Chapter 145 Leave the door open tonight

Lin Weidong's response gave Qin Huairu full confidence and filled her with enthusiasm.

She carried buckets of hot water, one by one, into the bathtub in the room.

Based on the experience I've gained in the past two days, I've prepared tea and snacks in advance for relaxing in the bath.

When she carried the tea tray back into the room, Lin Weidong had already taken off his clothes and was about to step into the bathtub.

Qin Huairu glanced at it only once before lowering her head, feeling her face burning and slightly itchy...

But she was holding something and didn't have time to scratch, so she put the tea tray on the table next to the bathtub and wanted to leave quickly.

Lin Weidong called out to her again.

"Huai Ru, are you free? If you are, could you rub my back? I can't reach your back."

"Huh!? I...I'm free!"

Qin Huai scratched his cheek quickly, his tone shifting from hesitant to resolute in an instant.

Sister Xue Ru said the other day that you should seize any opportunity that comes your way.

Such intimate gestures are enough to bring me closer to Lin Weidong, I can't let this opportunity pass!

When Qin Huairu's palm touched Lin Weidong's back, an unusual atmosphere began to gather in the room.

Qin Huai kept silently telling herself it was okay, Xue Ru wouldn't mind...

She hypnotized herself and then got busy.

However, the right hand, which was wrapped in a towel and used to scrub the body, did not have as much range of motion as the left hand, which was used to splash water to wash.

She even instinctively used her fingernails to gently trace the muscles and skin on Ming Lin Weidong's back.

This is a move she tried herself while taking a shower.

It feels very comfortable when your fingertips glide lightly across your skin.

She almost started to seduce him openly, so how could Lin Weidong disappoint her?

He raised his arm and scratched his back as if it were itchy, the movement was a little violent, and the splash of water he stirred up soaked Qin Huairu's clothes on her chest.

"Hey! Sorry, Huairu, are you alright?"

Lin Weidong quickly apologized and reached out to wipe it.

The touch on the fortress was not offensive to Qin Huairu at this moment; rather, it was as refreshing and soothing as drinking a large glass of ice water on a hot summer day.

"It's nothing..." she replied softly, biting her lip.

As if to make it easier for Lin Weidong to make his move, she not only didn't move away but moved even closer. When she met Lin Weidong's surprised gaze, she blinked her big, watery eyes in encouragement.

Lin Weidong's surprise was not entirely feigned; at least half of it was genuine.

This girl... she's got quite a bit of stuff! The feel is really nice!

What was supposed to be a gentle bath turned into a romantic bath for the two of them as they rushed into each other's arms. Qin Huairu didn't even know when she had fallen into the bathtub.

She was already completely captivated by Lin Weidong's magical hands, forgetting even what she wanted to do, mechanically and obediently cooperating...

Sinking into depravity...

"Huai Ru? Xiao Qin? Where are they?"

After an unknown amount of time, Qin Huairu suddenly came to her senses and heard Erhu's wife calling from outside the courtyard.

She opened her eyes and visibly became flustered.

She never expected things to progress so quickly. She had only planned to let Lin Weidong take advantage of her and leave an impression, and then offer herself to Xue Ru and the others once they accepted her.

But now, my clothes are soaked! I can't even come up with a decent excuse.

"What should we do? What should we do?"

Qin Huai looked at Lin Weidong, her pupils filled with helplessness and panic.

Lin Weidong suddenly felt his fingers being tightly wrapped, bringing him an unprecedented experience.

An idea came to him, and his face showed panic. He pulled his fingers out to comfort Qin Huairu.

"It's alright, it's alright. Erhu's wife won't go into the main room. I'll go out first and coax her into the kitchen, then you can sneak back!"

"Huh?" Qin Huairu's exclamation of surprise exhausted all her energy, and she slumped blankly in the bathtub.

What does that mean...? Why is Lin Weidong so worried too? Does that mean he's also afraid their affair will be exposed?

Is he incapable of making decisions at home?

What should I do then?

