Chapter 129: Bathtub?
After they returned to the hotel and went back to their room, Lin Muxi, now wearing slippers, collapsed onto the sofa and started playing with her phone.
It wasn’t until Mo Ziyang finished preparing her clothes and came over that she sat up, curiously asking her good bro:
“Hey, Mo Ziyang, do we have any plans for tomorrow?”
“Of course we do.”
He tossed the pajamas she would change into after her shower onto her lap and sat down on the sofa.
“Tomorrow morning, we’ll go buy swimsuits first. Then in the afternoon, you can go play in the sea.”
“Ah… but can I still sleep in…?”
The moment she heard she had to go out early, the happiness in Lin Muxi’s eyes faded. She could only look at her good bro pitifully.
A holiday without sleeping in, could that even be called a holiday?
Besides, she was already used to sleeping late, and getting up early was nearly impossible for her.
Seeing the hope in her eyes, Mo Ziyang suddenly didn’t know what to say. The words he was about to say got swallowed back down.
But since this little wife was his, who else would he spoil if not her?
In the end, he could only rub her head fondly and nod, speaking gently.
“It’s fine. We’ll wait until you wake up, then we’ll go.”
“Hehe~ okay, let’s go then~”
Once her good bro agreed, Lin Muxi smiled again, grabbed his hand, and tried to pull him away.
“It’s already so late, where are we even going?” Mo Ziyang asked in confusion, not quite understanding.
Facing his question, Lin Muxi turned her head with a look that said, ‘What are you talking about?’
For a moment, she didn’t know if he was truly clueless or just teasing her. Normally, if she invited him to bathe together, he would be more than happy.
So instead of saying anything, she simply looked at him, lightly shaking the white nightdress in her hand.
???
At that moment, Mo Ziyang finally realized and wished he could slap himself.
How could he have been so dense and not noticed she was inviting him?
Looking at the girl in front of him, who now had a faint blush on her cheeks, a flicker of desire passed through his eyes, and the corners of his lips curved up.
Lin Muxi was no longer as shy and timid as before. As their feelings deepened, she had slowly started to show her truest side as a girl.
This silly, cute little thing, innocent yet carrying a bit of charm. Mo Ziyang couldn’t help but love her even more.
“Come on, let’s go shower.”
He stood up, threw his own clothes to her, and before she could react, scooped her up in his arms again.
He was delighted, but Lin Muxi wasn’t so thrilled.
Especially seeing the overly pleased expression on his face, her heart grew uneasy, afraid he might once again make her legs weak like before.
“Y-y-you… I only agreed to bathe with you, you’re not allowed to touch me!”
“Okay, okay, I won’t touch.”
Seeing her flushed face and panicked expression, Mo Ziyang’s protective side instantly kicked in, and he showered her with affection and care.
Anyway, once they started bathing, just a little teasing would probably make this silly girl throw herself at him.
The suite’s bathroom was very spacious. Not only was there a shower, but also a huge bathtub on the side, big enough for three or four people to soak in without a problem.
You could also say this was the first time Lin Muxi had ever seen a bathtub outside of Mo Ziyang’s home.
Her little curiosity was instantly stirred up. She wanted to try and see what it felt like to soak in a bath.
“What? You want to try bathing in it?”
Seeing how her eyes had been fixed on the bathtub from the moment they entered the bathroom, Mo Ziyang rubbed her head and asked.
And then he remembered he himself had never tried soaking in a bath while being close with this silly girl either.
Maybe they would even discover some strange new positions.
As he thought about it, an image of “a pair of lovers playing in the water” popped into his mind, making him excited.
But Lin Muxi wasn’t any better. If she weren’t standing in front of him, Mo Ziyang might have already seen her as a shy little “steam girl” hiding behind him, holding his hand.
“Let’s try, okay? Anyway… anyway, I’ve never soaked in a bath before...”
Her little face turned red, and her voice grew smaller, carrying a touch of shyness.
Mo Ziyang chuckled. He walked to the bathtub, rinsed it with water, then adjusted the temperature before filling it up.
Lin Muxi just stood beside him, staring blankly, not saying a word. She only fiddled with her fingers nervously, looking uneasy.
When the bathtub was finally full and the steam filled the room, she lightly poked his arm.
“What’s wrong?” Mo Ziyang turned his head, puzzled, after testing the water temperature.
“Take off my clothes, idiot...” Lin Muxi said with embarrassment, glaring at him, then turned around and lifted her hair, showing her pale neck.
The zipper of her dress wasn’t on the side, but on the back. With her short arms, it was hard for her to pull it down by herself without help.
But…
Mo Ziyang, standing behind her, knew very well. With her petite figure, she could actually slip out of the dress without even unzipping it.
This silly girl was clearly teasing him on purpose.
It seemed he had been too soft with her lately, and now she was getting bold.
As the dress slipped down, his palm rested lightly on her slim shoulder. He flicked her strap playfully.
“Ah~”
Feeling his touch, Lin Muxi shivered. Her fair skin immediately turned pink.
When she sensed he was about to take off her camisole, her heart suddenly panicked.
Before he could say anything, she hurried to speak, “I-I… I can do this part myself...”
“What? Tease me and now you want to run?” Mo Ziyang laughed.
As he spoke, he reached out to help take off her camisole too.
But this silly girl quickly squatted down to avoid him.
“No… not this one...”
Covering her chest with both hands, Lin Muxi crouched on the floor, trembling slightly, refusing to let him touch her.
Clearly, her sense of shame only allowed her to go this far. Anything more private, like her underwear, was absolutely off-limits.
“Alright, alright, fine. Do it yourself.”
“Then you turn around first. Don’t—don’t you dare peek.”
Looking at the silly girl squatting there refusing to stand up, Mo Ziyang couldn’t help but smile helplessly.
He really didn’t understand why she insisted on this.
Even before, when they were already in the bathroom together, Lin Muxi had always refused to let him touch her underclothes.
He just didn’t get it, he could touch her body, but touching her clothes was off-limits?
Since he couldn’t win against this little girl, Mo Ziyang finally turned around and said,
“Okay, I’ve turned around. Hurry up and change.”
