Chapter 591: Don't Move!

The shirt was taken off, and Baili Xia discovered that Uncle’s neck and shoulders were all covered in ink.

She washed the towel clean and wrung it halfway dry.

Just as she was about to wipe him, she suddenly realized an unavoidable problem.

She hesitated a bit, then moved her lips, speaking under her breath.

“Uncle, could you… bend over a bit?”

She twirled her fingers, because his muscular chest was in her line of sight, even if she dared not look, she would inevitably see it.

Her small face flushed a little, “I… can’t reach.”

Mu Xiaojiu raised his eyebrows, looking down at her.

Only then did he realize, with his own height, having her wipe his neck and shoulders seemed to be quite difficult indeed.

“Little creature,” he hummed lightly, pulling over a stool to sit on.

Baili Xia pursed her lips.

Little creature?

What he really wanted to call her was probably a short melon, right?

In fact, people don’t think she’s short.

When she was in high school, she was around 162 or 163 cm tall.

Now that she’s in college, she might have grown even taller; she just hadn’t had a chance to measure herself properly yet.

Among girls, was she considered short?

She wasn’t short at all, okay?

It was just him who was too tall.

Why is he so tall?

He must waste a lot of the country’s food throughout the year with that height.

But now that Uncle is sitting down, the height is just right.

She picked up the towel and gently wiped his neck.

Baili Xia didn’t realize that the distance between the two of them seemed a bit too close.

So close, one standing, and one sitting.

If Mu Xiaojiu just lifts his head, he seems…

able to touch her still quite proud body.

The tip of his nose, all filled with her faint fragrance.

The unique scent that belonged to her, whenever he smelled it, always calmed his restless heart bit by bit.

Suddenly, he stretched out his hand around her waist and pulled her towards himself.

Baili Xia was startled by him, instinctively wanting to step back.

He didn’t let go, a low voice hoarsely passing on, “Don’t move!”

His arms tightened, leaving her with no room to retreat.

His voice was still hoarse but it was extremely charming.

“Don’t move, I promise I won’t take advantage of you,” he said.

Her body stiffened, and at this point, she really didn’t dare to move rashly.

Only her chest, due to her rapid breathing, was rising and falling dramatically.

Mu Xiaojiu closed his eyes, not wanting to look at the beautiful view in front of him, afraid that he wouldn’t be able to control himself.

He had promised not to take advantage of her, and he had to keep his word.

He just wanted to hold her, just at this moment, he suddenly felt that their time together was really warm.

So warm that it moved him inexplicably.

Having a woman by his side, gently taking care of him.

No matter how many storms there might be outside, no matter what he must face once he steps out of this door.

But at least, when he gets home and closes the door, there is her by his side.

Suddenly, he felt that even if the whole world were in front of him, it couldn’t be compared to the peace and contentment at this moment.

Because he’s satisfied, he can’t bear to let go even more.

He didn’t make any other moves, and eventually, Baili Xia also relaxed slowly.

She picked up the towel and continued to dab at the ink on his neck, bit by bit.

Watching his throat quiver slightly, feeling the unending heat radiating from his body.

For a moment, it seemed her heart also softened boundlessly.

Putting aside his forcing her to do things, this man really is amazing.

Being by his side, there’s a feeling of happiness.

Safety, peace of mind, tranquility.

This moment of holding each other, seems like two people who have weathered storms together, finally united in each other’s arms.

Peaceful and serene, could it always be like this?
