Kiana, do you understand what filial piety is?

"I, I was..." Chen Tianwu stammered, unable to utter a complete sentence. He felt his cheeks burning and even breathing became difficult. "Why now?"

"Why?" Yu Zhe deliberately moved closer, his warm breath spraying on her face. Seeing her panic, the smile in his eyes deepened. "I just followed my heart and did what I wanted to do. And I think you need me now."

Chen Tianwu bit her lower lip, her eyes wandering, she didn't dare to look directly into Yu Zhe's burning gaze, "Who, who needs you..." Her voice became smaller and smaller, and finally became almost a whisper.

Yu Zhe couldn't help but chuckle at her appearance, and reached out to gently pinch her burning earlobe, "Why, are you shy?"

Chen Tianwu raised his head suddenly, but when he met Yu Zhe's focused gaze, he quickly lowered his head and said in a muffled voice, "I..."

"I'm serious." Yu Zhe suppressed his smile and said seriously, "Let's not talk about the Cangxuan sisters and Ji Lin for now. Siegfried and Raven are both seasoned warriors. Although this mission is dangerous, they can handle it. Kiana is currently asleep, as is Yang, so now it's just you..."

Chen Tianwu said, "I'm not a child anymore!"

"This has nothing to do with whether you're a child or not." Yu Zhe sighed, "I'm not feeling sorry for you. I'm concerned about you. I don't want to see you get hurt."

Chen Tianwu was stunned. She hadn't expected to hear such words. Yu Zhe's gaze was so gentle that she forgot to refute him for a moment.

The atmosphere between them suddenly became somewhat tense. Chen Tianwu felt something burning in her chest. She opened her mouth, but didn't know what to say.

In the end, he just muttered softly: "You, why are you suddenly saying this..."

Yu Zhe reached out and ruffled her hair, his movements as gentle as if he were treating some treasure, "Because it's the truth."

"Chen Tianwu, you are mine, so I have to protect you well."

194 is about to be eaten~

"I...I don't need it..." Chen Tianwu's voice became smaller and smaller, and then she turned her head away awkwardly, but she couldn't hide the slightly upturned corners of her mouth.

Those azure eyes sparkled with a complex light, showing both stubbornness and a hint of imperceptible joy.

Yu Zhe raised his eyebrows and deliberately moved closer to look at the girl who was half a head shorter than him.

"What? Are you shy?" There was obvious teasing in Yu Zhe's low voice.

"Who, who's shy!" Chen Tianwu turned around abruptly, "I just... I just think you're meddling too much!"

Yu Zhe chuckled and reached out to ruffle her soft hair, which felt surprisingly soft.

"I don't care what you think, I care what I think." Yu Zhe deliberately put on a stern face, imitating the tone of a domineering CEO, but the smile in his eyes betrayed him.

"You, how could you be like this!" Chen Tianwu angrily slapped his hand away, but the force was as light as a feather. She bit her lower lip, her eyes wandering. "How long have we known each other? And it's just like this... just like this..."

"What's that?" Yu Zhe deliberately asked, finding her embarrassed look particularly amusing.

"Nothing!" Chen Tianwu shook his head violently, took a deep breath, and tried to make his voice sound calmer: "I was a man before..."

Yu Zhe suddenly stopped smiling and his eyes became serious. “I don’t care about this kind of thing.”

"I..." She opened her mouth, but didn't know what to say. Yu Zhe's hand was still in her hair, his slender fingers gently combing her hair, and the warm touch made her whole body numb.

"Why aren't you talking?" Yu Zhe leaned forward slightly, his voice low and gentle, with a hint of teasing.

Chen Tianwu's face turned even redder. She turned her face away, not daring to look directly into Yu Zhe's eyes. "You, don't get so close..."

Yu Zhe chuckled, and instead of moving away, he moved closer.

In the end, Chen Tianwu just muttered softly: "Pervert..." But her tone had softened, with an intimacy that she herself did not even notice.

"Hmm?" Yu Zhe raised an eyebrow. "What did I do to become a pervert?"

"You, you..." Chen Tianwu hesitated for a long time, and finally glared at him angrily, "Anyway, you're a pervert!"

Yu Zhe looked at her angry expression and reached out to gently pinch her red cheek: "Okay, I'm a pervert. So do you want to be with a pervert?"

"It's up to you." Chen Tianwu lowered his head, his voice so soft that it was almost inaudible, "Anyway, you won't leave even if I chase you away..."

Yu Zhe gave a wicked smile and deliberately leaned close to her ear: "Huh? What did you say? I didn't hear clearly." The warm breath brushed across her earlobe, causing Chen Tianwu to tremble all over.

"You, you clearly heard it..." Chen Tianwu muttered, "Why are you pretending..."

