In the luxurious condominium.
Mu Xiaoxiao had just come out from the shower when Yin Shaojie took her place in the shower.
She curled up on the sofa, hugging a pillow to her chest as usual. In her hands was her phone, and she was using it to WeChat Lu Yichen, asking him why he didn’t return to the hospital after his exam.
Because Lu Yichen couldn’t type, he sent her voice messages — a rare occurrence.
“Actually, my arm’s pretty much healed already, so I don’t have to stay in the hospital all day. I only have to be careful of my right arm. The doctor also said that it was fine for me to go for a checkup once every few days.”
Mu Xiaoxiao put her phone beside her ear and listened to his voice.
Even though his voice was deep and a little cold, it was still very magnetic, the type that could move the hearts of girls just by listening to it.
Mu Xiaoxiao was attracted to pleasant voices. It was a treat to be able to listen to his voice, and she couldn’t help but listen to it again before replying to him.
“Take care then. If there’s anything, please tell me ASAP…”
They two chatted for about ten minutes.
While Lu Yichen was normally a taciturn person, he was still very accommodating and was talking to her on various topics, even though it was Mu Xiaoxiao who was talking most of the time.
Hearing the door to the shower open and seeing Yin Shaojie coming out as he dried his hair, she hurriedly whispered to her phone, “We’ll stop here then; I’m going to sleep. Goodnight.”
Lu Yichen’s voice message came just a few seconds after she sent hers. It was a two-second message saying goodnight.
That voice was so mesmerizing that she could fall asleep while listening to it.
However, Mu Xiaoxiao was not in the mood to savor it. Not wanting Yin Shaojie to see that she had been messaging Lu Yichen, she hurriedly opened Qiqing’s chat and typed a long message, pretending to be talking to her.
Yin Shaojie was drying his hair with his towel. He sat beside her and moved his handsome face close.
His magnetic voice was s.e.xier than usual as he said beside her ear, “What are you talking about?”
Mu Xiaoxiao felt her ear jolt.
She shrunk down in discomfort, not realizing that the tips of her ears had turned red.
“I was talking to Qiqing about the trip to the hot spring tomorrow… we started talking and the conversation just flowed from there. Hey! Can you not get so close?”
He smelled like soap from his shower earlier mixed with his natural scent.
“So what if I’m close?” Yin Shaojie looked dandiacal as he stretched a long arm across the back of the sofa behind her.
Mu Xiaoxiao looked at him in displeasure. “It’s rude to peek at people’s messages, okay?”
“I can’t be bothered with what you girls are talking about. Hurry up and get me the hairdryer.”
He pushed her as he sat there lazily.
Mu Xiaoxiao asked, “Why should I get you a hairdryer?”
Yin Shaojie threw the towel off and pointed at his hair. “To dry my hair, what else? Hurry up and get it!”
“Just wipe with a towel and let it sit there for a while. Your hair is so short anyway.” Mu Xiaoxiao exited WeChat and put her phone into her pocket.
Yin Shaojie stared at her and said dictatorially, “Are you going to get it or not?”
Mu Xiaoxiao had wanted to reject him stubbornly before she saw the look in his eyes. It seemed as though he was going to lunge at her if she said no.
She said, “I’ll get it, okay? Why are you so lazy? Pot calling the kettle black!”
She then got up from the sofa and charged her phone at the TV stand before bringing the hairdryer to him.
With an air of a Young Master, Yin Shaojie commanded, “Dry my hair for me.”
