Chapter 861: Chapter 861: I Didn’t Know I Was This Capable!
Hearing this, Kang Li nodded, “Ruirui and the others are all asleep, and mother has also gone to bed.”
Carrying a bamboo stool and placing it near the heater, Kang Li asked, “Who goes first?”
“Ladies first, of course.”
Luo Yanqing’s phoenix eyes, dark as ink, held a smile as he placed the foot basin on the ground, picked up the kettle from the heater, and began mixing hot water into the basin, testing the temperature with the other hand. Once it felt right, he said, “I’ll go get you slippers and a foot towel.”
Returning the kettle to the heater stone, without waiting for Kang Li to speak, Luo Yanqing left. Soon, he emerged from the room with two pairs of knitted slippers in hand. Kang Li had learned to knit using a book provided by Dwen Dwen. One pair was sky blue, the other light gray, both with playful panda eating bamboo patterns.
Of course, everyone in the house had a pair of these slippers, differing only in the main color.
“I’m going to rinse my mouth.”
Placing the slippers beside the foot basin and setting the foot towel in place, Luo Yanqing left the living room.
Kang Li sat on the bamboo stool, her feet soaking in the comfortably warm water, feeling utterly relaxed and comfortable.
After about two or three minutes, Luo Yanqing returned: “I’ve squeezed the toothpaste for you, and there’s water in the cup, mixed with some hot water, on the ledge by the sink.”
“Professor Luo, you’re so considerate, thank you!”
Drying the water off her feet, Kang Li put on her knitted slippers and was about to take the foot bath water out when Luo Yanqing stopped her: “I’ll use it before dumping it.”
Kang Li was taken aback, then stood up straight: “But I’ve already used this water.”
“It’s not like we haven’t shared foot bath water before.”
Luo Yanqing casually replied, hearing Kang Li say, “What about your cleanliness?” Luo Yanqing’s lips curled into a smile: “You’ve cured it.”
Feigning surprise with wide eyes, Kang Li exaggeratedly expressed, “I didn’t know I was so capable!”
Luo Yanqing chuckled, “It’s alright if you don’t know, as long as I do.”
“You really have a way with words.”
Kang Li clicked her tongue and turned to leave.
Outside, the moonlight was bright, so there was no worry of bumping into anything even if the room wasn’t lit.
“Are you sleepy?”
The couple lay face to face on the bed, Luo Yanqing’s deep, pleasant voice flowed slowly, his gaze fixed intently on Kang Li’s delicate eyebrows.
“I was quite sleepy walking back, but strangely, after soaking my feet and brushing my teeth, I’m more awake now.”
At this moment, Kang Li indeed wasn’t feeling sleepy, and even felt her mind was active, so much so that even if she closed her eyes, she probably wouldn’t fall asleep immediately.
“I have a way to help you fall asleep, want to try it?”
Luo Yanqing’s voice was a little husky.
“…”
Kang Li raised an eyebrow: “You’re not trying to trick me, are you?”
“Don’t worry, I won’t trick you.”
As he spoke, Luo Yanqing’s kiss fell on Kang Li’s lips, so sudden that it left Kang Li momentarily stunned: “…”
As Kang Li regained her senses, a large hand covered her eyes: “Be good, close your eyes.”
Kang Li’s beautiful fox eyes widened: “I won’t… mm…” She was kissed again.
…
The next day.
The sky had yet to brighten.
After washing up, Luo Yanqing returned to the room, bent down, and gently kissed Kang Li’s forehead, saying, “Sleep a little longer, I’ll take Luo Mingrui and the others to school.”
“…Mm.”
Without opening her eyes, Kang Li mumbled a response, waving her hand as if swatting away a mosquito: “Stay away from me… don’t disturb my sleep…”
“Alright, I won’t disturb you, sleep well!”
