Chapter 90 Guagua "Be good, close your eyes."
"tomorrow?"
In the Nie family's main hall, Xiang Yao repeated with eyes wide open. Her damp hair draped across her cheeks, accentuating her flawless, translucent skin.
Nie Baichuan's gaze lingered on the fair cheek for a moment, and he stroked it with his fingers, resisting the urge to reach out and brush away the strands of hair.
He nodded. "Yeah, what do you think?"
Xiang Yao stammered, "Is it, is it a bit too fast?"
Yes, she had indeed taken the initiative to propose marriage, but she hadn't expected the man in front of her to be so quick to act. He said he would get the marriage certificate right away? This really caught her off guard...
Nie Baichuan leaned forward slightly, moving closer to Xiang Yao, causing her to lean back hurriedly. "Quick?"
Xiang Yao nodded slowly, then was momentarily captivated by the man's approaching beauty. His scorching breath was so close that it made her thirsty. "Uh, it seems, it seems that it might work."
"Oh."
A meaningless chuckle sounded in my ears.
Xiang Yao blinked and felt her heart beating violently.
Damn! Beauty can lead to misfortune! Beauty can lead to misfortune!
But the man in front of me, you know what, is so damn good-looking.
This was the first time Xiang Yao had seen Nie Baichuan at such a close distance. His profile was right next to her, only a fist's distance away.
After observing him this way, I feel that this person is not only good-looking from a distance, but also has perfectly proportioned facial features and amazingly good skin when viewed up close.
Thinking of the small red pimple that had appeared on her forehead a few days ago, if it weren't for the wrong occasion and atmosphere, Xiang Yao would have wanted to humbly ask Nie Baichuan how he managed to maintain his skin like this.
But, hehe, she is good-looking, and Nie Baichuan is also good-looking. When you think about it this way, they both deserve to get married.
Thinking of this inexplicably, Xiang Yaoqing's ears couldn't help but turn red. For a moment, she felt that the hot feeling coming from the other person became even stronger.
Nie Baichuan resumed his previous upright sitting posture and said, "Then it's settled."
Xiang Yao opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but she saw him stand up and go to the kitchen to pour water, so she swallowed what she wanted to say.
She rested her chin on her hand and began to review what happened today.
She shouldn't have been so arrogant as to think that after what happened yesterday, the Xiang family wouldn't force her anymore.
How could she let her guard down when faced with someone like Zhang Juhua who only makes money but never spends it?
But this was just a thought, and she didn't blame herself.
She had no experience in preventing bad people from doing bad things, and she had never thought that she would actually experience such forced buying and selling. It was not her fault.
However, there is no such thing as a thief who steals for a thousand days. If she wants to avoid the Xiang family's behavior, she has only one way to go for the time being, and that is to leave the Xiang family.
To leave the Xiang family and marry Nie Baichuan is almost the best option.
Marrying someone I love and leaving the Xiang family I hate, well, isn't this killing two birds with one stone...
"Drink some hot water."
As a magnetic voice sounded, a cup of steaming water was handed to Xiang Yao. He took it and said, "Thank you."
"What are you thinking about?" Nie Baichuan also brought a glass of water and asked.
When he just came in, he saw Xiang Yao frowning slightly, obviously thinking about something unhappy.
Xiang Yao took a sip of hot water from the cup. She felt a sense of relief all over her body. She smiled and said, "Why am I not so powerful that I can still encounter such a thing?"
Nie Baichuan thought for a moment and said, "It's not that you're not capable, it's that some people have no bottom line."
Xiang Yao nodded: "Indeed."
She tilted her head and asked, "So you are a person with a bottom line?"
Speaking of which, Nie Baichuan is the ultimate villain in the original book. As a villain, his bottom line should be relatively low, right?
Nie Baichuan thought for a moment and said, "I can only say that I have a clear bottom line in the past and now. I don't know what will happen in the future, so I can't guarantee anything."
Xiang Yao raised his eyebrows and gave a rather serious answer.
She thought about her answer to this question and finally concluded that her bottom line should be quite high. After all, she grew up under the red flag and received an education that was all-rounded in moral, intellectual, physical, aesthetic and labor development.
It's really difficult to ask her to do something that has no bottom line.
Xiang Yao wondered, if she really married Nie Baichuan, would it mean that their fates would diverge from what was described in the original book?
Speaking of which, she has not yet dealt with the male and female protagonists in the original book, and she doesn't know what the entanglement between Xiang Xiuxiu and those two is.
Should she find some time to observe carefully?
While she was lost in thought, Nie Baichuan suddenly squatted down in front of her. Xiang Yao was wondering what he was doing when she saw him gently lift up her wide trouser legs.
Xiang Yao shrank back reflexively, but her ankle was gently grasped by the other party.
"My ankle is pretty swollen."
Nie Baichuan reached out and touched it lightly, and heard Xiang Yao let out a hissing sound as if he was gasping for air.
He let go of her hand and stood up again: "There's a bottle of medicated oil at home for treating bruises and injuries. Wait a minute, I'll get it."
Xiang Yao looked at her ankle and said nonchalantly, "No need, it's nothing serious. It will heal naturally in a few days."
