Xiu Gou's Taming Record

Chapter 122 Night Care

Yu Heng smiled and continued to tease her, "Although I sprained one ankle, the rest of my body is unaffected."

"Other places?" Qin Lu narrowed her eyes and understood immediately. "Be careful, or I'll make sure you sprain your ankle somewhere else too."

"That won't do," Yu Heng pouted, "You can bite, but you're not allowed to bite!"

"Not today," Qin Lu refused him seriously. "Qin Ya is going offline soon. We'll do it during the day next time."

Upon hearing this, Yu Heng did not insist and said with a smile, "Okay, whatever you say."

Qin Ya finished her broadcast and there was the sound of the door opening and her coming downstairs. Qin Lu almost immediately stood up from the sofa and straightened her clothes.

Yu Heng found it somewhat amusing; she hadn't even touched him, yet she was acting all nervous.

"I took Qin Ya back." Her voice returned to its usual flat tone.

Yu Heng leaned back on the sofa, looking at her: "You're leaving already?"

"Otherwise what?" Qin Lu glanced at him, "Stay here and listen to your witty remarks?"

"Mom, you're back?" Qin Ya shuffled over in her slippers and looked at Yu Heng. "Brother, how's your foot?"

"It's a ligament sprain; I'll need to rest for two weeks," Yu Heng said.

"Oh," Qin Ya nodded, then said meaningfully, "Then you should take good care of yourself and avoid strenuous exercise."

Yu Heng narrowed his eyes, ignoring Qin Lu's words in front of her.

Qin Lu cleared her throat: "Let's go home."

"Are we leaving already?" Qin Ya asked, a little reluctantly. "I wanted to stay a little longer..."

"Don't stay here, go back and get some sleep." Qin Lu had already headed to the entrance to change her shoes.

Qin Ya pouted and mouthed to Yu Heng, "She's so nosy. You teach her a lesson."

Yu Heng glared at her but didn't reply.

Qin Lu changed her shoes and stood at the door waiting for Qin Ya.

Qin Ya quickly put on her shoes, waved to Yu Heng, and said, "Brother, I'm leaving now. Take good care of yourself!"

The door closed, and the room instantly fell silent.

Yu Heng leaned back on the sofa, waves of throbbing pain coming from his ankle.

He picked up his phone and glanced at the time; it was almost nine o'clock, and Bai Xinran would be going off the air soon.

-

It was already 9:30 when Bai Xinran turned off the live stream and went downstairs.

She pushed open the door and walked into the living room, sitting down next to Yu Heng: "They've all left?"

"Yes, Qin Lu took Qin Ya back." Yu Heng put his phone aside. "Is the broadcast over?"

"Yes, I cooked a little earlier today." Bai Xinran sat down on the armrest of the sofa. "What did you have for dinner? Are you hungry?"

"I drank some water after coming back from the hospital, but I haven't eaten anything yet," Yu Heng said.

"Then I'll get you something to eat." Bai Xinran stood up and walked towards the kitchen. "Would you like some wontons? I have some frozen ones."

"Okay." Yu Heng watched her walk into the kitchen and open the refrigerator to rummage through it.

The sound of boiling water and the soft rustling of plastic bags came from the kitchen.

Bai Xinran was very efficient. In no time, she brought out a steaming bowl of wontons, topped with some seaweed and dried shrimp, and a few drops of sesame oil.

She placed the bowl on the coffee table in front of Yu Heng and handed him a spoon, saying, "Be careful, it's hot."

Yu Heng took it, scooped one up, and blew on it.

"Don't you eat it yourself?" he asked.

"I ate something before the broadcast, so I'm not hungry." Bai Xinran sat next to him, watching him eat. "I messaged my roommates and told them I won't be going back tonight. I'll stay here and take care of you. If they ask during room checks, they'll help me out."

"There's no need to stay here," Yu Heng said. "My leg is the only problem; everything else is fine."

"You definitely can't do it yourself." Bai Xinran shook her head. "Going to the toilet, getting things, washing up and such would be inconvenient. I'm here, just call me if you need anything."

Yu Heng smiled and continued eating his wontons. This girl is really well-behaved.

