Chapter 177: Do Not Look Rudely
Chapter 177: Do Not Look Rudely
The sound of footsteps echoed from the bathroom.
Step by step, as if treading on the tip of the heart.
Bai Lu's figure stiffened.
Xiao Cheng wouldn't come out without wearing clothes, right!
"Do you have anything else to take? Tell me, I'll get it for you. Don't come out!"
Before Bai Lu could finish her sentence, the footsteps were already behind her, followed by a chilly breath like snow.
In an instant, the entire space was filled with the rushing heartbeat from all directions, making her ears deaf.
Breath paused, time paused.
The cold breath passed by Bai Lu, turning from behind to in front, from elusive to suddenly visible.
Bai Lu immediately closed her eyes, hands covering her eyes, nervously retreating three steps. "What are you doing?"
Xiao Cheng looked at Bai Lu, who covered her face, looking puzzled. "I haven't done anything."
As he spoke, he took a step towards her.
One step, and he was in front of her.
Bai Lu sensed the approaching cold breath, retreated again, and her heels had reached the low threshold of the bathroom. She couldn't retreat any further, or she would enter the bathroom.
She could only reach out her hand to block him. "Stop, don't come any closer. Why did you come out?"
Xiao Cheng looked at the fair hand extended in front of him, wanting to hold it. He looked up and saw Bai Lu, who was covering her face and still nervous. He slowly reached out his hand.
He handed her the empty hot water bottle.
"The hot water is finished, here's your hot water bottle."
Bai Lu took the hot water bottle and walked away.
The next second, she directly collided with a cold, hard, and resolute wall. When she instinctively leaned back, a force wrapped around her waist.
The whole person steadily crashed into the robust and resolute chest.
The hand covering her face fell off.
Her eyes were filled with mosquito coil circles.
What's going on? She clearly walked around, how did she still collide? She's really going crazy!
Do not look rudely! Do not look rudely!
Xiao Cheng saw Bai Lu still tightly closing her eyes in his arms, as if she had finally discovered something, he chuckled.
Opening his mouth to explain, "I am wearing clothes."
"... You should have said it earlier!"
Bai Lu finally opened her eyes without any burden, the mosquito coil circle vision gradually becoming clear.
Suddenly, it was a feast of beauty.
The strong and sturdy chest of a man was right in front of her, healthy and sexy wheat-colored skin, distinct muscles, robust and resolute. The old knife scars had faded, and the faint pink traces added a touch of imposing aura to the plainness. The not-so-obvious iron sand bullet wounds on the chest made the still picture suddenly enter the blood curtain of gunfire.
To defend one's dignity, one must be decisive in killing; to be ruthless and "cruel," one must create the awe-inspiring authority that everyone fears and obtain a few taels of broken silver to sustain life.
Haughty and ruthless, indifferent to human emotions, was the world's initial interpretation of Xiao Cheng; strategizing in the business world, sitting steadily in a high position, was the world's later admiration for Xiao Cheng.
No one knew what kind of past was hidden beneath the suit and leather shoes.
Bai Lu witnessed it today.
Perhaps, in the memories of her previous life, she also witnessed it, but didn't see and feel it so vividly.
Seeing that Bai Lu had been silent all along, Xiao Cheng thought she was hurt and quickly hugged her.
Patting her back, he said, "Be more careful next time you walk."
Bai Lu thumped him, "Clearly, you suddenly walked to the right and bumped into me. I was walking on the right. You just needed to walk straight. Why did you walk to the right... Clearly, you only wore pants and said you were wearing clothes. Nonsense..."
"She was covering herself back and forth, still giving him indecent looks!
Xiao Cheng grabbed her little fist in front of his chest with not much strength and sternly retorted, "Pants are also clothes."
Bai Lu withdrew her hand and pushed him away, saying, "Yes, yes, you're right. If we don't take a bath soon, the water will get cold."
"Lu Lu, wait for me to sleep together."
Xiao Cheng finished his serious admonition before going to take a bath.
Bai Lu turned around, wanting to say "dream on" to him, but when she saw the new wound on his back, she stopped abruptly.
She said nothing, turned around, and went back to the room.
The night was cool like water, so quiet that even the sound of fish splashing water in the small river could be heard. Occasionally, a few strands of shimmering moonlight fell on the river, creating a beautiful scene.
The fish swam away with a splash of their tails.
Xiao Cheng returned to the room after taking a bath and saw Bai Lu sitting at the bedside, waiting for him with a book in her hand.
He walked over immediately.
Bai Lu's gaze moved from the book to Xiao Cheng's face, and she said, "Take off your clothes."
Xiao Cheng paused in his steps.
Quickly getting on the bed, he approached Bai Lu, and his deep, dark eyes stared at her intently.
"What did you just say?" he asked.
Bai Lu, looking at his face just a centimeter away, expressionless, extended a finger and pushed him away.
She put down the book in her other hand and took out a small bottle from under the pillow.
Speaking slowly, she said, "Take... off... your... clothes."
Seeing the small bottle in Bai Lu's hand, Xiao Cheng's eyes flashed with panic, and he decisively stepped back.
"No need, I'm not injured," he said.
The small bottle in Bai Lu's hand was the medicinal wine for treating bruises that Xiao Cheng's grandparents had given him when they went back to Xiao's village to pay respects during Qingming Festival. The medicinal wine could not only treat sprains but also promote blood circulation and remove bruises caused by injuries.
As Xiao Cheng turned around, Bai Lu grabbed his arm. "Where are you going?" she asked.
"To wash clothes," Xiao Cheng found a reason.
Bai Lu's face showed a cool smile. "I already heard the sound of you washing and hanging clothes."
Saying that, she reached out towards his neckline.
Xiao Cheng covered his collar and retreated to the bedside, leaning against it closely.
But Bai Lu followed and sat in front of him.
Softly, she said, "Good boy, take off your clothes."
Xiao Cheng shook his head. "I won't."
"Lulu wants you to be reserved."
Bai Lu bit her lip, and her smile became cooler. "When you want to hug me to sleep, why don't you talk about being reserved?"
Xiao Cheng: "..."
"When you kiss me, why don't you mention being reserved?"
Xiao Cheng: "..."
"When you want me to wait for you to sleep together, why don't you talk about being reserved?"
Xiao Cheng: "..."
"That's different."
"How is it different?"
Bai Lu grabbed Xiao Cheng's hand covering the collar. "You can make a scene when you're drunk, can't you listen?"
"No," Xiao Cheng refused to let go.
Even though Bai Lu held his hand, she still couldn't open the buttons on the collar, one by one. Even when one finger was pried open, the other hand covered it again, and at last, both hands were used.
He just wouldn't let Bai Lu unbutton his collar.
Bai Lu wasn't angry at all. She slowly let go of his hand, her tone light and ethereal. "Okay."
"Since you don't want to take it off, I won't force you. When you went out of the province for business a few days ago, I cleaned up the utility room, washed all the sheets, pillowcases, and mosquito nets. You..."
"I'll take it off!"
Xiao Cheng didn't wait for Bai Lu to finish. He let go of her hand and quickly unbuttoned his collar, from the first to the last button.
It took less than three seconds.
The speed was so fast that when Bai Lu turned her head back, it was already a breathtakingly beautiful scene that could make countless peach blossoms fall.
Xiao Cheng casually tossed his clothes aside.
"It's off."
