âWhat should I do? What should I do? He Yuyao is coming; what should I do?â
Fang Yunshuâs anxious voice came from outside the door.
âI thought it was something serious.â Ye Xiaofei said while washing his hair, âWhat difference does it make if she comes?â
Fang Yunshu was in a state of panic, saying, âNo! No! She absolutely cannot find out that youâre at my place, absolutely not.â
Ye Xiaofei replied, âAlright, 1â11 go out now and hide for a while.â
âItâs too late; sheâs already in the elevator just now.â Fang Yunshu stamped her foot.
Fang Lingâerâs sweet voice came through, âMommy, you better hide in the bathroom. Iâll open the door for Auntie, and then tell her youâre taking a shower.â
Ye Xiaofei couldnât help but be relieved and amazed at his daughterâs clever idea.
âWhat?!â Fang Yunshu exclaimed, seemingly enticed by the suggestion.
Fang Lingâer directly opened the door to the bathroom and said, âHurry up! Otherwise, there will be sounds of water, and youâll be exposed.â
Fang Yunshu didnât have time to think and was pushed into the bathroom by Fang Lingâer.
Ye Xiaofei stared in astonishment at Fang Yunshu. This situation was too sudden, leaving him unprepared. He could only stand there blankly, not knowing what to do.
âClose the curtain!â Fang Yunshu immediately turned her head and said fiercely.
Ye Xiaofei then noticed that he was facing Fang Yunshu directly and quickly turned around, pulling the curtain shut, saying, â1 didnât mean it.â
The bathroom had a separate shower area with a water-resistant and opaque curtain. But when Ye Xiaofei showered, he felt a bit suffocated if he completely closed it, so he only pulled it halfway.
Fang Yunshu hummed and said, âWhy bother explaining? What if He Yuyao comes in later?â
Seeing Fang Yunshu being so anxious that she didnât even care about the situation, Ye Xiaofei thought for a moment and said, âHow long will He Yuyao be staying here?â
âItâs hard to say. Sometimes she stays at my place, and other times she just visits briefly,â Fang Yunshu replied.
âIf sheâs just visiting briefly, then itâs simple. You talk to her for a while in the bathroom, then come out. Iâll hide in the restroom. But thereâs a problem. You should look like youâve taken a shower. Otherwise, if your hair isnât wet, sheâll definitely see through it.â
Fang Yunshu paused for a moment and then angrily said, âAre you suggesting I take a shower with you?â
Ye Xiaofei rolled his eyes and said, âGoodness, Iâm just helping you analyze the situation. Whether you do it or not is up to you.â
As they were about to discuss further, there came a knocking sound on the door.
âComing! Coming!â Fang Lingâer loudly answered, also reminding Ye Xiaofei and Fang Yunshu.
The door opened, and Fang Lingâer cheerfully said, âHello, Auntie!â
He Yuyao exclaimed with delight, âOh my, our little Lingâer is so impressive!â
Fang Lingâer obediently said, âAuntie, come on in and have a seat. My mommy is taking a bath.â
âAlright, you go play, and Iâll go talk to your mom.â
Inside the bathroom, Fang Yunshu was instantly on edge. The lock on this bathroom door wasnât very reliable; a simple pull from the outside could open it.
She was truly afraid that He Yuyao might just barge in.
Ye Xiaofei had never quite understood Fang Yunshuâs way of thinking. What difference would it make if they told He Yuyao about their relationship earlier?
But now, Fang Yunshu was insistent, and he could only support her decision.
Ye Xiaofei quickly turned on the showerhead and began washing himself, making sure water sounds were audible.
âYunshu, you were just on the phone with me. How come youâre taking a shower so soon? Donât you want to talk to me?â He Yuyaoâs voice echoed from outside the door, but fortunately, she didnât open the bathroom door.
Fang Yunshu hurriedly replied, â1 was already taking a shower when you called.â
He Yuyao chuckled, âHeh heh, 1 knew it.â
âWhatâs the matter? Why did you come over to my place again?â Fang Yunshu asked.
He Yuyaoâs tone instantly filled with excitement as she said, âWell, you know, yesterday he hugged me.â
Fang Yunshu instinctively asked, âWho hugged you?â
âYe, the divine physician. He hugged me from behind, placed his hand on my belly, and gently caressed it. I leaned against him, and it felt like my soul was flying.â
Fang Yunshuâs face darkened, âYou let someone take advantage of you, and youâre so happy about it. Canât you be more sensible?â
He Yuyao excitedly said, âOf course, Iâm happy! That feeling was just too wonderful. I wish he would hold me like that for the rest of my life. But unfortunately⦠he only hugged me for a while and let go after finishing my acupuncture.â
Fang Yunshu humphed, âCanât you have some self-respect?â
He Yuyao said, âNo way, heâs such a great man. If I act reserved, I might lose him to some other woman. I have to seize any opportunity I get.â
âThere are plenty of fish in the sea, and good men are everywhere.â
âHeâs not easy to find like this. Oh, youâre so slow. I canât wait anymore. My stomach feels uncomfortable; I need to use the restroom first.â
As soon as she finished speaking, Ye Xiaofei knew the drama was about to unfold. As expected, he heard the curtain being pulled, and Fang Yunshu swiftly walked in..