Nie Baichuan glanced at her, his eyes calm but with a hint of disapproval: "You don't take care of your body anymore."
After saying that, he turned around and went to the room to get something, obviously not intending to accept Xiang Yao's opinion.
Soon Nie Baichuan came out again, holding a porcelain bottle in his hand.
He sat down, moved the stool closer, bent down and put Xiang Yao's legs on his legs.
"Don't move." Noticing the other party's slight struggle, he used a little force to hold it tightly and said.
Xiang Yao pouted, feeling a little uncomfortable, but still obediently stopped moving.
Well, she is about to get married with the other party, so it seems unnecessary to be so hesitant now.
Nie Baichuan is a very considerate person.
Xiang Yao leaned back slightly because of this movement, and because she anticipated that her ankle would be very painful, she couldn't help but close her eyes tightly.
Immediately afterwards, I felt a coolness slowly approaching and touching my ankle. A slightly rough palm with moist medicated oil pressed against my skin, circling around that area lightly and slowly, and my ankle felt instantly cool.
Xiang Yao breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that with this strength, it didn't hurt at all, but was very comfortable instead. Then she immediately felt the other party's strength slowly increasing, which made her gasp again.
"Does it hurt?"
Nie Baichuan didn't stop moving, but his tone was full of concern.
Xiang Yao pursed her lips, wanting to say it didn't hurt, but for some reason, what came out of her mouth was: "It hurts..."
It was very painful, and she gritted her teeth, trying her best to endure it. But the moment she felt the concern in Nie Baichuan's words, she didn't want to endure it anymore.
The grievances suffered several times in a row finally collapsed in this trembling cry of "pain". Tears filled her eyes for a long time, and then flowed down her cheeks.
"Just bear with it, it will be fine soon."
Nie Baichuan's strength in his hands decreased again. He rubbed her ankle as gently as possible. No matter how white her skin was, he had no intention of looking at it at the moment. He just wanted to rub the medicine in as quickly as possible so that she could stop crying.
He used to not care much about women's tears. No matter if she stopped him on the road and boldly said she wanted to elevate their revolutionary friendship, or if she pretended to fall and shyly asked him to help her up, he would always ignore her tears and refuse her bluntly and directly.
But at this moment, watching Xiang Yao's tears dripping, he felt as if the soft spot in his heart was pricked by a needle, and it hurt in waves.
Xiang Yao had no idea what he was thinking. At the moment, she was feeling aggrieved and sobbing as she spoke her heart out.
"I don't understand why these people would marry a living person to a man they all know is a scumbag just for a little betrothal gift and a house."
"I had thought we could all get along peacefully, but I really underestimated the evil of human nature. I was so stupid to think I could control them."
"I should have known from the moment they drove my mother away that these people, with the exception of a few, are heartless and only care about their own interests."
Xiang Yao raised her hand to wipe her eyes and said fiercely, "Why...why did I come here? I'm so annoyed!"
Nie Baichuan paused slightly while rubbing his ankle.
Wear it here?
He suppressed the darkness in his eyes and continued with his movements, not letting the still sad people notice that something was wrong with him at that moment.
After a while, Nie Baichuan gently pulled down Xiang Yao's trouser legs and put her legs down: "Okay, it will definitely still hurt in the next two days, so don't put too much pressure on it."
Xiang Yao nodded: "Okay."
She looked at Nie Baichuan's expression and suddenly felt a little guilty.
Although her proposal of marriage was sincere, she was also taking advantage of the other party to some extent. However, Nie Baichuan actually agreed. Not only did he agree, he was also so good to her.
"Nie Baichuan, is it because you feel sorry for me and want to be a good person that you agreed to marry me..." she asked hesitantly.
Nie Baichuan raised his eyebrows slightly, looking at Xiang Yao with a hint of smile in his eyes. Seeing that Xiang Yao was indeed feeling uneasy, he asked back, "Do you think I am that kind of person, huh?"
Xiang Yao sniffed and shook her head: "You are not."
Nie Baichuan: "Well, that's it."
"But," Xiang Yao hiccuped and said weakly, "but you agreed too quickly. I don't know why."
Nie Baichuan was so angry that he almost laughed when he heard this. They were about to get married, and she said she didn't know why she agreed so quickly.
He said nothing, but bent down and put one hand on the wall behind her.
A shadow covered Xiang Yao, causing her to lick her lips and become nervous.
"Nie Bai—uh—"
Before she could finish her three-character name, Xiang Yao's lips were pressed against another pair of slightly cold lips.
She suddenly opened her eyes wide in disbelief, and tried to move her head back, but a hand came up and placed it on the back of her head, slightly controlling the force of the push forward, leaving her no chance to escape.
Their lips parted slightly, rubbing against each other gently, and a hoarse and seductive voice rang out: "Be good, close your eyes."
Xiang Yao closed his eyes.
After losing her sight, her sense of touch and hearing became extremely sensitive.
The rain crackled against the tiles on the roof and the branches of the trees outside the house, while the lips pressing against hers were soft yet powerful.
The coldness gradually gave way to the heat, a blush spread across her cheeks. In the overwhelming rain, no one knew that an extremely intimate touch was taking place...
