Chapter 041: Bathing Problem
"Back to the Lord, not yet."
"Continue to let people follow, and if there is news, you can report it."
"Subordinate Order!"
After a brief conversation, the corridor on the second floor of the inn was calm again. Dongfang Ke returned to the room, his steps were gentle, the person on the bed was still sleeping, he didn't want to wake her up.
Ruan Liuyan slept until the end of the night, because he was in the inn, he didn't have to follow the palace's dining system, even if the time for the main meal had already passed, Dongfang Ke still ordered the store to send food. Because Ruan Liuyan has injuries on his body, these foods are mainly light and nourishing the stomach.
After eating, it is a bath, and sure enough, when the irrelevant person withdrew, Dongfang Ke asked for her opinion in a similar way, "The hour is not early, the smoke is flowing, your injuries are not yet healed, or I will help you bathe and then rest." β
Ruan Liuyan glanced at him, and then refused without thinking: "What I'm hurting is... Chest, not hands, I can do it myself. "Anyway, this man has said that he is attracted to her, so why not be presumptuous?
Dongfang Ke raised his head and saw her eyes rolling slightly, clearly planning something, so he followed her and said, "I can let you come by yourself without touching you, but are you sure you can hold on to it until the end and don't need help?" β
"Of course!" Ruan Liuyan nodded solemnly, suddenly remembering something, her eyes lit up, "Emperor... Childe, your status is noble, and you serve me, which is unreasonable. This inn is so big, there should always be a hostess, the boss must have a maid there, we can borrow the hostess's maid, so that you can have the best of both worlds! β
She was so excited that she didn't notice that Dongfang Ke's face sank for a moment when she heard these words. When she looked at him, Dongfang Ke returned to normal, a smile on the corner of his lips, and he nodded, "This method is very good, you think very thoughtfully." But one thing you forget, you and I are already a close husband and wife in the eyes of others, as a husband, but I want to 'borrow' a woman to serve my wife, isn't it not quite reasonable? β
Dongfang Ke dismissed Ruan Liuyan's mention in two sentences, Ruan Liuyan was deflated, and finally took a step back, "Then I will use a strip of cloth to strangle it from the front chest to the back, and then you help me tie the knot, so that the wound will not be lightly stained with water, and I will be careful myself." Do you think it's okay? β
In Ruan Liuyan's gaze, Dongfang Ke finally nodded. Ruan Liuyan's mood jumped, and the second shopkeeper on the other side received the order to carry hot water into the house, and soon the bathing utensils and bedtime clothes were ready, and Ruan Liuyan walked behind the screen with a white cloth strip. The gentleman promised a thousand gold, Dongfang Ke promised to let her wash it herself, she was not worried that he would break in.
Quickly removing all the upper clothes, Ruan Liuyan carefully unwrapped the white cloth and wrapped it around her shoulders, she was engrossed, and did not notice that the candle flame had completely reflected her figure on the silk screen. The candle flame flickered, and all her movements were clearly seen by the people outside the screen.
Dongfang Ke was originally drinking tea, and his right hand holding the teacup couldn't help but tighten a little at this moment, the beautiful figure of the woman had already attracted his attention, and the woman who usually looked weak and boneless, and the clothes were "not to be underestimated". His mind fluttered, and he couldn't help but think of the night when he clashed with Ruan Liuyan, the feeling of his palm covering the soft pair was too good, and as soon as he closed his eyes, the scene of her trembling body under him appeared in his mind. Forcing himself to look away, Dongfang Ke drank all the tea in his hand, and the cool tea entered his stomach, minus a little bit of heat in his body.
Ruan Liuyan was still struggling with the white strips of cloth, and finally wrapped the strips of cloth tightly around her body, and she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. As soon as she thought of calling Dongfang Ke to come over and help her tie the knot, she was not happy, because just now she found out that tying the knot can be tied in the front, and it doesn't necessarily have to be helped, but the words have already been spoken......
Ruan Liuyan felt that her head was really rusty, and she wilted to call Dongfang Ke in, she sat down on the low chair next to the barrel before the other party came in, leaned over the barrel and left her back to "face" him. Dongfang Ke knew that this woman was guarding him tightly, and he didn't intend to tease her with such a short gap in tying a knot. The knot was quickly tied, and he retreated cleanly and without any drag.
The hot water in the barrel was left to dry for a while, and now the heat is just right. At this moment, there was still one person in the room, hesitated for a moment, Ruan Liuyan finally took off her clothes, there was a small wooden stool specially prepared in the barrel, after she entered the barrel, she sat on the wooden bench, the water slowly rippled with her movements, just flush in the part close to the wound.
She only said that the shopkeeper was understanding, and she knew that a clean wooden stool was put in the barrel, but she didn't know that Dongfang Ke specially ordered someone to put it in. Ruan Liuyan was injured and couldn't take a bath, so she only cleaned her body with a silk towel before getting out of the barrel, changing into the clothes she wore when she slept, and she walked out from behind the screen.
After coming out, she saw Dongfang Ke being serious, sitting at the head of the bed and looking through a blue scroll under the candlelight, Ruan Liuyan was a little relieved, coughed slightly, and she reminded loudly, "I'm fine, it's your turn." β
Dongfang Ke said "um", got up and opened the door and ordered Xiao Er to change the water, but he didn't look at her, Ruan Liuyan, who noticed that he was a little abnormal, didn't think much about it, wiped some of the hair tips that were wet with water when she was bathing, and she lifted the quilt and went to bed.
There is obviously a big gap between men and women, both in terms of strength and efficiency. Ruan Liuyan just opened the blue book that Dongfang Ke had just read and turned a few pages, Dongfang Ke took a bath and came out from behind the screen, the man's sturdy physique was quite more tense under the wrapping of clothes, looking up, Ruan Liuyan turned her face away with a little blushing, put down the blue book at the head of the bed, she turned over and lay on the bed and faced the inside.
Ruan Liuyan's expression was too obvious, causing Dongfang Ke to frown slightly, and quickly reacted to what her actions were, and the corners of his lips smiled again. The candle flame was extinguished, Ruan Liuyan's closed eyes opened suddenly, and the whole person lay quietly motionless, feeling that someone was coming to bed behind her, and her breathing couldn't help but hold her breath even tighter.
They are now husband and wife in the eyes of outsiders, so they naturally open a room and sleep in a bed. Dongfang Ke has a noble status, she can't let him sleep on the ground, but now that she has gone out of everything, she naturally won't wronged herself. So the result now is that the two of them sleep in the same bed again, it's not that they haven't slept before, and at that time, Ruan Liuyan was basically at a passive disadvantage to Dongfang and wronged him. Now, Ruan Liuyan can guarantee that as long as he dares to mistreat her, she will dare to "kill the king" again.
Dongfang Ke didn't expect Ruan Liuyan to have so many twists and turns in his heart, adjust his comfortable sleeping position, he reached out and scooped the woman into his arms, Ruan Liuyan was still in a fugue, Leng Buding crossed a hand around her waist, so he reflexively elbowed back and hit the waist and abdomen of the person behind him.
Clearly hearing the muffled snort of the person behind him, Ruan Liuyan pretended to be panicked and spoke, "Husband, are you okay?" What did you just do? It's not like you're not going to touch meβ"
