She saw her cousin walking over step by step with his cane. After walking for about a while, the person who had been very relaxed just now was a little on the verge of collapse. Even his forehead was covered in sweat.
Yu Youyao quickly went over and helped her cousin into the wheelchair. “Sit down and rest.”
Then, she took out a handkerchief from her sleeve and wiped her cousin’s sweat. The handkerchief reached his nose. Suddenly, she realized that it was very inappropriate for her to do this, so she retracted her hand awkwardly.
Zhou Linghuai’s smile deepened. He held her hand and pulled the handkerchief in her hand out bit by bit. “There’s no need to trouble Cousin. I’ll do it myself.”
If Uncle Sun were here, he would definitely roll his eyes again and complain in his heart, ‘She’s almost done wiping my sweat. Isn’t it a little too late to say that you’ll do it yourself?’
However, at this moment, Yu Youyao’s focus was not on this. Seeing that her cousin was wiping her sweat with her handkerchief, she opened her mouth, wanting to remind him that it was her handkerchief.
Then, she recalled how she had wiped her cousin’s sweat just now. Just as these words were about to come out of her mouth, she swallowed them.
There was a pink and white slanted apricot embroidery on the white silk handkerchief. When the handkerchief landed on his nose, the faint fragrance of a girl lingered in his nose, tempting him.
He couldn’t help but smell it with all his might, but he couldn’t get past the incense. The more he put in effort, the more he was troubled by it.
The atmosphere was a little strange.
Zhou Linghuai wiped his sweat and put the handkerchief into his sleeve. He chuckled. “I’ve dirtied Cousin’s handkerchief. I’ll give you another one another day.”
However, he did not say that she wanted to return the handkerchief.
Yu Youyao was about to say that it was just a handkerchief. If it was dirty, so be it. She would just wash it later.
At this moment, Chang An came over. “Young Master, the water for the bath is ready.”
Young Miss had previously instructed that when the weather was hot, Young Master had to take a bath after practicing walking. He also had to put medicinal dew in the bathtub to relieve his fatigue, in case Young Master couldn’t adjust his body in time after being tired. Otherwise, his legs would hurt him again before they recovered.
He had always followed Young Miss’s instructions strictly.
Zhou Linghuai nodded and said to Yu Youyao, “I’ll be back soon.”
Yu Youyao had originally wanted to return to the Jade Courtyard, but when she heard her cousin’s words, she could only nod. “Then I’ll wait for you.” Chang An pushed Zhou Linghuai into the house.
Zhou Linghuai took out the handkerchief from his sleeve again. The faint fragrance reminded him that his little girl had already become a big girl. She was a delicate and elegant beauty!
Not only was he coveting her, but even Song Mingzhao was spying on her all the time. He even wanted to achieve his goal by currying favor with Old Madam
Song Mingzhao was not the first, let alone the last.
Zhou Linghuai rubbed the handkerchief in his palm and smiled. “If you seek it, you will get it.”
The faint fragrance on the handkerchief penetrated the refreshing lotus fragrance of the spiritual dewdrop, but it was tainted. Like a flower bud, it had the fragrance of a girl. Strands of sweetness were bewitching.
He suddenly closed his eyes. When he opened them again, the deep ambition in them was burning like magma.
As Yu Youyao flipped through a few pages of a book, Zhou Linghuai returned.
Yu Youyao stood up in shock. “Why didn’t you even wipe your hair? Your clothes are wet. What if you catch a cold?” As she spoke, she quickly instructed Chang An, “What are you waiting for? Hurry up and get a towel. How exactly did you take care of your young master?”
Previously, in the residence, Chang An had reminded Young Master, but was Young Master someone who could listen to him?
No!
Chang An felt aggrieved and ran away.
“Although his hair will dry quickly in this weather, Cousin is sick and weak. You have to be more careful.” Yu Youyao hurriedly went forward and circled behind him. She tied up her cousin’s long hair and dried the water bit by bit.
Weak body? Such a deep-rooted impression was really inexplicable. Zhou Linghuai’s expression paused for a moment. “It’s not good to make Cousin wait too long.”
Yu Youyao glared at him, forgetting that she was standing behind her cousin.
He couldn’t see her even if she glared at him. “I said I wanted to wait for
Cousin. No matter how long it takes, I’m willing to wait.”
Zhou Linghuai’s grip on the armrest of the wheelchair immediately tightened. He suddenly wanted to ask, “What if it’s for a lifetime?”
However, just as the words were about to come out of his mouth, he smiled in disbelief. How could he bear to make the girl he liked wait for such a long time?
How could he let the girl he liked wait for him for the rest of her life?
At this moment, Chang An brought a large towel over and was about to help Young Master twist his hair dry.
Yu Youyao had already reached out her hand. Chang An quickly handed the large towel to her. When he looked down, he could see a faint smile on his young master’s lips.
Chang An understood that Young Master was waiting here.
Only Yu Youyao and Zhou Linghuai were left in the corridor.
Yu Youyao held the large towel and helped her cousin dry his hair. Her cousin’s hair was black and glossy. It was not as soft as a woman’s, but very smooth in her hand.
Yu Youyao couldn’t help but praise, “Cousin, your hair quality is really good!”
Zhou Linghuai’s expression paused again. “I used the nourishing hair gel that you had previously made after boiling cypress leaves, no harmful fruits, soap, angelica, knotweed, and tea trees.”
The little girl was worried that he wouldn’t grow tall in a wheelchair.
After a while, she was worried that he would scheme too much all day and overuse his brain, causing him to lose his hair in his prime, or making his hair turn white at a young age. So, she specially modified a health-nourishing hair lotion.
Not only could it nourish his black hair, but it also had the effect of improving blood flow and strengthening his mind.
She had really put in a lot of effort.
At first, Zhou Linghuai had rejected the health nourishing hair liquid. At the thought that the health nourishing hair liquid was made to prevent him from going bald, he couldn’t help but shudder.
But!
Zhou Linghuai’s body was still very honest. So be it. As long as she was happy, it was fine. He couldn’t let her down!
Later on, it really smelled good.
Yu Youyao lowered her head and smelled the refreshing fragrance of soap and medicinal herbs in her cousin’s hair. “I thought you didn’t like it.”
A few days ago, when she gave it to her cousin, he still had a worried expression.
Zhou Linghuai’s expression was a little suffocating. Then, he said, “Cousin, the things you make are always more meticulous than others. I’m also used to using things you made yourself, so I naturally have to use them.”
The little girl twisted his hair very gently. From time to time, she would pinch his hair and gently pull his scalp. Zhou Linghuai felt his head tighten and loosen. Even the top of his head felt numb.
Her movements were very skilled. Without asking, she knew that she must have often helped Old Madam Yu dry her hair.
Yu Youyao was also meticulous. She treated the people she approved of without any barriers and often helped the people around her with what she could. It wasn’t unreasonable for Old Madam Yu to dote on her.
Just like that, he let down his guard against her bit by bit and opened his heart to her. Then, he took her into his heart bit by bit, allowing her to take root in his heart..
