??Wu Long lay in bed with Bi Rui at his side, her toned, yet at the same time delicate, with all the right curves body pressing against him, as her breathing was slowly calming down.
"Haa~ haa~... oh... righ... haa~ did she...?", Bi Rui widened her eyes as if remembering something and raised her head to look at the door.
"Haha, yep she was there", Wu Long chuckled and the beauty in his arms blushed, adding "I must say, you really are a great and doting friend"
Bi Rui was incredibly shy for the first few minutes of their cultivation, much like she was now, and only after some time in bed he made her forget everything else around except for him and her.
He noticed this trait in her after she became his woman more distinctly, as gradually she was ready to give her all to help not only Yu Huan, but more and more members of the Dao Family the closer she got to them.
She was ready to go to great lengths for others, the only requirements for that was getting her trust, reaching a point to be considered 'one of her own'.
"Haha, I wouldn't call myself great", she made a slightly shy look, turning her gaze away as he chuckled.
"What would you call yourself then?", he raised his eyebrow with amusement.
"...normal?", she was not expecting his question, so it took her a bit to come up with an answer.
"Hahaha, maybe for you it is normal", he started laughing as she made a surprised expression, looking at him with a question in her eyes, that he seemingly did not intend to answer.
"What?", she asked as she saw him delightedly laughing, slightly raising her upper body to look him in the eyes, "What is it?"
"Hahaha", his laughter somehow felt ticklish and warm to her, making her feel happiness.
"What is it?", she started smiling as she asked again, this time nudging him with a little push, and after a few more attempts at getting an answer with playful nudging and pushing while he dodged, they tumbled on the bed, and she widened her eyes when his face hovered over hers when they stopped.
"I love you...", her words slipped in a whisper, so natural and light, with a slight change in her eyes as if she herself was surprised.
"I love you", he replied with a happy smile and leaned in for a kiss.

Yu Huan was restlessly moving from corner to corner of her room, sitting down only to stand up with a brisk motion a moment later, and pacing the floor of the room in circles over and over again.
"I must have been out of my mind!", she spoke as she froze on the spot, turning to the side at a mirror which reflected a slightly rosy face.
'I shouldn't have looked...', she then thought, and the moment she did the images she tried to keep away floated in front of her eyes, dyeing her face red again.
"Uuuu~", she squatted on the spot, covering her face with both hands, as all sounds from the outside shut off, the sounds that she heard replaying in her ears over and over.
"What am I going to do?", she then exclaimed, to which a voice full of laughter replied...
"What you should have done in the first place"
Yu Huan's figure trembled and froze, and then she slightly slid her hands down from her face as she looked up at Bi Rui standing in the doors with crossed arms and leaning her back on one of the open doors.
"..."
"Before you say anything, I did knock, same old rule, three separate triple-knocks and I come in"
"That's a rule for the house in the Imperial capital!", Yu Huan made a protest to which the bobcut-haired beauty only chuckled.
"Heh, we never agreed to abolish those. Did you forget why we made them in the first place? It's so you wouldn't pass out and then lay in the middle of your alchemy room without anyone knowing", Bi Rui shrugged her shoulders, adding "Did you think that would become unnecessary just because the place changed?"
"You cheated! You must have not waited between the knocks!", the alchemist protested as Bi Rui started laughing, leisurely lowering her hand and making three triple-knocks on the door with a very brief pause in between them.
"Three triple-knocks, everything's fair", she commented.
"You missed our promise to have tea together today!", Yu Huan then made another accusation to which Bi Rui only wryly smiled.
"That I will not argue with, sorry for that, but as you probably know something important came up", the bobcut-haired beauty sincerely admitted, and then as her smile widened continued with "So, have you made enough time to think out the response to what I said first?"
"...", Yu Huan's eyes revealed a cornered look, and then she sighed, standing up with a slightly dejected and guilty appearance, and hanging her head opened her mouth to quietly say "I'm sorry"
"Hahaha, don't be sorry, Huan'er. I left that gap open on purpose", Bi Rui chuckled, and the alchemist raised her widening eyes.
"On... on purpose?", Yu Huan's voice was bewildered and in disbelief, but there was a very small tinge of relief in it as well.
"Hahaha, come here, let's sit down and talk", Bi Rui shook her head with a chuckle and led the alchemist to sit down on a sofa.
Bi Rui sat half-turned to her friend, with crossed legs, resting one of her forearms on top of the backrest and supporting her head with the fingers of her hand, while Yu Huan sat up straight with both hands on her thighs held closely together as were her lower legs and feet.
"So... you knew I would come looking for you after you missed the promise...", Yu Huan finally started to connect the dots.
"Mm, I was a bit shy to show you, but then again you will eventually see it... and it is not like I am ashamed of doing it with Wu Long, plus I wanted to see if it makes you feel anything", Bi Rui nodded.
"I-It did... I just don't know what to do now", Yu Huan's face became red as she turned down.
"I'm sorry if I'm being a busybody, but I grow frustrated seeing you stumble on one spot every time", Bi Rui said with a sincere look, "You have confessed your feelings, which is great, but then as if now the urgency have decreased, you became passive again"
"But... I just... I'm nervous", Yu Huan's face revealed a look of worry as she raised her head again.
"Nervous? What is there to be nervous about?"
"That I... that I won't be able to... you know... do good. I mean... I heard women in the Alchemy Tower say that if you're not good in bed men can grow disappointed with you... some can't even 'get it up' whatever that means, and also-..."
"...", Bi Rui's eyes, round as plates, looked at the alchemist who continued speaking, the bobcut-haired beauty's face becoming frozen for a few moments, before her lips and shoulders started slightly trembling, until "...hehehe.... haha.... ehahahaha! A~hahahahaha!"
The uncontrollable laughter of her friend caused Yu Huan to stop talking and widen her eyes as she looked with a slight confusion while Bi Rui started wiping away tears that came out with laughter.
"Wahahahaha! ... d-do good! Hahahaha! ... c-can't ahaha can't g-gt it u-? Wahahahaha! ... Whew~w", Bi Rui couldn't stop laughing and only after a while made a long exhale, hints of laughter still in her eyes as she turned back to the alchemist.
"Huan'er, you adorable innocent creature. You were worried about that all this time? Did you forget the talk about who Wu Long is?
None of us, except maybe Sister Ziyan and Sister Lian Zhiqiu, can hold a candle to his skills in bed, and even they are in a completely different league, only slightly better than us in front of him.
But none of that matters to Wu Long.
His skill is at the level where he can guide you to move like the most skilled seductress, without even realizing it.
And while he welcomes effort to raise our skills in that regard, as we all go to Sister Ziyan for advice on that, he never required it.
Besides, that thought alone of wanting to kehehe, 'do good', is already enough.
And don't compare him to other men, he never has a problem with hehe... hahaha... 'getting it up'. In fact he has you to thank for that"
Bi Rui's explanation made Yu Huan speechless, as she slowly started realizing that she was trapped in the maze she made for herself, with a problem that never existed in the first place.
She gulped, and the look in her eyes made a glint to appear in Bi Rui's eyes.
"So... what did you feel? I want a~ll the juicy details...", the bobcut-haired beauty then sat a bit closer to her friend with a mischievous smile, as the latter reddened, turning her gaze down, starting to share her thoughts and feelings from that time as the two giggled and talked for a long time after.
