He should have punished her severely, taught her a profound lesson.
But despite all the curses she hurled at him, he didn’t even get angry...
In her view, the only explanation for Rong Shaoze’s abnormal behavior was that he had some other ulterior motive, which made her suspicious and defensive, compelled to guard against him.
Seeing through her thoughts, the man still smiled gently, "I don’t want to do anything else, just want to nurse your health back to normal."
"It’s all your fault that I ended up !"
"That’s why I’m here to compensate you now. It’s my fault for making you sick, so I should be responsible for taking care of you."
Lin Xinlan was startled once more, "Rong Shaoze, what are you plotting exactly?"
This man was super off today.
"I told you, I just want to nurse your health. Now, let me take you to bathe. Haven’t you taken a bath today? Tao Hua said you must bathe every day, wash off the sweat, and prevent bacteria from breeding so your body can heal quickly."
Lin Xinlan suddenly realized, and asked with indignant shame, "The past two days while I was unconscious, was it you who bathed me?!"
Rong Shaoze grinned, a smile akin to a cat that got the cream, cunning and proud, "That’s right, I’ve been the one bathing you these past two days. Since I’ve already bathed you twice, I wouldn’t mind doing it a third time, or a fourth, or a fifth... or for a lifetime."
Lin Xinlan’s face turned red instantly, and she glared at him furiously, "No need! Now that I’m awake, I can bathe myself, I don’t need your precious hands to do it!"
"But I’m happy to bathe you."
"You might be willing, but I’m not!" She began to push his body again, trying to stand up.
Rong Shaoze suddenly scooped her up and headed to the bathroom.
Lin Xinlan’s face changed dramatically, and she struggled vigorously, "Put me down, I can bathe myself, I don’t need you to touch me!"
"Behave, your body is very weak; let me do it for you."
"I’m not so weak that I can’t take a bath on my own! Rong Shaoze, put me down! Aren’t you being too shameless? I don’t need your help, why do you insist on being so clingy?"
Lin Xinlan really reached a point where no words were off-limits.
She was completely out of patience with Rong Shaoze, and the level of disdain she felt for him was extremely, extremely high.
When someone despises something or someone so much, it shows in their speech, actions, or even in an expression or a glance.
Right now, she was in that exact state.
Unfortunately, Rong Shaoze still ignored her harsh words.
He pushed open the bathroom door, positioned her next to the bathtub, took a step back, crossed his arms, and watched her.
"You said you could, didn’t you? Try it and see if you really can."
Lin Xinlan paused, then defiantly lifted her chin, "Of course I can! Please leave, I’m going to take a bath now."
"Take off your clothes and get into the bathtub yourself. I want to see with my own eyes that you can really bathe yourself, then I’ll leave."
"You..." How could she undress with him standing here!
"Haven’t you heard of the term ’don’t look at indecency’?!"
Rong Shaoze arched an eyebrow and smirked devilishly, "We are husband and wife, there’s no such thing as indecency between us. Spouses should be indecent with each other; without that, we wouldn’t be called a married couple."
"I told you, we are not husband and wife!"
"Do you want me to publish our marriage certificate and let the whole world judge whether we are a married couple or not?"
