Chapter 0007 – Come in, help me take a bath (1 / 2)

Before Qi Zhi Iu stepped into the bathroom, unbuttoning his shirt as he walked, his movements suddenly stalled for a moment, his voice carrying an unquestionable authority, “I may not take the initiative to look for him, but I’ve never promised not to shake the foundations of the Fu family.”

After speaking, he turned his face sideways, the corner of his mouth curved up into an evil arc, “Come in and help me take a shower.”

Su Wanqing’s footsteps lurched, her gaze subconsciously swept over his open shirt, the firm lines of his abdomen looming in the faint light, she turned around in a panic, trying to avoid this attraction that she shouldn’t have, “You’re able-bodied, why do you need me to help you bathe? This is not an ancient court!”

Qi Zhi Iu’s tone suddenly became unusually serious, “Didn’t you say that you want to spend the rest of your life making it up to me? Then, to take a bath for me, this little request, you won’t even do it?”

Su Wanqing took a deep breath and suppressed the waves within her heart, and finally decided to walk into the bathroom to try and salvage the situation.

However, the moment she entered the bathroom, the sight in front of her stunned her slightly.

Shirts and suit pants were strewn messily on the floor, looking particularly harsh.

“I’m going to count to three, and if you don’t show up, you don’t have to come!”

From within the bathroom came Qi Zhiyu’s slightly impatient voice, mixed with a hint of threat, “In that case, consider yourself breaking our agreement.”

Su Wanqing’s clenched fists gave away her nervousness, but she didn’t flinch and resolutely stepped into the bathroom.

Only to see Qi Zhi Iu with a towel around his waist, standing next to the bathtub, his upper body exposed, those scratches on his back from last night’s and this morning’s altercation were particularly eye-catching.

All these memories caused Su Wanqing’s cheeks to involuntarily blush.

She lowered her head, deliberately avoiding the marks, and reached down to unscrew the faucet and begin to run the water.

Qi Zhiyu stepped one foot into the tub and warned, “Don’t let the water be too hot or too cold.”

She meticulously tweaked the temperature of the water until it felt neither too cold nor too hot, just right.

But Qi Zhiyu suddenly picked at it, “It’s too cold.”

Su Wanqing was stunned in her heart, there is a difference in body temperature between men and women, the water temperature that she found suitable, he even felt cold?

For a moment, it dawned on her that this was another one of his provocations!

So she dryly turned the faucet to the cold end and poked her fingers into the water again, confirming that this time the water was indeed a little cooler than before, but still retained a touch of warmth.

Without looking up, she inquired absently, “Is it okay now?”

In the bathtub, Qi Zhiyu, his hands resting on the edge of the tub, his chest heaving with easy laughter, he suddenly raised his hand and snapped his fingers in front of her eyes, “What now?”

Su Wanqing was just about to raise her head in response, but suddenly–

“Puff-“

Her entire body was pulled violently into the bathtub by him, and in an instant there was a splash of water that caught her off guard as she choked on several mouthfuls of water and coughed violently. In a panic, she fought to grab the edge of the tub before avoiding complete submersion.

Wiping the droplets of water from her face, she glared angrily at the man who was gazing at her smugly, “Qi Zhi Iu, what the hell are you up to again?”

The corners of his mouth still hung with that seeming smile, as if he was enjoying this sudden banter, “I’m just worried that you won’t be able to empathize with the appropriateness of the temperature of this water, and I purposely allowed you to experience it for yourself.”

“The water is just the right temperature!”

Su Wanqing forced herself to endure the chill in the water and said in a pretense of relaxation, while not forgetting to turn the tables, “After all, there is a difference in the body temperatures of men and women, so if you don’t think it’s hot enough, I’ll be able to go fetch some ice so you can experience how cool it really is.”
