Chapter 416
Lu Qingye looked at her and said word by word: "As you said, let me come back early next time you work overtime."
Meng Chuyuan was silent for a moment, and then said without changing his expression: "You have to come back when you should."
He nodded with satisfaction, "Well, it's up to you."
Meng Chuyuan raised her eyes and glanced at him. Seeing the spring breeze on his face, she frowned slightly and urged: "Go and take a shower quickly."
She was sweating heavily and her body was sticky, which made her feel particularly uncomfortable.
Knowing that he would have to go to work later, Meng Chuyuan asked him to wash up first.
In the end, she was the only one who was anxious and uncomfortable...
Lu Qingye stood by the bed, suddenly bent down, lifted the quilt from Meng Chuyuan, hooked one hand around her waist, and pulled her to the bedside, and then he lifted her up into the air.
Meng Chuyuan was startled by his sudden move. She subconsciously wrapped her arms around his neck, looked up at Lu Qingye, and asked doubtfully, "What are you doing?"
"To take a bath."
"I won't wash with you." A trace of shock and fear flashed across Meng Chuyuan's pupils. She struggled in Lu Qingye's arms, but unfortunately her little strength had no effect at all.
Lu Qingye lowered his eyes and responded to her calmly: "I'll leave the bathroom in the master bedroom to you. I'll go to the guest room to wash it."
He paused and added: "I'll carry you over."
"...Oh." Meng Chuyuan calmed down after hearing this, and the shyness in his body gradually dissipated.
Perhaps it was because of the daytime that Meng Chuyuan had been followed and fettered by a sense of shame just now, and that feeling surged strongly in her heart...
Even though her clothes were not clean at that time, she was also spied on places that shouldn't be looked at.
Lu Qingye carried her into the bathroom. He took a towel from the hook on the wall and placed it on the cold sink, letting Meng Chuyuan sit on it temporarily.
Meng Chuyuan was not used to sitting on the sink for the first time. She wanted to get off the sink, but her slippers were in the bedroom. Just looking at the tiles on the floor, Meng Chuyuan felt how cold the soles of his feet would be if he continued like this.
Meng Chuyuan raised his eyes to look at Lu Qingye and said naturally: "My slippers are still outside."
"Wash your hands first, I'll get them for you later." He turned on the faucet, adjusted the water temperature to a suitable state, and then took Meng Chuyuan's hand to wash it for her.
Lu Qingye asked: "Is this temperature okay?"
“Well, okay.”
After Meng Chuyuan finished washing her hands, Lu Qingye returned to the bedroom and found Meng Chuyuan's slippers. He came back to put them on for her and carried her down from the sink.
“That’s it, you can go out.” After Meng Chuyuan landed and stood still, she issued an eviction order to Lu Qingye, kicked him out of the bathroom and closed the door.
Subsequently, Meng Chuyuan turned on the shower head, and the whole bathroom was filled with the sound of the shower.
Lu Qingye went to the cloakroom to get a change of clothes, and went out to the guest room.
…
After a long time, Lu Qingye had finished taking a shower and put on decent clothes. He looked in high spirits.
He packed up and came out of the guest room, and happened to meet Lin Youjuan outside the corridor.
Meeting Lin Youjuan, Lu Qingyeqian said hello: "Mom, good morning."
Lin Youjuan was wrapped in a long down jacket, with pajama pants exposed below her knees, which meant that she was only up temporarily and might have to go back to her room to sleep later.
"Morning..." Lin Youjuan had just finished yawning, with tiredness written all over her face. She raised her head and glanced at Lu Qingye, and found that he suddenly woke up when he came out of another room.
Lin Youjuan stared with doubtful eyes and said unhappily: "How did you get out of here? Did you sleep in the guest room last night?" (End of this chapter)
