Chapter 65: Why Won't You Bathe with Me?
“That’s a secret; I can’t tell you just yet,” Zhou Lang replied. He wasn’t ready to reveal his ultimate secrets to Zhao Xiaorou, especially the protective measures he had set up in their rented apartment.
“Brother Lang, how long have you been working as Li Mengxue’s bodyguard? Why would she give you so much money? Could it be some of it is selling your body money?”
Zhao Xiaorou teased with a mischievous smile.
“Hah, your brother is an honorable cultivator—do you think this little bit of money is worth that?”
Zhou Lang joked.
“Li Mengxue and I have a strictly professional relationship: employer and bodyguard. You should know, your brother isn’t someone who is easily swayed.”
“Hmph, I think you’re more difficult than just not being swayed! This apartment is co-rented by the two of us, yet you bring other women here to spend the night,” Zhao Xiaorou pouted, clearly jealous. Although she was now Zhou Lang’s girlfriend, the number of women in his life still bothered her. And naturally, she couldn’t help but feel a little insecure.
“Xiaorou, I’ve already explained this to you. As a cultivator, I can’t have just one woman. Don’t stress over it. Here’s 20,000 yuan, take it as rent. As a man, I can’t let you be the one paying rent,” Zhou Lang said.
“Got it, Brother Lang. I won’t bring it up again. Don’t be upset,” Zhao Xiaorou quickly softened, putting on a pitiful expression. Although she had initially paid the rent when Zhou Lang didn’t have money, she had never expected him to repay her.
When Ye Qianqian tried to look pitiful in front of Zhou Lang, it disgusted him. But when Zhao Xiaorou did the same, she looked so delicate and endearing that Zhou Lang’s heart softened immediately.
“I don’t lack money now. Take this and use it for household expenses or buy yourself some clothes,” Zhou Lang said gently.
“Brother Lang, is that okay?”
Zhao Xiaorou beamed with joy. Although her family was wealthy, she had left home with only a few thousand yuan and a handful of outfits. Like most girls, she loved shopping, and hearing Zhou Lang offer money for clothes made her ecstatic. Since it came from someone she cared about, it meant even more.
“Do you think I’d joke about that?”
Zhou Lang laughed. He appreciated Zhao Xiaorou’s innocence and honesty. Being around such a beauty made him feel at ease.
“Then let’s go shopping together sometime. Brother Lang, you’re so good to me!”
Zhao Xiaorou exclaimed, rushing over to kiss him on the cheek, even though her mouth was still greasy from eating. Zhou Lang chuckled helplessly.
“Finish your meal first. I’m going to take a shower and then start training.”
“Brother Lang, do you think I’m pretty?”
Zhao Xiaorou asked, tugging on his arm as he started to leave.
“Of course, you’re beautiful,” Zhou Lang replied absentmindedly, unsure of where the conversation was heading.
“Then why do you only bathe with that half-blood beauty Ivanova and not with me?”
Zhao Xiaorou asked, her tone bold and playful.
“So, she knows about that night with Ivanova,” Zhou Lang thought, feeling both amused and a little awkward.
“This girl looks so innocent, but when she gets bold, she’s quite the force to be reckoned with. She’s something!”
Zhou Lang laughed inwardly.
“Why aren’t you saying anything? Is it because I’m not as pretty as she is? Not as sexy? Not as well-endowed?”
Zhao Xiaorou teased, puffing out her chest a little.
With that small move, her ample chest swelled impressively, sending waves of temptation.
If Ye Qianqian could easily captivate men, then Zhao Xiaorou was a goddess—an unmatched beauty. No man could resist her charm, Zhou Lang included.
“You two are about the same in terms of figure. The main reason is you weren’t officially my girlfriend yet,” Zhou Lang smiled. With such a stunning beauty practically offering to bathe with him, only a fool would refuse.
“But I’m your girlfriend now,” Zhao Xiaorou said softly.
“Well, you should at least finish your dinner first. You can’t eat and take a bath at the same time, right?”
Zhou Lang chuckled. The truth was that he was looking forward to bathing with Zhao Xiaorou, but he was also concerned about losing control and potentially affecting his future cultivation. The threat of the Shangguan family was still looming.
“How much longer will that take?”
Zhao Xiaorou giggled, quickly finishing the rest of her meal in just a few bites.
“Wow, this girl’s in a hurry!”
Zhou Lang thought, feeling a bit overwhelmed.
…
A minute later, Zhou Lang and Zhao Xiaorou entered the bathroom.
“Brother Lang, don’t forget to brush your teeth,” Zhao Xiaorou reminded him, her face slightly flushed.
“Is she planning to kiss me? Is that why she wants me to brush my teeth first?”
Zhou Lang’s heart raced at the thought. He immediately went to brush his teeth.
Soon, both of them had brushed their teeth and began undressing for the bath.
Since Zhao Xiaorou had been training earlier, she was covered in sweat. Before she even took off her clothes, she started spraying herself with the showerhead.
In just a few seconds, she was soaking wet.
She was only wearing hot pants and a camisole, and as her body got wet, the thin fabric clung tightly to her skin, revealing the color of her underwear and outlining the shape of her little white rabbits.
The scene in the bathroom—a man and a woman alone, with her wet clothes clinging to her body—was straight out of a steamy romance movie.
Zhou Lang was about to take off his shirt, but when he saw Zhao Xiaorou soaking wet, he couldn’t help but react. He thought to himself that her figure was just as enticing as Ivanova’s. It made his blood boil!
“Brother Lang, why haven’t you taken off your clothes yet? Don’t you want to, or do you find me less attractive than Ivanova?”
Zhao Xiaorou pouted and asked, biting her lip.
Her expression, combined with a slightly resentful tone, was incredibly seductive and alluring, making Zhou Lang even more flustered.
“Girl, stop tempting me. Once we take off our clothes, there’s no telling if either of us will be able to hold back. We might end up crossing that line,” Zhou Lang said with a faint smile.
“I’ve already decided to be your woman, so… of course, I’m willing to give you everything…”
Zhao Xiaorou lowered her head shyly, her voice soft and bashful.
Her words were a clear invitation. As a normal man, Zhou Lang couldn’t resist any longer. He grabbed Zhao Xiaorou and pulled her wet body into his arms, pressing his lips to hers.
She responded instinctively, wrapping her arms around his neck and returning his kiss with equal passion.
Though Zhao Xiaorou seemed innocent, deep down she was bold and strong-willed. That’s why she dared to ask why Zhou Lang had bathed with Ivanova but not with her. But now, as Zhou Lang kissed her, her mind went completely blank.
“So this is what a first kiss feels like?” she thought, savoring the moment.
After a long while, Zhao Xiaorou finally started to come back to her senses, cherishing the taste of her first kiss, which she had kept for over twenty years.