"Oh~" Yu Zhe drew out the tone, reached out and gently lifted her chin, forcing her to look at him, "So, you agree to be with me?" His thumb gently stroked her soft lips, his eyes so gentle that tears could drip from them.

"Who, who agreed!" She turned around and was about to run away, but Yu Zhe pulled her into his arms.

"Why are you running?" Yu Zhe tightened his arms, holding her firmly against his chest. He lowered his head and whispered in her ear, "Didn't you just say that I wouldn't leave even if you chased me away?"

There was a clear smile in his voice. "It seems you know me very well."

Chen Tianwu struggled a few times but to no avail, so he gave up and buried his face in his chest, muttering, "Why are you so annoying..."

"You hate me but still let me hug you?" Yu Zhe chuckled and felt the person in his arms stiffen noticeably.

"I can't break free!" Chen Tianwu raised his head and glared at him, but when he met Yu Zhe's gaze, his momentum was gone and his voice became smaller and smaller. "And..."

"And what?" Yu Zhe asked, with anticipation glittering in his eyes.

Chen Tianwu bit his lower lip, and finally said with a desperate look: "And I didn't say I didn't want to..." As soon as he finished speaking, he wished he could find a hole in the ground to crawl into.

Yu Zhe's eyes lit up instantly, as if filled with starlight: "Then I won't be polite~"

He lowered his head and kissed her forehead gently, "Just stay with me today~"

"You, don't go too far!" Chen Tianwu pushed him with a red face, but he took the opportunity to hold her hand.

"How have I been too demanding?" Yu Zhe blinked in a wronged manner, "It was you who said you were willing." As he spoke, he moved closer, with the tip of his nose almost touching hers.

"I was..." Chen Tianwu stamped her feet anxiously, but he suddenly grabbed her by the waist and hugged her neck with a startled cry, "Yu Zhe! Put me down!"

"No." Yu Zhe tightened his arms and deliberately shook the girl in his arms. He watched her panic and hug his neck tightly. "You've been holding me for so long that you're sweating. Let me help you take a shower~"

Chen Tianwu buried her face in his shoulder in shame, her voice muffled: "Who needs your help... I can wash it myself..."

Yu Zhe looked down at her, his eyes filled with mischievous smiles: "Really? I'm really good at rubbing people's backs."

"You, stop it! And I'm not sweating at all..." Chen Tianwu's voice became smaller and smaller.

She was sweating, wasn't she? But she was drooling.

Yu Zhe continued to hold her and strode towards the bathroom: "That's perfect, we can take a bath together."

"Yu Zhe!" Chen Tianwu was embarrassed and anxious, twisting and turning in his arms, "If you keep doing this, I'll really be angry!"

"Okay, okay, I won't tease you anymore." Seeing that she was really getting angry, Yu Zhe quickly withdrew while he was ahead, but still refused to let her go. "But you just promised to accompany me today, don't go back on your word." He looked down at her, his eyes suddenly serious, with a bit of anticipation and uneasiness.

Chen Tianwu's heart softened when he looked at her. She bit her lip and muttered softly, "I didn't say I'd regret it..." Only then did she realize what she had said and immediately turned her face away in embarrassment, "But, but this is not the way to accompany me!"

Yu Zhe chuckled softly, the vibration of his chest being heard through their bodies pressed together. "So, how do you want to accompany me?"

He deliberately leaned close to her ear and lowered his voice, "I'll listen to you."

"You, you put me down first!" Chen Tianwu's heart beat faster because of his teasing, and her fingers unconsciously twisted his collar.

"No." Yu Zhe hugged her tighter, lowered his head and kissed the top of her head, "Unless you kiss me."

"You!" Chen Tianwu's eyes widened as she met his smiling gaze. "You scoundrel!"

"I'm only being mean to you." Yu Zhe smiled like a cat stealing fish, and pecked her cheek quickly when she wasn't paying attention. "Let's go, take a shower first. I won't let you rest well afterwards~"

Chen Tianwu covered his face with his hands, his heart beating so fast that it seemed like it was about to jump out of his chest.

He was about to be eaten, but she had no way to deal with him.

195 Cleaning inside

Steam gradually filled the bathroom.

"Come here." Yu Zhe stretched out his hand towards her, and water droplets slid down his strong arms.

Chen Tianwu reluctantly moved over, and just as she reached the shower head, he pulled her into his arms. The warm water instantly soaked their clothes, and the thin fabric clung to their bodies.

"Your clothes are all wet..." Chen Tianwu protested in a low voice.

"It's just right to take them off together." Yu Zhe said as he started to unbutton her clothes.

Chen Tianwu bit her lower lip, tiny drops of water hanging on her thick eyelashes.

She was wearing a light-colored shirt today, now soaked through with water, almost transparent, the outline of her underwear faintly visible. Her fair skin shone like pearls in the mist, and her slender waist was so thin that it could be held in one hand.

