Watching the cars drive away from the island in the middle of the lake, Ni Sitian leaned her head on Xu Tingchuan's shoulder, feeling a little tired.
Xu Tingchuan looked down at Ni Sitian and asked softly with concern, "Are you tired?"
"Mmm." Ni Sitian nodded, looked up at him, and hugged his arm, saying coquettishly, "Can you carry me back?"
Xu Tingchuan patted her head, squatted down, took her arm and put it around his neck, steadily supporting her legs as they walked along the hexagonal pebble path toward the house.
Ni Sitian had also drunk some wine that evening, and was a little sleepy. She felt very secure lying on Xu Tingchuan's back, so she closed her eyes not long after.
Xu Tingchuan carried her upstairs and gently placed her on the bed.
Ni Sitian wasn't in a deep sleep. She woke up immediately after being put down, looked at Xu Tingchuan with sleepy eyes, and mumbled, "I want to take a bubble bath."
She smelled strongly of alcohol and barbecue, and was sweating and looking a bit uncomfortable.
"Okay, I'll go run you a bath." Xu Tingchuan pinched her delicate little nose and went into the bathroom.
Ni Sitian slowly sat up, feeling stuffy, so she got up and went to the window to open it. Looking up, she saw a shooting star streak across the sky. She quickly closed her eyes, put her hands together, and made a wish.
She wanted a miracle to happen, she wanted to have a child with Xu Tingchuan, even just one.
Looking at Zhi Lan and Wen Nuan today, she felt genuinely envious.
When Xu Tingchuan came out and saw Ni Sitian's devout expression, he walked over and said with a faint smile, "Instead of making a wish upon a shooting star, why don't you make one for me?"
Ni Sitian opened her eyes, looked at Xu Tingchuan, and pursed her lips.
Indeed, he has been fulfilling all her wishes so far, and to her, he is more useful than any god.
But this matter...
"What's wrong?" Xu Tingchuan noticed the dejection in her eyes.
Ni Sitian quickly shook her head and said, "I'm going to take a shower."
"Mrs. Xu, you're kicking me while I'm down." Xu Tingchuan put his arm around Ni Sitian's waist from behind, pulling her back, and said with a low laugh, "I was the one who set the fire, aren't you going to invite me to come along?"
Ni Sitian blushed slightly and pretended to be fierce, saying, "If you want to come, then come. Why all the nonsense?"
Xu Tingchuan smiled, bent down and picked up Ni Sitian, carrying her into the bathroom.
The bathtub was very large. The two of them sat facing each other while soaking in the tub, the foam reaching up to their collarbones. They couldn't see anything underwater.
Ni Sitian's leg was pressed down on Xu Tingchuan's leg, and her toes playfully poked his abs.
Xu Tingchuan grabbed her slender ankle, and Ni Sitian pulled back, causing ripples in the water.
"What are you doing?" Ni Sitian didn't pull her hand back, and looked at Xu Tingchuan with a coquettish expression.
"Let me give you a massage." Xu Tingchuan pressed on Ni Sitian's calf, massaging the flesh of her calf.
"Are you pinching me?" Ni Sitian felt his hand moving higher and higher, so she grabbed his hand, pouted slightly, and said coquettishly, "Stop it, I'm so tired today."
"What do you think I'm going to do?" Xu Tingchuan used his other hand to scrub her with a bath sponge.
"Hmph." Ni Sitian splashed water at him.
Xu Tingchuan smiled, pulled her body over, turned her around so her back was to him, and then rubbed her back.
After a while, he handed the bath sponge to her and turned away.
Ni Sitian also turned around, holding a bath sponge and rubbing Xu Tingchuan's back, while massaging his shoulders and neck, and said obediently with a smile: "This is an extra service."
