Sure enough, he came out of the shower.

His voice sounded as if it still had the heat from just taking a shower in the bathroom.

The room was suddenly filled with the smell of his shampoo and the same shower gel, like some kind of woody scent.

The heavy woody scent is steady and pleasant, but also a bit overbearing, quickly occupying the air.

After a while, all Lu Youxi smelled was the woody scent of Zhou Shuyan.

Before Lu Youxi could react, the hand that was holding the quilt was covered by Zhou Shuyan's palm.

"Give me the quilt, and go slowly." Zhou Shuyan said.

As he got closer, the scent from his body became stronger and more obvious. The back of Lu Youxi's hand was severely burned by his palm, and he trembled along with his hand.

Lu Youxi loosened his grip slightly, and the quilt was taken over by Zhou Shuyan.

Zhou Shuyan put the quilt on the bed temporarily and stretched out his hand to Lu Youxi, "I'll pick you up."

"The chair isn't high, so I got down by myself," Lu Youxi said.

Zhou Shuyan smiled helplessly, "It would be fine if I couldn't see it, but now that I see it, can I let you jump down alone? Give me your hand."

Lu Youxi stretched out his hand, but his hand trembled slightly uncontrollably.

When her fingertips landed on Zhou Shuyan's palm, she felt so burned as if she was electrocuted and jumped violently.

Zhou Shuyan wasn't in a much better condition at this time.

When they were in Hexing Village, after separating from the Lu family elders, without Mrs. Lu watching over them, Liu Yusu stopped letting Lu Youxi do the rough housework. At most, she would occasionally help her in the kitchen.

As he stopped working much, the calluses on Lu Youxi's hands gradually fell off.

When they arrived in the imperial capital, Lu Xiaohui discovered that Lu Youxi's hands were a bit rough and had some calluses that had not yet fallen off.

Then she knew that Lu Youxi was right, she really did a lot of work at home.

So when Lu Xiaohui and the other two applied hand cream, they would also apply some on Lu Youxi.

Lu Youxi was embarrassed to always use theirs, but when they applied it on her, she wouldn't let her refuse.

So Lu Youxi simply went and bought a tube of hand cream for himself, and the four of them applied it together.

Unconsciously, Lu Youxi's hands became more and more delicate.

There were no calluses on Lu Youxi's fingertips from previous work. Instead, after the calluses fell off, the more delicate skin underneath was exposed.

The moment her delicate fingertips touched Zhou Shuyan's palm, it seemed as if a current was transmitted from her fingertips to his palm.

Zhou Shuyan suddenly closed his palms and held Lu Youxi's hand tightly in his palms.

Lu Youxi only felt that his hand was completely wrapped by his hand, and his palm and the back of his hand were all burned by him.

Zhou Shuyan's throat moved, "Come."

Lu Youxi was stunned by his suddenly hoarse voice and his mind went blank.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Shuyan pulled her off the chair without any preparation.

Zhou Shuyan didn't expect Lu Youxi to be in a daze. He thought Lu Youxi should be ready to come down.

Fortunately, the chair was not high, and Zhou Shuyan noticed Lu Youxi's distraction in time.

As Lu Youxi came down, Zhou Shuyan quickly caught her.

He wrapped his arms tightly around Lu Youxi's waist, preventing Lu Youxi from getting bumped at all.

The height difference between them meant that Lu Youxi's feet were off the ground, and he was held in Zhou Shuyan's arms.

But immediately, Zhou Shuyan put her down.

Lu Youxi's feet were firmly on the floor, but he was still in Zhou Shuyan's arms.

The two of them were pressed tightly together at this moment, and when Zhou Shuyan lowered his head, the tip of his nose almost touched her hair.

If he moved down a little further, his lips would be on her forehead.

He had just finished taking a shower and his body was still a little damp, but Lu Youxi felt that he was particularly hot in his arms.

The woody scent now completely and domineeringly enveloped her, and her body was also stained with his scent.

I was originally worried that Lu Youxi would have to wait for a long time, so I wanted her to finish her bath earlier and relax earlier.

So Zhou Shuyan just wiped his hair casually with a towel and came out without blowing it dry.

At this time, the water droplets gradually gathered at the ends of his hair in front of his forehead, swaying on the ends of his hair.

As long as he moves a little bit, or if the water droplets gather a little more, they will fall.

Lu Youxi didn't even dare to look at Zhou Shuyan, so naturally he couldn't see such details.

When enough water droplets gathered, the water droplets on the ends of Zhou Shuyan's hair finally fell and dripped onto Lu Youxi's forehead.

When Lu Youxi was feeling extremely anxious, this drop of water hit his skin like frost, waking him up suddenly.

She subconsciously looked up and saw the water drops dangling on the ends of Zhou Shuyan's hair.

This time, Lu Youxi watched the second drop of water drip from the end of her hair and fall on her brow.

Along with the drops of water that had fallen on her forehead, they slid down from between her eyebrows.

Zhou Shuyan placed his thumb on her forehead, successfully blocking the water drops from falling.

He gently touched her brow with his thumb, wiping away the water droplets, leaving only a small wet mark on her forehead.

"Sorry." Zhou Shuyan's voice became even hoarser.

Lu Youxi didn't know what he was apologizing for.

Perhaps the doubt in her eyes was too obvious, Zhou Shuyan explained in a hoarse voice, "I pulled you down just now because I thought you were ready, but I didn't expect you were not ready."

"And..." Zhou Shuyan said in a low voice, "water drops fell on your forehead."

Lu Youxi was so nervous that he couldn't speak, and his hands subconsciously clutched his pajamas tightly.

I don't know how long it took, Zhou Shuyan said with a dry and hot mouth: "You... go take a shower?"

"Hmm..." Lu Youxi's voice trembled violently.

Zhou Shuyan's throat slid and he let go of Lu Youxi.

Lu Youxi hurriedly ran to the bathroom, and his legs became so weak that he almost sat on the ground.

Fortunately, she gritted her teeth and held on, otherwise it would have been so embarrassing if she really sat on the ground.

Lu Youxi ran into the bathroom, which still smelled of water vapor and shower gel left by Zhou Shuyan's shower.

Lu Youxi quickly closed the bathroom door and washed his face several times with cold water, but it didn't help.

She took a few deep breaths and forced herself to calm down.

I saw Zhou Shuyan’s toiletries were placed on the shelf above the sink.

Inside the shower, his toiletries and shower gel were placed on a shelf fixed to the wall.

"The preparations are quite complete." Lu Youxi muttered.

Thinking that Zhou Shuyan had already taken a bath here, Lu Youxi felt uncomfortable.

Lu Youxi was about to take a shower when she suddenly remembered that she didn't bring her pajamas in!
