Having just finished showering, he wore only a towel around his waist. His strong, muscular upper body was exposed under the dim light, with fine water droplets sliding down his smooth, sculpted muscles, shimmering with a captivating color.

Crystalline hair swayed precariously at her waist and abdomen, then fell into the white bath towel with each step of her long, slender legs.

With each step, the condensed water droplets hanging from the tips of her hair dripped down.

Spread it across the carpet.

Bai Lu had already sat up cross-legged, resting her chin on one hand, her eyes fixed on the beautiful scenery that was approaching from afar.

He stopped right in front of her, his sharply defined face looming large before her eyes, and his cold, alluring lips spoke to her.

Where are Lulu's clothes?

Listen to this stupid question.

Three years old is the youngest.

But this matter-of-fact tone sounds very domineering, and you'll definitely be in trouble if you don't answer within half a second.

Bai Lu's casual gaze moved from the water-stained wound on his shoulder to his face.

He narrowed his eyes slightly: "There are no chairs in the bathroom, and the clothes are on the sink. Didn't you see them?"

"I didn't see it," the child said honestly.

Bai Lu knew without even thinking what he cared about: "The washbasin where I put my clothes is very clean. I wiped it with a tissue, and there wasn't a speck of dust."

Xiao Xiaohai seemed completely unconcerned, and simply hummed in agreement before sitting down in front of Bai Lu.

"Why did the wound get wet again? Didn't I tell you to be careful when you take a shower and not let water touch the wound? It's easy to get infected and it's hard to heal. Where did you hear me?" Bai Lu was angry that he didn't listen, so she gave him a hard whack.

"I'm paying attention." Xiao Xiaohai clenched his little fist in anger.

He explained earnestly, "The water is spraying down from the showerhead, there's no way to stop it, what can I do?"

Bai Lu: "..."

"Can't you take the showerhead down and wash it?"

"I didn't know there was such a way to wash it," Xiao Xiao said honestly.

With a refreshing scent that seemed to have been lingering in the moisture, he leaned closer to Bailu and said, "Lulu, go get me my clothes."

Bai Lu stared at his shoulder, her tone cool: "It's just a few steps away, can't you go get it yourself?"

She also had to rummage through her backpack to find medical alcohol and medicine to clean his wound and re-bandage it.

I don't have time to mess around with him.

Xiao Xiao thought Bai Lu was being silly, and in a fit of anger, he pinned her down: "It's Lulu's fault. She didn't tell me where my clothes were before I took a bath, so Lulu should have gone to get them!"

Bai Lu stared at him with her big eyes: "I knocked on the bathroom door three times and told you three times."

Xiao thought about it carefully.

Then he shook his head decisively: "Maybe the sound of the water was too loud, I didn't hear it."

"It's Lulu's fault that she can't hear it. Who told Lulu not to speak louder?"

Bai Lu: "..."

You really know how to turn the tables.

You've played the innocent, pitiful victim all by yourself.

Bai Lu closed her eyes, stopped talking, and ignored him, letting him figure it out on his own.

Xiao Xiaohai's realization was to bite her: "Lulu, get up quickly and go get me my clothes."

How can I get up if you're pressing down on me!

Bai Lu wanted to bite him back, but he retreated too quickly, leaving only her lips still sore.

"Take it yourself."

She turned her head away and ignored him.

Xiao Xiaohai kissed Bai Lu's neck again, and her fair and delicate skin instantly turned red.

He witnessed for the first time, besides kissing, biting on Bai Lu's neck, the whole process of which was visible to the naked eye as it turned red. He was a little stunned and a little flustered.

The angry "Lulu, go!" that was on the tip of her tongue instantly turned into a cautious "Lulu, does it hurt?"

Bai Lu remained expressionless, grinding her back teeth: "Take a bite of me and see if it hurts."

As soon as he finished speaking, a long, dark shadow loomed over him, and the throbbing carotid artery in his neck came into view.

Zoom in on her, to the corner of her mouth.

What Bai Lu noticed, however, was the wound on his shoulder that flashed by when he bent down without hesitation. It was white from being soaked in water and had no blood at all.

He had already removed the gauze and thrown it somewhere; even from so close, I couldn't smell any medicine.

If you didn't know better, you'd think he went to the bottom of a waterfall to get brainwashed.

Bai Lu pushed away the neck that was close to her lips. "Go get your clothes and change quickly. If you don't behave, I'll poke your wound with a cotton swab when I change your dressing."

Xiao Xiaohai immediately got up from her, sat down properly to the side, and looked at her seriously.

Then he rushed off to the bathroom to change his clothes.

When Bailu was taking out her medicine supplies, she rushed back in a hurry, already changed.

She obediently left her dark blue loungewear open, with the top three buttons undone below the collar, revealing the wound on her shoulder.

It was convenient for Bailu to clean his wound and change his dressing.

His handsome face was full of anticipation, and his deep, dark eyes were fixed on Bai Lu without blinking.

Clearly, what Xiao Xiao was afraid of was not having his wounds reopened.

I was afraid Bailu would get angry and wouldn't change his dressing.

Bai Lu has always had a good temper and is very gentle, but she will ignore people when she is angry.

If you ignore him, he feels uncomfortable all over, like he's fallen into an anthill and is being eaten by thousands of ants.

After gnawing on flesh and blood, they gnawed at bones, the dense, piercing bites and tearing...

After cleaning the child's wound, changing the dressing, and re-bandaging the gauze, Bai Lu noticed that his body was still stiff. Thinking that she had hurt him, she opened her mouth and blew on it to warm it up.

"Sweetie, blowing on it will make it stop hurting."

Xiao Xiao's stiff body trembled as the gentle breath touched him. He was stunned for a moment, then hugged Bai Lu tightly.

His head rested on her shoulder, his face pressed against her neck, and his breath, full of dependence and affection, fell into the crook of her neck.

"I really like Lulu."

Bai Lu still had a cotton swab in her hand. She casually threw it into the trash can and patted his back lightly.
