45. Shameless
Lu Zaiyuan stripped Nanxi naked in a few clicks, picked her up, and put her in the bathtub. Fearing that her feet would be soaked in the water, he spread her legs apart and rested her feet on the rims of the tanks on either side.
Although her entire body was buried in white bubbles, the spring light between her legs was not exposed to Lu Zaiyuan's sight. But this posture still embarrassed her. She put her legs together and held them in the air: "I don't want this, you go to the utility room and find a long wooden plank to stand here, and let me put my feet on the plank." ”
Lu Zaiyuan rolled his eyes and muttered, "Which part of your body haven't I seen?" Still pretending to be shy? ”
As soon as he finished speaking, a cloud of white foam flew over and threw it on his face: "Why are you pretending to be shy?" People are so shy! Just go! ”
Lu Zaiyuan wiped the foam off his face, turned around and went out to find a longboard, and said with a smile as he walked: "I'm not by your side, you just lie on your stomach and pretend to be dead, when you see me, you are like being beaten with chicken blood, am I your stimulant?" ”
No matter what he said, in the end he still found a long wooden plank and erected it at Nanxi's feet.
Nanxi was immersed in white bubbles, and the warm water surrounded and soothed her body, relaxing her body and mind, and the many negative energies deposited in her body during the day crawled out of her pores little by little.
Lu Zaiyuan sat on the edge of the bathtub and soaked hot water with a towel to scrub the potion off her feet.
It wasn't until the water in the bathtub was slightly cold that Lu Zaiyuan put hot water to wash away the bubbles on Nanxi's body, wrapped her in a dry bath towel, carried her out of the bathroom, and put her on the bed.
Then he took the potion and a cotton swab and re-medicated her feet, wrapping them in gauze.
Nanxi watched him busy on his feet, and there was a hot current surging in his heart. She called him, "Curly, you are so good to me, it makes me feel unreal, as if in a dream." ”
Lu Zaiyuan pinched her gauze-wrapped feet: "Does it hurt?" ”
"Shhh Of course it hurts! Nanxi took a cool breath.
"That's not a dream." Lu Zaiyuan collected the medicine bottle, cotton swab and gauze, went to Nanxi's side, and kissed her on the face.
Nanxi turned his head and looked into his eyes, and the warm current in his heart surged faster. She said, "I'm serious, you should be serious. A man like you, tall and handsome, with his own family property and career, how can you get involved with me? Did you take the wrong medicine? ”
"I'm so smart, I never take the wrong medicine." Lu Zaiyuan said seriously.
"Why are you? Why are you being so nice to me? Nanxi really couldn't understand, how could Lu Zaiyuan be willing to give up an entire forest and guard her not very outstanding little tree?
Lu Zaiyuan patted her cheek: "Because you are a good girl, you deserve such good treatment." ”
"Curly" Nanxi called him, and the warm current in her heart rushed up, overflowing from her eyes, turning into two lines of hot tears, flowing down her cheeks.
No matter how he came to her, he really touched her in recent times.
She really wanted to say something to him, to express her feelings for him at the moment. But she felt that the language was too pale and thin, and there was no way to express her complicated feelings at the moment.
So, she hooked his neck, leaned in, and kissed him on the lips.
He responded to her, two people, four lips, gently touching, grinding slowly. She wrapped her arms around his neck, and he wrapped his arms around her waist, and the two bodies were like two vines, clinging and intertwining.
This kiss, without a trace of **, is simply a spiritual communication between two people.
Nanxi wants to express his gratitude to Lu Zaiyuan, and Lu Zaiyuan seems to be expressing his reliance and need for Nanxi.
The two of them lingered for a while, until the bath towel on Nanxi's body fell off.
Lu Zaiyuan grabbed the bath towel, wrapped it around her again, and rubbed the tip of his nose on her forehead: "Don't seduce me, I'm afraid I won't be able to hold it." ”
Nan Xi hooked his neck and didn't let go, and whispered in his ear: "If you want it, I'll give it"
Lu Zaiyuan took a deep breath, patted her on the back, and said, "Don't want it, I still feel very guilty about Nanhe when something like that happened yesterday." She's not getting better, and I'm too embarrassed to bully her sister anymore. ”
"En" Nanxi understands his mood, why shouldn't she? It's just that he's so good to her that she doesn't know what she can come up with to repay him.
