While she was sleeping, Mu Liang brought her to the bedroom, changed her clothes and then put her on the boat. He also brought the towels.
Mu Lan felt a sudden chill and noticed that a warm comforter was covering her legs. When she sat up, the comforter moved away from her shoulder and exposed her upper body. She immediately covered her body with the comforter and felt warmth.
"When did you wake up?" Mu Liang asked from behind. He bought two mugs of hot chocolate.
Mu Lan turned around to see Mu Liang was wearing bathrobe. "I just woke up. Do you plan on bathing in the cold water?"
Mu Liang smiled and handed her a mug of hot chocolate. "Drink it before it turns cold."
She obediently took it and sipped the hot drink. The warmth spread inside her body. "You changed my clothes. How come I didn"t notice?"
"You are a dead fish when you sleep." Mu Liang sat beside her and sipped on his hot chocolate. "You were tired."
Mu Lan agreed to his statement. "We don"t have much time left, so we have to give our best."
Mu Liang hugged her. "If you have too much pressure, ask for others help. This scientists are trustworthy. I wish I could help you but this is not my field."
"Don"t feel bad. You are a great help in other fields. She relaxed her body and said, "You didn"t answer my question. Are you planning on bathing in the lake?"
In response, Mu Liang silently put down half gla.s.s of hot chocolate on the boat and took off his bathrobe.
Mu Lan gasped and panicked. "Hey, you will catch cold!"
"O M G! Why is he so handsome when he is naked?" Her perverted eyes couldn"t move away from his muscled body.
Mu Liang soundlessly went to the lake and turned around. "I wanted to do this for a long time. Want to join me?" His tone was quiet and calm.
Mu Lan looked around. "Are you kidding? Who knows who is watching us right now."
Mu Liang bluntly said, "I will take off their eye b.a.l.l.s."
Mu Lan still didn"t agree. "What if I catch cold before I"m done with my work?"
"I prepared warm oil, cold medicine in advance…. And I will warm you up with my body." Mu Liang"s innocent words made her blush.
She turned her head elsewhere. "Who wants you to warm me up? Hmf!"
"Once you soak your whole body, you will feel good." Mu Liang said as he reached out his hand towards her.
Mu Lan hesitantly stood up, took off her silk gown and stepped in the water. The cold water made her s.h.i.+ver.
Mu Liang was mesmerized as he watched her taking off her silk gown. The white silk gown slid down from her body, revealing an exquisite pinkish white skin. In the moonlight, her body seemed to be glowing. Her movement was elegant as she touched his hand with hers and stepped into the lake.
She slowly came down and Mu Liang hugged her. "So beautiful!" He praised her in a hoa.r.s.e voice and pecked on her lips.
Mu Lan suddenly felt shy hearing him complimenting her so openly. "No one is going to watch us bathing here, right?" She was still restless thinking someone was watching them.
"No one would dare." Mu Liang gently moved her hair from her forehead, looking deeply at her. He couldn"t take his eyes off of her.
Mu Lan"s heart was beating faster. Her face was scarlet as she asked, "What"s there to look at? You see my face every day."
"What can I do? You look more beautiful each day. You make me fall for you every single time I look at you. I don"t want others to look at you." Mu Liang complained in a low voice.
"Honey mouth!" Mu Lan let out a shy smile. She encircled her slender arms around his neck and placed her head on his muscled chest.
Mu Liang was right. Mu Lan noticed that she wasn"t feeling cold in the water. Moreover, his body was scorching hot. The heat of his body was enough to warm her up.
Mu Lan closed her eyes and said, "It feels good."
"Hmm." Mu Liang stroked her back.
She felt his touch and suggested. "Let"s bath here often."
Mu Liang replied, "We can do it in summer. But in other seasons, we have to bath in the day time so that we don"t catch cold. We don"t need to worry that someone will look at us."
"Okay." Mu Lan nodded.
There was a silence. Both of them enjoyed the natural beauty.
Mu Liang sighed. "The moon is brighter tonight."
"It"s full moon, isn"t it?" Mu Lan asked as she heard his heart was beating rhythmically.
"Yes." Mu Liang answered shortly.
To see the moon, Mu Lan looked up from his embrace and turned half of her body to glance at the moon.
The silver light of the moon dyed her body. She looked like a fairy came late at night to bath in the lake with her lover.
Mu Lan"s gaze landed on the moon and she exclaimed, "It"s gorgeous!"
"It is." Mu Liang mumbled as his gaze trailed down from her head to the eyes, nose, pink lips, sharp jaw, slender neck, tempting collarbone, ample b.r.e.a.s.t.s, pink buds and…
Mu Liang cupped her right breast and took it up.
"Mnn!" His sudden movement made Mu Lan flinch. She let out an enticing moan.
Mu Liang didn"t hear her moan. His eyes fell on the small silver design of a snake which was glowing in the moonlit night.
He was looking at it as if he was hypnotized. Slowly it drawn him.
Mu Liang placed a light kiss on the mark. His b.u.t.terfly kisses became deeper.
"Hnn!" Mu Lan grabbed his head tighter and trembled in his touch. Her whole body grew hotter and it felt like she was on fire.
