After he washed the lather off Ye Youyou’s head, Li Jinnan finally ended his torture. Now, he faced an even bigger problem. What about her body?

Bubble bath?

All Li Jinnan had to do was touch her body, and his body would feel like it was going up in flames. It was like a hungry man allowed to look at food but forbidden from eating it. It was pure torture.

After staring at Ye Youyou’s fair back for very long while, Li Jinnan finally picked up a bottle of bath soap and slowly poured it into the water.

Ye Youyou saw the bubbles in front of her increasing in quantity and covering her body. She turned and was met with Li Jinnan’s beet-red face.

With a chuckle, she said, “You may leave. I’ll do it on my own.”

Right now? Leave?

That thought had initially occurred to Li Jinnan, but it had totally disappeared by now. He didn’t want to leave.

He reached his hand out and put it through Ye Youyou’s underarms. He said, “I said I’d help you, and so I will. The service has to be up to standard.”

“with you sitting here, it’s poking against my back uncomfortably.” Ye Youyou fidgeted and moved her body away slightly. “It’s so uncomfortable.”

Li Jinnan’s pants were still snugly on. When he heard her complaint, he moved his body closer to hers and said, “It’s uncomfortable for me too.”

Ye Youyou glared at him and proceeded to get to work.

Li Jinnan occasionally reached out to help, but even that was only for a short moment.

Ye Youyou was quickly done washing herself. She was about to get out of the tub.

Li Jinnan was facing a huge problem. He remained in the bathtub, not daring to get up, and not daring to get close.

Ye Youyou, on the other hand, did not pay any attention to him. With one hand on his body for support, she slowly stood up.

The soap suds were still clinging to her porcelain-colored body, making her originally soft and delicate skin look even more perfect and tempting.

Li Jinnan shut his eyes and breathed in deeply.

The corners of Ye Youyou’s lips turned up. She kissed his lips and said, “I’ll be waiting for you outside.”

With that, she got out of the bathtub and pulled a towel over to wrap her body in before walking out.

Li Jinnan remained seated in the warm pool of bubbles, slowly beginning to doubt his outlook on life.

This was Li Jinnan’s home. Ye Youyou had never been there before. However, the walk-in closet that adjoined the bedroom had been conveniently filled with sleeping clothes and garments appropriate for wearing out. They were all made to her measurements.

Ye Youyou picked a random set of sleepwear. She was crouched down drying her hair when Li Jinnan finally emerged from inside. He was wearing only a towel. His body was a little wrinkled from being in the water for so long.

Ye Youyou briefly looked at him and turned her attention back to drying her hair.

Li Jinnan’s insides grew even hotter when he saw her. The evil he brought upon himself was indeed the hardest to bear. Why had he offered to help her bathe out of the blue?

The situation now was that he was in so much discomfort with no outlet for release. His whole body was tightly wound up. He headed to the closet and found a pair of shorts before heading straight to lie on the bed.

The past few days hadn’t been exhausting for Ye Youyou alone. Li Jinnan was so fatigued that his whole body ached. It wasn’t just his physical body that was tired. It was also his mental state.

Li Jinnan laid on the bed. He covered his head with the quilt before closing his eyes.

Ye Youyou was blowing her hair dry. The low humming sound produced by the hairdryer slowly lulled Li Jinnan’s eyes close. Just as he was about to actually fall asleep, the sound of the hairdryer was abruptly cut off.

He was instantly awake. A thought flashed through his mind, She is done!

His rational mind immediately pulled his thoughts back. Even if she was done, there was nothing he could do but stay still and behave.

Ye Youyou slowly crawled over. Her body was slim and soft, enchanting like a cat. She burrowed under the covers and wrapped her arm around Li Jinnan’s waist.

In a gentle voice, she asked, “Are you asleep yet?”
