Chapter 338 Do you want to rub your back?
Cui Yun was silent.
Shen Hua: "What do you want to eat for dinner?"
Cui Yun continued to remain silent.
Seeing this, Shen Hua became more diligent in naming several dishes.
"They are all home-cooked dishes. They are not difficult to make and they are ready quickly."
Cui Yun said casually: "You do it?"
Shen Hua raised her delicate hand and said, "Of course the cook made it. Does the Marquis know how much the ointment on my hands cost?"
Without waiting for a response, she gave the answer: "One hundred taels."
"What should I do if oil splashes and bubbles form?"
"The kitchen is full of fumes, so what if it smokes me?"
Shen Hua took out a few melon seeds from her small pocket and slowly peeled them.
If you look carefully, her hands are shaking a little.
But she looks very calm!
She even asked coquettishly, "Would you like to rub your back?"
Shen Hua paused and then raked him down: "Although, you are like this -"
"It's quite immoral."
Cui Yun was able to take a bath quietly, but she scolded him for being offensive. His Adam's apple rolled, and he didn't know whether to be angry or laugh.
Those gloomy emotions even disappeared as the girl entered.
In the dark room, glistening light flows.
Although they were so far apart, the man's low sigh seemed to pass by his ears.
Somewhat itchy.
Shen Hua raised her hand and couldn't help but rub her ears.
Cui Yun's slanted eyes were slightly raised, containing a seductive charm. He vividly demonstrated the word temptation she said not long ago. His lips moved.
"Then I'll thank you, Mrs. Shen."
Shen Hua's breath froze, as if she couldn't believe what she was hearing.
"No, I'll just——"
Cui Yun's eyes flashed: "But I take it seriously."
He showed no embarrassment at all. Once he got serious, Shen Hua would be no match for him.
"Is it possible that Mrs. Shen just said it casually to fool me?"
Shen Hua could barely hold back.
She was really kind.
The girl frowned and bit down on the melon kernels. But her body remained motionless: "I never allow anyone to come close to me when I'm bathing. You should learn from this."
Cui Yun raised his hand, driving the water flow and splashing ripples: "What comes and goes, I will help you next time."
For a moment, Shen Hua felt that what this guy said was quite right. The courage she mustered up was drained bit by bit by the thin air.
She opened her mouth with difficulty.
The words that came to my mouth became a sentence.
"Your hair is nice. It's thick and dark. I had to meet several officials during the rejuvenation hunt, and they all had a lot of bald heads."
Looks very old-fashioned.
"You are busy with official duties all day long, so you have to be careful."
Cui Yun's expression dimmed.
"If you care, you might as well worry about Prince Xie. He will only overthink things more than me."
Shen Hua opened her eyes wide: "Really...really?"
Unavoidable anxiety.
"He has been like this since he was a child. When he should study, he multitasks. He keeps me in check, and he also has to deal with scientific examinations, and he doesn't forget to please other girls."
Shen Hua narrowed her eyes and remembered Xie Xun's current status. She was afraid that she would be really busy, even more so than Cui Yun. At least Cui Yun had established a foothold in the officialdom. Xie Xun had to climb the ladder step by step.
But she has double standards: "My brother is handsome even if he has a bald head."
After saying this, Shen Hua noticed that Cui Yun looked pretty good with his bald head.
Cui Yun chuckled.
Shen Hua had nothing to say.
"How many luminous pearls are there in this darkroom?"
Cui Yun lowered his eyes and twitched his lips: "Twenty-seven."
Shen Hua:??
She stopped knocking melon seeds and turned around without hesitation to pick out the nearest luminous pearl.
She worked very hard, but she just didn't dare to use force. After all, the girl's nails were beautifully manicured, and they were painted with begonia-colored khaodan.
She muttered, but she also told Cui Yun.
"Then I have to take one with me."
The girl even took the hairpin from her hair to pry it off. She looked serious as if she was doing something that could save the whole world.
Cui Yun's eyes softened inexplicably.
"Shen Hua."
His smile was forced, and his words became difficult to speak: "If I were not the second son of the Yangling Marquis Mansion——"
Shen Hua immediately turned her head, her steps on her hair swayed, and the bell made a crisp sound. She quickly became nervous: "But something happened in the court?"
She witnessed the decline of Cui Mansion with her own eyes six years ago.
So many were caught off guard, so tragic.
Once the emperor has his ministers, the whole world is his pawn.
Cui Yun looked at her, and then said calmly: "It was just a casual comment."
Shen Hua then thought about it seriously: "If you were not Cui Hou, I would also be willing to let you become my wife if I start an embroidery workshop in the future.
After saying that, she turned back and continued to pick at the night pearl.
"..."
So, does it completely meet your criteria for choosing a son-in-law?
Soon, I heard a "crash" behind me.
Shenhua was startled, she slowly put the hairpin out of her hair, covered her face with her hands, and moved towards the mechanism in small steps with difficulty.
It was as if the feeling of shame emerged belatedly.
She was so sure that Cui Yun would be fine in the bathtub! But she didn't expect that Cui Yun could stand up so shamelessly!
Isn't he afraid of her seeing it?
Although he has it, Shen Hua also has it, but after all, it is not his own body.
There was rustling movement behind him.
Cui Yun slowly wiped away the water stains.
His eyes fell momentarily on the girl whose back was curved.
He put on a loose robe, his shoulders were broad and strong, but his waist was thin. Any more would be too fat, and any less would be too thin. He didn't wear shoes, and the ground was wet with every step he stepped on.
As soon as Shen Hua touched the button, she fell into Cui Yun's arms.
He hugged the girl's waist tightly from behind and buried his head in her neck.
The hands clasping her waist had sharp joints and even veins. But he did not forget to control his strength for fear of hurting her.
Over the years, Cui Yun has overcome all difficulties. He is unfazed by favors and humiliations and rarely loses his temper. How can he still be so depressed?
The girl asked very quietly: "Did something bad happen to you?"
Cui Yun's eyes trembled.
"Never."
He... will always handle it properly.
Shen Hua said slowly "Oh".
"Then can you let go of me first?"
Shen Hua reminded him: "Just put on a robe."
She took a look and said, "It's not tied tightly yet! What if it slips down?"
Her reaction was completely different from the one who sat down and chatted in front of her.
"Now you know you're afraid? Wasn't it quite proud just now?"
"You only know that men and women are different, but why don't you know that their structures are very different?"
His hand moved upward slightly, and finally stopped at a ridge, separated by a fist's distance without touching it.
"Like here."
His voice was low and soft, and his fingertips touched him as he spoke.
Shen Hua was sluggish, half of her body was numb.
But it fell away as soon as it was touched. It ran along the lower abdomen and had an obvious tendency to slide down.
"besides……"
Shen Hua could not help but tremble, but was she someone who could beg for mercy?
no!
Besides, she really doesn’t know!
"Where else?"
The girl looked at him eagerly, her eyes as clear as crystal, like crystal clear glass: "Tell me about it quickly."
Cui Yun's fingertips felt hot and she suddenly retracted them.