She kissed him on the cheek, grabbed the bath towel, and rubbed off the bed: "I'd better go back, I don't worry about leaving Xiaohe alone in the room, you can also go to bed early and take care of the wound on your head." ”
Lu Zaiyuan stood up: "Your feet have just been wrapped, I'll send you down." ”
"No, you don't." Nanxi pushed his hand away, "You're not at home during the day, and I'm not walking around by myself?" I'm not that squeamish, don't spoil me too much, you'll spoil me. ”
"You can see the stairs yourself, don't fall." Lu Zaiyuan instructed her.
Nanxi agreed, went out of his room, and went downstairs.
After a night without incident, the next morning, Nanxi got up early, and after breakfast, went to the flower market near his home and bought a bouquet of fresh pink roses.
When she got home, Sister Fen was sitting on the sofa in the living room, and Lu Zaiyuan had already gone to work.
"Mr. Lu asked me to take good care of you these days, and he said that if he took care of you two sisters, he would give me a salary increase." Sister Fen looked at Nanxi with a smile, "At first glance, I was quite happy, but after thinking about it carefully, no, did he use me as a nanny?" ”
"I'm sorry, his man talks very casually, don't be like him." Nanxi Ti Lu explained in the distance.
"Yo, when did you start talking to him? Look at what makes you nervous, I'm just joking with you. I'm willing to help you, but if I can get a raise because of this, won't I earn it? Sister Fen said.
Nanxi thanked Sister Fen, went back to her room and changed into a azure long-sleeved knee-length skirt, tied her hair into a clean ponytail, slightly puffed a little powder on her face, applied light-colored lip gloss, and didn't put makeup on her face.
After eight o'clock, she carried her white square handbag, held the pink roses she had just bought, went out, took a taxi, and went to Pei's house.
The Pei family lives on a hill on the west side of the city, which is a European-style castle built during the Republic of China. The original owner of this castle was a big warlord, and it was his jurisdiction within a radius of thousands of miles with D City as the center.
The years have changed, 20 years ago, Zhao Liangmao washed his hands in the golden basin, withdrew from the rivers and lakes, bought this castle from the hands of the descendants of the warlord, and after some decoration, it became a modern palace-style villa.
Zhao Liangmao has only one daughter left by his side, and all his property will belong to this daughter, and he is still counting on his daughter to provide for him in his old age.
Therefore, Zhao Xinyao and Pei Tianming got married in this palace-like building and have lived here ever since.
And Pei Jiaoqian was born here and grew up here.
This building is famous, but Nanxi is the first time I have seen it.
She got out of the taxi, stood outside the tall bronze gate, looked at several majestic buildings in the courtyard, and sighed in her heart: Such a person is really not in the same world as us.
She pressed the doorbell, and a middle-aged man in a light blue uniform opened the door for her, asked her name, and led her to the courtyard: "Mrs. is drinking morning tea in the flower hall, you come with me." ”
Nan Xi thanked him, followed behind the middle-aged man, crossed the grassy compound, and headed in the direction of the flower hall.
The yard is so big, Nanxi's feet hurt. In order to maintain her image, she also tries not to let her gait be crooked, which adds to the pressure on her feet.
When she walked to the door of the flower hall, she was already sweating on her forehead, not hot sweat, but painful.
The middle-aged man pushed open the door and went in first and replied: "Mrs., Miss, Uncle, the Miss Nan who I made an appointment yesterday has arrived." ”
Nanxi hadn't entered the door yet, and when he heard the man call three people in a row, his heart sank: Okay! It's really complete, eighty percent of Pei Tianming went home and told his wife about the fact that she found Tianming Logistics yesterday, and Zhao Xinyao already knew the purpose of her coming, so she invited the person concerned.
"Let her in." Zhao Xinyao's slow voice came out.
