As Shao Xian dipped herself in the bathtub, her face went flush red. She could not tell if it had to do with the warmth of the water or the fact that Li Yiming and Sai Gao were on the other side of the thin curtain.
Although Sai Gao's house was s.p.a.cious, the interior consisted of only one room, meaning that even the bathroom was exposed. She did not feel as unsettled while sleeping as she was able to cover herself, but taking a bath in such an open s.p.a.ce was quite an odd experience.
After spending an entire day outside and exercising after returning home, Shao Xian's body became unbearably sticky with sweat.
As Shao Xian's thoughts wandered, she thought about the moment she came out of her bath — when a woman was at her most attractive state, and wished for Sai Gao to leave some private time between her and Li Yiming.
'I wonder what they're doing. I can't hear anything… Are they out for a smoke on the balcony again?' Shao Xian thought as she played around with water. She knew that Li Yiming was not someone she could hope to be with, but she wished to at least not have any regrets later on in life.
Li Yiming had entered her life only a few weeks ago. She did not know what background he had or what he did for a living, but she did know that he was a person that she would never be able to forget. Her longing for love, which had long gone cold from living alone, was burning once again.
Shao Xian stood up as quietly as possible and tiptoed to the giant mirror beside the bathtub. She examined her slender legs, her spotless skin, and her b.r.e.a.s.t.s. For the first time in a long while, Shao Xian could feel her heart race as she thought about what she was going to attempt.
Shao Xian picked up the bath towel and finished drying herself. After putting on her bathrobe, she tightened the silk belt just enough to reveal her attractive curves.
'Thank you, Sai Gao.' It was all thanks to the effort that Sai Gao put to give her her near-perfect appearance. It was only a few days since they have met, but she knew that she could always count on him, and she trusted him wholeheartedly.
After a final smile in the mirror to pump herself up, Shao Xian slowly pulled on the curtain and walked out. She put one hand on the wall and the other right in front of her body, trying to give the impression that she was hiding herself in shyness from Li Yiming.
