Chapter 5

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Ming Liuyi did not sleep well. She had a lot of dreams. When the sun shone on her face the next morning, she was forced to wake up.

“Ah!” Ming Liuyi opened her eyes and was shocked by the situation in front of her.

She was half-lying on Yao Zizhou’s body, her arm on his chest and her legs on his legs! What was even more terrifying was that her hand had actually reached inside his nightshirt and her fingers touched his warm skin.

Ming Liuyi suddenly rolled out of bed, but she unconsciously took the whole blanket with her. Perhaps it was because of the excessive movement, the hem of Yao Zizhou’s pajamas got lifted.

Ming Liuyi was wrapped in the blanket, her eyes staring unblinkingly at Yao Zizhou… because he was too good-looking.

The warm sunlight seemed to coat him in a layer of gold. The man’s pajamas were pulled open, and his abdominal muscles were faintly visible. And the two long and straight legs of his lower body… He was just lying there, inducing a feeling in people where they could not help but sink into distracting thoughts.

Ming Liuyi could not help but sigh. Was this the standard of a novel’s male lead?

Ming Liuyi’s face was a little red because she had a bold and inappropriate thought. She had never touched a man’s abdominal muscles before… She knew that he could not wake up at the moment, so she could not help her boldness. With a guilty heart, she reached out a sinful little hand and felt around the man’s exposed abdomen…

“Huh?” The moment she touched his body, the spiritual spring in her body actually started to fluctuate before she had the chance to properly feel his abdominal muscles! Ming Liuyi had to stop her exploration and close her eyes to adjust her breathing.

After a night’s rest–and who knew how many hours she had slept with Yao Zizhou in her arms–the dried-up spiritual spring was finally stirring. Although it was not flowing out continuously, Ming Liuyi knew that at this speed, her spiritual spring would definitely recover before the male lead woke up. This caused Ming Liuyi to smile…

Ming Liuyi might have been too excited, for she did not realize that a housekeeper had entered the room.

The housekeeper, Xiao Fan, stood at the door, dumbfounded. She saw Master Yao’s pajamas being pulled open, and the madam reached a hand inside with a satisfied smile on her face… When the master had been awake, Xiao Fan had also seen the madam treat him intimately. Why was she so energized when the master was in a vegetative state?

Having taken care of the master and madam for so long, this was the first time Xiao Fan had encountered such a situation. Madam Yao usually liked to stay in bed, but Master Yao woke up early, so he would summon them early to wait upon him.

After Ming Liuyi finished examining the spiritual spring, she felt better and opened her eyes. When she turned her head, she saw the housekeeper Xiao Fan, who was dumbfounded and at a loss for words…

In an instant, Ming Liuyi’s hand quickly retracted as though she had been electrocuted. Then, she awkwardly rearranged Yao Zizhou’s clothes and looked at the blanket on her body. She hurriedly pulled it out and covered Yao Zizhou. Finally, she tidied herself up, half-leaned against the head of the bed, and yawned like an upper-class lady.

After doing all this, she pretended to have just noticed Xiao Fan’s presence. “You’re here? Hurry up and help Master Yao wash up.”

Xiao Fan sensed that the madam was a little different today. Even her voice had become soft and tender, making people feel comfortable listening to her. ‘Madam, you don’t have to try so hard at acting! I’m not blind!’

Today was a new day for everyone.

It was Ming Liuyi’s first day living in the Yao family.

It was also Yao Zizhou’s first day as a vegetable.

As for Xiao Fan, it was her first day taking care of a vegetative person.

Ming Liuyi felt that Xiao Fan had it the hardest. After all, she had to take care of a vegetable. She watched as Xiao Fan carried the warm water and gently wiped Yao Zizhou’s face with a towel. But in the next second, Xiao Fan’s eyebrows furrowed slightly.

Ming Liuyi followed her gaze and saw that the sheets around Yao Zizhou were somewhat damp with sweat.

Xiao Fan was clearly hesitant about what to do.

“This kind of sweat will cause bedsores,” Ming Liuyi said straightaway. “Let’s turn him over.”

“Yes, Madam. I’ll go get someone.” Xiao Fan turned around and was about to call for someone…

But Ming Liuyi stopped her and held up Yao Zizhou’s shoulder. “I’ll hold his shoulders here, and you push from behind. Be gentle.”

But what Ming Liuyi did not expect was that Xiao Fan, who looked so thin, was actually so strong. With seemingly little strength, she turned Yao Zizhou onto his stomach.

Before Ming Liuyi could even pull back, Yao Zizhou’s entire body crashed into her chest, pressing her down on the bed.

Ming Liuyi’s face turned red…
