"Huo Tingxiao, is your leg bothering you? Let me take a look."
After dinner, it was getting late. As autumn approaches, the days are short and the sky darkens quickly. The family chatted for a while before going back to their rooms to rest.
Seeing that Huo Tingxiao kept pressing his knee joints, Wen Xingyue quickly supported him with her hand.
Although Huo Tingxiao no longer needs crutches and walks slowly, he doesn't look any different from ordinary people, but his legs will hurt a little after walking for a long time.
"It's alright, you'll be fine after a while."
Huo Tingxiao's leg was a little sore, but it was nothing serious; he would be fine after some rest.
"Sit down, let me take a look at you. A massage will make you feel better."
Wen Xingyue pulled him to sit down on the edge of the bed, then squatted down in front of him, rolling up his trouser leg above his knee.
He grasped her slender calves with both hands and began to massage them.
"It's okay, I just need some rest. I don't need a massage. You must be tired after a long day. Go to bed and rest."
Huo Tingxiao wanted to stop her, but he just needed to rest.
"Let me give you a massage to make you feel better, otherwise your legs will be sore the next day."
Wen Xingyue didn't even lift her head as she focused on the massage.
[Huo Tingxiao will feel better after resting, but a massage will help him sleep more soundly at night and prevent him from feeling weak in his legs.]
Huo Tingxiao looked down at her. The little peach blossom spirit seemed carefree, but in reality, she was incredibly meticulous.
The room was quiet.
Only their soft breathing remained.
"How are you feeling? Is your leg still hurting?"
After massaging for a while, Wen Xingyue estimated that it was about time and looked up to ask him.
"Much better."
Huo Tingxiao was so focused on looking at her that he didn't really pay attention to his leg. He didn't take the slight pain to heart. He didn't care about this little bit of pain at all. He had suffered many injuries, both big and small, during missions in the past. Compared to those, this slight pain was negligible.
But her care made him feel like his heart was surrounded by gummy candies.
"It's good that you're feeling much better, Huo Tingxiao. You have to listen to me obediently. Once your leg is healed, you can walk, do, and run however you want."
Wen Xingyue clapped her hands, stood up, and patted his shoulder with a mature air.
"Is there a reward for being obedient?"
Huo Tingxiao chuckled.
They're acting like little adults now!
What reward do you want?
Wen Xingyue stood while Huo Tingxiao sat, yet the two were not much different. Meeting those smiling eyes, she felt happy too.
Don't hesitate to give Huo Tingxiao a reward.
"Can I have anything I want?"
Huo Tingxiao stared at her without blinking.
"I'll reward you with anything I can grant." Wen Xingyue nodded.
She was unaware of the impending danger.
Huo Tingxiao is good to me, so of course I have to be good to him in return. Besides, Huo Tingxiao's rewards are always the same two things: I can kiss him, or he can kiss me. It's not hard to find either.
Huo Tingxiao was quite satisfied.
She was still muttering to herself.
...Huo Tingxiao.
The next second, Wen Xingyue noticed that the room lights had gone out.
"Why aren't the lights on? Is there a power outage?"
Wen Xingyue stood there, trying to get into bed in the dark while calling out to Huo Tingxiao.
The windows are closed. It's already autumn, and it gets dark very early. Once the room lights are off, you can't see anything.
"I'll hold your hand."
Huo Tingxiao grabbed her hand and led her toward him.
Wen Xingyue cautiously approached him in the dark, her sense of direction poor at night, and she couldn't see anything clearly, making her feel uneasy.
"Thump—"
She tripped over something and fell right into Huo Tingxiao's arms.
"I'm...I'm sorry, I didn't hurt you, did I?"
Wen Xingyue frantically tried to get up by supporting Huo Tingxiao's body.
I wonder what he tripped over, and whether he hurt Huo Tingxiao?
"No...it's nothing."
The soft little hands groped around his body, and Huo Tingxiao let out a muffled groan, his voice becoming a little hoarse.
The next second, he decisively grabbed her hand.
"What's wrong? Did I hurt you? I don't know why the light went out."
As Wen Xingyue listened to that sexy, magnetic groan, she inexplicably felt the muscles on her hand burning.
The more anxious she became to get up, the more flustered she became.
Their bodies inexplicably grew hotter and hotter.
The air itself seemed to be getting hot.
Not knowing where Wen Xingyue pressed, Huo Tingxiao's arm veins bulged as he grabbed the hand that was causing trouble on his body.
Wen Xingyue felt the hand holding her was burning hot. She lay on Huo Tingxiao's body, too afraid to move. In the darkness, her face was burning hot.
"I...I have a bad sense of direction..." Wen Xingyue stammered as she explained.
It was pitch black, and she couldn't see anything. Wen Xingyue didn't even know where she had pressed her hand.
Huo Tingxiao took a deep breath and suddenly regretted turning off the light.
The skin on their hands, pressed together, seemed to be on fire.
My mouth and throat are dry.
"Yueyue... I've decided what reward I want."
A deep, husky voice filled the quiet room.
...
"Huo Tingxiao, I hate you."
The next day, Wen Xingyue buried her head in the blankets, ignoring Huo Tingxiao's gentle advances.
A sticky, slightly hoarse voice muffled through the blanket.
"But Little Moon enjoyed it last night, didn't she?"
Huo Tingxiao smiled.
"...It wasn't me who asked you to do it."
As soon as he mentioned what happened last night, Wen Xingyue's face turned red. She shrank further under the covers, covering herself up completely, almost shrinking into a snail.
How could he do that!
