My Multiple Identities Revealed After Marrying the Bigshot
Chapter 253: Lu Youxi’s nose was firmly pressed against Zhou Shuyan’s cheek.

Chapter 253: Chapter 253: Lu Youxi’s nose was firmly pressed against Zhou Shuyan’s cheek.

"I... I won’t kick you anymore," Lu Youxi said with a red face, "I promise!"

With his hand holding her foot, she felt uncomfortable, not to mention the heat from his palm traveling up from her foot.

She didn’t know when that heat turned into electricity, making her entire body tingle.

She couldn’t muster any strength in her leg and wouldn’t have been able to kick Zhou Shuyan anyway.

Lu Youxi struggled a little.

Although Zhou Shuyan was reluctant to let go, he had to release her hand with a sigh of regret in his heart.

Lu Youxi subconsciously wanted to kick him again, her foot almost stretched out, but she suddenly remembered her promise.

She, Lu Youxi, had always kept her word, so she quickly drew her foot back under the blanket and hid it.

Lu Youxi then sneakily observed Zhou Shuyan’s reaction.

Seeing he didn’t react at all, not even a glance downward, she assumed he hadn’t noticed her almost breaking her promise.

Lu Youxi quietly let out a sigh of relief.

The toes hidden under the blanket curled unconsciously, reminding Zhou Shuyan in a soft voice, "You should get down!"

Zhou Shuyan chuckled and briskly said "Good night," before turning to get off the bed without a hint of hesitation.

Lu Youxi muttered to herself, seemingly becoming a gentleman again at such a moment.

"Good night," Lu Youxi also mumbled in response to his "Good night" and covered herself with the blanket.

Though she was sure she wouldn’t be able to sleep now.

Her feet, hidden under the blanket, rubbed against each other.

Back in Hexing Village, Lu Youxi didn’t have the means to fuss over personal care.

After arriving at Jing University, her roommates Lu Xiaohui and the others came from well-off families with generous living allowances.

That’s why they could afford to play with the stock market.

So they were always particularly attentive to taking care of their bodies, inside and out.

Like during the military training, Lu Youxi was the only one in the dorm without sunscreen.

It was only later that Lu Youxi started using hand cream, following them.

That was also because, when Lu Youxi didn’t have any, Lu Xiaohui and the other two would always apply some on her each time they used it.

Lu Youxi felt embarrassed always using theirs, and eventually bought her own to use.

After earning money from stock trading with Lu Youxi, Lu Xiaohui and the others paid even more attention to personal care.

Not just internal conditioning and external nourishment, nor merely taking care of their faces, necks, hands, but also their feet.

They bought foot scrubs, tools for removing dead skin, foot masks, and even applied hand cream thickly to their feet.

They also dragged Lu Youxi into buying these products.

Lu Youxi said that even if she bought them, she probably wouldn’t remember to apply.

But Xia Jinqiao said that since they all lived together, they could do it together each time and wouldn’t forget.

So Lu Youxi was led by them into taking better care of herself.

It really was quite effective.

Moreover, Lu Youxi’s results were more noticeable than theirs.

They didn’t have to work in the fields like Lu Youxi had since she was young; they just needed to keep moisturized.

But Lu Youxi, having worked so much over the years, had developed calluses on her feet.

However, after months of maintenance with her roommates,

Like the calluses on her hands, they softened after soaking and were scrubbed off, revealing softer skin underneath.

They moisturized and nourished the skin with hand cream and lotion.

Now, when Lu Youxi rubbed her feet together, they felt so soft and tender.

Only the left foot, which Zhou Shuyan had held, still felt warm.

Lu Youxi had just rubbed her feet together a couple of times when Zhou Shuyan, who had been lying down on the bed quietly since getting off, suddenly spoke, "You were working every day in Hexing Village, how come your feet are so soft?"

Lu Youxi’s mind snapped at his comment, and without thinking, she grabbed the pillow from under her head and threw it at Zhou Shuyan.

"Ow!" Zhou Shuyan cried out softly, seemingly subconsciously grabbing the pillow and pulling it toward him.

Lu Youxi, still in the act of hitting him with the pillow and not letting go,

Intended to hit him and draw back for another strike, but after just one hit, Zhou Shuyan had already grasped the pillow.

Unseen by Lu Youxi as she tried to pull it back, she found she couldn’t move it.

Lu Youxi gritted her teeth and put more effort into it.

Just as she pulled back a little, a force yanked from Zhou Shuyan’s direction.

Before Lu Youxi had the chance to let go, she, along with the pillow, was pulled down by Zhou Shuyan.

Lu Youxi, completely unprepared for the fall, couldn’t care about the pillow.

She didn’t notice that Zhou Shuyan took the pillow from her hands and tossed it behind him.

The pillow even hit the wall toward which Zhou Shuyan’s head was facing before it fell.

Thus, Lu Youxi landed right into Zhou Shuyan’s arms.

Lu Youxi was slim; where she should be soft, she was very soft, but where she should be thin, she truly was.

Zhou Shuyan’s ribs felt the hit from Lu Youxi’s impact, and he could feel the bones of her ribs.

It really did hurt a bit.

Yet his chest, where she landed, felt so soft that Zhou Shuyan let out a muffled groan.

Lu Youxi, thinking she had hurt him, quickly sat up to ask, "Did I hurt you?"

Lu Youxi didn’t even take the time to ponder why she was so anxious, why her heart felt regretful and pained from just having bumped him.

Her first instinct was to touch and press on his chest, "How is it?"

"Cough." Zhou Shuyan, seeing that Lu Youxi was sitting oblivious on his legs, her long hair cascading down because she leaned forward to check where he was hit, and the tips of her hair lightly touching his body,

He couldn`t help but reach out a hand, pinching the tips of her hair, not needing to come any closer to smell the faint fragrance from her hair.

Lu Youxi asked twice without hearing Zhou Shuyan’s response, and then looked at him suspiciously.

Surely the man hadn’t been rendered speechless by the hit.

Her bed wasn’t that high, was it?

But seeing Zhou Shuyan’s gesture, Lu Youxi’s face turned beet red in an instant.

What... what was he doing!

Why did his action seem so suggestive!

"Zhou Shuyan!" Lu Youxi called out softly, but before she could utter the rest, Zhou Shuyan suddenly sat up.

At that moment, Lu Youxi was sitting on his lap.

When Zhou Shuyan sat up abruptly, their noses nearly touched.

Their noses almost collided, as did their lips.

Lu Youxi recoiled in shock, seemingly about to fall backward.

Zhou Shuyan, with quick reflexes, caught her by the lower back and pulled her back.

This time, their noses rubbed against each other.

Lu Youxi’s nose firmly touched Zhou Shuyan’s cheek.

Their lips pressed together, tight and sealed.

Lu Youxi gasped, her eyes wide open.

Her hands clutched Zhou Shuyan’s shoulders, her palms unconsciously gripping his sleepwear tightly.
