“All Li, do you want to give it a try?” At this moment, Zhou Chao and Jiang Li had already returned from their walk and were soaking in the bathtub together.
“No.” Jiang Li shyly covered her face, and the part of her that surfaced turned slightly crimson.
“Just give it a try, okay? You’ll definitely like it!”
Seeing that Jiang Li seemed to be loosening up a bit, Zhou Chao embraced her and whispered softly in her ear, “Just give it a try.”
Jiang Li seemed to have a trace of curiosity, thought for a moment, and finally nodded shyly. “Okay, but please be gentle, I’m afraid it might hurt.”
“Don’t worry, you’ll definitely enjoy it!” Zhou Chao then stood up from the bathtub, took something from the nearby cabinet, and quickly removed the packaging.
Holding it in his hand, Zhou Chao stepped back into the bathtub, looking excited as he said to Jiang Li, “Let’s begin!”
“Mmm,” Jiang Li’s words still carried a hint of shyness.
“You should lie down first!” Jiang Li gave Zhou Chao a playful look, then lay down at the edge of the bathtub. Zhou Chao took the thing he had previously retrieved and put it on his hand.
“It might be a little painful at first, but it will feel very comfortable soon!”
“Brother Chao, go ahead!”
“Alright!” Zhou Chao began to gently scrub Jiang Li’s back. Yes, what Zhou Chao had put on his hand was indeed a scrubbing towel. He soaked it in water and then began to carefully scrub Jiang Li’s back.
“How does it feel? Comfortable, right?” Zhou Chao couldn’t help but put a little more effort into his hand movements. Before long, Jiang Li’s entire body had turned red. From her back to her thighs and then to her front, Zhou Chao thoroughly scrubbed every part of her. Jiang Li had already collapsed into Zhou Chao’s arms.
“Why don’t you scrub my back too?”
“I don’t want to, you naughty!”
The two of them got up from the bathtub, quickly rinsed off, and put on their bathrobes before leaving the bathroom.
“Brother Chao, 1 really feel so relaxed now!”
“As long as you like it. We can try it again next time!”
“You’re quite optimistic. Let’s go to bed; it’s getting late!” Zhou Chao checked the time and saw that it was already close to 11 o’clock.
“Mmm, let’s go to sleep!” The two of them lay in bed, Zhou Chao turned off the lights and then held Jiang Li tightly in his arms.
“Brother Chao, are we heading back this early?” Jiang Li was awakened by Zhou Chao early in the morning. She gazed at him with drowsy eyes, oblivious to her uncovered self.
“It wouldn’t be right to go back empty-handed. We should buy some gifts.” Zhou Chao got up from the bed, changed into casual sportswear, and took a moment to admire himself in the mirror.
“Alright.” Jiang Li saw Zhou Chao getting up from the bed and opening the bedroom door to head downstairs. He planned to prepare breakfast to fill their stomachs later.
By the time Zhou Chao finished making breakfast, Jiang Li had already freshened up and changed into matching sportswear, just like the couple’s outfits they had worn before.
“I just finished making it, and you’re already down here. Come and eat!” Zhou Chao placed the sandwiches and hot milk he had prepared on the dining table.
Jiang Li took a bite of the sandwich, savored it for a moment, and then asked, “Mmm, Brother Chao, why does everything you make taste so delicious?”
“It can only mean that your husband is a great cook!” Zhou Chao had a smug expression on his face, making Jiang Li feel like she shouldn’t have praised him earlier.
“You shameless!”
Zhou Chao touched his own face and said with a look of grievance, “Oh, so this is what it feels like to be jealous!”
Jiang Li rolled her eyes at him and decided to ignore Zhou Chao. She focused on eating her sandwich, which she finished in no time. She looked at the empty plate and then at Zhou Chao with watery eyes.
Zhou Chao, feeling helpless under Jiang Li’s gaze, said, “There’s more in the kitchen. Go and get it yourself!”
Jiang Li immediately stood up from her chair and walked quickly into the kitchen, leaving Zhou Chao looking a bit puzzled.
“Brother Chao, 1 think you should hire a maid!” Jiang Li carried a plate of sandwiches as she spoke, eating as she went.
“A maid? That might be a good idea. If we’re not at home, Shoufu has no one to look after him, and the house won’t be cleaned. If we’re away for a month or two, I’m afraid Shoufu will become a stray cat again!”
“Yeah, it’s better to have someone at home.”
“I understand. I’ll arrange it as soon as possible.”
“Okay.”
Zhou Chao looked at Jiang Li’s plate, which held three sandwiches, and felt like he had a flock of crows flying over his head.
“Can you finish all that? It’s a lot!”
“I can’t finish it all!” Jiang Li said with a mouthful of food and then added, “But I have you!”
In the end, Jiang Li only ate one sandwich, leaving two for Zhou Chao. He reluctantly finished the remaining two sandwiches.
“Let’s go; it’s getting late!” Zhou Chao checked the time and decided it was time to head to the mall to buy some better gifts.
“Let’s go!” Jiang Li, acting like the big sister, waved her hand and headed towards the garage. Zhou Chao chuckled at Jiang Li’s earlier behavior and followed her to the garage.
Zhou Chao drove straight to the largest commercial complex nearby. He wasn’t sure what to buy as a gift, so he turned to Jiang Li for guidance.
Seeing Zhou Chao’s pleading eyes, Jiang Li waved her hand and said, “No problem, you can count on me!”
They quickly arrived at Yida Plaza, and Jiang Li took Zhou Chao to a store specializing in skincare products. It was crowded, and Jiang Li swiftly selected a series of gift sets. Zhou Chao didn’t understand much about it; all he knew was that it cost more when he paid.
After nearly an hour of shopping, they bought a lot of things, and Zhou Chao didn’t pay much attention; Jiang Li was in charge throughout.
“Alright, let’s go back home!” Jiang Li looked at the bags in Zhou Chao’s hand and her own, nodding in satisfaction.
“All Li, you didn’t buy these for yourself, did you?”
“How could that be? These are all for my parents and my grandpa!”
Zhou Chao looked at Jiang Li’s solemn expression and couldn’t help feeling that what she said wasn’t very convincing.
Zhou Chao didn’t dwell on it and headed to the garage with the bags in hand.
“Is your grandpa usually at home during the weekend?”
“I don’t know. Sometimes, my grandpa takes a break at home on weekends, but 1 can’t guarantee it. Do you need something from my grandpa?”
“Yeah, I have a few things to consult with him, no big deal. If he’s not at home, I’ll just call him later!”
“Alright, if you’re not comfortable asking, I can do it for you when the time comes!”
Zhou Chao looked at Jiang Li’s serious expression and felt a warm feeling in his heart.
“Don’t worry; it’s nothing major. Your grandpa can take care of the matter.
Don’t worry!”
Jiang Li didn’t ask further questions and instead stared out at the scenery with her little head resting on her hand.
“All Li, open the case in front of you and place the entry permit at the windowscreen.”
Jiang Li immediately opened her case and found the entry permit that her father had given Zhoi Chao.
Soon, Zhou Chao arrived at the courtyard. The guard at the entrance recognized Zhou Chao’s car and was prepared to follow the usual procedures. However, upon seeing the piece of paper on the car windowscreen, he allowed them to pass without any further checks.
“Mom, Dad! I’m back,”
