Chapter 207 - 206: Whispers In The Bath-I

Li Lian gulped, she saw the light flickered over Li Jun Wei's deep black eyes to notice how he was clearly taken by her offer and didn't seem to be having a change to his mind. She hoped she could change her words maybe a little. She could have ask if he needed assistance not in bathing but massage, perhaps that was better as they were wearing clothes but bathing.

Li Lian gulped, her lips moved in a way Li Jun Wei saw and the more she realized he had been downing at her appearance made her want to retract her words even more. She admit she had want to see Li Jun Wei bathing but not directly. She didn't mean she would be helping him bath. Bathing shouldn't be a bad occasion. They were husband and wife. She loved him the way he did. But her heart wasn't prepared to help him bath. She wondered what does helping in term of bath do? How and what should she do? She never heard someone helping other's bath unless it was about children.

But this was different. Li Jun Wei is an a.d.u.l.t male and his body was very developed. His features was always sharp. A strong jaw and a high bone cheek, his nose bridge was high and there was the eyes he had which was gentle but powerful that if one had stared at his eyes for a long time, it would be hard not to leave an impression in their mind. His black hair was still combed back, letting his handsome face to stood out more and had her staring for a couple of second. Li Lian then wondered. If Li Jun Wei was already this handsome what about his body?

Her cheeks blushes and her mind began to heat up when she thought more than necessary. She looked fl.u.s.tered, the expression that Li Jun Wei noticed which had him pulling his smile wider. He rarely smile and found things worth to see again but to see Li Lian blushes was an experience he hoped to see.

"Are you going to help me?" came his question to confirm her words.

Seeing there was an opportunity, Li Lian tried to hoodwink her way out, "I guess that's a no? It's fine then, we could just sleep and you can take your bath tomorrow."

"Of course not, it's a yes." Li Lian was quick to find her way out shut down. "Thank you, I feel better you are there to help me." said Li Jun Wei and before Li Lian could think her way out, he had stood from the chair. His body turned, eyes looking at her, she heard him ask, "You're not coming? Or do you still want to sit here?"

Li Lian pursed her lips, feeling the seam of her lips dry, she wet her lips and shook her head. Her throat gulped again, feeling as if her whole body parch for no reason, she stood up. "No. Let's go." she replied with a determined voice despite the raise of her heartbeat that made her dizzy. Li Jun Wei could see how she was unnerved but despite it all, she still agreed even though he had left a very narrow path for her to say no and walk her way out. Like a bunny in front of a lion, Li Lian was too occupied by the term bathing and help that she missed the option to reject her.

"But I have to ask you what should I help? Honestly I don't know, It's my first time to help anyone in bath." She had never know there was even a term help for bathing and had never done any.

"Of course I know." he chuckled. Else like today Freuen's company director, those who was helped by Li Lian would meet an even worse fate than the man did today. "I will take a bath on my own then," she heaved a relief breath but also a sign of disappointment showed up in her heart, "You can help me wash my hair."

Li Lian looked at him. She didn't know whether she should smile happily for having a lesser level of bathing or that she should be nervous again.

"I will call you when it's time." he said and she saw his back walking toward the bathroom leisurely. When the door was clicked, she exhale a mouthful of breath she didn't know she had been holding tight earlier.

Li Lian sat there with her mind going awry. The longer she waited, her feet tapping the floor gradually increases. In the silence her ears were adept to pick up every sign she could hear from the bathroom. The bathroom was closed tight but that doesn't mean there was no sounds. Though little she could hear the sound of water and it only made her ruffled. She turned her head around.

Washing his hair seemed to be a lighter work to do perhaps she wouldn't faint after seeing him n.a.k.e.d as she could put her entire focus to wash his hair but in the bathroom she doubt he would be wearing anything.

Just then a voice came to her ears, "I'm done." and a clicking noise of the door opening followed after his words which make her nerves erratic. She wiped her forehead where she thought there would be a streak of sweats covering it when it was not that hot in the room and began to walk toward the bathroom.

In her mind, she was trying to be calm but when one try to be calmer they would become more fl.u.s.tered and the situation was no different for her now. What's wrong bathing? she asked herself, trying to convince her inner heart from being too loud. He is her husband, nothing should go wrong with a simple bath. Even if something did goes wrong, it shouldn't be a matter. Should it? Yet as much as she assured herself her heart was beating aloud. Out of nervousness and excitement she noticed to finally sink in to her.
