After ending the video call, Anjing Zhen walked toward the bedroom door, lost in thought.
Tokai Teio's plan kept circling through his mind. He felt both excited and slightly apprehensive about this possible trip abroad.
As he walked, he vaguely heard some movement at the door. He froze for a moment, then instinctively quickened his pace and reached out to open it.
Outside the door, Kitasan Black and Little Anzu were pressed against it, clearly eavesdropping.
They obviously hadn't reacted yet. When the door suddenly opened, both of them Lost Balance and tumbled to the floor.
Kitasan Black ended up on the bottom. She hurriedly braced herself against the floor, her hair slightly disheveled.
Little Anzu was sprawled on top of her, looking equally flustered.
"-What are you two doing?"
Looking at the two Horse Girls, Anjing Zhen didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "You've been eavesdropping outside this whole time?"
Hearing that, Kitasan Black and Little Anzu, piled on the floor, instinctively raised and lowered their heads respectively. They exchanged a glance, then both revealed awkward smiles.
"Um, well—Trainer, we—we were just passing by—"
Little Anzu spoke first with an embarrassed laugh, but her voice grew quieter and quieter as she went on.
"Isn't that... too far-fetched?"
"Listen—actually, we were just curious—"
Kitasan Black also laughed awkwardly, her face red as she said, "Trainer had been in the room for a long time, and there hadn't been much noise. You also didn't say anything to us, so we came over to listen a little..."
"Actually—we didn't hear much—"
"Mhm, mhm! That's right, that's right!"
Little Anzu hurriedly nodded like a pecking chick and anxiously agreed. "We only heard a tiny little bit, not much at all—"
Anjing Zhen found the two Horse Girls' eavesdropping more amusing than anything
