Richest Mogul

Chapter 1963

There were several towns nearby with natural hot springs.

Many inns were built around them, so for the locals, this kind of establishment wasn't anything special.

"It's nice that we're staying here tonight. You can soak in the hot spring, and I'm sure you'll sleep well after," Vivian said, her voice filled with anticipation.

Manfred couldn't help but be influenced by her good mood. A faint smile appeared in his eyes.

"Alright, I'll take a soak too. Our rooms are close, so if you want to talk, just lean against the wall on your side."

Vivian's eyes lit up. She hadn't noticed before, but the inn wasn't built with bricks and tiles. Instead, it was made of wood and bamboo, making the walls thin and not very soundproof.

If she spoke while leaning against the wall, Manfred would hear her.

She grinned. "Alright."

She then returned to her room and set down her belongings.

After picking out clean clothes, she undressed and stepped into the hot spring.

The soaking pool wasn't large-smaller than the bathtub at her home. It could only fit one person lying down. Soon, the warmth of the hot spring seeped into her skin.

She let out a long, satisfied sigh. "This feels amazing. Manfred, are you in the water yet?"
