He Jing sat on the sofa, enjoying He Sui's care. It was a wonderful feeling.

He Sui anxiously rummaged through the boxes and cabinets, replying with a tight voice, "I'm looking, I'm looking!"

"Here, let me apply it for you."

He Jing smiled bashfully, giving He Sui access to her arm. With her head tilted and a curl to her cherry-colored lips, she began, "Fourth Brother, why haven't I seen this gentle side to you before?"
