CHAPTER 151: CHAPTER 151: SCARED LIKE THIS?

Yan Xinxin was instantly bewildered.

Her fair cheeks almost immediately turned crimson, and just as she regained her senses, Mo Chuxi grabbed her wrist and carefully opened her right palm.

"Can you still wring a towel like this?"

He parted his lips, his deep, husky voice making Yan Xinxin’s cheeks burn even hotter.

Yet his words left her stunned once again.

What does he mean?

Did he come in here just to help her wring a towel?

"Mo Chuxi, let go of me! I can wring a towel myself, even if I can’t, I wouldn’t ask you to do it! Just leave!"

Yan Xinxin struggled hard to free her wrist.

He was so close, his presence surrounding her, making her heartbeat irregular and chaotic.

"You can’t touch water—it’ll get infected."

"..."

It was as if he wasn’t listening to her at all. Instead, he leaned in even closer...

"Knock, knock, knock."

A sudden knocking sound came from outside the bathroom door.

"Xinxin, is Chuxi Daddy inside? I can’t find him anywhere."

"Xi..."

Yan Xinxin snapped out of her daze and quickly replied.

"Mo Chuxi, Xi is looking for you, hurry up and leave!"

She spoke while struggling harder to break free from him. But then she thought of something, changed her mind, and hastily grabbed Mo Chuxi’s hand again.

"No! Mo Chuxi, you absolutely can’t go out now. Xi can’t see you here!"

"Xinxin?"

"Uh... Xi, your Chuxi Daddy might have gone up to the rooftop. Xinxin will finish her bath soon. Be a good boy and go back to the living room to watch cartoons, okay?"

Yan Xinxin answered toward the bathroom door.

"Oh..."

Hearing her son’s obedient response and the fading sound of footsteps, Yan Xinxin finally let out a sigh of relief.

But when she raised her eyes, she saw her hand gripping Mo Chuxi’s arm tightly and was so shocked that she quickly let go and retreated backward.

Mo Chuxi’s eyes narrowed slightly, seemingly displeased.

"What, do you think I’d eat you? Hmm? Is that why you’re so scared?"

"..."

Yan Xinxin was speechless. Seeing Mo Chuxi suddenly rise to his feet, she reflexively tightened her grip on her towel.

"87, 60, 89." He once again reported her measurements.

"..."

"I’ve already seen through every inch of your figure. What’s the point of covering up now?"

Mo Chuxi remarked indifferently and turned to take two dry towels from the cabinet.

Yan Xinxin’s cheeks were burning red, but she refused to give in.

"Mo Chuxi! I’m not an exhibitionist. A grown man barging into the bathroom suddenly—does it seem odd for me to cover myself up? You’re the one who’s the real pervert!"

"Oh? Me? A pervert?"

Mo Chuxi asked lazily, tossing the towels onto Yan Xinxin’s head as he did so.

The two towels fell over her head like a bride’s red veil.

"Be careful tonight."

"..."

"Get ready. Tonight, we’ll start repaying the first installment of your debt."

Mo Chuxi’s deep voice accompanied his turning away, fading in Yan Xinxin’s ears.

Yan Xinxin no longer had the heart to continue her bath.

The thought of Mo Chuxi possibly planning to sleep with her tonight left her panicked, her heartbeat intensified to a frenzy.

What should she do?

Should she drug his dinner later, knock him out?

If he’s unconscious, wouldn’t he have no thoughts of sleeping with me?

Great idea!

Yan Xinxin really thought this was a brilliant plan. Yet, as she reveled in her smug delight, reality quickly slapped her awake.

How could she possibly have the ability to drug Mo Chuxi? If anything, Mo Chuxi drugging her seemed far more likely!

Yes, she truly felt like she was about to be mesmerized out of her senses by him...

The night deepened, and Yan Xinxin held her phone, looking at the group photo. Her lips couldn’t help but curve upward.

Lowering her gaze to the scarf tied around her right hand, she felt a sweet twinge in her heart...

"Yan Xinxin."

What?!

Mo Chuxi’s voice sounded like the devil in the dead of night, pounding against her heart.

She hurriedly put away her phone and turned to see the man approaching her.

He remained elegant and refined, yet his gaze was alluringly wicked.

"Yan Xinxin, it’s time to repay your debt."
