209 I’m Not Embarrassed, So Why Are You Embarrassed?
“I won’t spoil it. Thank you, nanny.” After Nine said that, he leaned on his walking stick and sat outside the hall. He sat on the bench and straightened his injured leg. He bent down and began to wash the clothes in the wooden bucket.
Nanny Sheng boiled hot water and mixed it in the basin. Seeing that Nine was washing seriously, she turned around and returned to the hall to take care of Madam Qi.
Nine recalled the embarrassing things he had done just now and worked even harder. He slowly rubbed off the mud stains on his cloak.
He had never thought that he would be happy doing housework. Nine worked even harder. He finished writing the cloak and washed the dress. Finally, he fished out Gu Qingxue’s snow-white underwear from the water.
The woman’s snow-white underwear looked very small. It stuck together after being soaked in the water. At this moment, Nine’s hand was tightly grasping the spot directly in front of her chest.
Nine had never seen a woman’s underwear before. For a moment, he could neither hold it nor put it down.
Just when Nine was at a loss, Gu Qingxue walked in with a bright smile on her face.
“Grandma, nanny, I’m back!” Gu Qingxue finally found the fortune fruit she wanted on the mountain today. She came back early in joy. As soon as she entered the door, she saw Nine holding the underwear she was wearing, he looked at her with a red face.
For a moment, their eyes met.
“Nine, what did you do? Your face is so red,” Gu Qingxue raised her eyebrows and asked.
Nine did not say anything at first, then he pretended to be calm and said, “It’s not what you think it is.”
“This is my underwear, right?” Gu Qingxue could not help but find it funny when she saw that Nine was so shy just holding his underwear. She had a bad intention to tease him, “Nine, are you shy?”
“I didn’t do it on purpose. It was nanny who asked me to wash your clothes. I didn’t mean to offend you,” Nine explained with clear eyes.
Gu Qingxue could naturally tell that Nine did not have a bad intention, but his reaction was very interesting.
As a woman in the new era of the 21st century, Gu Qingxue used to like to wear a bikini to the beach for a vacation.
She was not an ordinary woman. In her opinion, Nine holding her underwear felt as if he was just holding her long johns.
To put it bluntly, she did not feel anything. She was not even shy, let alone mind it.
The more Gu Qingxue looked at Nine’s expression, the more she found it interesting. She could not help but approach him. When Nine was holding his breath, she burst out laughing, “Nine, you’re too interesting. I’m not embarrassed, so why are you embarrassed?”
“I, I’m not. I’m done washing up. I’m going back to rest now.” Nine finally came back to his senses and threw down the underwear. Then, he leaned on his walking stick and quickly returned to the north wing room, that speed was completely unlike what a lame person should have.
Gu Qingxue laughed even louder. She was in a great mood. Soon, she put this incident to the back of her mind and went into the room to tell Nanny Sheng the good news.
After Nine returned to the north wing room, he closed the door and found that his undershirt was soaked with sweat.
Sitting by the bed, he let out a long sigh of relief and quickly calmed down.
Recalling the scene just now, Nine’s face gradually warmed up.
Just as Nine kept telling himself to calm down, he looked up and saw the three children poking their heads through the gap of the door curiously, looking at him seriously.
“You guys… What’s the matter?” Nine propped up his walking stick and wanted to walk toward the three children.
