Meeting Frankly
Ming Liuyi was worried that Yao Gui would be angry, so she patted his back to comfort him. Then she pointed to a few familiar faces among the housekeepers.
Hearing that she had asked Zhang Quan to stay, Yao Gui frowned. “He made the yam congee today, right? How careless, why would you want to keep him?”
“No, father,” Ming Liuyi explained, “Zhang Quan is in charge of lunch and dinner.”
Yao Gui did not say anymore and left with the rest of the housekeepers.
Yao Ziyang did not say a word. He knew that this was only the start of a challenge he had to endure. There was no way Yao Gui would let him off the hook. However, he was not afraid. No matter what Yao Gui would say or do, he would always have a backup plan
However, Yao Gui did not say anything until they reached the company. He just closed his eyes and rested. This made Yao Ziyang’s heart beat a little faster.
The moment the car stopped, Yao Gui’s sharp eyes suddenly opened. To Yao Ziyang, that gaze was like a sharp sword, making him feel like he was sitting on pins and needles. He did not dare to reveal any flaws, because he knew Yao Gui’s methods too well.
Unexpectedly, Yao Gui only said, “You’ve been working hard recently.” After that, he got out of the car.
Yao Ziyang heaved a sigh of relief. He wiped the sweat off his forehead and did not speak for a long time.
After Yao Gui and the others left, the villa was finally restored to its harmonious atmosphere.
Ming Liuyi, especially, felt more relaxed. It could only be said that Yao Ziyang had underestimated his enemy.
She saw that Yao Zizhou’s body was covered in a thin layer of sweat from the acupuncture session. After his sweating had gone down, she quickly arranged for a housekeeper to give Yao Zizhou a proper bath. Before this, he had only been wiped down. Ming Liuyi took this opportunity to give him some spiritual water.
Ming Liuyi got a housekeeper to help prepare the bath. After Yao Zizhou was placed in the bathtub, Ming Liuyi asked the housekeeper to leave. She had covered her eyes with both hands, but still could not resist peeking at him through the gaps between her fingers. She saw that the man in the bathtub was already covered in bubbles, which prevented her from seeing Yao Zizhou’s body. Ming Liuyi immediately let out a sigh of relief.
Although they had slept together on the same bed, and she had touched him, she was really unprepared to see such a naked Yao Zizhou. She tried to draw more spiritual water for Yao Zizhou, but she could not concentrate. Maybe it was because of the high temperature, or Yao Zizhou’s strong presence...
The qi and blood in her body surged, and the heat in her body forced her to pace back and forth, but the more anxious she got, the harder it was for her to concentrate. She had to go out for some fresh air. After a long while, she finally managed to produce half a cup of water from her spiritual spring. After that, she really could not concentrate enough to make more.
She opened the bathroom door with the cup in her hand and was shocked to see Yao Zizhou’s entire body sliding further down the bathtub. The bubbles were about to reach his nose!
Worried that he would choke on the water, Ming Liuyi quickly ran inside. However, she was more of a liability in her panicked state. Just as she was one step away from the bathroom, she slipped and fell into the bathtub before she could react, causing her to end up on top of Yao Zizhou.
As expected, Yao Zizhou was... flawless.
But Ming Liuyi did not have time to blush. She struggled in the water for a while and finally stuck her head out. But because there were too many bubbles in the water, her eyes got blurry. She ignored the blurriness as she fumbled around in the water and held Yao Zizhou’s arms, raising him up a little in the bathtub.
After that, Ming Liuyi was finally able to clean the soap out of her eyes. When she opened them, Yao Zizhou’s face was right in front of hers. The steam made his face look like it was glowing.
Ming Liuyi’s nose was only an inch away from Yao Zizhou’s. She could even see the fine hairs on his face. It was a good thing he did not open his eyes now, otherwise...
At that moment, the caregiver who attended to Yao Zizhou, Zhao Qiang, knocked on the bathroom door he heard the noises from inside. “Madam, do you require assistance?”
Zhao Qiang was a man of few words, but he was very meticulous in his work. He was also the one who routinely tended to Yao Zizhou’s skin care, which Ming Liuyi had previously neglected.
Ming Liuyi had not realized it before, but Zhao Qiang’s young male voice gave him the impression of being calm and reliable. After letting out a sigh, Ming Liuyi finally remembered that she had asked Zhao Qiang to leave the room earlier so that she could draw some spiritual water for Yao Zizhou... But where was the water? Ming Liuyi looked around and found the cup containing the spiritual water in the bathtub. The water must have all spilled into the bathtub as well.
Ming Liuyi patted her chest. Luckily, she was fine. She stood up and said, “You may come in and give the master a bath and a massage.”
Zhao Qiang heard her and entered the room. He saw the mess in the bathroom, but his eyes did not look at Ming Liuyi at all. He lowered his head and said to Xiao Fan, who was outside, “Fetch a bath towel for the madam.”
