Chapter 4: Grunt
Grunt.
Eleanor lifted her head from under the water, her long wet blonde hair in a graceful arc in the air, full of mermaid-like charm.
Then she couldn't help but laugh as she looked at Asker, who had buried the lower part of his head in the hot water, purring bubbles and trying not to look at her:
"Why are you so restrained?"
"I didn't know you were mixed bathers." Asker said gloomily.
"What about mixed baths?" Eleanor boldly approached, "Isn't it possible for you, as your personal knight, to serve you to clean your body?" ”
"I've never heard of a body-on-the-chest rider doing this." Asker slowly retreated.
"Yes." Eleanor pushed him into a corner, "If it is a male feudal lord and a female knight, basically there will be an ambiguous relationship; If the gender is reversed, it depends on whether there are strict restrictions on the female family. ”
"But let's ...... It's not that kind of relationship. ”
"What isn't that kind of relationship? We're engaged, my dear leader. ”
"It's too early to do that." Asker said stiffly.
"What are you talking about?" Eleanor pretended not to understand, "I just wanted to give you a massage." ”
Massage...... Asker, who was forced into a corner by a big beauty, breathed a long sigh of relief as if he suddenly grabbed a life-saving straw:
"Then get a massage."
So Eleanor got up from the hot spring without care, smiled softly at Asker, who turned his head, and then sat down on the edge of the stone wall of the hot spring, soaked her slender and slender calves in the hot water, and patted her plump and toned, without the slightest fat:
"Come on, get here."
This trick is to retreat, and Eleanor is also very good at playing, because Asker is such a character: if you tell him directly that you want to give him a massage, he will not give him eighty percent; But if you first pretend to hint at grunting with him, and then "retreat" to massage after he refuses, he will be busy agreeing.
After so many years in the position of the Grand Master of the Imperial Knights, and having dealt with countless nobles, her current skills are no longer comparable to those of the city government yesterday.
Asker was a little embarrassed to cover the bottom with his hands, and without squinting, he slowly walked to Eleanor's side. And the knight Ji, who saw through his embarrassment, stared straight at him with his eyes as if he had a bad heart, until he rested his chest on his lap.
Then Eleanor began to pinch his back muscles.
"Whew~" Aske sighed comfortably.
"How?" Eleanor asked with a smile.
With the subtle mist of will, she can easily sense Asker's muscles all over her body, where they are tight, stiff, sore, and overcongested, and use skillful massage techniques to activate the muscles in the corresponding areas.
"The technique is top-notch!" Asker silently walked up and gave a thumbs up.
"After you get married, I can help you press it every day." Eleanor immediately threw out an olive branch at the right time.
"Hmm." Asker was immediately moved.
"Massage every day", which is similar to "knee pillow ear picking", "good morning kiss", "good cooking" and "diligent housework", are all plus points for being a wife.
As if sensing that his body was softening, Eleanor smiled and continued to massage his shoulder blades and back.
Aske instinctively felt a little bad as her hands went down, but soon relaxed again in a state of relaxation and gradually fell asleep.
"Hey, did you sleep?" Eleanor poked her fingers a few times in his cheek and muttered to herself with some disappointment.
Originally, I wanted to continue to massage down and create some ambiguous opportunities...... Unexpectedly, the head of the regiment fell asleep like this.
So do you really trust me that much? Think I'm not going to do something like Medea?
Her Royal Highness, the eldest princess of the empire, asked herself silently, and had to admit that she really couldn't take the initiative to do that kind of thing the whole time. The original plan was only to use all means to tease the dear regiment leader, if he really couldn't hold back his beastly hair, he would hand it over by pushing the boat halfway down the river.
Even after so many years, she has matured and sleek a lot, but deep down in her heart she is still the pure, persistent, and dare to love and hate knight Ji, and she will not and cannot completely become a character who can take the initiative to ride people like a succubus.
Alas.
But that's fine.
Staring at Asker's sleeping side face, Eleanor's gaze gradually softened.
At least you're back......
She waited for more than ten minutes, unable to bear to disturb the regimental leader's deep sleep, and just sat motionless. But soon he couldn't help it, and gently hugged his upper body and kissed him quietly.
Well, I still haven't woken up.
So Her Royal Highness the eldest princess hugged Aske, stood up in a soothing posture, and quietly left the hot spring room.
The two maids guarding the door, one of them immediately put on a bathrobe for her, and also put a towel on the sleeping regiment commander to cover his body, but Eleanor shook his head and refused.
She was afraid of waking the regimental leader, so she just glanced ahead.
So the maid immediately understood, and hurried forward to open the way, to make sure that no attendant would mistakenly break in the way of His Highness's advance—of course, it was Eleanor's will mist that first discovered.
The other maid put a cotton slip on Eleanor and followed her to the bedroom of the Octagon.
The guest rooms are located not far from the hot spring room, which is actually just the same location on the second and third floors. The maid entered the room first, quickly lifted the quilt from the tidy bed, closed the open window, closed the curtains, and lit the lamp at the head of the bed.
Eleanor walked in with Aske in her arms and gently placed him on the bed. The two maids bowed to her, and then silently closed the door and withdrew.
Slowly unbuttoning the close-fitting bathrobe and letting it fall on the carpet, Eleanor, who had dried her long blond hair, came to the closet, opened the cabinet door, and picked out a silk pajamas.
She subconsciously tugged at the sleeve of her pajamas, as if she felt the urge to give up wearing it, but eventually pulled it off and slowly put it on.
After covering Asker with the quilt, Eleanor, who was wearing pajamas, also got into bed, leaned comfortably on the pillow, and picked up a copy of "Charlemagne's Biography" next to the pillow and read it.
It didn't take long for Aske to wake up from between the soft quilt and the mattress.
Not?
First reaction: Why not in the hot springs?
Second reaction: Why are you not wearing clothes?
Third Reaction: Eleanor was actually next to her?!!
"Are you awake?" Eleanor raised her chin a little lazily, and made an after-the-fact expression of "His Highness has finished refreshing", "I slept so deeply, you won't wake up no matter how I mess with you." ”
Asker: ???
He subconsciously touched it down.
There is no sense of déjà vu in the abdomen of "not a drop left".
There were also no suspicious blood stains on the bed.
So he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Why do you think that kind of thing can only happen in the bedroom?" Seeing that he was relieved, Eleanor deliberately flirted.
"Because there's no such thing as a 'body hollowed out' feeling of prostration." Aske said calmly.
Eleanor was silent, then angrily grabbed the pillow and threw it at the hateful leader:
"You're pretty skilled, aren't you? I studied it thoroughly with Medea! Still hollowed out? Yes?! ”
"Wait, I didn't do it voluntarily!" Asker raised his arms to fend off the harmless attack, and called out to himself, "And aren't you my knight?" How can any knight take the initiative to attack her master! ”
"Because I didn't keep your chastity!" Eleanor said angrily, "So I'm going to punish myself for my negligence and mistakes!" ”
"Then why hit me with a pillow!"
"Because it hits you, it hurts in my heart!"