After he finished eating, Bai Xinran took away the bowl and spoon, washed them clean, and put them away properly.

When he returned to the living room, Yu Heng was trying to stand up on one leg.

"What do you need? Let me help you." Bai Xinran quickly came over and supported his arm.

"I'm not taking anything." Yu Heng used the support to steady himself. "I'm all sweaty from playing ball today, and I feel sticky and uncomfortable. I want to take a shower."

Bai Xinran looked at his feet: "Can you wash them yourself?"

"Probably not." Yu Heng said honestly, then smiled. "Will you help me?"

Bai Xinran paused noticeably, her gaze drifting away before returning, her lips moving slightly: "Alright... then I'll help you."

"Why are you getting more and more shy?" Yu Heng wanted to laugh a little. "Before, you dared to say anything to me, without any taboos."

Bai Xinran pursed her lips, her face still red: "Well, before it was all just talk, but now we have to do it."

Chatting and exchanging pleasantries is one thing, but the reality is quite another.

Upon entering the bathroom, the space immediately felt cramped.

"Sit down and wash," Bai Xinran said. "I'll go get a stool."

She brought in a plastic stool and placed it in the shower area.

Yu Heng slowly sat down, leaning against the wall, and stretched out his right leg on the non-slip mat.

Bai Xinran turned on the hot water, adjusted the water temperature, and steam gradually filled the air.

Yu Heng began to unbutton his shirt.

He moves slowly because it's inconvenient to sit.

Bai Xinran stood to the side, her eyes looking around, finally settling on the grout lines in the wall tiles.

Yu Heng took off his shirt, revealing his upper body.

He has a decent physique; not the exaggerated kind of muscles, but with well-defined lines.

Bai Xinran had certainly seen this before, but this was the first time she had been this close, and she was even going to have to do it herself!

Bai Xinran took a deep breath and squatted down.

Her hand touched the waistband of Yu Heng's sweatpants; the fabric was slightly damp, soaked with sweat.

Her fingers trembled slightly as she pulled down the zipper.

Yu Heng obediently lifted his hips, and she helped him pull his pants down to his knees.

She picked up the showerhead, tested the water temperature, and then turned around.

Keep your gaze focused above his shoulders.

The water flowed onto Yu Heng, wetting his skin.

Bai Xinran squeezed some shower gel into her palm and rubbed it to make foam.

They both paused for a moment when her hand touched his shoulder.

Her palms were soft, but a little cold.

Spread the foam from your shoulders to your chest, and then to your abdomen.

Yu Heng looked at her; her eyelashes were drooping and her lips were pressed tightly together.

She washed very carefully, as if she were completing some important task.

-

Neither of them spoke throughout the entire process.

After getting dressed, Bai Xinran's forehead was already covered in a thin layer of sweat.

I don't know if it's from being tired or something else.

"Go and rest," Yu Heng said. "I'll sleep on the sofa."

"You're going to sleep on the sofa?" Bai Xinran frowned. "That won't do. The sofa isn't comfortable, and it's bad for your back."

"It's more convenient to sleep here," Yu Heng said, looking at her. "Going up to the third floor is too much of a hassle."

Bai Xinran pursed her lips.

"You can sleep in my room," she said. "I'll sleep on the sofa."

Bai Xinran helped him into her room.

The room was very tidy, and the bed was covered with light gray sheets.

Yu Heng lay down, and Bai Xinran helped him cover himself with the blanket.

"Go to bed early," she said.

"And you?" Yu Heng asked.

"I'm going to wash up," Bai Xinran said. "Then I'll sleep on the sofa in the living room. It'll be convenient if you need anything."

She turned off the light and closed the door.

The living room was completely dark.

She went into the bathroom and took off her clothes.

My face was abnormally red in the mirror.

She turned on the cold water and washed her face.

But the heat on my face didn't subside.

She quickly took a shower and changed into her pajamas.

Lying on the sofa, she tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.

My mind is filled with the scene from just now.

She imagined his hand on hers, and him saying in a low voice, "Continue."

She felt that the day she would truly be recognized by God was not far off.