The middle-aged man turned around and made a gesture of please towards Nanxi. Nanxi took a deep breath and strode into the door.
This flower hall is a transparent glass room, which is divided into four areas: east, west, north and south, and is planted with various flowers. Between the four flower fields, there are tall wrought iron shelves with various potted flowers and green vines.
In the center of the glass room, among the flowers and greenery, there is a rattan tea table, surrounded by several rattan chairs.
Zhao Xinyao sat on the rattan chair facing the door, wearing a white gauze dress, holding a white porcelain teacup, and drinking tea unhurriedly. Pei Jiaoqian sat beside her, and the mother and daughter were very close to each other. And the person sitting on Zhao Xinyao's right hand is Deng Jiaxiang, the new son-in-law of the Pei family.
It's a big show.
But since Nanxi is here, of course, he has already made all kinds of psychological preparations.
She bowed slightly to Zhao Xinyao first, and offered the pink rose in her hand: "Hello Mrs. Pei, this bouquet of flowers is for you." ”
When Nanxi handed the flowers out, his palms were sweating.
If she knew that the Pei family had such a beautiful flower hall, if she knew that she would see Zhao Xinyao in the flower hall, she would not buy a bouquet of flowers as a gift.
On the way here, she looked at the large bouquet of pink roses in her arms, pink and shiny, and there were water droplets hanging on the petals, which was really beautiful.
But in this flower hall, against the backdrop of all kinds of exotic flowers and plants, her pink roses looked so pitiful, like an ugly duckling breaking into a flock of white swans.
She saw Pei Jiaoqian pouting, but Zhao Xinyao didn't embarrass her, this noble lady was very well educated, and her upbringing made her not show any affection on her face, and she always smiled so decently.
"Thank you, Miss Nan, the flowers are very beautiful, Lao Wang, you take Miss Nan's flowers to my study and find a bottle to live and raise." Zhao Xinyao raised her hand.
The middle-aged man who had led Nanxi just now came over and took the bouquet from her hand.
"Miss Nan come and sit down and drink tea together." Zhao Xinyao pointed to the seat opposite her.
Nanxi thanked him and walked over and sat down.
From the moment Nanxi came in, Deng Jiaxiang didn't say a word, bowed his head and drank tea. When Nanxi sat down at the table, he suddenly stood up and said to Zhao Xinyao, "Mom, do you want another piece of matcha cake?" I'll get it. ”
Zhao Xinyao pointed her finger at him and said with a smile: "You kid, do you want to feed me fat?" Where can I eat so much? You don't have to worry about me, you should take care of the guest and pour her a cup of tea. ”
Deng Jiaxiang smiled awkwardly: "I see that my mother loves matcha cakes very much, and my mother is not fat no matter how she eats, so don't be afraid." ”
After speaking, he obediently poured a cup of tea for Nanxi, handed it to her, and said directly without a salutation: "Please use tea." ”
"Thank you." Nanxi is much calmer than him, because she has no intentions towards him at all, and she is open-minded, so she naturally does not feel embarrassed.
Pei Jiaoqian sneered on the side: "It's really interesting, obviously two people who are very familiar with each other, what are you pretending to be polite?" ”
If it was usual, Nanxi would have been ridiculed by her like this, and she would definitely have spoken back. But today, Nanxi came for a purpose, and since there is something to ask for others, it is naturally a little shorter in terms of momentum.
She didn't speak, but she didn't hear Miss Pei's words, picked up the teacup, and took a sip of tea.
Zhao Xinyao's eyes swirled back and forth between her and Deng Jiaxiang, and she said, "Miss Nan said on the phone yesterday that she has something to tell me, I don't know what it is?" ”
Nanxi heard her ask like this, and thought to herself: Will your husband not tell you when he comes home? Look at today's situation, you already know it, and you have to pretend not to know and ask again, don't you just want me to be embarrassed again?
She put the teacup away, looked up at Zhao Xinyao's eyes, and recounted the words she told Pei Tianming yesterday in front of Pei's mother and daughter and Deng Jiaxiang.
