Um?
Is it her illusion?
Why did she think he looked nervous just now?
Instead, he seemed to be relieved when he heard her say that she couldn't cook.
However, since he didn't need her help, she could go upstairs and take a shower first.
"Then I'll go up first..." However, just as she was about to go upstairs, before she even moved her steps, the man grabbed her wrist.
She turned around slightly and met Lu Yunzhou's nervous gaze.
The man's face in the living room, with his eyebrows furrowed, always looked like he didn't trust her.
Those dark eyes looked at her and said in a low voice: "Remember, don't touch the water with your hands."
Shen Chaoxi was slightly surprised. Her fingers were coated with medicine. Of course she knew this.
But when she turned around, she saw the man's dark eyes. When he looked at her, his eyes seemed to be filled with roiling darkness.
At that moment, it was like a tide, but there was no movement. All the emotions in his eyes were captured by him in those eyes.
So much so that Shen Chaoxi was stunned for a while and looked at him, clearly wanting to know.
But she was stunned. What she wanted to say reached her lips, her lips opened slightly, and she answered him in a low voice: "Okay."
Hearing this answer, Lu Yunzhou frowned and then slowly let go of her hand.
He felt a little more relieved.
In the living room of the villa, there is a high, huge floor-to-ceiling window with white gauze curtains, covering half of the view outside the glass window.
The dark night, around seven o'clock in the evening, gradually merged with the quiet evening breeze.
Upstairs in the villa, in the master bedroom, Shen Chaoxi took clean clothes and went to the bathroom.
Only then did she see that the daily necessities she and Lu Yunzhou bought in the mall last time were all neatly placed in their proper places.
In her bathroom, there are also her dental cups, toothbrushes, various toiletries, towels, etc.
When she first came here, there were no daily necessities for girls. Now, at a glance, they are all available.
It was as if the Yuqing Garden where Lu Yunzhou lived alone had a little more warmth and the presence of one more person.
The scab on her hand cracked slightly due to the exertion she exerted when she was in the hospital today, and some blood flowed out.
But fortunately, it is healed now. Shen Chaoxi thought that it should be no problem to fill the bathtub with water and take a hot bath.
So, she closed the bathroom door.
The bathtub in this master bedroom is very large. When the hot water is filled, the mist of water overflows instantly.
With the feeling of warm water covering her whole body, Shen Chaoxi felt as if she had truly come to life.
Coupled with the fact that she slept in Lu Yunzhou's ward today, her exhausted body was now feeling much better.
Although Shen Chaoxi is from the military region, in the final analysis, she is the spoiled eldest daughter of the Shen family.
In the military area, she could not care about anything while performing various tasks, but when she returned home, she still felt that soaking in hot water was the most comfortable thing.
She put her thin and white arms on the edge of the bathtub, leaned back gently, and closed her eyes comfortably.
Unconsciously, she fell asleep again.
Maybe, I didn't fall asleep, but maybe, in such an extremely comfortable atmosphere, my whole body was relaxed and my mood was very comfortable.
As a result, her mind gradually became blank, until a touch of blood splashed on her blank area.
…
She woke up suddenly, and the moment she opened her eyes, there seemed to be blood surging in her eyes.
Unexpectedly, it overflowed from her cold eyes.

She stayed in the bathroom for almost an hour, maybe less. In the middle, someone came outside the villa.
It seemed that Lu Yunzhou called and called someone to deliver food.
Later, the villa fell into silence, with only the night outside the window reflecting little by little on the deserted front garden.
After she took a shower and went downstairs, her face was pale, but she saw the slender and tall figure in the brightly lit living room downstairs.
Lu Yunzhou had just come out of the kitchen. When she looked over, she happened to see the man's fair and handsome face with lowered eyebrows under the light.
His expression was indifferent, his fingers were long and well-proportioned, and he held two plates of steaming dishes in his hands.
When she came down the stairs and got closer, she saw the ones on the table, which looked like they tasted great.
Home cooking?
At that moment, the things in Shen Chaoxi's mind seemed to be expelled by something. Instead, what occupied all her attention became the four or five dishes and a soup that Lu Yunzhou put on the table.
"The bath?"
The man's voice was low, but there was a gentleness in it. He said this as if he had said it countless times at home.
"Come over for dinner."
With his long bony fingers, he placed the bowls and chopsticks for both of them on the dining table. The five dishes and one soup were all still steaming and fragrant.
"Did you do all this?"
Shen Chaoxi suddenly felt, is there anything else this man can't do?
"Yes." Lu Yunzhou said in a low voice, his eyes lowered to the dining table, and he was doing what he was doing seriously.
He knows how to cook. Today, the dishes on this table are all cooked to her liking, except that there are no chili peppers in the dishes.
As if he could tell what she was thinking, Lu Yunzhou pursed his lips, his voice was slightly calm and serious, and he lowered his voice.
“No spicy food.”
"You still have injuries on your hands,"
This is his explanation for the dishes he cooked tonight.
Shen Chaoxi saw that he had done everything and could eat, but she could not touch the water with her hands.
So, she sat down at the dining table. She had just taken a shower and felt relaxed and comfortable.
When faced with such a dinner, which was in line with her taste at the Shen family, she actually looked at the dishes on the table, feeling a little lost for a moment.
"Chaochao, can you eat next time?"
"Wait until you are healed." A low and hoarse voice came.
At that moment, Shen Chaoxi raised her head and looked at him with slightly dazed eyes. This noble man sat down in front of her.
Are you coaxing her?
Maybe, just now, all Shen Chaoxi was thinking was that this dish looked delicious, and she was indeed hungry.
She never thought that she would mind if Lu Yunzhou didn't cook spicy food today.
But suddenly, when Lu Yunzhou spoke to her like this, in such an apologetic tone, she was a little stunned.
She was a bit confused.
Why would he do this to her?
good.
She wasn't blind to his attitude towards her, nor was she blind, pretending not to see it on purpose.
She was just a little unsure. She had pretended to be in front of him too many times before.
She even used her usual smile and indifference to hide her inner feelings.
Even she sometimes forgets her original character. She is good at hiding her emotions.
She is better at containing all her emotions and hiding them under her calm appearance so that no one can see, notice or discover her.
But now, she vaguely felt that Lu Yunzhou didn't seem to care about this.
I never asked her why she did that before.
He was just being nice to her.
This made Shen Chaoxi a little confused. He was kind to her because of the engagement.
Or maybe it was because of what happened before, or what Dongzhou did to her.
Are you trying your best to make amends?
