A Tale of Chase and Love s1

“Long Ren, my dear pet, I want you to go out and meet Lu Wei, my sister, and Mother, Ye Feng. I want you to apologize to both of them. Give them six pearls each. Knowtow hard twenty times and kiss the earth. After you’ve done all that, please come and serve me… for I am the new boss” said Theresa.

“Mistress…”

“Eish! A pet cannot talk back to its master.” she said before throwing a strawberry at him.

“What are you waiting for? Move!” she snapped, startling Long Ren who had delved into some deep thoughts.

“It seems the former me played with you too much”

Long Ren immediately got up and rushed out of the secluded room. He was still not reconciled. Just now he was the boss, how the heck did she become the boss?

But one thing was certain. This new side of his mistress is not for play. He hurried into Ye Feng’s room and met her discussing with Lu Wei.

“Good! This saves me time. Now what were mistress instructions?” he thought as he tried to recall all she had said.

He put on a pitiful expression and walked to them. Then he went on his knees.

Lu Wei and Ye Feng were stunned. Who was this pretty girl before them?

“Madam Ye Feng, Lu Wei, I… please forgive me.” Ren begged, trying hard to make his eyes teary.

“Who are you?” Lu Wei and Ye Feng asked in unison.

Long Ren wasn’t surprised at their reaction. He expected it. After all, there were three ladies and one beast-man in the house. How then did a pretty girl come in and start begging them for forgiveness?

Long Ren sighed.

“It’s me, Long Ren,” he said in a small voice.

“Long Ren?” both exclaimed in unison.

“How is it possible? I feel that you truly are a woman from head to toe” said Ye Feng.

“Mother, how can you say that? Long Ren… he’s taller than this girl before us. Also, he wouldn’t come begging us. Don’t you know his nickname? The god of slow torture and quick slaughter.” said an unconvinced Lu Wei.

“Then maybe this will convince you,” Long Ren said as he stretched out his right palm towards them.

Then immediately green fire appeared. It was a known fact that only Long Ren had this fire. Anything it came in contact with met its end no matter how powerful it is.

“Do you believe me now?” Long Rn asked.

“We do. But why are you a woman now?” Ye Feng asked.

“Or could it be… you were a woman from the beginning?” Lu Wei chipped in.

“I am a male. That’s all you need to know,” said Long Ren before he proceeded to kowtow hard on the cold floor.

Each time he kowtowed a big bang was heard and blood constantly flowed from his forehead.

“Why are you doing this?” Lu Wei asked in alarm.

“And where is my sister?” she added. She had a premonition that something bad had happened.

“What did you do to her Lord Long Ren?” Lu Wei asked again, this time her tone was voice was high.

“…”

Long Ren did not reply to her and instead continued to kowtow until it was complete the twenty times.

He then got up and gave them 6 pearls each before vanishing leaving them astonished. They looked at each other in puzzlement.

“What is going on today?” Lu Wei asked as she stared at the six refined pearls in her palms.

“Let’s go check on your sister,” said Ye Feng.

Lu Wei nodded and both rose from the bed and made to leave fro the secluded room in a hurry.

They left the pearls on the bed and made sure the room was locked.

*****************

In the secluded room.

“I see you’re back. That was fast. I can tell that, you are obedient. Come closer,” Theresa beckoned with her left hand.

“Mistress, what happened to you?” Long Ren asked telepathically.

“You want to know?” she asked with a smile. Long Ren shook his head and instead went on his knees.

“Mistress, what are your orders?” he asked with his head bowed.

“Now that’s a good boy!” Theresa praised.

It was at this moment that a figure appeared.

“Han Fei Fei, my dear” The figure happened to be Fu Jin.

“You…” Long Ren wanted to speak when he noticed who it was but a glare from Theresa made him bow his head.

Gosh! Mistress has become scary!

“My lovely daughter, Papa saw these dumplings and thought you’d like it,” said Fu Jin as he brought out a tray from his storage ring that contained dumplings that were nicely wrapped in leaf coverings and emitting an enticing aroma.

Being a fan of food, Theresa’s eyes shone!

“Thank you, Papa, you’re the best!” she exclaimed as she snatched the tray.

“These dumplings are really good. Thank you,” Theresa remarked but these words sent many arrows into Long Ren’s chest.

“I’m so pitiful. I’m her contracted pet. I’ve done a lot for her but I only end up cast into the bush of forgetfulness. First, there was that Ye Feng, then Lu Wei and now this Fu Jin has become her father. She now has a complete and wonderful ‘family’,” Ren thought sadly.

“My dear pet, I need some entertainment before the training begins. How about you do the crab walk… or push-ups? I think push-ups would be good. What do you say, father?” Theresa asked Fu Jin who simply nodded in reply.

“Then that’s great. Long Ren, do some push-ups, precisely… twenty for a start,” she said with a sly smile.

Long Ren stared at her and then at a smiling Fu Jin.

“You bastard,” Long Ren cursed Fu Jin using voice transmission in order not to further provoke his mistress.

“So what if I’m a bastard. What’s important is that I’ve gotten a free daughter. No need to labor inside a woman so vigorously to get a child. If all men of my age were as smart as me, then… life would be truly ‘lively’,” Fu Jin replied using voice transmission.

“Shut up!” Long Ren snapped.

“Hey, blockhead, why are you just standing there? Move!” Theresa shouted startling Long Ren.

“Y… Y… Yes, mistress. Your wish is my command.” Ren said using telepathy.

Theresa began to open the dumpling wrappings slowly and tasted a bit of one of the dumplings.

“This is the best thing I’ve ever eaten since I came from Earth.” she exclaimed.

Ren shook his head in pity and rose up from the cold floor. He stared at Theresa and her new father once more, before bringing out a sack of grain from his storage ring.

“Hey! What’s that thing for?” Fu Jin asked.

“It’s for the push-ups.” replied Long Ren.

“Long Ren, Long Ren, I think you as a female are unsuitable to do push-ups since you’re currently female. I’m not that evil. How about you dance for us?” she suggested.

“I… Ok!” Ren nodded his head and wanted to start dancing when Theresa stopped him. She got up from her wooden bed and stretched her body.

“It’s so frustrating to have such a silly pet as you are.” she muttered.

“This is how I want you to dance.”This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.

Theresa began to do the belly dance. Though she’s not best at it, those hips of her would make one forget her imperfection.

Fu Jin’s eyes lit as he watched her performance. He did not know when he started licking his lips, a ‘lovestruck expression’ appeared on his face. Seeing this, Long Ren wanted to burn Fu Jin to ashes with his green fire but he also dared not take his eyes off his mistress.

His mistress even without lifting a finger would send the emperor begging to hold her hands. Now that she was giving this amazing performance he has never seen nor heard of before, he felt that protecting his mistress would become even harder as days passed.

“Amazing! Amazing! That’s my daughter. Dance, dance, dance, my dear.” Fu Jin praised as he applauded in delight.

“You hideous bull, SHUT UP!” Long Ren yelled using voice transmission.

“Why? Don’t tell me you don’t find her pretty as well. It’s a pity you no longer have your family jewel, if not by now I’m sure you’d be masturba…”

“Enough! You call yourself a doctor? Why don’t you just be a pig?” said Long Ren using voice transmission after cutting off Fu Jin.

“Err… you see, I was born a hideous bull as you earlier said. The heavens, however, took pity on me and changed me into a handsome pig and here I am, blessed with a daughter who is excellent in every aspect!” Fu Jin shamelessly said.

“You…” Long Ren gritted his teeth. He wasn’t paying attention to Theresa’s dance anymore. All he simply wanted, was to kill Fu Jin.
