Quick Wear: The Law of Salvation of Cannon Fodder

Chapter 191: The only one who loves the pretty husband 13

In the evening, Xie Qi boiled a large pot of hot water, and then found a broken wooden barrel at home and cleaned it.

Xie Qi then walked into the room carrying a large bucket of steaming warm water. He gently placed the bucket on the floor, then turned around and whispered to Lu Xingze, "Aze, wash yourself before going to bed."

After saying that, Xie Qi turned around and walked out of the room, slowly closing the door.

Afterwards, Xie Qi came to the kitchen. He took off his clothes, and warm water poured down from above his head, washing over his tired body.

In a short while, Xie Qi finished his full-body bath. At this moment, Xie Qi felt relaxed all over, as if all the stress had disappeared along with the water.

Lu Xing had also finished washing. After Xie Qi heard the noise, he stepped back into the room.

As soon as he entered the room, the first thing he saw was Lu Xingze sitting quietly on the bed, covered with a quilt, his hands tightly grasping the edge of the quilt, and his big eyes looking at him nervously.

He walked quickly to the bucket, picked up the cooled water, and walked steadily towards the door. After pouring out the water, Xie Qi turned back.

Xie Qi then walked to the table beside the bed and slowly sat down. He then reached out and began to pick up the items he had bought in town.

Xie Qi's eyes fell on the box of Snow Skin Cream. He picked up the cream, gently unscrewed the lid, and put it under his nose to smell it carefully. It had a slight fragrance, but the smell was not unpleasant.

Xie Qi reached out and scooped out a large piece of snow skin cream, and began to apply it carefully on his arms, cheeks and neck.

He did not leave out any area that was tanned by the sun, and carefully applied a thick layer of snow skin cream.

While applying the lotion, Xie Qi's heart was filled with worry. He wondered to himself when his tanned skin would turn white.

Xie Qi's series of actions aroused the curiosity of the people on the bed. However, although Lu Xing was full of doubts, he did not ask any questions. He just stared quietly at Xie Qi applying various things on his body.

At the same time, Xie Qi also keenly noticed Lu Xingze's focused gaze. So, he turned around, picked up another exquisite little box, and slowly walked towards the bed.

Coming to the bed, Xie Qi's face was filled with a warm smile, and he asked softly: "Aze, stretch out your hand, I will help you apply some ointment."

When Lu Xing heard this, he was slightly stunned, but still slowly stretched his hand out from the warm quilt.

When Xie Qi saw Lu Xingze's outstretched hand, he gently held the pair of fingers that were slightly cracked due to dryness.

Then, he very gently dipped some ointment and applied it on Lu Xingze's hand little by little. Every movement was so cautious, as if he was afraid of accidentally hurting the other person.

Xie Qi looked at Lu Xingze's dry, cracked hands, his eyes filled with pity. Perhaps unable to restrain his emotions, Xie Qi involuntarily lowered his head and placed a kiss on Lu Xingze's dry, cracked palm as light as a feather.

Xie Qi's gentle movements made Lu Xing completely stunned. He wanted to quickly pull his hand out of Xie Qi's.

However, the moment his eyes met Xie Qi's eyes, which were as deep as a pool of water, his thoughts changed.

For some reason, he suddenly didn't want to hide his hands, but instead longed for Xie Qi to cherish him.

"I will take good care of you." Xie Qi murmured softly, and this sentence sounded more like a solemn oath he made to himself.

Afterwards, Xie Qi dipped some ointment and evenly applied it to Lu Xingze's dry cheeks. Each touch was so gentle, like a feather touching the skin.

Xie Qi's warm palm slowly moved across Lu Xingze's cheek, and the delicate touch was transmitted through the skin to the bottom of each other's hearts.

The two of them stared at each other quietly. Without words, they could understand each other's thoughts with just a glance.

When Xie Qi finally helped Lu Xingze finish painting his face, time had passed quietly and the night was getting darker.

