Chapter 208 - 207: Whispers In The Bath-II

Li Lian's feet stoped from walking when she reached to the door that was opened without a lock. Her hands turned sweaty and she wiped the sweats to her pajamas. She inhaled a breath in, and her lungs accepted the air only for a few seconds as it was quick for her lungs to depleted with her pounding heart chasing away her heartbeat.

After some times, she finally placed her hand to the round knob, turning it very slowly, she felt like a person who was about to ride a roller coaster. The roller coaster she would be getting on this time, was a roller coaster of emotions. Pushing the door, Li Lian dragged her feet to enter the bathroom.

Li Jun Wei finally seeing the feet he waited to come in, leaned his head to the bathtub he was leaning in and smiled with a slight mischief. "Come in." he said, and his words echoed in the bathroom, it was as if there were three Li Jun Wei talking to her which was not good as she wasn't able to calm down or perhaps she would even die out of heart attack if there were three Li Jun Wei. His invitation sounded alluring to Li Lian's ears. She didn't know if it was because of the situation she hadn't expected which she would be entering to or was it because of the wild thoughts she had put a stop on.

By dawdling she hope she could prolong more time until Li Jun Wei changed his mind but it didn't seem like it would happen even if morning come. There was also the thought that she couldn't let him soak in the bed for hours and catch a cold. With that in mind, she entered, her hand was still holding the round knob that in case of something happen, she could escape... but she didn't want to escape.

Li Lian was getting weary and conflicted with her own thoughts.

Li Jun Wei had his black eye staring for a long time at her face to see her looking down at the wet floors, avoiding to look at him. Mischief played a part to Li Jun Wei's urge to push her a little more to the edges of her seat. If she falls, Li Lian didn't have to worry because he promised he would sweep her off from her feet if she falls down.

"Do you know which shampoo I use?" Asked Li Jun Wei, bringing her out of her thought that work as her eyes finally lifted up from the ground to him.

Li Lian who had been staring at the floors held her hand in front of her waist. The bathroom in Li Jun Wei's room was considerably large. By large Li Lian means, it was wide like a single room. That would almost wasn't weird for a King sized bed to fit in the very room. From the door, there was a straight passage to the large bathtub. The level of the floor was higher for the bathtub to be made inside it, waters was filling the bathtub up to Li Jun Wei's neck and a plane of his chest was showcased. His skin was flawlessly white, a little tanned andwas well-built. She didn't stared at it for too long because she didn't want to turn into a grisly mess from staring at him for too long.

"I think I know..." Li Lian trailed. There was only two types of shampoo in the bathroom. One that was used by Li Jun Wei and her own shampoo. She had realized and studied the shampoo since she first borrowed Li Jun Wei's bathroom just two days ago and known which shampoo was his. "The black one, isn't it?"

"It is." Li Jun Wei found it hard to resist from chuckling when he saw the flushed expression on her cheeks. The steam in the bathroom was unnecessary thought Li Jun Wei. It was covering Li Lian from his eyes to admire the view.

To Li Lian, however, the steam was like a Godsend, saving her from the blood to fill her head.

"I do think you should take off your clothe, Li Lian." and at his words, Li Lian's eyes widened at him, she heard him adding, "You will be using the same clothe to sleep, I wouldn't want to bother you by changing your clothe and also I'm worried if you catch a cold."

"B-But if I change my clothe, what should I change it to?" Was there a clothe that is water resistant in this very room? If there was, it would be a great help, thought Li Lian.

"There isn't but you could just come in with your undergarments. It avoid some water which is a plus point." Hearing this was enough to stop Li Lian from coming closer to him, instead he saw her took her steps back until her hand find a wall. Her lashes fluttered. Was he asking her to be n.a.k.e.d?! Here? Right Now?

It seemed that Li Jun Wei was trying to bully her today, pushing her to the cliff and pulls her back. And he had done it perfectly. His words were effecting her and he beet red cheeks told him what he had done to him soundingly.

"I-I'm not ready to do that." Li Lian said in whisper but enough for her words to be heat because she wouldn't want him to request her in a louder voice. "I will come in with my clothes on and try not to get wet."

Li Jun Wei hummed with a nod of his head, "Okay. However, I've reminded you." Li Lian only heard him agreeing with her words, loosing the rest of his sentence to her loud heartbeat. Her steps quickened as she climbed over the stairs which was made for one to enter the bathtub. When she reached to the right end, on top of his head, she bent her legs and positioned it in her most comfortable seat. Taking the shower head, she turned the faucet and felt the temperature of the water against her hands. Seeing that it was a little cold, she asked him, "Do you like cold, hot, or warm water, Jun Wei?"
