After being done with some real work, Mu Qian finally became honest and let Huo Jinxi hold her and soak in the warm bathtub. She leaned lazily against his chest and closed her eyes for a nap.

Huo Jinxi put one hand on the bathtub wall and the other hand plucked the wet hair between her neck, then came to her ear again and said softly: "Are you still satisfied?"

Mu Qian was confused and didn't react for a moment to what he said, "Hmm?"

"Aren't you afraid that I don't have energy?" Huo Jinxi said, "I don't know if my energy is satisfied with you?"

Mu Qian suddenly snorted, then paused and said, "The perfume you dipped in your suit smells so mature, at least the taste of a woman over forty years old, I have never been afraid!"

Huo Jinxi suddenly stretched out his hand and twisted her waist. Mu Qian screamed in surprise, turned around and threw herself into his arms, and then said, "I guess it's the smell of my second aunt, right?"

A woman over forty years old and who is still so close to Huo Jinxi, now Mu Qian can't think of anyone else except her second aunt Huo Yunping.

Huo Jinxi lowered his eyes and looked at her, snorted faintly, without any extra words.

This is the default.

Mu Qian couldn't help laughing, but she held it back. Then she slowly raised the sprained foot and said, "You can only accompany you with your second aunt. I'm different. I sprained my foot outside today. A handsome guy helped me rub it for a long time!"

Huo Jinxi suddenly reached out and pinched her ankle. After checking for a while, he turned to look at her, "Is that so? What kind of handsome guy?"

"You can check it out on Weibo, it looks like the hottest young man recently, and he looks so good when he smiles-"

Mu Qian said proudly, but suddenly realized something was wrong.

She tried hard to move her feet and tried to pull her legs out of Huo Jinxi's hand, but she was just ineffective.

"Hey! Let go!" Mu Qian couldn't help but say.

"What's the hurry?" Huo Jinxi spoke slowly, "I'll help you check the skills of your young man."

"Ahhhhhhh-gudu..."

Mu Qian couldn't stand Huo Jinxi's stimulation and suddenly shrank into the water, but felt unwilling to give up, so she grabbed Huo Jinxi and dragged him down the water.

...

After more than two hours of this bathroom, the two people finally returned to bed.

Mu Qian's hair was still wet, but she didn't want to move, so she handed the hair dryer into Huo Jinxi's hand, and she tilted her head and leaned against him.

This is probably the first time Huo Jinxi has served women.

But at this moment, he had no discomfort. He held the blowing air in one hand, held Mu Qian's head with the other, and slowly helped her blow her half-dry hair with the most comfortable temperature.

Mu Qian was probably comfortable being served and was confused. As soon as she closed her eyes, she never opened them again.

It was not until Huo Jinxi put down the blowing wind in her hand and saw her put it back on the bed that she suddenly laughed out loud, hooked Huo Jinxi's neck, and said, "Mr. Huo is good at craftsmanship, what kind of village did he work as an apprentice in a barber shop?"

Huo Jinxi glanced at her and said, "Go to sleep."

Mu Qian snorted, leaned into his arms again, and then closed his eyes.

Huo Jinxi turned off the lights and lay down.

In the darkness, the two of them were quietly blending, but neither seemed to fall asleep.

After a long time, Mu Qian finally spoke: "Lu and Chuan also went to Huai City today."

Huo Jinxi had long expected that she had nothing to say, so after hearing this, he just responded calmly.

"He also took a bouquet of flowers to see my dad."

"Um."

"Hehe..." Mu Qian gritted his teeth and sneered, "He really takes himself seriously."

After hearing this, Huo Jinxi asked calmly: "Is he who rubbed your feet for you?"

"He asked someone to help me with it." Mu Qian said, "I'm an old acquaintance who I asked for, and told others that I'm his precious daughter..."

Huo Jinxi stroked Mu Qian's hair and lowered her head and kissed her sideburns.

Mu Qian then said, "For a moment, I really felt that he was a bit like a father..."

"What happened after that moment?" Huo Jinxi asked.

"It's like it." Mu Qian said, "but it can never be."

Huo Jinxi stroked her back and said nothing.

"Huo Jinxi." Mu Qian suddenly called him again and said, "Don't worry, I'm awake."

After hearing this, Huo Jinxi just said, "Then go to bed."

Mu Qian put his arm on without responding.

For a moment, she felt amazing.

These words were stuck in her heart, making her feel less comfortable for the whole day. At this moment, Huo Jinxi had never said anything to comfort her. She just responded twice as she said, and her heart suddenly calmed down.

The quilt was stained with the temperature on his body, warm and comfortable.

And even a year ago, how could she think about the situation at this moment?

This man was the basis of all her emotions when she was young, and later, he became an abyss that she could not look back on.

But now, she could lie in his arms with peace of mind again and tell him her thoughts quietly.

At this moment, reality and the past seemed to overlap, and the youthful days she once thought she could never go back suddenly returned to her.

In the past, it was clearly the same. No matter how much she was confused and uneasy, his eyes or words could comfort her soul.

Now, so.

Mu Qian was quiet for a long time, and finally let out a "hmm" and buried it again in Huo Jinxi's arms. Then she finally fell asleep with her eyes closed.
