Inside Lin Yang's house.
Lin Yang looked at the sweat on his body and was speechless.
It's unclear whether it was because the fire in the kang (heated brick bed) was burning too brightly, or because the original body was too weak.
He had only done three sets of squats when sweat was pouring down his face like water.
After taking a big gulp of water, Lin Yang was about to use a nearby stool to do deadlifts when he vaguely heard a woman's voice calling his name softly.
"Yangzi~~~~"
"Yangzi~~~~"
"Yoko~~~~ Open the door~~~~~"
He picked up the stool in his hand and walked to the front door with extreme vigilance, listening intently.
Unfortunately, there was no sound outside the gate leading to the central court, except for the incessant howling wind.
"Are you hallucinating?"
Lin Yang put down the stool in his hand and muttered something under his breath.
But the next moment, that faint female voice rang out again: "Yangzi, it's your Sister Qin, open the door."
Now he heard it clearly; the sound was coming from the doorway of the second bedroom.
He walked to the door with a hint of doubt and asked in a puzzled tone, "Sister Qin, what are you trying to do so late at night? Why don't you go through the main gate? And where is Jia Dongxu?"
This series of questions stumped Qin Huairu.
After glancing at Jia Zhangshi and finding that she had completely lain down, Qin Huairu truthfully said, "Yangzi, Dongxu went out to play. My mother-in-law asked me to come and talk to you about something."
Lin Yang didn't mind speculating about the people in the courtyard with the utmost malice.
Although Qin Huairu said that Jia Zhangshi had sent her to find her, who knew what kind of trouble awaited her?
But so what!
This is my own house. Even if something happens, everyone will trust me and not the Jia family.
Although the original courtyard house was often taken advantage of, it still had a good reputation!
"Wait a moment, I'll go get the key and open the door now."
As he spoke, Lin Yang walked to the top of the cabinet and retrieved the key to the door.
As soon as the door was opened, Qin Huairu immediately felt a wave of heat rushing towards her.
You should know that because of Jia Zhangshi's stinginess, her family even bought very little charcoal for heating the kang (a traditional heated brick bed).
The temperature at home is always kept at a comfortable level, unlike Lin Yang's house, which is always at a summer temperature.
While thinking about these things, Qin Huairu walked into the house and said with a sigh, "Yangzi, the heating in your house is really strong!"
After Qin Huairu came in, Lin Yang closed the door behind him.
Turning around, Lin Yang looked at Qin Huairu, who was completely covered up, and said to her with a slightly curious tone, "Sister Qin, you come to my house so late at night, aren't you afraid of what people will say?"
"What's there to be afraid of!"
Thinking about her mother-in-law's and her husband's attitudes, Qin Huairu actually relaxed.
She curled her lip and said, "My mother-in-law and my husband both agreed to my coming here! If anyone goesssips, my mother-in-law will tear their mouths apart!"
However, the moment she finished speaking, her cheeks suddenly flushed red.
I didn't notice when I came in, I was just marveling at how warm Lin Yang's room was, but now that I've calmed down a bit, I can see that Lin Yang's clothes are completely transparent because they're soaked with sweat.
Unlike her husband Jia Dongxu's dark skin, Qin Huairu immediately noticed Lin Yang's incredibly fair skin through his soaked shirt.
"Yangzi, what are you doing inside the house? Why are you sweating so much?" Even though she is already a mother of two.
However, this was the first time Qin Huairu had seen a male body other than her husband and child since she got married.
That feeling of shyness welled up in my heart all at once, but there was also a strange pleasure in it.
Therefore, she always looked down at her feet when she spoke.
And her face turned red.
Seeing Qin Huairu's expression, Lin Yang glanced down at his transparent undershirt and couldn't help but smile, saying, "Sister Qin, are you shy?"
Heaven have mercy on us.
When Lin Yang asked that question, he really didn't mean anything else; it was purely out of curiosity.
After all, in his mind, Qin Huairu was still the image of her in TV dramas, where she would drive around telling jokes with the middle-aged women in the factory.
Qin Huairu was already so shy, even though she was only wearing a shirt soaked with sweat.
How could this not pique Lin Yang's curiosity?
Upon hearing this, Qin Huairu immediately blushed and said, "Oh! Yangzi, people say you're honest, and you flirt with your sister Qin like this! What's the difference between you wearing these clothes and not wearing any? How can your sister Qin not be embarrassed!"
With that, she turned and prepared to leave.
But she hesitated to step out of the doorway, because she suddenly realized that if she went back like this, Jia Zhangshi would ask her if she had talked to Lin Yang about the house, and she would not be able to answer.
"Yangzi, Sister Qin really needs to talk to you. Why don't you go change your clothes?"
Qin Huairu didn't dare look at Lin Yang, and could only lower her head to look at her feet, pleadingly saying.
Lin Yang shrugged and said, "Sister Qin, how can I change my clothes if I don't wipe off all this sweat?"
"Then go and wipe it," Qin Huairu said casually.
However, she immediately said, "No, then I'll go back first..."
After all, a grown man is wiping his body with water at home; how can a married woman stay at home like that?
But as soon as she said she would go back and wait, she realized that if she went back first, Madam Jia would definitely ask why she had returned so quickly.
Could she be going to say that Lin Yang was soaking wet and that she was embarrassed to stay there, and instead suggest that Lin Yang go take a shower first?
Isn't this telling Jia Zhangshi that she saw Lin Yang's body?
Not to mention Jia Zhangshi's constant nagging, not to mention whether Jia Dongxu will physically assault her.
If Jia Dongxu were to be banished to the countryside because of this, then everything would be over.
Once she understood these issues, Qin Huairu changed her mind again, saying, "No, no, Yangzi, could you ask me to wait here while you change?"
But she regretted it as soon as she said it.
Because what does this sound like?!
That's absolutely shameless.
While others are wiping their bodies, what am I compared to them?
After a moment's thought, Lin Yang understood Qin Huairu's dilemma, but looking at Qin Huairu's blushing face, he found it quite amusing.
So she immediately smiled and agreed, "Sure, then please have Sister Qin fetch some water in a basin while I get a towel and clothes!"
Without giving Qin Huairu time to refuse, he turned and walked into the house.
Qin Huairu remained where she was, watching Lin Yang's retreating figure.
She wondered if Lin Yang was going to take advantage of her.
Then she remembered what Jia Dongxu had said about her being just a married country woman, and that no one wanted to take advantage of her.
She could even picture Lin Yang's skin beneath his clothes.
...
In short, a mix of thoughts welled up in my mind.
Finally, Qin Huairu stamped her foot, touched her flushed cheeks, and gritted her teeth, saying, "It's just fetching water! It's nothing!!"
