"explain."
Qin Xi's tone left no room for doubt, and A Yu almost instantly forgot Lu Huai's subtle warning.
"Young Master caught a cold after taking a cold shower last night!"
Ayu had the expression of a prophet, which made Lu Huai want to throw him back into the Night Domain Forest for a few more months.
"A cold shower?" Qin Xi was completely confused. "Why take a cold shower in the middle of the night? Is this a New Year's Eve custom of the Lu family? I've never heard of it before."
Ayu shook his head: "I don't know about that. I guess only the young master would know."
Lu Huai gritted his teeth, let out a sigh of relief, and said to A Yu, "Get out!"
Only then did Ayu realize that he had revealed Lu Huai's secret, and he quickly fled.
Admittedly, he looked very proud and smug when he was on his way out, but he was also quite pathetic when he ran away.
Qin Xi turned to look at Lu Huai: "Why did you take a cold shower in the middle of the night? If it weren't for A Yu, I wouldn't have known about this."
"Ahem," Lu Huai coughed awkwardly twice, unsure how to smooth things over.
Qin Xi: "Hmm?"
Just as I was about to ask him more questions, I saw his eyes dart around, and he clutched his head, crying out, "Ouch, ouch!"
"Ouch, my head hurts so much," Lu Huai said, feigning annoyance.
Even knowing he was faking it, Qin Xi couldn't help but feel a pang in her heart. She frowned: "If you don't want to talk about it, then don't. You should get some rest."
Then he added, "You can't do that again in the future; taking a cold shower in winter is not advisable."
Lu Huai initially nodded, but pouted at the end.
As Qin Xi spoke, she tucked the blanket around him, when she suddenly felt her hand being held.
She looked up and saw him looking at her, saying earnestly, word by word, "A cold bath in winter is also acceptable, just like Lu Huai's love for Qin Xi."
Qin Xi was stunned, then lowered her head and laughed.
Seeing her shoulders shaking with laughter, Lu Huai frowned in confusion.
Did he say something wrong?
That's what he thought, and that's what he asked.
Qin Qi shook her head while smiling, her cheeks flushed red, and said, "N-nothing."
Lu Huai was extremely puzzled and tried to sit up, but Qin Xi pressed him back down.
"Don't get up, the blanket was finally put on you."
Lu Huai frowned, protesting, "Then what exactly are you laughing at?"
Qin Xi smiled and shook her head: "It's nothing."
Seeing that Qin Qi still refused to speak, Lu Huai narrowed his eyes, his gaze dangerous.
Seeing this, Qin Qi felt a sense of foreboding and was about to speak when Lu Huai interrupted her, saying, "Are you going to tell me or not? If you don't, I'll kiss you."
He looked like a thug, which left Qin Qi speechless.
Her face flushed red: "You... what nonsense are you talking about..."
"I don't care, if you don't tell me, I'll kiss you. Anyway, I'm not a good person." After saying these words, Lu Huai's pale face actually regained some color.
He's not just a bad person, he's downright a scoundrel.
Qin Xi thought to himself, "I'm cursing."
"Speak quickly!" Lu Huai squinted and started acting like a rascal.
Qin Qi hesitated, "It's nothing, it's just..."
Lu Huai said anxiously, "Speak quickly!"
She leaned closer to him, looked into his eyes, and smiled sweetly: "It's just that no one has ever said such a thing to me before." After all, she had never seen anyone so shameless and unbelievable.
Wouldn't he be the first one?
A sense of pride suddenly welled up in Lu Huai's heart.
Look, he's the first one.
He reached out and patted Qin Xi on the shoulder, looking like a close buddy: "Don't worry, with our relationship, I'll tell you as much as you want to hear!"