Xie Qi had originally planned to offer to sleep on the floor, out of concern for Lu Xingze's mood. But before he could say anything, Lu Xingze took the initiative and quietly shrunk towards the wall, leaving Xie Qi a spacious spot.

Xie Qi looked at Lu Xingze's slightly shy but determined behavior, and the words "I'll sleep on the floor tonight" that were just on the tip of his tongue were swallowed back into his stomach. After all, who would want to sleep on the floor when there is a bed to sleep on?

However, what Xie Qi didn't know at this moment was that when Xie Qi asked him to take a shower, Lu Xing thought that Xie Qi was planning to sleep with him today.

That's why he was very nervous after taking a shower, but when Xie Qi applied ointment to him, Lu Xingze's heart slowly began to accept it, and he could accept Xie Qi's approach.

When Xie Qi protected him in the house and he faced the Liu family alone, Lu Xingze completely accepted Xie Qi.

Until now, he still clearly remembers the feeling when Xie Qi closed the door.

What Xie Qi closed was not just a door, but his painful past where he was bullied every day in the Liu family and no one cared about him or protected him.

The moment the door was closed, Lu Xingze even felt that he would never see the Liu family who had caused him pain again for the rest of his life.

So when Lu Xingze guessed that Xie Qi might want to sleep with him, he didn't have much resistance in his heart. Lu Xingze thought silently that if it was Xie Qi, he would be okay with it.

However, at this moment, the entire room was shrouded in endless darkness, and the silence was so intense that it made people feel a little uneasy.

Lu Xing originally thought that Xie Qi would come over on his own initiative, but a long time passed and Xie Qi did not take the next step.

In the pitch black darkness, Lu Xing stared wide-eyed, his heart filled with confusion and bewilderment. He couldn't help but turn his head, trying to see what was happening around him, but the darkness was so thick that no matter how hard he looked, everything in front of him was still blurry.

After hesitating for a long time, Lu Xingze finally plucked up the courage and moved carefully towards the direction where Xie Qi was.

Just when Lu Xingze was about to get close to Xie Qi, the latter seemed to notice his actions.

Xie Qi gently reached out his hand, pulled up the quilt, and carefully covered Lu Xingze with it. At the same time, he asked softly with concern, "Do you feel a little cold?"

After all, it is now late autumn. Although the temperature is still pleasant during the day, the coolness will quietly come when night falls.

And Xie Qi just thought he was cold.

However, just after he finished asking with concern, he suddenly heard Lu Xingze ask softly: "Aren't you going to consummate your marriage with me?"

Lu Xingze's words came without any warning, catching Xie Qi off guard, and he almost choked on his own saliva and couldn't breathe.

He coughed violently twice, and even the tips of his ears felt slightly hot.

After finally stopping his cough, Xie Qi gathered himself and replied with forced composure, "There's no rush to consummate the marriage."

Hearing this, Lu Xingze showed a hint of doubt on his face and asked, "Then how long do we have to wait?"

Xie Qi thought for a moment and said slowly, "Let's talk about it after you recover."

Lu Xing blinked his eyes and continued to ask, "How long will it take to recover?"

Xie Qi answered without hesitation: "It will take at least three years."

Lu Xing couldn't help but widen his eyes and shouted in surprise: "So long? Why..."

Just when Lu Xingze was about to ask the reason, Xie Qi was afraid that he would ask some difficult questions, so without saying a word, he reached out and pulled Lu Xingze into his arms and hugged him.

Then, he said in a gentle yet slightly overbearing tone: "Don't ask why anymore, just go to sleep!"

Xie Qi felt Lu Xingze struggling slightly in his arms, but soon calmed down and responded obediently with an "Oh".

When Lu Xingze's breathing gradually became steady and even, Xie Qi finally breathed a sigh of relief.

However, deep down in his heart, Xie Qi gave a bitter smile. After all, his wife was too young, and even if he had the desire, he couldn't do something worse than an animal.