Qin Huairu's mood quickly turned cold, and Lin Weidong, seeing this, became even more amused, his face showing a mixture of panic and relief, followed by composure.

"It's alright, Huairu, don't be afraid. Your sister Xueru is ahead and hasn't come back yet, so everything will be fine, don't worry."

"What will we do then?" Qin Huairu asked, her voice already trembling with tears.

"From now on... from now on we'll do it secretly! Don't worry, I won't let anything happen to you!"

"Waaah~"

Qin Huairu finally couldn't hold back and covered her face, sobbing softly.

This was completely different from what she had imagined!

"Alright, alright, stop crying. Once I get rid of everyone, you can sneak back. I'll see if I can find you tonight. Be good, we have a long life ahead of us!"

In contrast to the heartbroken Qin Huairu, Lin Weidong, possessed by a beast, was still trying to boost his prize pool for the evening's experience. After offering some simple, lewd words of comfort, he put on his clothes and went out.

"Hey? Master, have you seen Huairu? Where did that girl run off to?"

"I haven't seen her! Maybe Xue Ru called her to do something?"

"Oh! By the way, what would you like to eat tonight, boss? I'll go buy the groceries."

"I'm going to a banquet tonight, you guys eat by yourselves, bring plenty of meat, you've worked hard these past two days, so make sure you nourish yourselves."

"Okay!"

After Erhu's wife finished speaking with Lin Weidong in the yard, she left.

Lin Weidong ran back to the room, rummaged through the closet, and handed clean clothes to Qin Huairu.

"Huai Ru, let me teach you a trick. If your sister Xue Ru asks about it later, just say you accidentally got your cheongsam wet while washing clothes. As long as you act normally, we won't find out. Then you get dressed and go back to your room. I'll go out and hide for a bit. Remember to leave the door open for me tonight."

Qin Huai nodded mechanically as he put on his clothes, already filled with regret.

Leaving a door open... what a load of rubbish! We're doomed if we get caught!

If she had known this would be the outcome, she shouldn't have rushed over. How is she going to get along with Sister Xue Ru now?

How angry and disappointed she would be if she found out that she had seduced Lin Weidong?

Qin Huairu's mind was completely occupied with whether or not to run away.

But she really couldn't bear to leave the Lin family's life.

Meals already include meat at every meal, and Lin Weidong just told me to buy more. In the past, this was something I wouldn't have dared to dream of.

Qin Huairu hesitated again.

Although Lin Weidong played the role of a scumbag, this action was entirely impromptu. He was also afraid that being too irresponsible would scare Qin Huairu into something bad, so he left a lifelike surveillance camera in her room to keep an eye on her at all times before leaving.

He slipped back to the steel rolling mill office and, at the opportune moment when it was time to leave work, stood at the main gate to continue his work from the previous day.

Some workers were in such a hurry to get home yesterday that they didn't even notice, but most of them had lost interest and just smiled at Lin Weidong before leaving.

Lin Weidong didn't mind. He couldn't do this kind of attention-seeking thing every day. The workers' current behavior was normal.

Of course, some people didn't leave. Liu Haizhong and his group were chatting enthusiastically about the dinner party that evening. They came out of the workshop and waited for Lin Weidong to go back and have dinner together.

They ran into Qiangzi and Cai Quanwu. Jia Dongxu, young and impetuous, couldn't keep his temper in check and even yelled at them to wait.

Seeing the group in the courtyard united in their hatred of the enemy, Cai Quanwu became wary and prepared to go back and report to Master Niu.

After completing his daily tasks, Lin Weidong walked towards the courtyard house with Liu Haizhong and his group.

He was multitasking, chatting with them casually on the surface, but his mind was mostly focused on the virtual surveillance cameras in the space, keeping an eye on Qin Huairu's condition.

In the backyard of the silk shop, Qin Huairu was so upset that she couldn't sit still in her room and washed Chen Xueru's cheongsam again.

When Chen Xueru returned from the front, she also gave an explanation based on the excuse Lin Weidong had given her.
