Volume 1 Chapter 90 Scheming Boy
After watching the sunrise, everyone walked down the mountain.
In the afternoon, I visited some local delicacies and attractions, bought some souvenirs for family and friends, and took the high-speed rail back to North City in the evening.
The two-day and one-night "Special Forces Tour" ended successfully.
Xu Jingmo and Du Ruo arrived home around nine o'clock in the evening.
The first thing Du Ruo did when he returned home was to take a bath.
Her body and mind had reached their limits and she was in desperate need of some relaxation.
I lit an aromatherapy candle, threw a rose-scented bubble ball into the bathtub, and then connected it to the Bluetooth speaker in the bathroom to play soft and soothing music.
She immersed her body in the warm bath, closed her eyes, and enjoyed the massage function of the bathtub.
After Xu Jingmo changed into his pajamas, he threw all the clothes they had taken off for this trip into the washing machine, packed his backpack, and came to Du Ruo's bedroom door. He knocked and asked loudly through the door: "Du Ruo, are you hungry? I plan to order some midnight snacks."
"What do you want to order?" Du Ruo's voice came from the bathroom, with a sense of relaxation and laziness.
Xu Jingmo: "What do you want to eat? How about barbecue?"
"Okay!" Du Ruo responded.
"Okay, don't soak for too long, it may cause low blood pressure." Xu Jingmo reminded gently.
"I know." Du Ruo responded perfunctorily and almost fell asleep in comfort.
Xu Jingmo ordered takeout using his mobile phone and then went into the secondary bathroom to take a shower.
When he came out after washing, Du Ruo had not come out yet.
He didn't know how long a girl normally took a bath, so he didn't take it seriously and picked up a set of competition questions on the coffee table and started working on them.
It was not until 30 minutes later when the barbecue takeout arrived that Du Ruo still did not come out of the room.
Xu Jingmo couldn't help but knock on the door again to urge, "Have you finished washing? I've prepared the barbecue, come out for a midnight snack."
There was no response from inside.
His heart tightened, he pushed open the bedroom door and knocked on the bathroom door, "Du Ruo?"
"Um……"
Hearing a faint sound coming from the bathroom, Xu Jingmo breathed a sigh of relief.
"Are you okay? You've been showering for almost 50 minutes, and you didn't answer when I called you just now."
Du Ruo woke up a little from his sleep and answered in a panic, "Ah, I'm coming out now."
"Okay, I'll wait for you outside." Xu Jingmo turned and left.
He turned around and walked to the bedroom door when he suddenly heard a scream from the bathroom. He turned back and asked, "What happened?"
Du Ruo hissed in pain, and it took him several seconds to recover. He replied, "It's okay. I felt dizzy when I got up, and I accidentally fell."
Xu Jingmo stood at the door, feeling awkward for a moment. It was not appropriate to go in, but he was still a little worried if he didn't go in, so he could only ask again: "Are you okay? Can you stand up? Put on your clothes first, and I'll carry you out."
Du Ruo responded: "It's okay, my thigh just hit the edge of the bathtub, I can still move, you go out and wait for me."
"Okay." Xu Jingmo agreed, and after leaving the room, he went straight to look through the medicine box. Finding there was no medicine for bruises and injuries, he placed another order for an emergency delivery.
After a few minutes, Du Ruo limped out, holding on to the wall.
Her hair was wrapped in a hair dryer. She looked at Xu Jingmo and asked shyly, "Xu Jingmo, can you help blow-dry my hair?"
She couldn't stand anymore and her thighs ached.
Xu Jingmo quickly stepped forward, gently picked her up by the waist, put her on the sofa, and asked concernedly: "Where did you get hit? Is it swollen?"
"It's not swollen here." Du Ruo leaned slightly and pointed at his left thigh. "It's just that it hurts a little when I move now. I guess I need to slow down for a while."
"If it's serious, we'll go to the hospital. If it's not serious, I'll give you some ice. I've already ordered some medicine. Apply it before going to bed and observe for a day." Xu Jingmo apologized with guilt in his eyes, "It's all my fault. I didn't call you in time, causing you to suffer from hypoxia and low blood pressure."
Du Ruo raised her hand and touched his head. "It's not your fault. Your bathtub massage was so comfortable, just like a real massage. I accidentally fell asleep."
"Grandpa Ning's medicine is really effective. I have been sleeping much better recently. I slept well on the top of the mountain last night. I didn't pick the environment at all."
"It's my fault for not taking good care of you." Xu Jingmo stood up to get the hair dryer, plugged it in, and gently blew her hair while saying, "Just tell me what to do."
Du Ruo smiled and said, "Then I want to eat ice cream."
Xu Jingmo flicked her head and said, "Do you want to go to heaven? Is your stomach ache gone? Just eat some ice cream."
Du Ruo: "I'm hurt and need an ice cream to comfort me."
Xu Jingmo said softly, "Just take a bite and taste it."
Du Ruo: "Half an ice cream cone."
Xu Jingmo: “Two.”
Du Ruo: "Three-quarters of an ice cream cone."
"Tsk, why are you still rising?"
Du Ruo: "Who told you not to let me eat to my heart's content yesterday? If I had eaten enough yesterday, I might not want to eat today. You said I could do whatever I wanted, but you still bargained with me. You owe me this."
Xu Jingmo muttered helplessly, "I owe you every day."
Du Ruo snorted proudly, "Yes, don't try to reason with a woman, especially a woman with a high IQ like me."
"Okay." Xu Jingmo chuckled, turned off the hair dryer, ruffled her fluffy hair, and teased: "Are you an adult? You're still a woman, at best you're just a little girl."
Du Ruo explained seriously: "The difference between women and girls is not just age, but also physical development characteristics, social experience, personality, mentality and cognition. Apart from my age, what else is wrong with me? I am well-informed, mature, and mentally stable. Some 30-year-old women may not be able to compare with me."
It would have been fine if she didn't mention it. As soon as she brought up the topic, Xu Jingmo couldn't help but think of her well-developed figure, which was indeed... not something that ordinary people could compare to.
He quickly shifted his attention, put the hair dryer back into the bathroom, and put the barbecue takeaway on the coffee table, saying, "Eat the barbecue first, and then I'll give you half an ice cream after you finish."
Du Ruo looked at him and said quietly, "Don't think that if I eat too much barbecue, I won't be able to eat ice cream. I will save some space for it."
Xu Jingmo choked and laughed: "What image do you think of me now? You miss me so much? I'm just afraid that you'll catch a cold."
Du Ruo picked up a skewer and said with a smile, "You are now... the image of a scheming boy."
Xu Jingmo raised his eyebrows and said nothing.
After dinner, he took a Coca-Cola from the refrigerator and gave it to her.
Du Ruo was very satisfied. She tore open the packaging and swung her little feet happily, feeling somewhat proud of her victory in this round.
Xu Jingmo was sitting next to her. After she opened the package, he suddenly reached out and snatched the Kawaii into his hands.
"It was agreed to be half a stick, but it didn't say which half." He smiled slyly, "I'll eat it first, and the rest is for you."
Before Du Ruo could grab it back, he quickly stood up and cleverly avoided her attempt.
Taking advantage of her weak legs, he neither ran nor dodged, but stood in front of her and slowly ate all the cream on the cookie, leaving her an egg roll wrapped with a pitiful amount of cream, and handed it to her. "Here, half a stick."
Du Ruo: (▼皿▼#)
I'm so angry, I want to kill someone!
