If there was one design flaw in this room, it was that the point where the bathroom met the living room floor was level.
When showering, if the water pressure was too high or the drain strainer in the bathroom wasn't opened, water would easily flow out.
Ke Teng went to shower, and Jian Fei went to eat dinner.
Midway through her meal, a clear stream of water snaked its way to her feet. It was then she remembered she had forgotten to remove the drain strainer!
Putting down her chopsticks, she hurried to push open the bathroom door.
The bathroom was filled with steam, and visibility was not very clear, but Ke Teng, being so tall and strong, couldn't be hidden.
Before, when Jian Fei bathed him, she had avoided his wound and only washed his upper body.
Today...
He was tall and slender, with a broad, smooth back, and a pair of wheat-colored buttocks, round like peaches.
The door opened, and Ke Teng, completely naked, his back to her, was rubbing his hair with both hands.
A sudden gust of cold air blew in, and he turned around. Their eyes met.
"..."
After all, there was a difference between men and women. Although she didn't dare to look down, and besides his small buttocks, Jian Fei saw nothing else, she couldn't help but blush.
"The water has overflowed! I came in to tell you to remove that strainer by your feet, otherwise the drainage will be too slow, and the whole room will be flooded soon."
Ke Teng had never encountered such a problem; showering could flood the entire room.
He turned off the shower and looked at the floor.
"What strainer?"
"The one by your feet. Just kick it aside."
Without slippers, Ke Teng stepped onto the floor barefoot and kicked.
Jian Fei heard the sound, "Okay, I'm leaving. You continue your shower."
But Ke Teng called out to her, "Wait."
Jian Fei stopped. He turned around, and they faced each other. Inadvertently, she saw something she shouldn't have.
Even though Jian Fei was a doctor and understood human anatomy very well.
It was still theoretical knowledge.
To see it in reality, and so magnificently...
She suppressed her pounding heart and pretended nothing was wrong.
"Is there something else?"
"I've realized I have no privacy in front of you. Anytime, anywhere, you can look if you want. Do you really not see me as a man, or are you deliberately taking advantage of me?"
"..." Jian Fei paused for two seconds. "I said, between a doctor and a patient..."
"Don't use that to dismiss me. It was one thing to see my muscles before, but now you've seen my whole body..."
As he spoke, Ke Teng felt a certain part of him uncontrollably stir.
To cover himself, he turned the faucet back on, letting the mist billow out.
"Since you're so open, for fairness, I've shown myself to you, so you should show yourself to me."
"What?"
"You said that in the eyes of doctors, people are just walking meat, right? No distinction between male or female, old or young."
"To be honest, I'm still a virgin. It's too unfair to have been seen like this."
Jian Fei's cheeks flushed crimson, her face feeling as if it were burning.
Fortunately, the steam was thick, so Ke Teng probably couldn't see clearly.
"Are you sick? I think you're doing this because..."
"Don't worry, I have no such intentions towards you."
Ke Teng said, "A woman like you, who isn't pretty and has no feminine charm, I don't even see you as a woman. I'm just doing this to prove a point."
"Why can you see me and I can't see you? Hurry up!"
Jian Fei clenched her back teeth, rapidly calculating in her mind how best to refuse him.
Ke Teng, however, turned off the water, grabbed her pink bath towel from the side, wrapped it around himself, and walked towards her with an imposing aura.
"Afraid? That means you're not as open as you claim. You're deliberately taking advantage of me?"
Who's taking advantage of you?
While you are indeed somewhat attractive and have some money, not all women are interested in rich second-generation heirs.
If you want to look, then look! What's the big deal!
If he really dared to do anything to her, it would be a perfect opportunity to kick him out legitimately!
They switched places.
Ke Teng stood by the door, and Jian Fei went inside.
Her heart pounded, but she tried to remain calm, quickly pulling off her clothes and placing them on the washing machine lid.
She turned on the faucet.
In the swirling mist, she removed her last layer of clothing.
She stood straight, her gaze cold as she looked at Ke Teng.
"Are you satisfied?"
Ke Teng looked at her fair skin, her gracefully curved figure, and felt a jolt in his heart.
She usually kept herself so modestly covered, he hadn't expected her figure to be quite so good...
The part of him that shouldn't be, started to stir again.
This place was not meant to be lingered in.
He took only two glances and quickly turned away.
"Now it's fair. Go ahead and wash."
The bed was very soft, the small floral quilt was washed clean, carrying the scent of sunshine and laundry detergent.
Having walked so much during the day, and now full from dinner, after a shower and relaxing, drowsiness washed over her.
Ke Teng burrowed into Jian Fei's quilt and quickly fell asleep.
When Jian Fei came out of the bathroom, he was sprawled out like a starfish, occupying her bed completely.
With no other option, she had to sleep on the floor again.
The next day, Jian Fei was woken by her alarm.
She got up first to wash, change, and make breakfast, then came to wake him.
Ke Teng used to have a very bad temper when waking up.
If someone dared to disturb him while he was still asleep, he'd want to jump up and strangle them.
But after being tormented by Jian Fei for half a month, he had grown accustomed to it.
Hearing her voice, he calmly opened his eyes.
"What time is it?"
"After breakfast, it will be time for work. I need to lock the door. You can't stay home alone, can you? Get up."
Ke Teng lazily sat up, threw off the covers, and started to move downwards.
It wasn't until he felt the cool morning air and realized something was amiss that he remembered he was naked.
Jian Fei and he simultaneously looked towards that spot. In the early morning, it was full of vigor...
His ears turned red with embarrassment, and he quickly sat back down, covering himself with the quilt.
"I don't even have any clothes. How am I supposed to go out?"
Jian Fei was also a bit taken aback. It had been exaggerated yesterday, but today...
She took out a set of clothes she had prepared earlier and threw them in front of him.
"You have two minutes. Come out and eat quickly. I'll be leaving in ten minutes."
She tossed him a black casual tracksuit that had been worn by someone else. The fabric was ordinary, but Ke Teng had no choice.
He put it on and lazily walked out.
Jian Fei told him there was a toothbrush in the bathroom.
He washed his face and brushed his teeth, then returned to the dining table and provocatively raised an eyebrow at Jian Fei.
"I thought no one wanted a woman like you. So there really is a man, and you're even living together?"
"Where did he go? If he finds out I slept at your place last night, will he have a problem with you?"
Seeing his schadenfreude and his wicked desire for chaos, Jian Fei shot him a cold glare.
"It's none of your business. Do you want to eat or not? If not, get out now."
"I'm just kindly concerned about you, and look at you..."
Jian Fei raised her hand and made a gesture of giving an injection. Ke Teng's scalp tingled, and he could only shut up obediently.