When she finished speaking, Zhao Xinyao looked at Deng Jiaxiang and was silent.
Deng Jiaxiang hurriedly explained to her: "Autistic children are very dependent, I used to treat Nanhe as a sister and took good care of her, which is why she is so dependent on me." ”
"What are you panicking about? My mom didn't say anything. Pei Jiaoqian choked him, and then looked at Nanxi, "Your own sister didn't take care of her and made her sick, but you asked my husband to help you take care of her, what is the reason?" Are we relatives? Friends? What reason do we have to help you with this? ”
Nanxi was embarrassed by the question, and his hands were clasped tightly, so that his fingers hurt. She secretly reminded herself: Don't be angry, don't get angry, whatever she says, as long as she can let Deng Jiaxiang go to see her sister and coax her sister to eat, it is nothing for her to be wronged.
She smiled and nodded: "Yes, it is true that I didn't take good care of my sister, originally this is my family's business, there is no reason to trouble Mr. Deng and Miss Pei." But the doctor said that my sister now has no ** to survive, she doesn't eat or drink all day, no matter how much I persuade or coax. I really had no choice, remembering that she had listened to Mr. Deng very much before, and hoped to trouble Mr. Deng to help me persuade her to open her mouth for dinner. I am also desperate, and I hope Miss Pei can understand. ”
"Why should I be considerate of you" Pei Jiaoqian wanted to squeeze Nanxi again, but as soon as the words came out, she was stopped by Zhao Xinyao.
Zhao Xinyao looked at Deng Jiaxiang: "Jiaxiang, what do you think?" ”
Deng Jiaxiang turned to face Zhao Xinyao and lowered his head: "I listen to my mother, what my mother tells me, I will do what I do." ”
Nanxi looked at him like this, not to mention how sad he was. Although this man does not belong to her now, she used to love him very much, rely on him and trust him. She used to think that she could rely on a man who could be relied on for a lifetime, but at this time, she still felt a little awkward.
Deng Jiaxiang's deference did not win Zhao Xinyao's praise, she said coldly: "As far as I know, after you and Jiaoqian got married, you have gone to Miss Nan more than once. Listen to me? Have you asked my opinion on the few times you met with Miss Nan? ”
Deng Jiaxiang's head lowered, and his facial expression froze. He was embarrassed for two seconds and said in a low voice, "Mom, I was wrong." ”
In front of Nanxi, Zhao Xinyao taught Deng Jiaxiang a lesson, in fact, she wanted to ring a wake-up call for the two of them. Deng Jiaxiang was so obedient, which made her very proud.
She raised her chin and looked at Nanxi: "Miss Nan, originally your matter was nothing, let alone someone who knew each other before, even if it was a stranger, if we encountered such a thing, we would have to help." Healing the sick and saving people is a good thing to accumulate virtue, and I shouldn't stop it. ”
Nanxi listened to the prelude to these words, and her heart began to sink.
Sure enough, Zhao Xinyao immediately said: "However, I talked to you last time, our family is different from ordinary people, I don't know how many pairs of eyes are staring in and out." I also understand your sister's situation, and it is definitely not something that can be cured once or twice. If she has been sick for three years and five years, Jiaxiang runs to your house every day, why can't she say it? ”
"Madame, we don't need him to go every day, and we don't need him to spend so much time with us. I just want my sister to open her mouth to eat, and let Mr. Deng help persuade her. I just need to feed her. Nanxi hurriedly explained.
"That's it," Zhao Xinyao pondered for a moment, and then said, "If that's the case, if I block it, people will say that I have no sympathy." It's better to let Jiaxiang go a few times first and try to persuade your sister. If his presence can make your sister open her mouth to eat, it will naturally be a merit. But if your sister doesn't react to his words, then you have to go to the doctor for help. I can't allow Jiaxiang to go to his ex-girlfriend's house every now and then, it's very unfair to my family. ”
"It's not fair to me now!" As soon as Pei Jiaoqian heard her mother agree, she jumped up from the chair at once, "Jiaxiang is my husband!" Why lend it to someone else? ”
