When Love Turns the Tables: The Mysterious Husband's Chase

Zhou Chengchen wrapped herself in Xi Siyan’s clothes, but the school uniform underneath was also wet, and she was still shivering with cold. He was only wearing a thin school uniform, and his whole body was about to freeze, but there was still no expression on his face.

They walked one after the other, after a while, turned into an alley, Xi Siyan took out the key to open the door, only then did Zhou Chengchen realize that they seemed to have arrived at Xi Siyan’s home.

"Is this...?"

"I live here."

Xi Siyan reached out and turned on the hot water heater in the bathroom, then took a clean bath towel from the wardrobe and handed it to Zhou Chengchen: "Wipe yourself off first, take a hot shower later to avoid catching a cold."

This old house was very shabby, but the heating inside was indeed sufficient, probably because most of the people living around here were elderly.

Zhou Chengchen sat on the chair, took off Xi Siyan’s coat and her own already wet school uniform, wrapped herself in the bath towel, and felt much warmer.

After a while, Xi Siyan went into the bathroom to check the water temperature. He deliberately let it heat a little longer, and only when he felt the temperature was enough did he let Zhou Chengchen go in.

"This side is hot water, that side is cold water, don’t turn the wrong one."

"Oh."

Xi Siyan gave simple instructions and moved out, Zhou Chengchen stood in the small bathroom, her own bathroom was five times as large as this, but at the moment the warm water hit her cold skin, Zhou Chengchen felt it was the most satisfying moment.

More satisfying than soaking in that white big bathtub at home.

The warm water pushed away the chill in her body, Zhou Chengchen picked up the body wash and shampoo beside her to look at them. She didn’t recognize the brand but it was the familiar lemon scent, similar to the one on Xi Siyan.

Silently remembering the brand, Zhou Chengchen thought, she would use the same one as him when she returned.

After Zhou Chengchen went to take a shower, Xi Siyan took the keys and went out. After all, being near the school, even if a bit old, the area was still bustling with commerce.

Xi Siyan bought a set of clothes for Zhou Chengchen, then turned into a nearby chain supermarket. When he came out, his cheeks were a bit red, but he still seemed calm.

Returning home, he knocked on the bathroom door: "Clean clothes are outside."

After speaking, Xi Siyan walked into the kitchen and closed the sliding door.

When Zhou Chengchen came out, she was wrapped in a bath towel, wearing Xi Siyan’s large slippers on her feet. She took a glance at the bag at the door, and then heard the voice from the kitchen: "You can change in the bedroom."

Xi Siyan did not turn around as he spoke, keeping his back to her.

Zhou Chengchen took the bag into the bedroom, and only after taking out its contents did she belatedly realize a problem.

She was now alone at Xi Siyan’s house, and she had taken a shower there?

Although there was a reason, no matter how you looked at it, it still seemed a bit intimate.

Zhou Chengchen’s cheeks reddened slightly, despite her usual ease with colorful jokes, staying as calm as a seasoned pro. Yet, in reality, she was as pure as a blank sheet of paper, just like now, with nothing having happened, she was already as red as a little lobster.

Especially when she saw that inside the bag, besides the outer clothes, there were disposable, no-rinse undergarments, Zhou Chengchen felt a bit overwhelmed.

Oh heavens, oh earth, Xi, there’s really no need for you to be so considerate.
