CH 61.3

Xu He had no choice but to close his mouth, and bring the clothes of two people in. The man seemed to know that he wanted to help him with the clothes, and he had already taken his clothes off in a short while.

Xu He blushed, put his clothes aside, took off his soaked and heavy clothes with his back faced the man, and poured a ladle of hot water from his head like a person who fell into a deep river, and he suddenly became a little angry again. Although it was summer, it was still strangely cold to be drenched in such heavy rain.

"Can you wash your back, would you like me to help you?"

"I can!"

Xu He replied immediately.

"That's just right. I can't wash my back. Come and help me."

"..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Fangyuan approached Xu He with a bucket, and poured water on his back.

Xu He glared at him, and it was so strange that he could wash it himself when they didn’t take a bath together, but now he couldn't wash it when they take a bath together.

Zhang Fangyuan was afraid that Xu He wouldn’t be able to wipe his back, so he sat down on the stool and turned his back to let Xu He wipe his back.

He waited patiently, and after a while, someone touched his back with one hand. There was no flesh in that hand, and the shape of the slender and beautiful joints could be seen directly. There were calluses on the palm, and it was a little itchy when rubbed against his back. Feeling the touches on his back he felt itch in his heart, he couldn't help but think of something.

He closed his eyes slightly, and was about to sigh when suddenly his back felt hot, and the rubbing movement was too intense.

"You use a dry loofah net!"

Xu He smiled innocently: "I  scrub the table at the tea shed with a dry loofah net dipped in saponins."

Zhang Fangyuan's shoulders were very broad, and his waist was narrowed inward. Xu He supported his back with one hand, and the other hand scrubbed it with a loofah net. He felt that Zhang Fangyuan's back was broad, and when he scrub it by himself, it was no different from washing a table.

"You treat me like a table?"

Zhang Fangyuan turned around and grabbed Xu He's wrist, trying to give him a lesson, but looking at the wet man, he just poured some water on his face.

While the two of them took a bath for a stick of incense, the rain outside didn’t stop, the doors and windows were closed tightly, inside the house the candles were also swayed left and right by the wind that came in through the gap.

Zhang Fangyuan held Xu He in his arms, and brushed his hair carefully. Washing hair in the rainy night wouldn’t dry in a while, so Zhang Fangyuan used some charcoal and raised the brazier to dry Xu He’s hair.

Xu He was sitting on Zhang Fangyuan's lap. He could feel that the people behind him was a little excited, but Xu He was a little groggy from being roasted by the fire, and he didn't want to pay attention to it. After all, he often like this.

Leaning against Zhang Fangyuan with half-closed eyes, he yawned.

Zhang Fangyuan was still thinking about drying his hair and doing something else. He bent down his head and glanced at the person in his arms, it didn't look like he was pretending. He touched Xu He's face, which was warmed by the fire: "Are you sleepy?"

"Yes." Xu He tilted his head and rubbed his face on Zhang Fangyuan's neck: "Ayuan, I want to sleep."

Zhang Fangyuan couldn't bear Xu He's acting like a baby, even though he handed in a large sum of money today and wanted to get some benefits, but after seeing the situation, he still said: "Go to sleep, I'll take you to bed after drying your hair."

"Hmm..."

Xu He responded with a bit of drowsiness, and his breathing became even after a while, and Zhang Fangyuan hugged him even tighter.

But he didn't know that this person would sleep until almost noon the next day, Zhang Fangyuan was spinning around in the room in a hurry, and he didn't even come out of the stall.
