Pei Jiao clutched her chest. âNo, I was careless.â
âFei Yi.â He whispered her name,
Pei Jiao looked up at him.
Wei Yu said, âIâm a normal man. Donât always flirt with me, or youâll regret it.â
Pei Jiao felt very aggrieved. âYouâre the one who canât stand being teased. How can you blame me? Besides, I was really careless. It wasnât on purpose. Also, how could I have thought that you would come back just in time for me to take a shower? I think you deliberately came back at this time to watch a beauty leave the shower.â
She only looked aggrieved. When she said this, she did not feel aggrieved at all.
Wei Yu couldnât help but laugh. âAre you making false counter charges?â
âNot at all. Iâm being honest,â she said stubbornly.
Wei Yu did not argue with her. He gathered her bathrobe around her and urged, âGo in and change first.â
âOh.â Obediently, she went back to the bedroom and spent two or three minutes changing before coming out.
Wei Yu had already taken the hairdryer out of the drawer and plugged it in.
Seeing her come out, he reached out to her. âCome and sit here.â
Pei Jiao walked over and sat down at the seat Wei Yu pointed at. Wei Yu picked up the hairdryer with one hand and lifted her wet hair behind her with the other, preparing to blow on it. At this moment, Pei Jiao suddenly shouted, âWait.â
Wei Yu looked down at her. Pei Jiao turned around and showed Wei Yu the dark brown bottle in her hand. âYou have to apply this before drying your hair.â
Wei Yu couldnât tell what it was at a glance. He took it from Pei Jiao and looked at it. Then, he read the words from the bottle. âImmaculate hair care oil?â
Pei Jiao nodded. âYes, I said I needed it last time. Wen Qiong brought it for me.
I think itâs very useful. I always apply it on my hair after washing it.â
When she finished, she reached over, ready to take the conditioner oil back. Wei Yu said, âThereâs no instructions on the bottle. It must be on the packaging. Just tell me how to use it. Iâll help you apply it.â
Pei Jiao was stunned. âYouâre going to⦠help me apply hair care essential oil?â
âl can try,â Wei Yu said. âIf I learn it this time, I can help you in the future.â Pei Jiao chuckled. âItâs not easy to learn. Alright, Iâll teach you.â
Wei Yu asked for guidance in a serious manner. He would drip as many drops as Pei Jiao said. Then, he applied the haircare essential oil to her hair according to every step she had mentioned.
When it was evenly applied, he picked up the hairdryer and dried her hair. This was the first time Wei Yu had done these things. He did it very seriously, not perfunctory at all. When he dried her hair, he was too careful, afraid that the hot wind would burn her, so it took him a long time to blow it dry.
The buzzing was too noisy. Pei Jiao couldnât talk to him and almost fell asleep. When the wind finally stopped, Pei Jiao opened her eyes and asked, âAre you done?â
Wei Yu put down the hairdryer and said, âDone.â
Pei Jiao moved her head. After her hair was dry, her entire head felt much lighter. Behind her, Wei Yu touched her hair lovingly and said, âThis hair care essential oil smells very good.â
âDo you like it?â Pei Jiao stood up and turned around.
Wei Yu nodded.
Pei Jiao said, âThen Iâll get another bottle from Wen Qiong?â
âNo need.â Wei Yu shook his head. He pulled her to the sofa and sat down. He took out the cake and strawberries. Pei Jiaoâs eyes lit up when she saw the cake. Wei Yu handed her a spoon. âTry it. Donât finish it. Leave some room for dinner.â
âl think after eating this cake, we wonât have to eat dinner anymore.â Pei Jiao took the spoon. She did not eat the first spoonful of cake herself. She fed it to Wei Yu first.
Wei Yu was about to say that he still had to eat dinner when she fed him the mousse cake and waited expectantly for him to open his mouth. He didnât like cakes and desserts. But sheâd fed him personally. He wouldnât refuse, so he opened his mouth and ate. It was very sweet, so sweet that one would feel sick if they took another bite, but this was only for people like him who didnât like cake,
Pei Jiao immediately asked him, âHow is it?â
Wei Yuâs lips curved. âItâs delicious.â
âItâs definitely delicious, but from your expression, I donât think you like sweet food that much. You actually pretended to be calm and answered that itâs delicious.â Pei Jiao put down the spoon and handed the cup of plain water beside her to Wei Yu. âDrink some water to wash away the sweetness.â
Wei Yu looked at her quietly. Seeing that he did not react, Pei Jiao asked, âIs it not sweet anymore?â
Wei Yu said softly, âSweet, very sweet. Sweet to the core.â
These words of love were quite good. Pei Jiao put the cup of warm water back and picked up the spoon. âl want to try how sweet it is. Itâs so sweet that it hurts.â When the cake entered her mouth, it was smooth and delicate. The sweetness overflowed on her tongue. It was really delicious.
Wei Yu actually didnât like sweet things. He was really unlucky. She thought so. She heard Wei Yu say, âHow can you tell at a glance that I donât like sweet things?â
Pei Jiao said, âEmotions donât lie.â
It was really obvious at a glance that he was resistant to sweets.
Pei Jiao really liked sweet food. The sweeter she ate, the better her mood would be. As she ate, she asked him, âl heard you call me in the bathroom just now. You sounded quite anxious. Did you think I ran away?â
Wei Yu said, âNo.â
Pei Jiao pursed her lips. âThen why are you shouting so loudly? Youâre quite nervous.â
Wei Yu took a tissue and reached over to wipe a little cream from the corner of her mouth. His actions were so natural that Pei Jiao was stunned. He seemed to be doing something ordinary. When he was done, he gripped the tissue in his palm. âl didnât tind you the last time in the private lounge. I really thought youâd run away, but today Iâm sure you didnât leave.â
âJust because I didnât leave last time doesnât mean I wonât leave this time. Youâre so sureâ¦â Pei Jiao said to him,â You trust your judgment too much. â
With that, Pei Jiao took another big bite of cake. Wei Yu looked at Pei Jiao intently and asked, âThen will you leave me?â
Pei Jiaoâs puffed-up cheeks suddenly stopped. She made a strange expression. âIt wasnât easy for me to woo you. How could I bear to abandon you? Iâm the one who should be worried, okay? One day, when you fall in love with someone else, you might ruthlessly kick me away.â
âNo.â Wei Yu shook his head. âUnless you donât want me..â
