After dinner, Bai Qihan returned to his room. The room was a little hot, so he reached out and unbuttoned his shirt one by one. As he was halfway through, a knock came from the door. He thought that it was the housekeeper, so he did not think much about it and said, “Come in.” Then he continued to take off his clothes and threw his shirt on the bed.

The door was pushed open.

Luo Yun entered and saw that Bai Qihan had taken his shirt off and was currently half-naked. His abdominal muscles were clear and distinct, and pretty much all of the muscles on his body were well-sculpted. They were not firm nor bulky; their shape and contours could simply be said to be perfect. His muscles were normally hidden under his shirt. Additionally, people would generally attribute him to be of the refined type, making it quite the surprise to see how well-built he was. It was obvious that he was persistent in training.

Now that she was in, if she went out, she felt that that would be too cowardly of her, and she knew that she would end up regretting it a bit. She quickly said, “Are you going to take a shower? Do you need my help?”

Bai Qihan’s forehead twitched uncontrollably. He pressed the tip of his tongue against the back of his molars and asked her after a long while, “How do you want to help?” When he said that, the corners of his lips curled up slightly, and a hint of mockery was hidden in his black eyes.

Luo Yun had originally wanted to ask him about the family banquet, but she just so happened to run into him when he was about to take a shower. She thought for a while and said seriously, “I can… Uhh, I’ll run your bath first and help you change your clothes. I’ll go and fill the water for you now.” As she spoke, she walked toward the bathroom.

However, before she could take two steps, she was stopped by Bai Qihan.

Luo Yun looked back, waiting for him to speak.

“The bathroom is over there.” Bai Qihan raised his chin and pointed in the opposite direction she was walking.

Luo Yun turned around awkwardly.

The bathroom was huge, with a huge hand-carved jacuzzi. There was also a projection screen on the wall so that Bai Qihan could watch a movie while bathing. But Luo Yun believed that he was more likely to use it to read documents. When she was adjusting the water temperature, Bai Qihan pushed the door open and entered. He was holding clean pajamas in his hands as he entered.

“Can you do it alone?” After Luo Yun mentally prepared herself, she raised her head, looked at him, and said, “Do you need me to help you take off your clothes? No, take off your pants?” When she finished speaking, she realized that he had already taken off most of his clothes. Moreover, there was nothing to be embarrassed about. They were husband and wife. It was normal for her to help him bathe. She bit her lip and met his eyes, not avoiding them.

Bai Qihan was indifferent. He did not know why, but the scene of her bending over in front of him last night flashed through his mind.

Was she really innocent and ignorant, so she spoke without any scruples? Or did she see him as someone completely disabled, so she was fearless? Or did she actually take the initiative like this… with anyone? His gaze darkened, and his voice went deeper. “There’s no need for you to do this. You can just go out.”

Bai Qihan had always been cold and distant, keeping people away from him. Even though he looked gentle on the surface, he was still cold deep inside.

Luo Yun was not afraid that he would be annoyed and explained, “Wouldn’t it be more convenient for you if I were to help you? If you’re not used to it, I’ll come back next time. I’ll help you when you’re fine with it.” She remained still patient and did not mind his coldness at all. She said gently, “I’ll head out first. Call me if you need anything.”

After closing the door, Luo Yun let out a sigh.

Bai Qihan leaned against the walls of the huge jacuzzi and thought about Luo Yun’s words. If he was not fine with it now, would she come back when he was? She clearly wanted to control him, and she was determined not to give up until she achieved her goal. She used to love to smile and speak more directly, never beating around the bush.

Bai Qihan closed his eyes. This was the first time where his mind was filled with thoughts about her when taking a bath. He suddenly opened his eyes and projected his phone onto the screen. He started to look at the project proposal, but after looking at it for a while, he felt extremely bored. He did not know who made these things, but the only thought in his head was that whoever it was had to be fired!

…

Luo Yun took a shower after returning to her room. After drying her hair, she started to apply a facial mask. She was a little nervous when she thought about going back to the Bai family’s old residence with Bai Qihan tomorrow. She then realized that she had not even chosen her clothes yet.

Luo Yun took off her facial mask and went to her wardrobe. This place was actually connected to Bai Qihan’s wardrobe, so she could directly go to his room from here. However, with the state that they were currently in, it would be quite rude for her to simply barge into his room. She simply focused on choosing her clothes for tomorrow. In the end, she chose a few plain-colored dresses for Bai Qihan to choose between.

She was wearing a teddy bear nightgown and gently knocked on the side door. “Can I come in?”

“Come in.”

Luo Yun walked in and showed Bai Qihan the different dresses. “I want you to help me choose which one to wear. Which one would be suitable for me to wear tomorrow?”

Bai Qihan’s lips were just about to move when he heard her say, “Wait! You can’t say that everything is suitable, and you can’t say that it’s up to me!”

Bai Qihan was speechless. He had no idea what to say as she had just taken the words out of his mouth!
