Peaceful Farm Life

Chapter 1994: Chapter 1995: Who Is He, to Make You Go to Such Lengths?

Previously, Huo Qingyi always served Su Yixing in bathing, Huo Qingyi had long seen Su Yixing’s body, and at times, Su Yixing would pull Huo Qingyi to bathe together, so at this moment, neither Su Yixing nor Huo Qingyi felt any discomfort.

The two were extremely natural.

Su Yixing sat in the bathtub, arms resting on the edge, letting Huo Qingyi wash him.

Huo Qingyi, without a word and extremely obediently, washed him.

Su Yixing lowered his gaze, watching Huo Qingyi bathe him, and halfway through the bath, he spoke: ”Qingyi.”

”Hmm?” Huo Qingyi stopped her actions and looked at him.

”Do you like your current life? If you do, you may continue to stay here.”

Huo Qingyi immediately replied: ”I don’t know if I like this life or not. I only know that the Building Master gave me to the Young Master again, so I will continue to be by the Young Master’s side and serve him.”

Listening to this, Su Yixing was not happy at all. She wasn’t willingly staying by his side; it was because Gong Juechen, the Building Master, had given her to him again, so she had to continue following him.

Angry inside, Su Yixing didn’t want to talk to Huo Qingyi anymore, lest she get angrier.

Once the bath was done, Huo Qingyi dried Su Yixing’s body and then dressed him.

Su Yixing only donned undergarments and didn’t let Huo Qingyi dress him further. Subsequently, he went to the bed and lay on Huo Qingyi’s bed.

”I’m tired.” Saying this, Su Yixing closed his eyes and began sleeping on Huo Qingyi’s bed.

Huo Qingyi paused, said nothing, quietly had someone move the bathtub out, quietly shut the door, and then checked the situation in Room Three next door.

The guest in Room Three had already moved to another guest room while Su Yixing was bathing; at this moment, there was a shop assistant cleaning inside.

Worried about waking Su Yixing, Huo Qingyi asked the shop assistant to clean quietly, to avoid making noise.

Curiously, the shop assistant asked softly: ”Shopkeeper, what’s the standing of the gentleman in your room that he commands such care and effort from you?”

Huo Qingyi simply replied: ”Speak less, do more.”

The shop assistant asked no more.

When night fell and seeing there was no movement in her room, thinking that Su Yixing might still be asleep, Huo Qingyi stood guard outside her door.

Her room, Number One on the second floor, was the innermost room, and earlier she had specifically used screens for seclusion, so unless one went around the screens, nobody would see her standing at the door.

”Come in.” Suddenly, Su Yixing’s voice came from the room.

Upon hearing it, Huo Qingyi obediently pushed the door open and went inside. She initially planned to light the oil lamps in the room, but Su Yixing stopped her: ”Don’t light the lamps, come here.”

Huo Qingyi obediently walked towards the bed, aided by moonlight, while asking: ”Young Master, aren’t you hungry yet?”

Su Yixing said: ”Not hungry.”

Seeing Huo Qingyi had reached the window, Su Yixing gave a tug, pulling Huo Qingyi down onto the bed and then, he embraced her.

”Don’t move, let me sleep a while longer.” He said, his tone almost a murmur, somewhat like he hadn’t fully woken.

Three months without being held by Su Yixing, Huo Qingyi felt a bit unfamiliar, her body slightly rigid, hesitated for a moment, then said: ”The door isn’t shut.”

Su Yixing said nothing.

Huo Qingyi hesitated again and then said: ”I’ll close the door and come back to accompany the Young Master in sleep.”

Although Su Yixing still didn’t speak, he loosened his arms holding Huo Qingyi.
