She reached out and covered Huo Ye's eyes, but he didn't behave even with his eyes covered. His eyelashes fluttered in her palm, making her feel ticklish.
In a daze, Yun Lian turned off the shower head at an angle, and Huo Ye's pajamas, soaked, clung to his body, outlining his perfect muscle lines.
The dim light of the bathtub, the pervasive mist, and him, all soaking wet.
Just like last time, Yun Lian only wiped his back. The first time, she didn't even wipe his back clean, but instead got him all wet.
Huo Ye chuckled softly.
"Stepmother, why are your hands shaking?"
Huo Ye slowly approached Yun Lian.
Yun Lian reached out to resist, but he deliberately rubbed his hand against her palm. Instantly, Yun Lian felt as if she were being burned and quickly withdrew her hand.
"Huo Ye, don't forget what you called me."
It's simply the opposite of Tiangang!
Huo Ye noticed that the tips of her ears were red, and for the first time felt that he had the upper hand.
It turns out she was afraid of being called that.
"Is there a problem with calling her stepmother?"
He inherited all of the old man's estate, and his stepmother should also be included in the estate.
Yun Lian was forced against the wall by him, and just as her head was about to hit the wall, a pair of warm, large hands appeared behind her head.
Yun Lian clutched her chest and looked up.
I almost lost control.
This guy is too good at it; he almost made her forget how she was supposed to act.
"Huo Ye, stop fooling around... I'll quickly wipe your back, I need to go back to sleep, I'm so sleepy."
Huo Ye leaned close to Yun Lian's ear, his nose lightly touching her earlobe before quickly pulling away, as if it were an accident.
Yun Lian felt as if she had been struck by an electric current, her whole body tingling and numb.
Huo Ye breathed softly into her ear.
"How come I never noticed you were such a sleepyhead before? You've been sleeping all day and you're still not full?"
Song Zhu brought her to his side, so if he didn't do anything, wouldn't he be letting him down?
Yun Lian recalled the absurdity of the day, and a surge of heat rushed to her head.
Her face flushed red, she didn't dare to look Huo Ye in the eye, and pushed him away.
"It's because I stayed up late the night before that I'm sleepy during the day. If I go to bed early tonight, I'll be energetic tomorrow."
Yun Lian gradually convinced herself and became more confident.
Only later did they realize that there was a showerhead on the ground, and the water spraying from it was like rain, soaking the two of them completely.
Yun Lian turned off the shower and felt an urge to rush out the door.
Today, Huo Ye is like a bewitching enchantress, always trying to seduce people.
Just then, there was a knock on the bathroom door.
"Brother, I'm back. Have you seen stepmother?"
Yun Lian, like a frightened bird, immediately hid by the door.
Huo Ye was amused by her guilty look and walked step by step toward the door.
Yun Lian's heart was pounding in her throat with nervousness. She bit her lip tightly and gestured to Huo Ye not to open the door.
Huo Ye reached out and touched the doorknob. When Yun Lian reached out to slap his hand, he pulled her into his arms.
Yun Lian angrily bit his chest.
Huo Ye hissed softly and pressed her head forcefully into his arms.
She coughed lightly and called out towards the door, "She might be busy. You should rest first. If you need anything, talk to her tomorrow."
Huo Xi stood outside the door, looking completely bewildered.
"Okay, I also wanted to say that I brought her a gift. Don't tell her I'm back; I want to give her a surprise."
Yun Lian clasped her hands to her chest, looked up at Huo Ye, her eyes full of anticipation.
Said in a low voice.
"Gifts, gifts..."
Huo Ye flicked Yun Lian's forehead lightly, then looked down at her clothes, which were soaked and clung to her body.
The doting voice carried a warning.
“If you want him to see you in this disheveled state, then go ahead and ask for your gift.”
Yun Lian followed his gaze and looked down at her chest.
She raised her hand and slapped him across the face.
Enraged and embarrassed, he yelled, "You scoundrel!"
Huo Ye grabbed her hand as she was about to slap him a second time.
"Yes, I'm a little thug trained by a big thug, stepmother, you won't forget... Waaah..."
Before Huo Ye could finish speaking, Yun Lian suddenly covered his mouth.
"Huo Ye, you said you'd pretend it never happened, but now you're bringing it up again? Do you want to get beaten up?"
Huo Ye didn't make a fuss when his mouth was covered; instead, his eyes lit up with a smile as he secretly kissed her palm.
Yun Lian was afraid that he would make strange noises that Huo Xi outside the door would hear.
With her other hand, she pinched his face as a warning.
Yun Lian only let go of Huo Xi's hand after he had been waiting outside the door in vain and Huo Xi's footsteps had gone far away.
Like a thief, he opened the door and peered outside.
She couldn't understand what was wrong with Huo Ye. Even though his bedroom had its own bathroom, he always insisted on going to the shower room at the bottom of the stairs to wipe himself down.
I've only wiped it for him twice.
I was hit by someone both times.
Yun Lian turned around and glared at Huo Ye.
Huo Ye raised his chin, tilted his head back, and chuckled softly.
"If it's you who hits me, I'd be more than happy to."
Yun Lian wanted to hit him.
But I'm also afraid he'll be happy.
She bit her back teeth lightly and tiptoed back to her room.
Unexpectedly, not long after I changed my clothes and lay down,
Huo Ye called her again.
"Stepmother, you haven't changed my dressing yet today."
Yun Lian said fiercely.
"Huo Xi is back, tell him to change it for you."
Huo Ye, however, played the victim on the other end of the phone: "I tried calling him, but he ignored me. Stepmother, you're all I have left."
Even though she knew he was faking it, Yun Lian still went over.
The strategy value, which had been stuck at 92, has finally increased again.
Yun Lian was prepared to beat him up if he caused any more trouble.
Surprisingly, Huo Ye obediently let her apply the medicine, although he occasionally made a strange noise, but everything was fine.
