"I……"
Bai Ying blinked a few times at Chen Ao, but was too embarrassed to tell the truth.
"What? Is your allergy worse? Let me take a look."
Chen Ao looked puzzled. He put down the bucket, walked towards the bed, and reached out to lift the quilt to check the situation.
Bai Ying hurriedly grabbed the quilt with her hands to stop Chen Ao from lifting it, "No! No way!"
Chen Ao thought that Bai Ying had some health problems, so he frowned and advised her in a good-tempered manner: "You are also a doctor, you should know that you can't be shy about practicing medicine. Your health is the most important thing now."
"No," Bai Ying's face flushed, and she had to confess: "I took off my clothes, but I couldn't unhook my underwear."
Shen Ao's Adam's apple rolled, and a blush appeared on his face. He quickly looked away and said in a slightly unnatural voice: "How can I help?"
"Can you help me untie it?"
Bai Ying looked at Chen Ao eagerly, her eyelashes fluttering twice, her eyes filled with water, which could simply melt anyone's heart.
If Bai Ying hadn't felt stuffy in her underwear, making her already itchy skin from allergies even more uncomfortable, and if she hadn't been worried that she would scratch her skin again after falling asleep, she would have endured it.
Why do you need to beg for help in such an embarrassing way now?
"……Um."
Shen Ao's response was barely perceptible.
Bai Ying took a deep breath and bravely grabbed Chen Ao's hand. His fingers were long and slender with distinct joints. Not only was their length, but their width was also much larger than her hand.
Although it was a lot rougher due to the thin calluses, it felt dry and warm to the touch, completely different from her own hand. I wondered what it would feel like to touch it differently...
For some reason, Bai Ying blushed.
She pretended to be calm, took Chen Ao's hand and entered the bed, covering her underwear on the back, and said in a barely audible voice: "Just unbutton it."
"good."
It felt warm, cool and smooth when he touched it. Even the small piece of cloth was extremely soft. It was not even as wide as his palm. He didn't know what kind of scenery was wrapped in it. Shen Ao inexplicably felt his throat a little dry.
He didn't dare to think about it any further. His fingers moved flexibly and he easily solved the problem that had troubled Bai Ying.
As the buttons popped open, Bai Ying felt relieved and breathed a sigh of relief. In order to be more comfortable, she pulled the quilt up, turned over and took off the cotton shirt.
Even though he couldn't see the specific situation through the quilt, Chen Ao guessed what Bai Ying was doing. He quickly withdrew his hand from the quilt, and accidentally touched something on the way. The soft touch was fleeting.
Could it be...
Chen Ao's throat choked, and he felt a little unsteady. He quickly said, "I'll go boil some water and wash you."
After saying that, he hurried out of the house with a bucket of water as if there was a flood or a beast behind him.
"……Thanks."
Bai Ying felt extremely embarrassed. She curled up under the quilt. As the last bit of cloth was removed, her whole body was smooth and naked, and the soft and comfortable quilt wrapped her up.
This was the first time since she could remember that she had lived in the same room with a man. Bai Ying was a little afraid to think about how she would sleep tonight, so she had to temporarily put this question out of her mind and act like a turtle.
It seems that as long as you don’t think about it, difficulties will not happen.
Bai Ying was waiting in the room until she was a little sleepy. When she was about to fall asleep, Chen Ao came back with the bucket and put it beside the bed, where Bai Ying could reach it.
"I'll go out first. Call me when you're done cleaning up." After saying that, Shen Ao hurried out of the room.
Seeing this, Bai Ying was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
Is she some kind of man-eating demon? Why does Shen Ao avoid her like the plague?
Looking at the steaming wooden barrel in front of her, with a brand new towel thoughtfully placed inside for wiping, Bai Ying felt a little warm in her heart.
Sure enough, she was not wrong about him. Shen Ao was indeed a very good person. Marrying Shen Ao was the best choice she had made in her life!
Bai Ying wiped every place she could reach, and also wiped her back as much as possible, without intending to trouble Shen Ao again.
It’s not that she was shy or anything, but seeing that Chen Ao seemed to be holding it in very hard, she thought that she should stop torturing Chen Ao for the time being, and she couldn’t just pick on the good guys to bully them!
After washing with warm water, Bai Ying wiped off all the water stains on her body with a dry towel, nestled comfortably in the quilt, and fell into a deep sleep in a short while.
By the time Shen Ao returned, the water in the barrel had already gone cold.
The water was still clean, and he didn't mean to dislike Bai Ying. He used the water to wash his body to cool down, changed into a clean pair of army green trousers, and then went to bed.
Instead of trying to grab Bai Ying's quilt, Chen Ao came to the small space between the wall and Bai Ying, lay down on his side, and held Bai Ying, who was wrapped in the quilt, in one hand.
Bai Ying was completely unaware and was still sleeping with her eyes closed. Her fair cheeks bulged with every breathing, just like a sleeping little white rabbit.
Chen Ao looked at Bai Ying deeply, then closed his eyes in satisfaction, with an imperceptible curve at the corner of his lips.
Although he could only look at his beautiful wife but not touch her, he was already happier just by looking at her...
Soon, both of them fell into a deep sleep.
——
At the same time, Bai Mo finally avoided the pursuit of the county police and returned to Liushu Village.
The wedding character posted during the day was still on the door of the Bai family. Bai Mo felt a pang of pain in his heart when he saw it. He couldn't believe that he was still late.
The gate is closed.
Bai Mo had no choice but to endure the pain in his shoulder, and with the help of his long legs, he turned over and jumped into the wall. Perhaps because he was very skilled, the sound of his landing was barely noticeable and did not attract the attention of the Bai family.
The lights in the east and west wings were out.
Bai Mo couldn't force his way into Bai Ying's room, so he could only go back to his room and stay there until dawn to figure out what was going on.
He lived in the north room and had to pass through the main room to enter. However, the Bai family did not expect him to come back so late at night, so the door was locked from the inside.
Bai Mo had no choice but to go to the window of his parents' room and knock twice to wake them up and open the door.
The lights were still on in the room. The couple sat on the kang and chatted quietly. The dim light of the kerosene lamp shone through the plastic sheet onto Bai Mo's face outside the window.
He was just about to raise his hand to knock, but before he could put his hand down, he suddenly heard the voices of his parents coming from inside.
"Dad, now that Yingzi is married, I'm finally relieved," Chu Xianglan breathed a sigh of relief. "I don't have to worry about her grandmother arranging some unreliable marriage for her anymore."
Bai Maozhong echoed, "Yes, the eldest brother is living in such a turmoil now because of the marriage that mother arranged. We can't let Yingzi be like this too."
Chu Xianglan lowered her voice, carrying an inexplicable sadness. "When I first brought Yingzi home, she was still so tiny. She caught a cold in the ditch and was always sick. I didn't expect that she has grown up so big in the blink of an eye. I really don't want to let her get married..."
My little sister isn't actually my parents' biological daughter?!
Bai Mo was so shocked that he kicked the stone at his feet without paying attention, causing it to roll twice.
Clang——!
The noise immediately attracted the attention of the two people in the room, "Who's outside?"
