Neither of them spoke after that.

  After Qiao Jiusheng finished washing Fang Yusheng’s hair, she asked, “Do you want to take a shower again, or is that enough?”


  “I’ll soak for a while more.”


  “Okay.”


  Leaving Fang Yusheng alone in the bathroom, Qiao Jiusheng stood up and walked out.

  Their suite had an entryway between the bathroom and the bedroom, which had a locker on the left and a mirror on the right. Qiao Jiusheng quickly glanced at the person in the mirror. There seemed to be a hint of excitement on her face. She shook her head and said softly, “You’re not the person he loves at all.”


  His love at this moment was just a whim.

  Fang Yusheng could remain single his entire life for the sake of the girl in his heart. Qiao Jiusheng did not believe that she had the boundless charm to attract him in just a few months. Furthermore, even if she could get Fang Yusheng’s love so easily, it might not have happened because of her charm. She would suspect that Fang Yusheng had other motives.

  The sudden sound of the doorbell interrupted Qiao Jiusheng’s thoughts.

  She adjusted her nightgown and walked to the door. From the peephole, Qiao Jiusheng did not see anyone’s face except for darkness.

  The doorbell rang again.

  Someone was indeed outside.

  Qiao Jiusheng cautiously asked, “Who is it?”


  Silence reigned outside for three seconds, then an icy voice rang out. “An old friend, Yan Nuo, is here to meet my friend.” After a pause, the voice continued, “Is An there?”


  “Wait.”


  Qiao Jiusheng hurriedly ran back to the bathroom.

  “Fang Yusheng, someone’s outside…”


  Qiao Jiusheng’s voice got stuck in her throat.

  She stared at the beautiful man in front of her.

  Fang Yusheng was fully naked.

  His fair skin was a little red from the bath. It was just like the reddest and largest strawberry in the greenhouse. Anyone who saw it would want to run over to pick and eat it.

  Qiao Jiusheng’s ears and face turned hot.

  The person in front of her was also stunned.

  Fang Yusheng quickly regained his composure. His long hands touched the side of the bathtub and found a towel. Then, he quickly covered his lower body. The towel loosely hung on his waist as he asked Qiao Jiusheng, “What’s wrong?” His voice sounded a little flustered and not calm.

  Qiao Jiusheng pursed her lips and sighed out a mouthful of hot air. She then said, “Someone named Yan Nuo came to find you. He said that he’s your old friend.”


  Fang Yusheng said, “Let him in. I’ll be out in a while.”


  “…Oh.”


  Before leaving, Qiao Jiusheng glanced at him again.

  Unfortunately, he had covered it too quickly. And this time, only his exposed back could be seen.

  After eating her fill of the eye candy, Qiao Jiusheng stuck out her tongue and ran to open the door. When the door opened, Qiao Jiusheng had to raise her head to see the person outside.

  She estimated that this man was at least 1.9 meters tall.

  He looked like the personification of… serious.

  Standing outside the door was a tall, sturdy man who had a handsome face and a serious expression. It was obvious that he was of extraordinary status.

  “Hello.” If she had not known that this person was Fang Yusheng’s old friend, Qiao Jiusheng’s legs would’ve probably trembled on seeing him.

  Yan Nuo used his blue, cold eyes to look at Qiao Jiusheng. As if to express his friendliness, he smiled at her.

  Qiao Jiusheng seemed to see Hades waving at her.

  “An’s pampered wife?” Yan Nuo asked.

  Qiao Jiusheng was shocked by the word “pampered.”
