Chapter 228: 228 Good Night (Fourth Watch)
Mo Zhixuan rolled his Adam’s apple without changing his expression, "Go to sleep, it’s getting late, you still have school tomorrow."
His voice was as low and cold as ever.
"Sleep?!" Chu Jin’s voice was somewhat surprised, her mind went blank for a few seconds before she followed up, "And what about you?"
Sure enough, as soon as she uttered those words, Chu Jin regretted them, hoping Mr. Mo wouldn’t misunderstand her!
She really didn’t have any other thoughts, it was just an impulsive question.
"I’m going to take a shower first, you sleep on the bed tonight, I’ll sleep on the sofa." Saying so, Mr. Mo got up from the sofa.
Hearing this, Chu Jin sat on the bed with a sense of relief, burrowed into the covers, pulled the duvet over her head, and covered her entire head like an ostrich.
The duvet still retained the coolness of mint, coupled with a faint smell of tobacco, which was quite pleasant...
Mo Zhixuan paused in his steps, his stern brows softening a bit.
He was a person with a penchant for cleanliness, but for some reason, seeing her bare feet on the floor before climbing onto the bed didn’t incite any anger in him.
Instead, he worried more about whether her feet would catch cold.
Seeing her in bed now, he quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
He stepped over, picked up the hairdryer from the side, and gently lifted the duvet.
The abrupt brightness made Chu Jin instinctively raise her hand to shield her forehead, squinting at the man standing by the bed, "Do you need something?"
Mo Zhixuan replied in his usual tone, "It’s bad for your health to sleep with wet hair, get up, let me dry it for you."
Chu Jin slowly sat up in bed, looking up at Mo Zhixuan, "That’s okay, I can dry it myself. You don’t have to trouble yourself, you should go back to sleep."
As she spoke, she reached out to take the hairdryer from Mr. Mo’s hand, but he didn’t give her the chance.
"Let me help you," came the deep voice from above her.
No sooner had he spoken than his hand with distinctly articulated knuckles rested on her head, his long, well-proportioned fingers passing through her hair, turned on the hairdryer switch, and he began to dry her hair earnestly.
The tress in his hand was soft and silky, even softer and smoother than the feel of precious top-grade satin, a delicate and warm sensation that was almost too tempting to let go of.
The jet-black hair against her fair skin created a strikingly beautiful visual impact.
This was probably Mr. Mo’s first time actually drying a girl’s hair; his actions weren’t very skilled, but they were incredibly gentle.
The sound of the hairdryer gradually dwindled, its residual hum slowly fading into the air.
The cool breath steadily flowed through his fingertips into her scalp.
Mr. Mo paused for a few seconds, then withdrew his hand, now free from her hair, placed the hairdryer to one side and said in a low voice, "Your hair is dry now, go to sleep, goodnight."
His low voice retained a bit of its cold edge, still as calm as before.
"Goodnight." Chu Jin glanced up at him, then pulled up the duvet and slipped back into the cocoon of her covers.
Fu Lanshen tenderly tucked her in, "Have a good sleep, goodnight, I’ll wake you up in the morning."
Chu Jin nodded, "Goodnight."
Just when Chu Jin thought Mo Zhixuan was about to leave, he stopped, leaned down, and gently kissed her.
Chu Jin immediately pulled up the duvet, covering her head too, feeling somewhat too bashful to look at him directly.
Until, the sound of footsteps faded away.
