Dragon Ball: Reborn as a Saiyan, They Covet Me Chapter 23

"Why don't you bring Goku to me once you find him? While you're at it, how about letting Chi-Chi study martial arts under me for a while? What do you think?"

Chi-Chi's eyes lit up instantly.

She said excitedly, "Being able to study martial arts with Goku would be absolutely wonderful! Daddy, let's go find Goku right away!"

Ox-King was also beaming with joy.

"Oh my, Chi-Chi, you are truly so fortunate. Master Roshi doesn't take on students easily; why don't you hurry up and kowtow to Master Roshi?"

Chi-Chi was startled, but she immediately knelt down and kowtowed to Master Roshi.

"Chi-Chi pays her respects to Master Roshi."

Master Roshi chuckled, "Alright, alright, there's no need for such useless formalities. Once you and Goku join my school, there will still be an assessment to pass!"

Chi-Chi blinked her eyes in curiosity.

Soon, she and Ox-King left Kame House.

"Daddy, where do you think Goku went?"

Ox-King muttered, "I have no idea! However, since they are searching for the Dragon Balls, they certainly won't be wandering aimlessly; there should be tracks to follow. Besides, Goku has had a tail since he was little, making him different from everyone else. Plus, the two of them have the Flying Nimbus, so if we make some inquiries, we should be able to find them."

Chi-Chi nodded, "That's true! Daddy, let's hurry and find Goku. I'm so looking forward to training with him under Master Roshi!"

"Oh? Aren't you going to find Gohan to propose marriage first?"

Chi-Chi's face turned red.

"The books say that the bond of childhood sweethearts is more reliable than the orders of parents. I believe that if I can spend some time with Goku, he will definitely fall in love with me..."

Having said that, Chi-Chi buried her flushed face deep down.

Ox-King laughed heartily.

"You're right. My daughter is so adorable that as long as you spend some time together, Goku will surely fall deeply in love with you! However, Goku has a strong competitor in Bulma, so if you want him to like you more, you must be gentler toward him when you're together in the future!"

"Mm, I know!"

25 I Am His Fiancée

The next day at dawn.

Hotel.

A rich aroma of delicious food wafted over, and Goku opened his eyes.

He saw Bulma had set up a small table to the side, covered with all sorts of tasty treats.

Goku sat up, "Bulma, you're up so early?"

Bulma looked up toward the bed and smiled, "You're awake! I was just about to call you. It's not early anymore; I fed you a bottle of wine yesterday, and it's already noon now."

"Is that so? It's already noon?"

Goku looked up toward the window.

The sun was quite bright.

Bulma said, "Alright, Goku, wash your hands and face, and hurry up and eat!"

"Mm!"

With that, Goku climbed out of bed.

Then, he immediately fell flat on his face.

Bulma was startled. "What's wrong, Goku?"

"Oh, it's just... suddenly not having a tail anymore, I'm not quite used to it!"

"Should I help you walk, then?"

"No need, I can manage on my own!"

Having said that, Goku stood up once more.

Unexpectedly, he fell flat on his face again.

Bulma hurried forward and helped Goku up.

She comforted him, "Don't worry. For so many years, you've been used to your tail to keep your balance. Now that it's suddenly gone, you're bound to feel unaccustomed to it. Just take a few days to get used to it, and you'll be fine."

Goku nodded. "Yeah, I know."

After that, Bulma helped Goku wash up, and then they returned to the table to eat.

After lunch, Bulma helped Goku leave the hotel once again.

When the hotel staff saw Goku limping along, supported by Bulma as they left, they all gasped in shock.

"Holy crap!"

"Did you guys see that?"

"The woman is perfectly fine, but the little boy is limping..."

"I'm curious, he's so young, he's still just a kid—does he even have the capacity for that?"

"Hahahaha, that's wild!"

"I've lived a long time, but this is the first time I've seen a man limp out of a hotel!"

"But why is the little boy holding his butt?"

"Heh heh, did you forget about that tail?"

"Oh, oh, oh! I remember now."

"That rich woman must have been playing with his attachment so crazily that she broke the kid!"

"Hahaha, young people really know how to have fun!"

"What do they call this again?"

"Beauty and the Beast?"

"Don't you mean Beauty and the Little Beast?"

"Hehehe, I'm dying of laughter. It seems there's no such thing as a free lunch in this world. The love of a rich woman is truly heavy!"

"Ahahahahaha..."

Just an hour after the group had been discussing this, Ox-King walked into the hotel with Chi-Chi.

Everyone fell silent.

The massive height difference between Ox-King and Chi-Chi made the hotel staff gasp once more.

They all began to doubt their own sanity. What was going on lately? Why were there so many abnormal couples?

The front desk clerk immediately asked, "Hello, are you looking to check in?"

"Our hotel has just launched the Emotional Suite. It's only 998—would you like one?"

Ox-King didn't respond to the offer, instead asking, "We aren't staying. We're here to ask about someone. Has your hotel recently hosted a little boy with a tail and a blue-haired woman?"

The people at the front desk were suddenly startled.

Seeing the sudden change in their expressions, Ox-King understood instantly.

Chi-Chi immediately grew excited and asked, "Seeing your expressions change like that..."

"You must have seen Son Goku. Are they in this hotel?"

The crowd fell silent.

Leaking a client's privacy was certainly not a good thing.

Unexpectedly, Ox-King slammed his hand onto the table.

"My daughter is asking you a question. Answer her at once!"

The person in charge of the front desk felt a tightening in his gut, then steeled himself and said, "I apologize, but our hotel has its own rules. Furthermore, out of professional ethics, we must keep our guests' privacy confidential."

As soon as the words left his mouth, Ox-King's face turned a shade of iron-blue.

Fearing that Ox-King might wreck the establishment, the hotel manager hurried over to smooth things over.

"You two, may I ask what your relationship is to the person you are inquiring about? According to our principles, we cannot disclose a guest's privacy to strangers. However, if you are acquaintances..."

Chi-Chi's face flushed red as she immediately explained, "Then I shall tell you my identity. I am Son Goku's fiancée!"

Hearing Chi-Chi's words, the crowd was shocked once again; this was some juicy gossip!

The manager confirmed once more, "Are you saying that the little boy with a tail sticking out of his backside is named Son Goku, and he is your future husband?"

Hearing him describe it so precisely, Chi-Chi was overjoyed. "That's right! So he really is staying here! Tell me, which room is he in?"

"I'm sorry, but your timing is unfortunate!"
