Shen Yanchen lifted his head and looked at her, asking, "Shall we shower together?"
As Gu Qimiao zipped up her pants, she refused, "No... I'll go first."
Shen Yanchen sat up, letting her go. She adjusted her pants as she hurried to the bathroom, without even taking her nightgown. Did she intend to come out naked later?
He rubbed his chin, licked his lips, turned on the bedroom light, took a bag from the drawer under the wardrobe, and placed it by the bathroom door. He then said to her inside, "There's clothes by the door. Get them yourself."
"I... I'll get them later."
Shen Yanchen didn't say more, his lips curving into a smile as he went to the master bathroom.
It was probably the fastest shower he had ever taken. Wearing just boxer shorts, he swaggered into her room.
The sound of water was still coming from her bathroom. He circled the bed once, having waited too long for this day. He had never felt this eager.
Everything had come so suddenly, yet it seemed too late.
