Chapter 879: Not convinced? Kill him (99)
Tian Jie himself had not expected that the moment he stepped in here, he would see such a... heart-pounding scene.
Her long hair was tied up high, revealing her swan-like, slender and white neck, which exuded a charming luster, like a finely crafted work of art.
A few strands of hair hung loosely, some of them clinging to her exposed collarbone due to the moisture. Water droplets slowly slid down the lines of her skin, like crystal clear pearls, making you want to follow the trajectory of the water droplets to explore the mysterious scenery under her immersion.
At this moment, Tian Jie only felt a ball of fire burning in his throat, feeling slightly hot, and his mind kept replaying her image and the faint smile in her eyes.
At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door, followed by the housekeeper's voice, "Miss Xue, who are you talking to?"
Following the butler's voice, the door was slowly pushed open. The butler looked around the room, but there was no one else except Xing Rong who was quietly soaking in the bathtub.
She soaked quietly in the water, and the foam on the surface rose and fell with her movements.
Xing Rong looked at her calmly, a faint smile on his lips, "I thought you couldn't hear me. I was just about to ask you to get me something to eat. I'm a little hungry."
The housekeeper nodded slightly with an apologetic look on her face, "I'm sorry, Miss Xue, I was distracted and didn't hear you clearly. I'll prepare it for you right away, please wait a moment." Before she finished speaking, she gently closed the door.
But after just a few seconds, the door was slowly pushed open a crack. The housekeeper cautiously poked her head out and quickly scanned the entire bathroom. After confirming that Xing Rong was the only one in there, her heart finally settled down a little.
"Miss Xue, is there anything you particularly want to eat?"
Xing Rong pretended to think, until she felt a slight tightening sensation around her waist. Then she slowly said, "Well... then bring me some cake and snacks, like fried chicken, and a cup of coffee."
Upon hearing this, the housekeeper nodded and said, "Okay, Miss Xue, I'll prepare it right away." As soon as she finished speaking, she closed the door and left.
Xiaowei starts providing off-site reminders: Hey hey hey, little star, the butler is gone~
The smile on Xing Rong's lips became more and more obvious. She gently patted Tian Jie in the water and said softly, "Okay, you can come out now."
Before he could finish his words, there was a loud splash, and the water splashed everywhere. The originally calm surface of the water was like a disturbed lake, and a huge wave was set off. Tian Jie suddenly rushed out of the water, bringing with him countless crystal water droplets.
The sudden and loud sound of water suddenly exploded in this small space.
Xing Rong, however, still sat steadily in the same place, holding on to both sides of the bathtub calmly.
The water droplets stirred up by Tian Jie were like countless tiny diamonds, flying rapidly in the air, and then slamming heavily onto the tiles, making a series of crisp and startling crackling sounds.
Warm water flowed down her bare shoulders. She subconsciously raised her hand to wipe away the water stains and foam on her face, and looked up at Tian Jie who was sitting up in the bathtub.
Eyes facing each other.
Her face was still shrouded in laziness and haziness, but her pupils were unusually clear, reflecting Tian Jie's soaked figure.
Xing Rong raised the corners of his mouth slightly, narrowed his eyes in a smile, and said teasingly: "Xiaotian, if you were a few years older, or if you were not my younger brother, you would probably have died here."
Tian Jie opened his mouth slightly upon hearing this, but the words he had been about to say suddenly vanished without a trace, as if under a spell. He stared at Xing Rong in a daze, speechless for a moment, completely unsure of what to say.
Just now, when he was in the water, his arms subconsciously wrapped tightly around Xing Rong's waist, and his body pressed tightly against her underwater body, fearing that he would float up and be exposed.
But when his hand touched Xing Rong's soft waist, his heart began to beat wildly.
That feeling was like a powerful electric current that instantly spread throughout his body, causing his body to involuntarily produce a violent tremor that came from the instinct of life.
And this shock seemed to be transmitted through Xingxuan's silky smooth skin, so clear that he could not ignore it.
