"I'll leave, I won' t be in your way. Xia Qiao blurted out. After speaking, she felt that her tone was too sharp and that she was being petty. She sighed inwardly and turned around. "Is there anything you need?"
"Aren' t you supposed to do your duty?" The man raised an
eyebrow, his eyes carrying a hint of mockery.
Xia Qiao was startled and furrowed her brows in confusion. She asked anxiously, "What do you mean?
"Isn' t your duty to be my servant? Pei Lichuan coldly ordered, Come here and help me bathe!
Serve? Xia Qiao's jaw tightened, and her brain throbbed. Did he really consider her just his servant?
Angrily, Xia Qiao glared at him, but she met his frosty gaze and immediately deflated. Her face turned pale as she
begrudgingly grabbed the towe and approached him.
The broad shoulders of the man came into view, and Xia Qiao's face turned fiery red.
Although she and Pei Lichuan were now officially married, she still found it hard to accept such
intimate contact with him suddenly. Um... I... Xia Qiao looked away, stammering and struggling
to say a complete sentence.
Pei Lichuan s mocking smile was laced with scorn. "What? You're bold enough to act but not to look?"
Of course, if you can' t be my servant, you can leave. I won' t force you.
His words made Xia Qiao s face flush red and white with anger.
Xia Qiao felt a surge of grievance. This damned man had no idea!
Leaving here meant she wouldn t be able to return to the Xia family!
From the moment she agreed to marry Pei Lichuan in place of her sister, she knew she was
discarded by the Xia family. She was merely a bargaining chip for their gain. If she left the Pei family, not only would the Xia family not accept her, they might even throw her out.
Thinking about it, Xia Qiao found herself pitiful.
The man before her, whom she had been glaring at, was the only person she could rely on.
"I' ll do as I promised! I will fulfill my duty. Xia Qiao pressed her lips together, suppressing her emotions to appear calm.
Then come here and help me scrub my back. Pei Lichuan said coldly, then closed his eyes and lay still.
Xia Qiao moved closer, crouching down, skillfully
squeezing out the shower gel, and gently applied the foam to his back.
Pei Lichuan rarely sunbathed, so his skin was very white and even more delicate than a woman s.
Although he looked thin, he had a layer of muscle, with smooth and firm lines.
Xia Qiao s cheeks turned red, and her forehead was covered with a fine layer of sweat from nervousness.
Compared to Xia Qiao s embarrassment, Pei Lichuan found himself bringing this on himself. The woman s fingers, covered in foamy shower gel, slid over his back inch by inch. Each touch felt like a stone thrown into his heart, creating ripples of emotion.
Moreover, Xia Qiao was very close, and a faint, almost
imperceptible fragrance surrounded him.
Pei Lichuan, sit up, and let me wash the front... Xia Qiao said, looking down, biting her lip. Pei Lichuan slightly sat up, and the thick foam slid down to his chest as Xia Qiao 's fingers moved.
Xia Qiao bent down, causing Pei Lichuan to see her snow-white neck clearly.
The fragrance lingered at his nose. The spring-like scene swayed in his eyes.
Even though his legs were
disabled, it didn t mean he had no normal physical needs.
Pei Lichuan' s jaw tightened as he tried to control his body s
reactions.
Xia Qiao kept encouraging herself, but her hands still trembled uncontrollably...
