Chapter 32 Chapter 32 Gu Yanzhou felt that he was really...
Pushing aside the hands of the people surrounding him, Song Siyun got down from the side of the bed and challenged with a smile: "Even if I dare, do you dare to watch, sir?"
After waiting for a long time without receiving a response, she walked around the screen, reached out to test the water temperature, and then pulled the loose belt around her waist.
It seemed as if he was completely unaware that there was someone behind him, and was only concerned with taking a comfortable bath.
The robe made a dull sound as it fell to the ground. Gu Yanzhou instinctively turned his head and the girl's fair shoulders came into view amidst the fluttering gauze curtains. The white was so dazzling and scorching.
He quickly looked away after just one glance, and hid behind the screen as if being chased by a private wolfhound.
I don't know how long it took, but the sound of the water stopped. The girl called him timidly, "Gu Yanzhou."
"Um?"
After confirming that he was there, Song Siyun leaned against the edge of the bathtub and asked in a low voice: "Can you help me wash my hair?"
"My hair is too long, I can't wash it..."
There was silence for a long time before a voice was heard, "Ah Yun, you are bathing."
"Yes." This is an obvious fact. Song Siyun didn't understand why he asked this.
From afar, I could almost hear a sigh. The man spoke again, his tone both compromising and helpless: "I am, after all, a young and strong man."
He deliberately emphasized the four words "strong man", and she realized his implication almost instantly.
After a moment of silence, he hunched his shoulders and looked around, "I can't call you Qing Feng Ling Feng..."
"I'll do it!" As soon as she finished speaking, the man's voice followed her tail, and the sudden rise in sharpness scared her.
Song Siyun thought he was just shy and grumbled with a pout: "Alright, alright, what are you afraid of? I'm not afraid even though I'm a woman. Don't worry, I'll wear underwear and won't let you take advantage of me."
She did what she said, and after saying that, she pulled up the undergarment that was hanging aside and put it on.
The underwear is made of excellent material and does not absorb water, it just sways from side to side with the water surface.
After a while, footsteps were heard behind me.
From far to near, it stopped at the edge of the bathtub.
Song Siyun turned around, folded his arms and supported his head, looking at the newcomer with interest, and jokingly said, "Master Gu, do you not believe me?"
The man had a stern face and groped his way closer with his hands, his eyes covered by a white ribbon.
Song Siyun recognized it at a glance. This was the hairband she had bought at the door during the day, and she planned to use it to tie her hair tomorrow.
"Borrow it." The brief silence was enough for him to guess what was in the mind of the person before him. He lowered his eyes, touched the headband covering his eyes, and explained gently. He squatted down again, groping his hands to reach into his hair. "This is good for both you and me."
"Yes." Song Siyun sneered, and feeling rather bored, he took his hand that was looking for a place to hide and placed it on his head. "Master Gu is right. After all, you and I are just in name only, so it's better to avoid suspicion."
After saying that, she lost interest and just closed her eyes and let him serve her.
Perhaps because he couldn't see clearly with his eyes covered, the man's hands could never find the right position, and the thin calluses on his fingertips scratched her back and hurt.
Even if Song Siyun didn't have eyes behind her back, she would have blushed without knowing it.
She endured it several times, but couldn't help it when it scratched her again. She turned around to ask him to be more careful, but when she saw the man's brows furrowed because he was not seeing anything, she swallowed it back quietly.
He didn't do it on purpose. It was inevitable that he would touch it accidentally when he couldn't see, not to mention that he was washing so carefully.
Song Siyun turned around silently and found an excuse for him.
She didn't know that the bathtub was filled with thick mist, and her pure white hairband had already been soaked, just like her underwear, which was better than nothing.
Gu Yanzhou didn't expect this to happen. At this moment, he was hiding behind his headband, not knowing what to do.
A gentleman should not look at anything inappropriate, but when he was washing her hair, he couldn't help but look up, and as his eyelashes moved, he could always catch a glimpse of the beautiful spring scenery that was not revealed.
Gu Yanzhou felt that he was truly a scoundrel and pervert. Instead of reminding her of this situation, he pretended to be fine with a shameless face.
She was truly restless, and even when she lay flat on her stomach, her back twitched, and layers of fluid flowed down her neck, hidden within the hazy water of the tub. If it were just that, she would twist around.
A girl of sixteen or seventeen, pampered at home with the finest food and drink, had developed a graceful and soft figure. She turned with considerable force, and her undergarments, stained by layers of moisture, clung tightly to her. As she moved, her body trembled, and her pale skin dazzled the eyes.
A surge of heat surged from my waist! My abdomen! My eyes and eyebrows felt dry, and my palms felt like they were on fire. It melted as soon as it touched water, but it stuck to my palms and I couldn't shake it off.
Everything was a feeling he had never experienced before.
Gu Yanzhou felt that he might be a vulgar person.
Otherwise, how could the jokes told by the soldiers at night be reflected so clearly on him?
The man's sword-like eyebrows were twisted into a knot, and he closed his eyes slightly, silently chanting the Heart Cleansing Mantra.
Fortunately, this ordeal passed quickly.
As the last scoop of boiling water fell into his hands, Gu Yanzhou lifted her hair and squeezed the water, then wrapped it with a thick towel and breathed a sigh of relief, "It's done."
"Okay?" The person in front of him responded happily and was about to turn back. Fortunately, he was quick to press her shoulder and stop her from turning back.
"Come out quickly, I also want to take a shower."
After saying that, she opened the veil and turned to go out first. She walked quickly to the table and drank two cups of cold tea in one breath before she suppressed the heat in her chest. She supported herself on the table with one hand and took off the hairband covering her eyes.
