"Do you know any lawyers?" Xiao Yao asked Zhong Xuyang, who was working in the study, after finishing her phone call with Gu Yueji in the room.
Zhong Xuyang paused in replying to an email, then pulled her hand. "What's wrong?"
Xiao Yao moved closer to him. "Yueji's husband is in trouble. A worker fell to his death at the construction site. Her husband has been detained, and she is currently looking for an experienced lawyer."
Zhong Xuyang was taken aback, then said, "We have a legal counsel at our factory who is quite experienced. I can recommend her."
Xiao Yao's eyes lit up when she heard that. "Really?"
Zhong Xuyang picked up the phone from the table. "I'll call the legal department now. I'll send you his number in a bit."
"Okay, I'll call Yueji and tell her right now." After saying that, she shook off his hand and went back to her room to call Gu Yueji.
Zhong Xuyang looked at his empty hands and whispered helplessly and affectionately, "You little ingrate, you're kicking me when I'm done with it."
When Zhong Xuyang finished his work and returned to the room in his electric wheelchair, he saw Xiao Yao sitting on the bed, holding a tablet and looking at something very seriously. He asked, "What are you looking at so seriously?"
Xiao Yao didn't even lift her eyelids. "I'm looking for relevant cases of construction site accidents to send to Yueji for reference."
She looked so serious, as if it were her own business.
Zhong Xuyang watched quietly. He liked Xiao Yao's qualities; she was never perfunctory towards her friends, and was both loyal and warm-hearted.
Xiao Yao noticed his gaze. "Why are you looking at me like that?"
Zhong Xuyang raised an eyebrow. "Whenever you're done with your work, you can help me take a bath."
Xiao Yao asked in surprise, "Can't you wash yourself?"
After Zhong Xuyang was discharged from the hospital, Xiao Yao moved in to take care of him because his leg and hand fractures hadn't healed. At first, he needed her help with bathing and using the toilet, but she went home for a couple of days ago and found he could take care of himself at home.
However, Zhong Xuyang's reason was, "That's different."
Xiao Yao asked innocently, "What's different?"
"You make my bath feel good, especially when you apply shower gel."
Immediately, the image of her bubble-covered hands wiping his entire body flashed into Xiao Yao's mind, and her face instantly turned red.
"Zhong Xuyang!"
Zhong Xuyang grinned mischievously, "I'm just telling the truth."
Xiao Yao got up angrily and pushed him to the bathroom door, saying, "From now on, you'll have to wash yourself. Something happened at Yueji's place, and I have to go back to H City tomorrow."
Zhong Xuyang guessed it too, and pulled her back, "That's why I wanted you to help me wash again, you didn't even have time for me afterwards."
He looked up at her, her pitiful appearance resembling that of a large dog.
Xiao Yao pinched his cheek, refusing to fall for his trick. "I know you have ulterior motives."
During the time I took care of him, I hugged him, kissed him, and touched him. Except for the last step, he did everything else without fail.
Instead of denying it, he acted aggrieved, saying, "Well, I didn't do anything, did I?"
Xiao Yao was so angry she laughed. "What else do you want to do?"
Zhong Xuyang pulled her between his legs, "Don't you know what I want to do?"
Xiao Yao knew that if it weren't for the fact that his legs and hands were wrapped in plaster and making things inconvenient, this man would have already taken advantage of her.
She ruffled his messy hair angrily, "What if I don't agree?"
Zhong Xuyang pulled her closer to him. "Why don't you agree?"
He sat with his face right up to her stomach, pressed his lips against her stomach and kissed her, asking in a hoarse voice, "Didn't I make you feel good?"
Xiao Yao suddenly felt a tingling sensation spread from her stomach, where he had kissed her, throughout her entire body. She hurriedly covered his mouth and pushed him away, saying, "Why do you say such things!"
Zhong Xuyang was pushed away only slightly, but he still held her, rubbing her waist as he asked, "Is there anything I can't say to you?"
His low, husky voice was like some kind of signal; he would do this whenever he felt aroused, and he knew that her waist was a sensitive area.
During this period, he would intentionally or unintentionally flirt with her, and it was impossible for Xiao Yao not to react. She had desire for him both physically and emotionally.
She was worried that he wasn't ready to do anything reckless, but since she was suddenly going back to H City tomorrow, she wanted to get closer to him.
There was nothing to be ashamed of, but I couldn't let him get his way so easily. "Show me you'll take a shower now. If you can shower properly by yourself, I'll agree."
Zhong Xuyang's expression was a mixture of surprise and excitement. "Really?"
Xiao Yao glanced meaningfully at his body, "Really?"
Zhong Xuyang laughed at her hooligan-like appearance. He raised an eyebrow, stood up with his wheelchair, slowly walked into the bathroom, and then took off his clothes one by one in front of Xiao Yao.
At first, Xiao Yao looked on with amusement, calmly watching Zhong Xuyang's clumsy but steady movements, thinking that he seemed to be able to take care of himself.
However, when he took off his last pair of underwear, stood up straight, and smiled meaningfully at her, Xiao Yao's gaze swept over a certain area where he had inexplicably become aroused, and she immediately looked away.
"Um, um, I'll go get you your pajamas." She turned and fled.
Zhong Xuyang called out with a smile from the bathroom, "No need to bring it, I'll wait for you in bed after I take a shower."
——
The next day, Xiao Yao woke up with a sore back and aching waist. When she opened her eyes, she found that the person next to her had gotten up at some point and was nowhere to be seen.
She sat up, rubbing her back, muttering complaints under her breath. Zhong Xuyang, who had just walked in, overheard her and laughed.
Why are you talking about me as soon as you wake up?
Xiao Yao was already unhappy because of her aching back, and seeing his refreshed smile made her even angrier. "You're different from others who can just lie down and enjoy yourself. You still have the energy to get up so early in the morning."
