Chapter 126: No laughing
Outside the bathhouse.
There was a cloth curtain outside the bathhouse. Perhaps it was the sound of Jiang Huai’s footsteps approaching. A light call came from inside the bathhouse.
“Who is it?”
“It’s me, I’m back,” Jiang Huai replied softly.
After a moment, Wen Wanwan’s voice rose slightly from inside, “Senior Brother Jiang Huai, come in.”
Jiang Huai, standing outside the door, hesitated for a moment.
Luo Qingyu hadn’t really asked him to draw a clear line with Wen Wanwan, but now he felt strangely uneasy. Yet, if he hesitated too long, Wen Wanwan, with her sensitive mind, might notice something. After only seven or eight breaths, Wen Wanwan’s voice came again.
“Wanwan is dressed now.”
So Jiang Huai lifted the curtain and entered. Wen Wanwan was standing by the bathhouse, having just tied the sash of her clean Taoist robe. Her gown was still a bit disheveled, so she immediately reached out to straighten her collar.
Jiang Huai approached her, and Wen Wanwan looked up at him. But after a moment, her eyes showed concern as her fingertips gently touched his cheek.
“Senior Brother Jiang Huai looks so pale.”