"I'll do it myself..." she muttered softly, and as soon as her fingers touched the second button, Yu Zhe held them.

"Let me do it." Yu Zhe's voice was a little hoarse, and his fingertips brushed across the skin on her chest lightly.

One, two...

The buttons were unbuttoned one by one, and the wet shirt slipped off her round shoulders, revealing her delicate collarbone and faintly visible cleavage.

When the last piece of clothing fell to the ground, Chen Tianwu subconsciously hugged herself. Water droplets rolled down her fair skin. Her slender arms couldn't hide her full breasts, and the curve of her waist was faintly visible in the mist.

Her legs were long and straight, and her knees were slightly red from nervousness.

"Don't hide, let me take a good look at you." Zhe pulled her hands apart without giving her permission, his burning eyes sweeping over every inch of her skin.

In the mist, Yu Zhe's gaze was so hot that it almost melted her. Chen Tianwu felt her body burning, but she still mustered the courage to look up and meet his gaze.

The pink palace on the snow-capped roof also stands tall in the water vapor.

"Very beautiful..." Yu Zhe praised softly, his fingers caressing her cheek, slowly sliding down to her collarbone, and then to... his fingertips gently rubbing, causing Chen Tianwu to tremble slightly.

"Stop, don't look..." Chen Tianwu couldn't stand Yu Zhe's fiery gaze or his touch.

Yu Zhe laughed and said, "Why are you shy? It's not the first time."

He placed his palm on her smooth back and felt the skin beneath his palm was surprisingly hot.

"That, that's different..." Her voice came muffled from his chest, and her wet hair stuck to their skin.

That time was an inspection, and this time is...

"Okay, okay, I won't tease you anymore~" Yu Zhe finally let her go out of mercy and turned around to pick up the shower gel.

He squeezed out the milky white shower gel with his slender fingers and gently rubbed it in circles on her bare back.

Yu Zhe's movements were very gentle, as if he was treating some precious treasure.

"Relax, I'll be gentle~"

"I, I know..." Chen Tianwu muttered softly, her cheeks redder. She tried to relax, but her body trembled slightly at his touch.

The water droplets slid down the graceful lines of her back, lingered briefly at the waist, and finally sank into the valley between the two peaks.

Yu Zhe chuckled and slowly slid his fingers down her spine.

"Turn around." Yu Zhe patted the backyard. Chen Tianwu bit his lower lip and turned around slowly.

Yu Zhe began to wash her hair. His slender fingers shuttled through her hair, and the perfect pressure made her squint her eyes in comfort.

"Harder..." she murmured unconsciously, like a cat being stroked.

"Here?" Yu Zhe deliberately increased the pressure of his fingertips, watching her neck slightly raised in comfort. Drops of water dripped down her delicate chin and landed on her beautifully shaped collarbone.

"Hmm..." Chen Tianwu responded unconsciously, her eyelashes fluttering. Her skin was a faint pink from the hot water, and her lips were particularly rosy from the steam. Yu Zhe's Adam's apple rolled, and his eyes lingered on her.

Chen Tianwu nodded dazedly, with drops of water sliding down the tip of her upturned nose.

"A little more to the left..." she said vaguely, rubbing Yu Zhe's palm like a satisfied cat.

"Here?" Yu Zhe deliberately scratched it lightly with his fingernails.

"Woo~ Stop it~" Chen Tianwu glared at him in an annoyed manner, but the look was not intimidating at all because of the mist, but rather had a bit of coquettishness.

Yu Zhe smiled and didn't answer. He continued to wash Chen Tianwu's body. Soon...

"We've finished washing the outside, it's time to clean the inside~ Chen Tianwu, get down quickly."

"Hmm?" Chen Tianwu showed a puzzled expression, but still listened to Yu Zhe's words and crawled on all fours on the bathroom floor.

Does that mean it should be in the bathroom instead of the bed?

Thinking of this, Chen Tianwu's body, which had originally relaxed, became tense again.

But when Chen Tianwu saw Yu Zhe pick up the hose prepared on the side, she seemed to understand what Yu Zhe meant by "cleaning the inside".

"Yu Zhe, I..." Chen Tianwu's voice sounded a little scared.

"It's okay, relax. It's always a little awkward the first time." Yu Zhe whispered, "I'll be gentle."

"But..." Chen Tianwu's face turned red instantly. She thought that Yu Zhe might play a little too much, but she really couldn't accept it being like this for the first time.

But Yu Zhe didn't give her a chance to refuse. When the cold tube mouth touched her skin, she shivered violently.

"It's cold..." she protested softly, with a hint of grievance in her voice.

"It will be done soon." Yu Zhe rubbed her waist soothingly, but without pausing, he turned on the faucet and warm water flowed slowly.
