CHAPTER 141: CHAPTER 138: IF YOU DON’T ANSWER, I’M COMING IN

Nangong Mo opened his mouth, looking at the girl’s body which had just one piece of clothing left... and the place where his hand was stopped...

Hmm, whatever he said at this moment, any words would seem pale and powerless in the face of the facts.

Yun Ran slapped his hand away and crossed her arms, glaring at him, "Nangong Beast, you rascal! Taking advantage of the girl while she’s asleep... you are shameless!"

Nangong Mo pursed his lips and weakly explained, "I just wanted to give you a bath, I didn’t intend anything else."

Yun Ran heard this, "You actually intended something else??"

Nangong Mo: "... I didn’t."

Yun Ran continued to glare at him, "Besides, don’t I have hands and feet to bathe myself? Why would I need you to wash me? You are clearly shameless! A beast! Without principles!"

"... You were asleep."

"Then why didn’t you wake me up?"

Nangong Mo pursed his lips and weakly said, "I saw you were too tired, so I didn’t have the heart to wake you."

Yun Ran snorted lightly, "Alright, I’ll reluctantly believe your nonsense for now."

"It’s not nonsense, it’s the truth."

"Shut up, say one more word and I’ll slap you!"

"..."

Naturally, Yun Ran wouldn’t let Nangong Mo stay in the bathroom; she drove him to the bedroom.

Nangong Mo was unusually obedient tonight, so much so that Yun Ran suspected he had done something guilty and felt he owed her, which is why he was being so well-behaved?

Soaking in the warm water, a feeling of comfort and relaxation spread through her body, making Yun Ran a bit sleepy.

In just an hour, the sky would brighten, and after a night of being tossed around in a net and then hung on a tree, the worst was that fall.

Falling from a two-meter-high tree into a two-meter-deep pit almost scattered her bones.

Now, soaking in the hot water, all the soreness in her body melted into deep sleepiness, making it hard to keep her eyes open.

Unconsciously, Yun Ran fell asleep against the edge of the tub.

Nangong Mo hadn’t gone far; he sat at the bathroom door, silently keeping watch.

At first, he could hear some splashing, but then it became increasingly quiet. Finally, if he listened carefully, the only sound in the room was the girl’s light breathing.

Nangong Mo furrowed his brow, was she asleep?

"Lin Wanyue?"

He raised his hand and knocked on the door, but there was no response from the room.

"Lin Wanyue, are you asleep?"

"If you don’t respond, I’ll come in?"

Still no response from her.

Nangong Mo hesitated for a moment, then decisively pushed the door open.

The water was already a bit cold, and there were only faint tendrils of mist hovering over the surface adorned with bright petals.

The girl was sleeping with her head slightly tilted, and the water had already risen past her fair and delicate chin.

Nangong Mo’s eyes tightened, and he quickly went forward, taking a towel from the screen beside him, he lifted her out of the water and wrapped her in it.

This time Yun Ran did not wake up; she seemed exhausted and very sleepy.

In her sleep, feeling his warm embrace, she instinctively snuggled closer, extending her arms to wrap around his neck, burying her head in his chest, and nuzzled gently.

Looking at the girl in his arms, the man’s deep eyes were filled with softness and warmth.

He secretly vowed in his heart never to tease her like this again.

He didn’t think the rope would break, and he didn’t think she would fall.

He had been careless; he truly deserved to be damn! When she woke up tomorrow, she could hit him all she wanted.

But knowing now was not the time for self-recrimination, Nangong Mo picked up the clothes beside him, clumsily yet carefully dressing her piece by piece.
