Chapter 513 — No Peeping
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2
Wei Zhao sighed. He did not understand what Tang Zhi was angry about — he had only broken a promise once. But today had been genuinely hectic. Xiaofen had gotten into trouble first thing in the morning, and then he had boarded a plane straight to Yanjing. Not a single moment to catch his breath. Even seeing Tang Zhi for a moment had been out of the question.
Listening to the steady swish of water coming from the bathroom, Wei Zhao felt an unfamiliar itch stir within him for the very first time. He had to laugh at himself — was he actually interested in Feng Xiaoxiao taking a shower?
Still, he had to admit, Feng Xiaoxiao was genuinely beautiful. Had it not been for this outrageous personality of hers, she would likely have had no shortage of suitors. And Wei Zhao told himself that this reaction of his was nothing more than a perfectly normal physiological response.
He shook his head and banished such unrealistic thoughts to one side.
In the washroom, Feng Xiaoxiao was a little nervous too. She had been filthy and uncomfortable, so wanting a shower was only natural — but once inside the washroom, things felt a bit awkward.
Thinking that Wei Zhao was still outside made her even more nervous. Wei Zhao wouldn't barge in, would he?
Considering Wei Zhao's skill, that washroom lock really would be no match for him.
And Feng Xiaoxiao's feelings were conflicted as well: on one hand she was afraid Wei Zhao might come in, on the other her competitive streak was roused — she was a grown beauty now, after all, so why was Wei Zhao so indifferent to her?
If he had not the slightest interest in her, how was she supposed to pursue him? And how was she supposed to get her revenge on him?
At that thought, Feng Xiaoxiao gritted her teeth. You can't catch a wolf without risking the child, and you can't catch a lecher without risking the body! So she merely closed the washroom door without locking it.
If Wei Zhao did barge in, she would throw him a little something, let his eyes get a bargain, let him see the parts that could be seen — so long as he did not really take advantage of her, that would be fine!
Yes, yes — the books said that this sort of veiled suggestion stirred a man's heart all the more.
With her worries set aside, Feng Xiaoxiao took her shower in peace. And it had to be said — with a full belly and a hot shower, this was pure enjoyment!
As she smoothed body wash over her skin, Feng Xiaoxiao began humming a little tune: "La-la-la, la-la-la, I love my bath, the turtle took a tumble..."
Feng Xiaoxiao was enjoying herself when suddenly a chill spread through her body. At first she paid it no mind, assuming it was because the weather was cold and she was bathing without clothes — but then she realized that was not it at all...
So unbearable! Feng Xiaoxiao felt light-headed, nearly losing her footing. She quickly shut off the hot shower and let the steam disperse so she could catch her breath, yet that feeling of cold and suffocation only grew stronger!
"Hah... so unbearable..." Feng Xiaoxiao moaned, then abruptly remembered the taboo of her own body! She must not eat too much seafood! Too much seafood could trigger the symptoms inside her, and in a serious case, it could very well cost her her life!
Only now did Feng Xiaoxiao feel regret — at the time she had been carried away by her craving and excitement, never thinking of her body's fatal flaw! She had never eaten so much seafood before; even when she did, it was only a little. Never like today, eating a whole table's worth.
