Chapter 849

He ran a tub of hot water for her to soak in while he himself stood under a heat lamp taking a shower.

It was a cold-water showerhead.

Outside, a heavy snow was falling, and he trapped himself in the bathroom for a cold shower.

Ye Xingguang: “!!!”

Lying in the bathtub soaking in the hot water, Ye Xingguang flicked her agile fishtail, feeling cold on his behalf.

With good intentions, she said, “Come join me in the bath, it’s the dead of winter and you’re taking a cold shower. Aren’t you cold? Don’t catch a fever and make me take care of you tomorrow.”

Ye Junqing didn’t speak, showering with his back to her, only showing her his sexy back.

Even with the man’s back turned to her, she could guess that he was purposefully aiming the showerhead at one particular spot, “…”

“A-Qing~,” Ye Xingguang called his name with special tenderness. This man, treating her like air, dared to take a cold shower right in front of her—this was an insult to her!

Upon hearing these two words, Ye Junqing’s back stiffened for a moment, but he said nothing, always facing away from her.

Perhaps the cold shower had a temporary effect, so he grabbed a towel, wrapped it around his waist and then lifted her out of the hot water and carried her back to bed. He took an ointment for bruises and started applying it to the bruises on her limbs.

Without a word, his demeanor was neither dark nor sunny, just that silent deadpan expression!

If not for his too delicate facial features, if not for his too sexy abs, what use would such a man be to keep around for the New Year?

After Ye Junqing finished treating the bruises on her limbs and wiped the teeth marks on her shoulder with a disinfectant cotton ball, he carefully applied anti-inflammatory ointment and then went back to the bathroom for another cold shower.

Ye Xingguang lay naked under the covers, annoyed to death. This man, after tormenting her body, was now tormenting her heart!

Wasn’t her body seductive enough? He would rather go to the bathroom to take cold showers over and over again than seek her out again.

Clearly, in the car, he hadn’t shown any mercy from beginning to end!

Ye Xingguang pinched her slim waist, so angry she jumped out of bed with a “bang,” flung open the bathroom door, and stormed in wearing slippers. She yanked the man back to the bedroom, then forcefully pushed him down onto the bed…

Then she pounced on him and pointed at his nose, “Ye Junqing, if you keep this up with me, by tomorrow, no, the day after tomorrow, I’ll make it so you can’t get out of bed. Do you believe me?”

In the dead of night, awakened by the sound of the door being kicked, the parents downstairs were stirred from sleep. Bai Lanwu, wearing her pajamas, went upstairs, and seeing the light on in the room, she stood outside the bedroom and knocked on the door, “Junqing, what was that noise just now?”

Bai Lanwu and Song Chuanqi had gone to bed early and had no idea when Ye Xingguang had come back, let alone that she was in the room.

Ye Xingguang, straddling the man, shouted to the outside, “Mom, it’s nothing, I’m taming my husband!”

A tiger doesn’t show its might, you think I’m a sick cat, huh!

Upon hearing this, Bai Lanwu paused, “You two go to bed early. What time is it now?”

However, as their daughter had just come back and the young couple hadn’t reunited for over a month, Bai Lanwu understood. As an elder, she didn’t say anything else and went back downstairs, still wearing her clothes.

Once Bai Lanwu’s footsteps had completely faded away, Ye Xingguang’s voice broke into a cry, “What do you want from me?!”noveldrama
