Chapter 168
The warm morning light shone on her beautiful little face, covering it with a faint halo, and the quiet picture was as beautiful as a painting.
After the water in the basin was poured out, Qiao Xin took the empty basin and walked to the rusty faucet. As soon as the faucet was turned on, the water flow suddenly gushed out...
"Ah--" Qiao Xin instinctively retreated, and a tall figure quickly flashed in front of her, protecting her in her arms.
"Oh, I forgot to tell you that the faucet is broken and cannot be turned off." The old lady walked out of the house with a teacup and saw this picture.
The man put his arms around her waist, and the cold water sprinkled on him, and his back was soaked.
"Uncle Lu, are you okay?" Qiao Xin's hair was also wet, her soft hair was tightly pressed against her fair little face, and there were a few drops of water on her face, which looked so beautiful that she couldn't tell.
"It's soaked, hurry up... go into the house to change clothes, don't catch a cold." The old lady quickly found something to block the faucet, turned around and said to her husband, "Old man, you can find a dry clothes to change it first."
Qiao Xin was very worried when he thought that he had any injuries on his body, so he quickly followed him into the house.
Lu Bingchen raised his hand and unbuttoned the buttons of his shirt, one, two, three... revealing his strong chest. When he looked back, the girl was still standing there stupidly watching him.
"Um?"
"Then, that..." Qiao Xin came to his senses and his face suddenly became hot. "I'm afraid that your wounds... it's inconvenient to change clothes, let's see if I need help."
"Come here!" The man looked down at her, his neckline slightly open. His beautiful thin lips opened lightly, and his faint tone seemed to have a terrible magic, which led her to walk over step by step.
"Help me get rid of it."
His eyes were uncontrollably staring at the strong lines on his chest, swallowing, and slowly lifting his little hand to help him take off his wet clothes.
My fingertips touched his skin several times, and the atmosphere was a bit subtle.
"There is gauze in the cabinet." The man said lightly.
"Oh~" Qiao Xin quickly took out the gauze from the cabinet. His movement was too big, and his knee accidentally touched the corner of the table, causing a piercing pain. "Hiss..."
"Idiot!" Lu Bingchen frowned and went to check her knees first. Fortunately, it was just a little bruised, not very serious.
"Will it be possible to change the gauze?"
"Yes." Qiao Xin nodded and carefully removed the gauze from his body. Seeing the wound hidden under the gauze, Qiao Xin paused and her nose was so sore that she wanted to cry.
Seeing this girl's remorse and sad look, Lu Bingchen suddenly felt ache. If it weren't for the inconvenience of changing gauze on his back, he wouldn't have let the girl see the wound on his body.
After changing the gauze, the old man brought a set of dry clothes over. "This is my clothes when I was young. I have been left with a smell of mold for several years. Just put it first."
"Thanks."
"Girl, come here." The old lady didn't know what good thing she brought over, so she stood at the door and waved at her. "This is the rice wine made by grandma herself. How about trying it?"
"Thank you grandma." Qiao Xin took the rice wine and took a sip, and liked it very much. "It smells so fragrant, a bit sweet."
"It's good to like drinking. Grandma really likes you, and she often comes to accompany me, the old lady when she has time..." The old lady is very enthusiastic. She likes this polite and smart girl from the bottom of her heart.
"You drink it first, there is not enough on the table. I'll go make some breakfast."
