Chapter 19: Sleep! Sleep Now!
Yan Zhen Guo always means what he says.
After setting the fire, Yan Zhen Guo stood up and walked out, grabbing the towel by her side as he passed by, heading directly to the living room.
Gu Fuqiao thought, Yan Zhen Guo is actually not bad... at least he's not completely ignoring her.
If not, given her proficiency in lighting fires, it would take at least an hour...
By the time she finishes bathing, it'll be past midnight!
The fire in the stove burned brightly, quickly boiling the water in the large iron pot.
Gu Fuqiao stood up from behind the stove, and after lifting the pot lid, she was stumped by the full pot of water.
She glanced around the kitchen and spotted a knee-high iron bucket next to the water tank!
"Perfect for holding water!" Gu Fuqiao used a water ladle to transfer the boiling hot water from the pot into the iron bucket.
The iron bucket didn't look very big, but she realized its large capacity once she started filling it with water.
Looking at the steaming iron bucket, Gu Fuqiao took a deep breath, gathered her strength, and tightly gripped the bucket handle with both hands.
