This Wife Is So Nice To Her Husband!

"... Huh?"

Long Zhao Feng wrung his hair dry while explaining, "Thanks to your scream, the soldiers must have thought that I asked for a woman from the nearest town to come accompany me for the night. Out of courtesy, they will watch the tent for the whole night just in case someone comes barging in without permission."

"Who would do th..."

Long Zhao Feng squinted his eyes at Xiao Yue, who acknowledge her mistake right away.

"So what should I... I am supposed to sleep with Xiao Yu."

"I will get Chao Guang to tell her what happened. Tonight, you stay here."

It's not like they never slept on the same bed before.

Long Zhao Feng was kind enough to get warm water delivered so that Xiao Yue could have a relaxing bath inside the tent. Although he had his back facing the bathtub, Xiao Yue was still extremely nervous and could barely relax. She stripped out of the armor and clothes and quickly went inside the tub to scrub herself clean.

After she was done, she realized that she did not bring new clothes to change into! Xiao Yue could have slapped herself. Of course. She originally wanted to fetch a towel along with some fresh clothes before going to a hidden spot near the river to clean herself. How could she have forgotten?

Xiao Yue had embarrassed herself so much that night that she did not dare to ask Long Zhao Feng for anything else. She remained inside the bathtub until the water grew cold, until her fingers and toes wrinkled. Even then she said nothing, continuously brainstorming for a way out of the dilemma.

Eventually, Long Zhao Feng turned around in irritation. He knew that women liked taking long baths, but how long was he supposed to wait? Inside the tub, Xiao Yue was trembling slightly in cold water. She rested her head on her knees, which were drawn to her chest.

"..."

Long Zhao Feng rolled his sleeves and hooked an arm at the back of Xiao Yue's knees while the other one wrapped around her shoulders. Xiao Yue fell asleep inside the bathtub while overthinking! Her body was cold and her skin pale. It would not be surprising if anyone thought that she was dying.

Xiao Yue's eyes opened in shock when she was lifted out of the bathtub. The one who took her out was Long Zhao Feng, and he did not have enough courtesy to cover her up! She was literally naked as the gods created her. Long Zhao Feng could see everything!

"You...!!"

"I, what? How long do you plan to soak in there? Until morning?"

"..."

He was right to scold her. Xiao Yue could not say anything in return. Xiao Yue stayed in the water for so long that her limbs went numb. She would not have been able to step out of the bathtub even if she wanted to. Any longer and she might catch pneumonia.

It was good that Long Zhao Feng noticed and took her out. Xiao Yue understood and thanked Long Zhao Feng from the bottom of her heart for his immense kindness, but it did little to reduce the level of shame she was feeling when exposed so indiscriminately to that man.

Xiao Yue put her arms around her body, trying to hide her breasts. When Long Zhao Feng put her down on the bed, she immediately assumed a fetal position to try and hide from his scorching gaze. Long Zhao Feng grabbed his towel and tossed it at Xiao Yue.

"Dry yourself."

While Xiao Yue rubbed at her hair and body, Long Zhao Feng went to rummage inside a chest next to his makeshift table. He pulled out a set of white night robes and wrapped them around Xiao Yue.

"But..."

"They are clean. Don't worry."

That was not what she meant. Borrowing someone's clothing was rather intimate for two people who were not supposed to know each other during this period. His clothes were too big on her, she looked almost adorable in an overlarge clothing, gazing at Long Zhao Feng like a drenched kitten.

"It's late. Let's go to bed."

Long Zhao Feng blew off the lamp on the table and walked toward the bed. Xiao Yue remained in the sitting position. Long Zhao Feng climbed into the bed and pulled the wild kitten into his embrace.

"Sleep," he commanded.

Xiao Yue's head lay against Long Zhao Feng's chest. Recent days were quite adventurous and exhausting.  She did not have much energy left to push Long Zhao Feng away. Her eyelids grew heavier until she could not open her eyes anymore and just like that, she drifted away while inhaling the fresh soap scent from his body.
