What the hack?]
[Why didn't you do what I told you to!?]
[Fine, you have failed my mission . I'll erase all your demonic power in your soul!]
[Oh, I have just noticed . You don't have anything left in you, so I'll erase your [Seal] too . ]
[You are free now . Have fun, "little human" . ]

Dong Bai felt her mind lightened, but she also felt that she had just lost something precious to her . The sense of her loss overwhelmed Dong Bai . She cried .
'Now I have nothing left . I'm now a powerless human . '
Meanwhile, Tong received odd notification messages .

"What in the world!?"
Tong shouted in a panic . His lifeline skill changed into a weaker skill without him knowing anything . Then he swept his glance toward the crying little girl .
"Little miss, what did you do?"
Dong Bai did not stop crying . She stepped forward and hugged Tong without saying anything, which made Tong baffled by her actions .
Hua Shi, who had been observing them from the beginning, walked toward Tong to give him an explanation .
"This is Dong Bai . She's the granddaughter of Dong Zhuo… and the reincarnation of your ex-girlfriend . "
"What!?"
"You didn't hear me wrong . She's Friday . "
The grip of Dong Bai tightened . She buried her face into Tong's chest and wailed .
She missed Tong .
She lost her status as a demoness .
She lost all her hard-earned power .
She was now a powerless little girl in the ancient world .
She hugged Tong while she was trembling in despair . She feared that if Tong was not here, she would have nothing to cling on, and her heart would have been destroyed .
Tong could sense the sadness and the desperation of Dong Bai . He hugged her and pressed her body to him . Then he whispered .
"I'm here . "
"It's ok now . "
"Everything is going to be alright . "
"We'll be together . "
Dong Bai's body shook, yet her tears did not stop . She cried even harder than before, but it was not from sadness . She was so happy to hear his voice again .
"Take her to your room . You guys probably have a lot to catch up on . "
"Huh? Sunday, what about you? The sun has set . Where are you going to sleep?"
"I'll sleep in my former room tonight . Go ahead and take her away . You'll attract more rumors if you let her cry here . "
"OK . Sorry for today . "
"Go, go . Shoo!"
"Hahaha!"
Tong princess-carried Dong Bai and took her to his room, so they could talk in private .
Hua Shi looked at the back of Tong . A drop of tear rolled down from her eye . She bit her lips in bitterness and jealousy .
"Please, don't forget me . "
"And don't forget this child . "
"We'll be here if you need us . "
"So don't abandon us . "
Both her hands covered her face, Hua Shi stood and wept alone .
…
…
Next morning, Hua Shi woke up in her room with sullen eyes . She cried all night, even in her dreams .
She did not take a bath last night and forgot to clean the cosmetic on her face, so she went out to take a hot bath .
Then she met Dong Bai there .
Dong Bai also had sullen eyes like hers . She seemed to have cried all night as well .
Both of them paused to stare at each other for a few seconds . Then they laughed .
"WTF is wrong with your face, brat? Have you decide to quit being a human and join the pandas?"
"Hahaha! Bitch, you're the panda! Heck, you're a panda with the messed up mascara and your eyeliner . Did you buy a cheap one from the market?"
Unlike yesterday, they jeered and mocked each other in a friendlier manner . The all-nighter weeping released all of their accumulating negative thoughts . They felt better now .
They took a bath together while they gossiped and bragged about their bed experiences with Tong .
"If you try the XXX position, he'll OOO in less than a minute!"
"What? How? I did try the XXX and ZZZ, but his OOOO lasted for half an hour . "
"Did you allow him to squeeze your #### while he @@@? I'm sure he loves XXXXX"
"Hahaha! Oh yeah! He actually drooled when we OOO XXX in the ##### and ZZZZ . "
They were so into the gossip to the point that they were in the bath for almost two hours . Both of them had to get out after they realized that their fingers and skins wrinkled .
"Haiz, I can't mate with him with this body . "
"Me too, I want his seeds but he didn't allow me to drink it . "
They continued to chat even after the bath . The content of the conversation focused on the lewd parts which made the passing by maids bowed their head in embarrassment .
Zou Shi came back to visit the two and to see if they continued fighting . However, after she heard their conversations, she fled back to Sima Manor with a red face .
"Say, since we can't XXX with him, how about we punish him a bit . " Dong Bai brought up her desire .
"Ah, I've been thinking about it as well . Right, did you know that he can regenerate his lost body parts?"
"Ho? He has that kind of skill?"
"Yup, we can share our status menu, so I knew about it . "
Dong Bai's eyes lit up . Hua Shi taught her about the Soulmate Contract and the Soulmate Missions which gave back Dong Bai's hope . Both of them conspired among themselves from morning till night .
…
Last night, Tong embraced the crying girl until she fell asleep . He did not get a good sleep all night as he felt guilty for cheating on her . He wanted to apologize but no word had come out .
There were many questions in his mind, including the sudden deletion of his [Plot Armor] skill and the birth of his [Fledging Demonic Body] skill .
In the end, he left his room in the early morning to get some fresh air and exercises . Then he went to work with a tired expression .
As planned, he coaxed his father, Zhang Jiao, to drink a tea mixed with his blood . Then Tong made him joined his Clan by the annual quota Clan Contract .
The moment the clan menu and a chat box appeared in front of Zhang Jiao, he smiled and sighed . After seeing so many miracles by Tong all these years, he was not surprised anymore .
. . .
'I need two more members . I wonder if Friday can be part of the clan . '
'There's also a matter about my skill . She hasn't told me why she deleted it . '
'I wonder if she gets better yet . '
'Aw crap, I forgot about Sunday . Is she still ok after Friday arrived?'
Tong took a deep breath . Being two-timer was a sin, and he was suffering the consequence .
Tong returned to his residence area after the dinner, only to find Hua Shi and Dong Bai in his room .
"What are you two doing here together? Are you alright now?"
Both ladies smiled at Tong, but he detected a faint murderous aura from them . Something was amiss .
"We're fine!"
"We're ok! Actually, we consider each other as sisters now!"
"Yup, yup!"
Tong had an awkward smile on his face . A harem with more than two girls living together in harmony only existed in novels and fictions . Something was wrong with these two .
"Umm, I know it's late . But I want to say, I'm sorry to both of you…"
Tong clumsily apologized to the two which did not seem to listen to his words .
"It's alright, my dear . I forgive you . " Spoke Dong Bai .
"Yes, we don't mind it . As a matter of facts, we have come to an agreement . "
"BUT" Both girls spoke at the same time .
Hua Shi took out a short sword while Dong Bai took out sharp scissors .
Tong saw a bad premonition coming up . The memories about Friday and the sinners in Hell flashbacked from the back of his head . He understood what they were trying to do .
"For the sake of not adding another member, we should teach you a lesson why you shouldn't be kind to every woman . "
"Yes, my dear husband . Please be obedient and take off your pants . We'll inspect your body, so you won't be contaminated by any unknown bitch in the future . "
…
…
That night, there were mysterious cries from Tong's residential areas . It was said to be the sound of a man crying in agony over and over again all night .
After that day, many people and the officials tried to investigate the origin of the voices, but none found a lead .
A new gossip emerged that Tong residence areas were haunted by a mysterious male ghost which made many maids quit the job later .