He stared blankly at the table, not knowing what he was thinking. After a while, he glanced up in regret, slumped down in the chair in frustration, and rubbed his temples with a headache.
In the bathtub, Song Siyun only realized when she stood up that although she was wearing underwear, it was no different from being naked!
I quietly raised my eyes and glanced at the man sitting at the round table, who was rubbing his brows tiredly but looked normal...
Gu Yanzhou calls himself a gentleman, and he covered his headband, so he should... not have seen it, right?
Song Siyun wiped the water stains from his body and made careful guesses. However, he was truly unsure. When he came out, he couldn't help but look around suspiciously. He almost walked along the screen to sit in front of the dressing table.
After a while, someone came in to change the water. Song Siyun sat in front of her dressing table, rubbing her hair intermittently, but her eyes were always fixed on the man sitting at the table, calmly drinking tea.
Look at how calm he is in his every move, without a trace of guilt.
It was not until the man stood up and took off his clothes that Song Siyun withdrew his gaze, felt relieved, and believed the guess that he had not seen.
The sound of running water gradually rose in the room. Perhaps out of empathy, she asked while drying her hair, "Would you like me to wash your hair?"
There was silence for a long time before a voice slowly rang out: "Thank you."
The period of hesitation was probably a time of confusion.
Song Siyun thought.
After all, as a gentleman who keeps himself clean, he will definitely keep himself chaste for his beloved.
After a moment of silence, she said in a soothing voice, "Don't worry, I will cover my eyes too."
When he finally stood up, he asked again, "Where did you put the hairband that covered your eyes just now?"
"Lost!" This time the response was quick and urgent, with a slightly higher voice. Song Siyun was a little puzzled. After a while, he heard the person inside say, "Just come in, I trust you."
"Don't worry, I am trustworthy," Song Siyun assured with her chin raised.
Her eyelashes were drooping, and she stared at the ground. Only when she squatted down behind the man did she raise her eyes slightly to find her position. She gently gathered her hair with one hand and scooped water with the other to moisten her hair. Once it was soaked, she used the soap on the other side to wash it.
In fact, at this point, she already felt a little regretful.
She had never waited on anyone before, having always been the one to wait on her. She had no idea washing hair could be so tiring. After a while, she felt her calves ache and her feet go numb. But the place was narrow, and the ground was slippery with condensation, so she couldn't move. She just quietly twisted her ankles to relieve the pain.
Perhaps he felt even more tired when he didn't speak. As he put down his soap and rubbed his hair, Song Siyun slowly started the conversation: "Didn't they say that Minister Li and his wife, Princess Jining, went to deal with the Yunqu flood this time? Why can't I see her today?"
"Perhaps she's fallen ill again." Gu Yanzhou closed his eyes and explained softly, "Princess Jining fell ill when she gave birth to Li Yuruan, and has been bedridden and taking medicine all year round. She's shown little improvement this time, perhaps because of the bumpy journey, she fell ill again when she arrived at Yunqu."
"Oh." I was just looking for a casual conversation to kill time, but his detailed explanation made me feel confused.
There were so few words to say to each other that they remained silent for a long time before finding another one: "You said Feng Yichen was smuggling tribute tea and sending it to foreign lands. Are the customs officers guarding the Yunqu Channel so incompetent that they didn't notice anything?"
In the mist, the man opened his eyes, as if considering whether he should tell her. After a while, he spoke in a deep voice, "Your Majesty has also thought of what you can think of, so he sent me to investigate personally."
"You told me such a confidential matter so casually?" Song Siyun was stunned. He grabbed his shoulder and leaned forward, a little worried that he would be silenced.
The man in front of her smiled slightly, lowered his eyes to stare at the man beside him whose jaw dropped in surprise, then slowly raised his hand to pick it up for her, exhaling softly, "You and I are one as husband and wife, there should be no secrets."
"You said that, remember?"
Song Siyun fell silent, shrank back with a wry smile, and did not respond.
She never thought that one day she would be so choked up by her own words that she couldn't utter a single word.
Feeling frustrated, I was naturally distracted. I washed my hair perfunctorily, half-heartedly.
He even moved his hands up to whatever he touched, until he heard a muffled groan in his ear and realized that he was rubbing his scalp with the rough back towel.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry."
I hurriedly tried to pull it, but the rough scarf had already been entangled with the man's long hair, and I couldn't tell it apart. If I tried to pull it hard, I would probably peel off his scalp.
After a moment of silence, he quickly leaned closer, carefully trying to undo the sin he had committed.
The man was good-tempered. He just leaned there and let her toss him around for a long time without saying a word.
It wasn't until he felt something strange in his neck that he couldn't help but cough lightly to remind himself.
Before he could open his mouth, the girl above him interrupted him impatiently and told him not to move.
Gu Yanzhou was silent for a moment, shrinking as far as possible to avoid the attack. The man kept pestering him, and he took half a step away, only to be pulled back by the shoulder.
Closer.
The girl's chest was pressed against her neck, rubbing up and down as she raised her hand, but she was unaware of it and kept reaching forward to touch his hair near his forehead.
That familiar feeling came again.
A fire erupted from the center, spreading to his limbs. The moisture in his body seemed to evaporate, leaving only the sound of the girl's breath above him. It should have been light, but it felt heavy and piercing to his ears, making every part of him feel a burning sensation. Every part of his body was clamoring with dissatisfaction, urging him to turn around, pushing him to find the source of everything, tempting him to ask her to take responsibility.
He closed his eyes tightly, suppressing the evil in his heart. Gu Yanzhou slowly turned his eyes and secretly peeked at the corner where the girl couldn't see...
