“No, no, stop, Bai Muchuan!”
The water temperature was moderate and comfortable.
It felt so comfortable that Xiang Wan could not stop quivering…
Her injured leg was Bai Muchuan’s ‘focal point of attention’.
While he was helping her bath, he was especially careful and gentle to avoid the wound…
Well, he was so careful that it tickles…
Yes, he was so gentle that she felt shy.
From what she remembered, no one else had ever helped to bathe her.
This was the first time…
She felt ticklish everywhere.
“Don’t move!” Bai Muchuan squatted down and eyeballed her, as though making a round in his territory.
Xiang Wan couldn’t take it and pinched him several times. “Are you helping me bath or are you tickling me?”
Bai Muchuan by then was already wet as she was kicking about whenever she felt ticklish. His hair was wet due to the splashes; his high-bridged nose and thin lips; nice eyebrows and good-looking face… When Bai Muchuan heard that, he found it funny. “Are you bathing or are you murdering your husband?”
Xiang Wan let out a scream, her knees felt weak.
“… Bai Muchuan, I don’t want to bathe anymore. I’m done…”
“Okay, okay, don’t bathe anymore. If so, we should… do it…”
His words sparked off some emotions in her, stirring her insides like a fire had met gasoline.
Her glistening fair skin with the water droplets felt like flowers in bloom with dew on them. Bai Muchuan’s breathing gradually got heavy.
“Is that okay, Little Xiang Wan?”
“Mm…” Xiang Wan let out a huff.
He was a hot-blooded man and was hungry for a long time. How would he be able to endure anymore?
Once Bai Muchuan got her permission, he lifted her wounded leg and let her sit on the washstand again. He embraced her tightly and kissed her lips tightly. He was using so much strength that his fingers felt like they were going to enter her skin…
Her heart was as if filled with ripples that in no time, she felt a wave of goosebumps all over.
“Bai Muchuan…”
He lifted his head.
His gaze was bright and sharp like knives as if he was about to go in for the kill…
“… No!” Xiang Wan lifted her head and gathered her senses as she spoke. “Not… here…”
“Mm?” He did not seem to understand.
“Your ‘surprise’… is still outside.”
“…”
Bai Muchuan’s senses were still there.
He glanced at her.
“Wait a while.”
The next moment, he started to shower himself.
Hence, Xiang Wan got to appreciate the ‘the bathing scene of the stud’…
Sitting at the washstand, she observed his well-toned muscles—his back, his waist, his scars, and his injured arm wrapped with gauze. These wounds were a kind of attraction to her…
Xiang Wan felt her heart drumming wildly at that sight.
His long and sturdy legs looked manly in the shower.
His abdominal muscles, his V-line below his abs… as well as the ninth abdominal muscle that stretched out from the bush…
Her mouth started to feel dry.
She looked away.
However, she realized that she did not want to miss this visual feast.
As she snuck another glance, Bai Muchuan caught her.
Bai Muchuan did not say anything. He wiped his shoulder with the towel and walked toward her…
“You’re done washing… just like this?” When Xiang Wan spoke, she noticed that her voice was already hoarse.
“A quick shower has to be fast.” Bai Muchuan’s heart skipped a beat as he looked at her flushed face. He pinched her nose gently. “Little Xiang Wan, do you know that by looking like that… I really felt like eating you up?”
“…”
“Silly!” Seeing that she kept quiet, Bai Muchuan did not want to tease her anymore. He controlled his strong emotions and carried her up. “Let’s go, we need to go out to find our ‘surprise’!”
Xiang Wan saw their reflection from the mirror. She lowered her head slowly and leaned against him.
Bai Muchuan was not used to her sudden obedient behavior.
Women’s thoughts during such moments could be peculiar. Bai Muchuan could not grasp what she was thinking. Hence, he patted Xiang Wan’s back slowly.
“What happened? Darling…”
“Mm.” Xiang Wan replied with a muffled tone.
“I… am a little unwell.”
“Mm?” Bai Muchuan furrowed his eyebrows. “Where are you unwell?”
“My leg…” Xiang Wan took a gasp; both of her hands were now clinging onto his neck as she tried to lift herself higher. “You used so much strength earlier,” said Xiang Wan slowly, “my leg almost broke…”
“…”
Bai Muchuan carried and put her on the soft quilt without another word and proceeded to check her wound.
“Is it okay?” Xiang Wan asked.
“It’s okay…”
“Mm!”
