Chapter 621
Chapter 621 You’re Hot, I Guess?
I had never taken a tram before but had seen pictures online. The one we took was sky blue in color,
and it was not crowded. Colin sat down and hugged his suitcase contentedly while Ezekiel sat silently
beside me.
The tram was moving slowly, but the scenery along the way was beautiful. After sitting for a while, my
legs began to feel sore, so I walked inside the tram.
Ezekiel noticed and asked with concern, "How are your legs, miss?"
"They''re fine. Just sore."
He patted the seat next to him and said, "Come over here and sit down. I''ll help relieve your soreness."
I asked instinctively, "How?"
He replied seriously, "With massage."
After hearing his reply, I quickly declined. "No need to trouble yourself. I''ll just walk around a bit. Thank
you for offering."
"Miss, you don''t have to be courteous. I used to be a doctor and know how to care for patients.
Besides, we still have a long way to go, and you won''t be able to bear it if you continue being stubborn
like this."
He has a point.
Colin couldn''t stand to see me being hesitant and scolded, "Why are you hesitating? What Mike said is
right. It will be a long journey in the vige. We''ll have to walk for another hour or twoter. Besides, it''s
just a massage. You''re acting like he asked to sleep with you..."
Ezekiel''s indifferent gaze fell on Colin, and thetter wisely shut his mouth. I reluctantly sat down and
said, "Sorry for the trouble."
Ezekiel stood up and squatted in front of me. My legs were exposed since it was summer, and I was
wearing a short skirt. Suddenly, he took a handkerchief from his pocket, ced it on my skin, and
started to massage my leg. When I saw this, a pang of pain pierced through my heart.
Ezekiel… was being too cautious.
Colin saw what Ezekiel did, and his eyes widened. He wanted to say something but dared not speak
since it was Ezekiel. He just sighed repeatedly, "Unbelievable!"
I asked him, "What are you sighing about?"
"It''s nothing. Don''t mind me," Colin replied.
Ezekiel noticed our interaction and gently said, "It''s just etiquette."
His tone was calm and indifferent.
I lowered my head and asked him, "Have you been a doctor for a long time?"
"Just a few years," Ezekiel replied.
"You said you had multiple professions."
Ezekiel''s massage skill was on point, and my legs felt especially rxed under his touch. He hummed
in response, "Yes. I was forced to by certain circumstances, but neither of themsted for long."
"Oh."
He didn''t say anything else. After massaging me for half an hour, he had me stand up and take a few
steps. I found that most of the soreness had disappeared and quickly thanked him.
It seemed like I was always thanking him.
"It''s nothing to fuss over. You''re wee."
We changed a few trams on the way, and it was almost evening by the time we arrived in the vige.
The ce was bustling with people.
And most of them were dressed in traditional attire.
Colin pulled his luggage and said, "Let''s find a local and borrow a room to change. You guys can do
your thing, and I''ll do mine. Don''t worry. I''ll take you to the shrine before I leave."
I reluctantly asked, "Do we really have to change?"
"It''s better to show sincerity when entering the shrine. Besides, changing won''t take up too much time.
Stop dragging your feet and hurry up."
Colin left us for two minutes and found a local who was willing to lend us a room to change. He came
out wearing his traditional attire and said, "Do I look hot? You guys should change too!"
Colin''s attire was light purple with tree leaf patterns embroidered on top. The outer garment was ck,
and he looked imposing in it, but he wasn''t exactly handsome.
Perhaps it was because he was a foreigner, and the outfit looked odd on him, or maybe he just wasn''t
my type!
I replied to him honestly, "I guess..."
Colin''s expression suddenly changed. "Shawn taught me that phrase in English. Do you think I don''t
understand what you meant?"
I sighed. "You''re extremely handsome!"
Hearing this, he finally smiled satisfactorily.
Ezekiel asked me to change first. When I saw a ck and red kimono in the luggage, I opened the
door and asked Colin, "Which one is mine?"
"The ck one with cherry blossoms."
I closed the door and squatted down to get a better look. The ck kimono was covered with pink
cherry blossoms, which gave it a pop of color and an elegant look. The bright color of the cherry
blossom was bnced by the ck kimono. Then, I picked up the red one and examined it closely.
It was embroidered with various intricate, delicate flowers, and strangely, the sleeves were still ck
with more intricate flowers embroidered on them as well. Was this Zeke''s?
I didn''t know how to wear the kimono and reluctantly put it on before opening the door, saying
helplessly, "Colin, I don''t know how to wear it."
However, Ezekiel was the only one at the door.
This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org.
I asked in surprise, "Where''s Colin?"
"He''s waiting for us over there," Ezekiel replied.
He entered the room and said, "Let me help you, Ms. Felix."
He tied the sash for me and said, "The hem of your inner garment is only up to your knees. That''s Colin
for you."
I smiled and said, "He even picked a red one for you. I would have thought he''d picked a feminine style
for you if it didn''t have a manly style."
"Hmm. It has too many flowers," he responded.
Iforted him. "Who knows? You might look good in it."
"Ms. Felix, your wooden sandals are here," he said.
I wore white socks and wooden sandals before leaving the room.
After around nine minutes, Ezekiel finally came out of the room. He looked particrly charming
wearing that red kimono. It was because of his fair skin that the bright red color looked natural on him.
Not to mention he was already good-looking.
Iplimented him, "You''re a hundred times hotter than Colin."
Hearing this, Ezekiel smiled slightly and said, "Thank you."
"Let''s go find Colin!"
We found Colin nearby flirting with women. When he saw us, he eximed, "You look beautiful! I have
good taste. Remember to pay me back for those outfits!"
The quality and embroidery of these three attires were top-notch. Colin said it cost 5 million yen, which
is equivalent to around 35 thousand dors. Although it is not a small amount, I had just wired him 90
million dors two days ago, so I couldn''t be bothered to deal with him anymore.
"Colin, let''s get going!"
He''s always dying our schedule!
"All you care about is Shawn!" Colinined.
"Who else should I care about? Should I care about you instead?"
"I don''t want to argue with you. Let''s go to the shrine."
The road to the shrine was lively. Colin insisted on taking a photo on the stairs leading to the shrine and
found a passerby to help us.
The three of us even took a group photo!
"Renee, do you want a photo?"
"No!" I declined.
We finally arrived at the shrine after much dy. Colin led us to the backyard and said, "K''s
grandmother lives here."
Then, he quickly said, "I''m off!"
Colin left speedily. It was only Ezekiel and I left in the courtyard. I mumbled sadly, "I feel helpless."
Ezekiel looked troubled as well. "He''s yful."
"Let''s go visit the olddy."
It was a typical courtyardyout with trees nted in the area. The flowers fell with the wind, but I didn''t
know what kind of flower it was. I picked one up from the ground and knocked on K''s grandmother''s
door while holding the flower in my hand.
"Who is it?"
It was Japanese.
I don''t know Japanese.
But she sounded familiar.
I look at Ezekiel and asked, "How should wemunicate?"
"I know a little Japanese."
