Chapter 950: Filled With So Much Warmth!
Even after that, he managed to keep a straight face, thanks to his many years of experience hunting in the hills.
Liu Duo felt a little awkward hearing him say that.
Very softly, she uttered, “You should have taken an oil lamp with you anyways. Really!”
Luckily she had not been up to no good, otherwise she would have been frightened out of her wits!
They had an emergency chamber pot on the fourth floor, exclusively prepared for Liu Duo. She had not needed to use the outhouse at night. They had another one for Liu Ran on the second floor.
The four brothers were not accustomed to using that, so they would usually head for the outhouse at night when the need arose.
Ye Yang always had a sharp sense of hearing. His lips curled up when he heard what his wife had just said, given that they were just inches apart.
Ye Yang said nothing as he bent slightly and took over Liu Duo’s bucket. He turned and ascended the steps towards the fourth floor.
Liu Duo did not question him and followed. It was nice to have some help.
She thought to herself, smiling, who knew Mr. Cold and Icy was filled with so much warmth!
Ye Yang stopped in his tracks when he reached the final step of the fourth floor. He placed the bucket on the ground and turned to face Liu Duo.
“Yang, take this oil lamp with you,” Liu Duo said, and pa.s.sed the object in her hand to him.
She thought it would be better for Ye Yang to have some light on his person. Even if he could find his way in the dark, it could help prevent incidents like what had happened just now.
Even though the likelihood of everyone using the outhouse at the same time was quite low, it was better to be safe than sorry.
Ye Yang glanced at the bright oil lamp. He did not accept it immediately. Instead, he stared intently at his wife.
Liu Duo impatiently looked back at him and his lack of action, but she found herself falling for his mesmerizing eyes.
“Y-Yang, what are you looking at me for? Is there dirt on my face?” Liu Duo averted her gaze bashfully.
Her hands went up to touch her cheeks.
Yang’s focused gaze was truly spellbinding.
Ye Yang just wanted to look at her a little longer before leaving. He felt it was never enough looking at her every day. She was that pretty!
He did not expect his wife to actually get shy about it.
He took over the oil lamp and, in his delightful voice, said, “Sweet dreams, Little Duo.”
He patted her head affectionately with his free hand, then he turned around and walked slowly down the stairs.
Ye Yang might not have delivered the bucket directly to its destination, but Liu Duo understood that he did not want Ye Ling to feel embarra.s.sed. After all, he was fully naked on the bed under a thin covering. He was p.r.o.ne to shyness.
She waited until the light from the stairway had completely faded before her hands went up to feel the heat on her cheeks. “Yang sure knows how to make people feel good! I love it.”
Shyly, she lifted the bucket and entered the room.
“Duo Er, was that Yang just now? He brought it up for you, didn’t he?” Ye Ling said as he watched Liu Duo walk into the room.
He heard Ye Yang’s voice just now. It was not very loud, but he still heard it.
“Yes, that’s right.”
Liu Duo set the bucket down beside the bed, wrung the wet towel, and began wiping Ye Ling with it. “Ling, I’ll wipe the sweat off your face first then move on to your body.”
“Let me do it.” Ye Ling sat up.
Only his private part was covered by the thin blanket. His upper torso was bare.
