That night.

Chen Ao boiled a large pot of hot water and asked Bai Ying to take Jiahui to take a bath first, while he stood guard in the yard.

Bai Ying was not polite either.

First, scoop out hot water and put it in a basin, then mix it with cold water to adjust the water temperature to the appropriate level. Then take off your clothes and start taking a bath.

It’s called washing, but because there is no bath tub at home, it’s actually just wiping the body with a towel dipped in water.

Bai Ying first scrubbed Jiahui carefully. After being scrubbed clean, Jiahui looked even whiter and tenderer. Her little face was also red from the steam, making her look even more adorable, making people want to take a bite of her.

"Jiahui, why are you so cute? Auntie likes you so much."

Bai Ying squatted down, hugged Jiahui and kissed her again and again.

Jiahui's face turned even redder, and she whispered, "Jiahui likes auntie too."

Even Huang Xia, her biological mother, had never been as close to her as Bai Ying.

Although her grandmother was very kind to her, she was a member of the older generation and was more introverted. She was not as extroverted as Bai Ying and did not say whatever she thought without restraint.

She felt a little embarrassed...

"Jiahui, can your aunt sleep with you at night?" Bai Ying expressed her plan.

Chen Ao was allocated two rooms. When they lived in the cowshed before, they had no choice but to share a bed with Chen Ao. Now that there were two rooms, it would be better for them to live separately. She and Jiahui lived in one room, and Chen Ao lived in one room by himself.

The reason for making this decision was not because she hated Shen Ao and wanted to separate from him.

The main thing is that both of them have jobs in the army, so they can't make trouble so late at night. If they don't get enough rest and someone finds out the next day, it would be too embarrassing.

Bai Ying admitted that she was still a little thin-skinned in this regard...

However, Bai Ying miscalculated.

I thought Jiahui would happily agree to her, but she suddenly woke up as if she had thought of something, and hurriedly struggled out of Bai Ying's arms:

"Auntie, I want to sleep by myself! I, I'm sleepy, I'm going to sleep first!"

Jiahui remembered the many instructions her father gave her before he left, asking her to sleep in her own room and to move her aunt and her second aunt into the same room.

Even if her father didn't say it, she would do it.

Don't underestimate her because she is young. She actually discovered it a long time ago. Ever since she was old enough to understand things, her parents have made her sleep in the middle of the kang. After her parents stopped sleeping together, they quarreled from time to time throughout the day.

Later, my mother moved away and never came back...

She didn't want what happened to her parents to happen to her aunt and uncle because of her. She would really blame herself to death if that happened.

Bai Ying still didn't give up, "Jiahui, you've never slept alone before. You'd be scared if you did, right? Can your aunt stay with you tonight?"

"I-I'm not afraid!"

Jiahui was afraid that Bai Ying would carry her back to the room to sleep. She was so scared that she didn't even bother to put on her shoes. She ran into the second bedroom barefoot, then stood on tiptoe to bolt the door, as if she was guarding against Bai Ying.

“…”

Turning her head to look at the kang in the master bedroom, Bai Ying's heart was pounding.

Do I have to sleep together with the boss tonight?

Before she could prepare herself mentally, the tightly closed door was suddenly knocked from outside, and then Shen Ao's voice came in through the crack of the door, as if mixed with a bit of cold wind.

"Bai Ying, are you done washing?"

Bai Ying suddenly woke up, "Right, right away!"

"Okay, no rush."

Despite what Shen Ao said, Bai Ying still finished washing herself as quickly as possible.

She forgot to take the clean clothes out of the bag, and it was inconvenient to go to the master bedroom to look for them while her body was still wet. Bai Ying had no choice but to wrap her body with a dry towel. Fortunately, the towel was large enough to cover all the key parts.

"Okay, okay."

Bai Ying pulled out the bolt and let Shen Ao in.

The man's tall shadow was cast down, completely covering Bai Ying.

Inside the room, the candlelight flickered, and the warm candlelight hit Shen Ao's face. The shadow fell on the man's sharp and perfect jawline, inexplicably deepening the aura of aggression.

A strong sense of oppression came over me——

Bai Ying subconsciously held her breath, not daring to look up at Chen Ao, but just lowered her eyes and stared at her toes.

Before, because they all lived in the cowshed and the conditions were poor, they didn’t care so much. They thought that being able to have enough food and clothes and meet basic living needs was good enough, so they didn’t think the difference between men and women was so important.

After all, the conditions are limited.

But now...

Once the conditions were met, she suddenly felt a little embarrassed for some reason.

Bai Ying is not the only one who feels embarrassed.

After Shen Ao entered the room, he never expected that Bai Ying was not wearing any clothes at all. No matter how big the towel was, it could not cover Bai Shuang's straight and slender legs.

The lines of the legs are smooth and superior, extending all the way up until they are covered by the white towel, which makes people unable to help but have dirty thoughts.

What's more, the girl's fair and smooth skin was exposed outside the towel...

Shen Ao felt as if he had been stabbed. He quickly looked away, his Adam's apple rolling violently, and he could hardly speak clearly.

"Why aren't you wearing any clothes?"

Bai Ying was a little embarrassed, "I forgot to take it out of the bag."

"Where is it? I'll get it for you."

"In the third dark bundle at the end of the bed, there's a pure cotton skirt..."

The more detailed Bai Ying explained, the more headache Shen Ao felt.

If it took him so long to find it, and Bai Ying stayed in the main room the whole time, wouldn't she catch a cold?

"A-choo!"

Just as he was thinking about it, Bai Ying couldn't help but sneeze.

Chen Ao stopped listening to Bai Ying's chatter and went straight forward to pick up Bai Ying.
