The water temperature was just right, not too hot, but warm enough.
The clear hot water enveloped Lin Yang's reddened feet, relieving her fatigue.
"Is the water temperature suitable?" Xu Chengzhi didn't mind at all. He rolled up his sleeves, reached into the water again, and massaged the soles of her feet.
"It's just right, it's just right, oh, it tickles... it tickles!" Lin Yang couldn't help but splash her feet in the water.
Water splashed everywhere, soaking Xu Chengzhi.
"I...I'm sorry." Lin Yang suppressed the laughter that was about to erupt from the pressure point on the sole of her foot, her leg trembling slightly, and apologized to Xu Chengzhi with a look of remorse.
"It's okay, we'll take it off anyway, whether it's wet or not." Xu Chengzhi didn't mind at all. He avoided Lin Yang's ticklish spots with his fingertips and started massaging her gently again. "You're really ticklish, Yangyang. You're ticklish on your waist and on the soles of your feet."
Xu Chengzhi was making fun of her sensitivity.
But Lin Yang's attention was completely drawn to Xu Chengzhi's words.
Do I have to take everything off later?
Wait, wait, wait!
That's a dangerous statement!
Lin Yang struggled a couple of times, managing to free her foot from Xu Chengzhi's grasp. She swallowed nervously, "Haha... um, I forgot to tell you, how about we sleep in separate rooms tonight?"
As she spoke, her voice grew softer and softer, and her confidence waned.
That's true, what couple sleeps in separate rooms on their wedding night?
"Yangyang." Xu Chengzhi picked up the foot towel from his knees and carefully wiped the water off Lin Yang's feet. "What are you afraid of?"
"I...I didn't, I...I just...I just..." Lin Yang stammered nervously, "Ah! I just found out that my aunt came to visit me!"
This is the second time Lin Yang has used this reason.
The first time was to Mr. Ex, and the second time was to Xu Chengzhi.
I wonder if Xu Chengzhi will be as perverted as Mr. Ex, remembering even her exact dates.
"Does your stomach hurt? Do you want some brown sugar water?" Xu Chengzhi didn't expose Lin Yang's lie, but instead asked her about her health in a considerate way.
"Ah...hiss...a little." If you're going to put on an act, you have to go all the way. Lin Yang started clutching her stomach, her brows furrowing in discomfort.
After wiping Lin Yang's wet feet, Xu Chengzhi got up and poured out the foot bath water.
He went out of the room and fiddled with things for a long time.
They actually prepared a bowl of brown sugar water for her and brought it in.
"Drink it, it'll make you feel better." Xu Chengzhi blew on the brown sugar water in the bowl before handing it to Lin Yang, who was still clutching her stomach and pretending to be in pain.
"Okay, thank you." Lin Yang slowly propped herself up.
For some reason, she felt a little guilty.
Xu Chengzhi actually believed her unconditionally, without even a hint of doubt?
There were also things like helping her take off her shoes, massaging her feet, and soaking her feet. These were things that Xu Chengzhi, who never lifted a finger, should be doing.
Under Xu Chengzhi's watchful gaze, Lin Yang had no choice but to bury her head and finish the bowl of brown sugar water.
It's too sweet. To be honest, she doesn't like brown sugar water.
It's so sweet it's sickening.
She rarely drinks this stuff because she never experiences menstrual cramps.
"Are you feeling better?" Xu Chengzhi asked, taking the empty bowl.
"Mm." Lin Yang nodded in a muffled voice.
"Well... I'll be going now. Take good care of yourself and get some rest." Xu Chengzhi took a blanket from the wardrobe and started to leave.
"Boom—" Outside the French windows, flashes of lightning streaked across the sky, followed by muffled claps of thunder.
The sky was clear and blue during the day, but the weather changed unexpectedly at night.
Upon hearing the thunder, Xu Chengzhi, who was holding the handle of the door, trembled.
"Don't go, stay here." Lin Yang noticed Xu Chengzhi's subtle actions and tried to persuade him to stay.
After all, she still remembered that dream; Xu Chengzhi was most afraid of thunder.
