Endless Pampering Only For You

Did he go out of his way to buy strawberry-flavored ones because he knew that she liked it?

The redness on Mu Xiaoxiao’s face intensified as she thought about that.

Just then, she heard the sound of approaching footsteps. That should be Yin Shaojie returning with a hairdryer.

Mu Xiaoxiao panicked instantly. If he noticed how red her face was, wouldn’t he know that she had opened the drawer?

Thus, she quickly darted into the shower.

Yin Shaojie heard the sound of the shower door close just as he stepped into the room.

“Xiaoxiao?” he called out to her, puzzled. He looked in the direction of the nightstand subconsciously. Could it be that she had made use of his absence and peeked inside?

He walked over and knocked on the door of the shower. “I’ve got the hairdryer. What’re you doing inside?” he asked.

“I… Can’t I go to the toilet!” Mu Xiaoxiao answered, her face still red. She then leaned over the sink and doused her burning face in cold water.

She finally came out after a few minutes.

A pajamas-clad Yin Shaojie was leaning on a pillow on the big bed, looking at his phone.

Seeing that his attention was not on her, Mu Xiaoxiao breathed a sigh of relief. She then took up the hairdryer that was on the table and began to dry her hair.

Yin Shaojie looked up from his phone discreetly and took a glance at her before adjusting his expression to one of nonchalance.

Mu Xiaoxiao’s hair was only a little damp at the ends, so it dried in almost no time at all.

Once she got onto the bed and settled down, Yin Shaojie said, “I’m going to switch the lights off.”

“Okay.”

The lights went off, leaving the room in complete darkness.

Yin Shaojie seemed to notice something and looked over at her. He saw a dark silhouette laying really far away from him, and it looked as if she was about to drop off the edge of the bed.

He frowned. Why was this girl sleeping so far away?

“Oi, sleep closer; you’re about to fall off.” His alluring voice sounded deeper and even more mesmerizing in the darkness.

Mu Xiaoxiao wanted to pretend that she hadn’t heard him, but she remembered his tyrannical personality and scooted closer just a little bit.

Yin Shaojie narrowed his eyes. She looked like a squirming caterpillar.

Was there really any difference between moving that little and not moving at all?

The pair had always slept together in the condominium. Because Mu Xiaoxiao had a bad sleeping posture, she always ended up in his embrace when she woke up in the morning.

Perhaps he was too used to them cuddling with each other, for he felt that it was weird that she was so far away from him.

This time, Yin Shaojie reached out unhesitatingly and pulled her into his embrace.

“Don’t move!” he said unhappily when he realized that she was trying to move away.

Mu Xiaoxiao stopped moving at his command. Her body felt stiff as her face became increasingly hot.

W-What was he trying to do?

Was he going to…

She didn’t dare to think further — it was too embarrassing!

“Yin Shaojie, don’t you dare…” Don’t you dare do anything weird!

Before she could finish her sentence, Yin Shaojie pressed her head against his chest. “Stop talking. Go to sleep,” he said.

Mu Xiaoxiao was speechless.

The atmosphere in the room relaxed at once, its tranquility heightened by the night.

Mu Xiaoxiao’s ear was pressed against his muscular chest. Not only could she feel the warmth of his body heat, but she could also hear his powerful heartbeat clearly.

Ba-dump, ba-dump, ba-dump…

Mu Xiaoxiao listened to it as though she was hypnotized. It gave off a soothing feeling, and she liked the sound of it.

After an indeterminate amount of time.

Perhaps it was the excessive warmth of his embrace or his steady hypnotic heartbeat, but she soon fell into a slumber.

She entered a dreamland of pink, strawberry-shaped bubbles.
