Bab 173: Chapter 173: Will Be Mine Sooner or Later_1

Fearing Chi Zaozao would catch a cold and fall ill, Ye Que didn't scold her any further. He caught her hand and hurried her back to their room, where he ran hot water in the bathroom and told her to soak in a hot bath.

"Call me when you're done."

He personally tested the water temperature for her and, feeling it was about right, was prepared to leave the bathroom.

Chi Zaozao clung to his hand, not letting him go.

Ye Que turned to look at her.

The shy girl smiled timidly, cheeks flushed with embarrassment. Looking down, she said hesitantly, "Well...we're going to get married soon, and we'll be husband and wife, so actually, actually, we can take a bath together."

After she finished speaking, fearing his refusal, she dared not look into his eyes and waited for his response with her head bowed.

To her surprise, Ye Que watched her silently for a moment and then sighed, "Chi Zaozao."

"Hmm?" She quickly looked up at him.
