Chapter 525 Once a Week
Early in the morning before sunrise, Yu Rou and Xia Jingyi left their rooms after washing their face.
Yu Rou was already used to waking up this early in the morning as a Yuan's caretaker, so she wasn't bothered by it.
Xia Jingyi, however, had struggled to wake up. If it wasn't for Yu Rou, who pulled her blanket from her bed, she wouldn't have woken up.
"Thank you for waking me up, Sister Rou… It's only the first day of training and I am already troubling you…" Xia Jingyi sighed as they made their way to the cafeteria.
"Don't mention it."
A few minutes later, they arrived before a 4-story tall building that was the size of a mini-mall.
"T-This is the cafeteria…?" Xia Jingyi looked up at the building with a dazed look on her face.
Yu Rou looked at the map given to them last night and nodded, "This should be the right place."
"Look, there are plenty others coming to this place. We are definitely in the right place." Yu Rou added.
"This place is just a small city in the middle of the wilderness… I wonder how long did it take them to build this place…" Xia Jingyi wondered out loud.
"Probably not long based on what Grandma Yin told us about this place."
"Anyways, let's go inside and see what they have."
The two of them entered the building a few moments later, and to their surprise, there were food stores on every single floor with at least 6 unique stores and restaurants on each floor.
"I was just thinking to myself how life will be for us when the nearest city is 3 hours away. I guess this answers it." Yu Rou mumbled in a low voice.
With this many restaurants and variety of foods, they definitely won't get bored of the food here anytime soon.
"If the other places are anything like this, I wouldn't mind living here forever," Xia Jingyi said.
The two of them proceeded to spend a couple of minutes looking for a restaurant to eat at.
They finished eating in half an hour and used their remaining time to look around the place.
Once it was almost time for training, Yu Rou and Xia Jingyi went separate ways since they were of different ranks, meaning they trained differently.
Meanwhile, 8,000 miles away inside Yuan's apartment, Yuan just finished his daily routine and prepared to wash himself.
"Yuan, are you sure you don't need any help? How are you washing your back?" Meixiu asked him before he entered the bathroom.
"Uh… It's a little difficult, but I can manage," he said.
"You know you don't have to do everything yourself. I know you want to rely on yourself now that you can finally move, but you should rely on others as well. At this rate, I will have nothing else to do besides cooking and cleaning the apartment, but who knows when you'll take that away from me too." Meixiu said in a sighing voice.
Yuan stopped to ponder for a moment.
"I am still technically your caretaker, Yuan. Let me assist you like I was trained. You can do everything else yourself. After all, I don't want to feel like I'd trained for nothing..."
Hearing her words, Yuan said to her, "Sorry, I haven't taken your feelings into consideration. Can you please help me wash my back?"
"Of course." Meixiu quickly responded.
They entered the bathroom together a few moments later.
"Take a seat," Meixiu said to him.
Yuan nodded and sat on a small bathroom chair.
Meixiu then rinsed his body with water before rubbing his back with her soapy hands.
Once his back was covered in soap, Meixiu asked him, "Shall I wash the front too?"
"If you don't mind," he said.
"I don't," she responded and walked to the front before squatting down.
A moment later, she started rubbing her soft hands on his refined body.
Starting from the top then moving straight to his legs, Meixiu washed every inch of his body.
Once there was only a single area left, Meixiu cleared her throat and asked, "D-Do you want me to wash that part too?"
Meixiu expected Yuan to refuse, but to her surprise, Yuan repeated, "If you don't mind."
Meixiu took a deep breath and started washing his cute snake.
However, that cute snake quickly woke up and turned into a ferocious dragon.
Seeing this, Meixiu asked him, "H-Have you relieved this part recently?"
"To tell you the truth, I have tried to do it by myself, even mimicking your movements, but I can't get it to work. It just doesn't feel the same," he said in a sighing voice.
"I understand… Then allow me to do it for you. And don't you dare use divine sense while I am doing this..." Meixiu said in a bashful voice, and she began relieving him.
Yuan's body quickly started trembling with delight from Meixiu's skillful techniques, feeling a certain sensation that he couldn't replicate by himself for some reason.
A few minutes later, Yuan released his stress all over the floor.
"According to my research, a man should relieve himself at least daily, which comes with certain health benefits. If you want, I can help you every day." Meixiu said to him as she washed the sticky white stuff away with the showerhead.
"E-Every day…?" Yuan hesitated this time.
"If that's too much, we can do it once every other day— or even once a week," she said.
"Once a week sounds good enough."
"I understand. Then in addition to washing your body, I will help you relieve your stress once a week." Meixiu said.
"Okay, but you don't have to help wash my body every time I want to rinse my body after sweating from my exercise."
"Then I will help you whenever you take your last shower for the day."
"Okay," he nodded in agreement.
And thus, their life continued in this manner for the next two weeks, with Yuan spending most of his day training his body while Meixiu cultivated normally and did the housework.
Before they were aware, it has been almost a month since Yuan visited the Cultivators' Association, meaning that it was about time for him to visit the Spirit Masters he'd met at that time to learn more about cultivation and their history.
