"I won't wear it," she responded matter-of-factly.
"Not wear it?" Dubian Che raised his voice slightly, "I trust you so much! I looked forward to this so much! And you deceive me?!"
"What's the rush?" Jiutiao Meijie glanced at him coldly, "There is another one."

After all the hassle, the sunlight on the veranda turned red, and the sea rippled slightly as the wind began to blow.
"Is there some time before dinner? How about a dip in the hot spring?" Dubian Che asked.
Jiutiao Meijie groaned as she stretched out her tired body from the day's walk.
She extended her slender, graceful arms, "Help me change clothes."
"I'd be delighted."
"Hm? What about the etiquette I just taught you?"
"..."
"The most beautiful geisha of Gion・Dubian, attending to a visitor from Tokyo as she changes."
Having assisted Jiutiao Meijie into her enticingly white bathrobe, Dubian Che finally managed to remove his own kimono.
