After his blunder in the handsome guy's comment section was exposed.

"Let me blow on it for you."

Xi Chenzhou lowered his head and carefully blew a few breaths onto the reddened area on her palm.

The warm breath brushed against her palm, and Lin Xuechun couldn't help but curl her fingers tightly, biting the soft flesh inside her lip.

"Does it still hurt?"

He looked up at her, his voice low and grainy.

Lin Xuechun shook her head, quickly pulled her hand back, and hid it behind her back: "No, it doesn't hurt anymore."

She lowered her eyes, not daring to meet his gaze; his face was simply too beautiful.

And he even blew on her hands.

It's like coaxing a child, so embarrassing.

Xi Chenzhou looked at her shy, downcast eyes and a slight smile appeared on his lips.

They're so bold online.

In real life, he's as timid as a rabbit; he runs away the moment he gets a little close.

"That's how it is when you first start practicing."

"Uh-huh."

Lin Xuechun nodded in agreement; she preferred watching others practice.

She herself is fine with it.

Lin Xuechun had been kneeling on the mat for a while, and her knees were getting tired. She looked around, trying to find something to hold onto so she could get off the mat.

Xi Chenzhou extended his arm directly in front of her, looking at her with a slight raise of his eyebrows. The meaning was clear: he was offering his arm for her to lean on.

Lin Xuechun's face turned red again, much to her chagrin.

Anyway, I already blew on her hands, so it's no big deal to help her up a bit.

She raised her hand, her slender white fingertips resting on his forearm. Their skin touched, and the hard, hot touch of his arm traveled to her fingertips. Her fingers trembled slightly, and she braced herself a little, shifting her knees as she tried to straighten her legs. But as soon as she moved, a strong numbness suddenly shot through her calf.

"Mmm~" she couldn't help but hum.

"What's wrong?" Xi Chenzhou stared at her, his voice a little tense.

Lin Xuechun remained kneeling motionless for a few seconds before saying, "My legs are numb from kneeling."

"Ha." Xi Chenzhou laughed.

"What are you laughing at?" Lin Xuechun was already feeling numb and uncomfortable, and then he laughed at her, making her feel a little embarrassed and annoyed. She glared at him with wide almond eyes.

She thought she was quite fierce, but in Xi Chenzhou's eyes, she had no threat whatsoever.

It's like a kitten showing its claws to a lion.

Is this what she looks like when she's angry?

So well-behaved, so cute.

"Let me carry you down."

Xi Chenzhou raised his hand and wrapped it around her waist, lifting her up with one hand.

"I don't want you to hug me." She was still angry and didn't want him to touch her, so she kicked her legs twice while they were hanging in his arms. The kick made her even more numb, and the soreness made her hiss involuntarily.

"Don't move. The more you move, the more uncomfortable you'll feel."

He carried her all the way to the sofa in the rest area, put her on the sofa, and then let go, half-squatting at her feet.

Lin Xuechun leaned back, wondering what he was going to do. She subconsciously looked up at him, only to find that he was looking right at her, his eyes dark and deep, with a somber light.

Lin Xuechun quickly looked away, not daring to look at him again.

Like a little white rabbit scared away by a big bad wolf.

Very nice.

Xi Chenzhou smiled slightly, placed his hand on her calf, and comforted her, "Don't be afraid."

He spoke casually, his fingers gently kneading her calves.

Lin Xuechun immediately felt a numb and itchy sensation.

A tingling sensation shot up from the soles of my feet, and my lower abdomen also felt sore—a strange, indescribable feeling.

Lin Xuechun clenched her fingers into her palm, her breath hitched slightly, and she resisted the sensation.

After a while, Xi Chenzhou loosened his grip on her calf.

"Try moving it."

Lin Xuechun tried to pull her leg back, and the numbness completely disappeared.

She exhaled almost imperceptibly, her clenched palms relaxed, and she said to him, "Thank you."

"You're welcome." Xi Chenzhou looked at her, his Adam's apple bobbing slightly. "What other equipment would you like to try? I'll teach you."

"No, no need." Thinking of his teaching methods, Lin Xuechun waved her hands repeatedly.

She's fine with joking around online, but when it comes to actual physical contact with guys in real life, she gets a little awkward.

Do you exercise regularly?

Sometimes, but not very frequently.

"What type?"

Yoga.

"Yes, it's very suitable for girls."

Lin Xuechun nodded, unsure of what to say next.

Xi Chenzhou took a bottle of water from the refrigerator next to the sofa, unscrewed it, and handed it to her: "Sit here and rest for a bit, I'm going to take a shower."

"Okay." Lin Xuechun took the water and took a small sip.

Xi Chenzhou glanced at her, turned and walked towards the shower area. After taking two steps, he looked back at her. She sat there obediently, took out her phone, lowered her head, and played with the phone case charm with her pink and white fingertips.

He looked away, a slight smirk playing on his lips, and pushed open the door to the shower area.

……

Lin Xuechun waited outside for a while.

My phone suddenly vibrated.

A WeChat message came in.

She opened it to view the message sent by Xi Chenzhou—

[Could you please help me? I left my gym bag in the equipment area; my clothes are inside.]

There was no one else in the locker room.
