CHAPTER 345: CHAPTER 325: IN YOUR DREAMS

Although the two of them had bathed together many times and soaked in hot springs together countless times.

But just letting him in like this.

Ahem.

Jiang Ruan had thin skin and was still very embarrassed.

She let out a sigh of relief and continued bathing.

Just as she was about to finish, there was the rustling sound of a key unlocking from the door.

Then, the door opened???

The door opened, and Jiang Ruan was caught off guard, standing there dumbfounded, without even grabbing a towel, just standing there screaming, "Ahhh..."

Meeting his eyes, her face blushed crimson, scrambling to cover herself.

"Bao Ye, who allowed you to come in!"

"Get out!"

Jiang Ruan turned to run over, grabbed a towel, and wrapped herself up.

"Where did you get the key?"

Being questioned, Bao Ye didn’t speak.

Watching her movements, he glanced her over from top to bottom, making sure she was really okay, only then did the tension in his eyes fade away.

Leaning against the door, he twirled the key with his fingers, teasing in a drawling tone, "As long as I want something, there’s nothing I can’t get."

"Besides, what’s there to be shy about, when there’s not a part of you I haven’t seen?"

"Shut up!"

"Don’t you have any decency?"

Jiang Ruan’s cheeks were red all the way to her ears.

"Hurry out. I’m done washing."

Bao Ye: "Oh."

His eyes lingered on her.

She was tightly wrapped in the towel, hair messy and dripping with water, falling onto her fair skin, her cheeks flushed after the bath, giving her a kind of fresh-out-of-water beauty.

Watching her, Bao Ye’s throat unexpectedly tightened.

There was something...

But thinking about how things got out of hand last night.

He cleared his throat lightly, ultimately holding back and letting her off the hook.

"Come out after dressing."

After saying that, Bao Ye turned and left.

And closed the door for her on the way out.

Seeing him leave, Jiang Ruan finally let out a complete sigh of relief, raising a hand to wipe away the non-existent sweat on her forehead.

Luckily, he wasn’t that much of a beast.

She really couldn’t take it anymore.

Jiang Ruan lingered in the bathroom for nearly an hour before coming out.

She had no choice, she had to do her hair, skin-care, body lotion, dry her hair...

When she came out again, she was exuding a fresh scent.

From afar, Bao Ye could smell it.

Raising a brow slightly, he looked over with a light laugh, "Smells this nice, did you use the whole bottle on yourself?"

Jiang Ruan: "..."

Does this person even know how to talk?

She was tidying her long hair, "I’m refusing to communicate with you."

Bao Ye chuckled, fingers typing away rapidly on the keyboard.

Then he shut off the computer and walked over.

Jiang Ruan was standing beside the sofa.

Wearing the same style robe as him, making her swan-like neck all the more snow-white and slender, with an understated allure.

Bao Ye, with his long arms, directly pulled her into his embrace, his palm resting on her slim waist, his dark eyes smiling.

"Quite a temper, huh?"

"Who told you to use the key to come in without my permission?" Jiang Ruan pursed her lips, "Do you know you’re violating my privacy?"

"When you’re with me, where would your privacy be?"

Jiang Ruan: "Everyone has a right to privacy, you know."

Looking at her unhappy face, Bao Ye embraced her, softened his tone, and said, "Alright, I was just worried you’d fall and lie to me without saying anything."

Jiang Ruan, unexpectedly, switched moods as quickly as flipping a page.

In an instant, she was all sunshine and smiles.

"Alright then, since you were genuinely concerned, I won’t hold it against you."

Bao Ye: "..."

"But next time don’t use the key and burst in without permission, it’s frightening."

Bao Ye said softly, "You could also try not locking the door next time."

Jiang Ruan glared at him, "In your dreams."