Xiang Wan wanted to sit up but before she could that, a shadow loomed over her.
Her man’s hand pushed her back on the quilt.
At one moment, she felt as if she had fallen into a fluffy cloud. Bai Muchuan was as though went crazy as the strength he used when kissing her was greater than earlier…
Xiang Wan was confused; she didn’t know what had happened to him again!
She was puzzled.
However, she was unable to ask him.
In a state of confusion, she could only feel her injured leg being lifted by him carefully once more…
Xiang Wan couldn’t control herself and was shaking slightly, her body was stiff!
Bai Muchuan sighed softly as his clammy palm patted her gently.
“Silly girl, relax!”
“… How, how to relax?”
Xiang Wan didn’t realize how stiff she had looked. When she asked him, she almost bit her tongue as well.
Bai Muchuan chortled when he saw that…
Like the temperature of the fire, Xiang Wan quivered.
She wanted to ask him, “Where is your ‘surprise’?”
She did not get the chance to do so though…
…
Xiang Wan was trembling uncontrollably.
She was totally unprepared. Her innocent eyes were wide-opened in an instant.
Then, she curled up her body.
“Bai Muchuan, you…”
Just gone ahead?
She gasped and felt like cursing but was unable to say another word.
It hurts! It hurts too much!
She was angry and felt resentful, water accumulated at the corners of her eyes in no time.
“… How can you do this to me?”
Bullying her like this.
Not giving her any time to prepare…
Bai Muchuan did not move, he did not speak for quite a while.
Gasping for breath, he looked into Xiang Wan’s pitiful and annoyed gaze.
“Little Xiang Wan…”
He seemed to have used up all energy as he said those three words.
As Xiang Wan bit her lip, he took a deep breath. “I did that… so you won’t feel uncomfortable…”
After that, he paused for a while when his lips started to form a smile. “It’s also for the sake of… not letting the ‘surprise’ take advantage… your first time must be mine…”
What a bizarre reason!
However, Xiang Wan felt much better when she heard that.
… If she were to expect that pain…
Then… what would she have done?
Would she persist?
Rather, would the pain worsen?
If she was given a heads up, she would definitely be dawdling. If that was the case, wouldn’t she get a prolonged period of suffering in return?
When she realized that, with regards to Bai Muchuan not giving her any warning, she now couldn’t understand where he was coming from.
But… d*rn, it really hurts! She thought.
Her eyebrows were crinkled together. “We… stop here?”
“…”
For him, this request of hers seemed fatal.
Sure enough, Bai Muchuan’s eyebrows scrunched up into a frown.
“You… little thing!”
He did not finish his words when he suddenly hugged her closely…
For at least two to three minutes…
… Then, he kissed her on the forehead…
“Darling, does it hurt a lot?”
Xiang Wan was breaking out in cold sweat.
She looked up at him. “… What do you think?”
Bai Muchuan looked at her, and the gauze wrapped around her leg.
Slowly, he uttered a few words. “Me too…”
“…”
He also felt pain?
Is he for real? Can he more shameless than this? She thought.
Xiang Wan looked at him, confused and with disbelief.
Bai Muchuan revealed a half-smile.
“Earlier on, we are getting used to each other, like a drill practice? Now…” he said in his husky voice as he kissed her from the forehead slowly moving down to her cheek. He then smooched her on the nose, then on her lips, and lastly, on her ears. His gentle voice felt strangely soft. “The real battle begins now!”
“…”
Xiang Wan could not say a word.
He was too gentle.
He was different from the earlier ‘mighty storm’.
Every time when he looked at her, it was filled with devotion.
… Like he was holding a treasure.
Such a Bai Muchuan…
He was like a different person in an instant.
“Don’t blame me.” He said.
“Earlier on, I was… a little… Hmm, too hungry for it!” He continued.
“And… I searched… in Baidu.” He kissed her and sounded a little breathy. “It said that that was actually the best way… for you… to handle the pain…”
“…” Xiang Wan’s heart quivered slightly.
Besides acknowledging it, she was unable to say a word.
He even made an effort to search about this on Baidu…
Aye! Should she praise him or laugh at his silliness?
Bai Muchuan laughed and cupped her face, giving her a loud kiss. Then, he handed the ‘surprise’ to Xiang Wan.
“You help me put it on…”
His tender words felt like the chant that could bring her to heaven.
The lighting inside the room was dim.
Xiang Wan narrowed her eyes slightly, her vision felt warm and fuzzy.
That night, she knew she had fallen.
