Chapter 270: Secret Stash
After venting her anger, ThornyRose once again covered herself with a towel. Recalled how she was pretty much naked earlier, her face once again flushed with embarrassment and resentment. Damn lowlife! She watched as Ye Cang popped out of the water and then once again leaned on the rock and looked at her. “Hello…”
“……” ThornyRose almost exploded again. Does this guy not feel shame!? She said in a low voice. “Hurry and get out…”
“I haven’t finished washing…” Ye Cang covered his lower half with a towel, and then got up. The moonlight reflected off the ring on his necklace, making ThornyRose somewhat curious. The string that it was hanging on was clearly already very old. She hadn’t noticed it earlier. She watched as he grabbed a stool, shampoo, conditioner, bodywash, and an eye shield cap, then handed them to her. He said very calmly, as if it was expected, “Wash my back… Get to it…”
ThornyRose froze once again. Her chest began to rise and fall as she pointed at him speechless.
“The faster you help me wash my back, the earlier I’ll leave…” Ye Cang said, worrying about her IQ. She clearly wanted him to quickly leave, yet she was still taking her time. She even looked unwilling. He could only sigh.
ThornyRose grabbed the things from him, intending to scrape the skin off his back. Ye Cang reminded her, “If it hurts, I’m not leaving…”
Aaaah!!! Bastard! She got up and helped him wash his back. His back was thin, and his ribs could faintly be seen. When she finished, she unhappily returned to the bath and watched as Ye Cang began washing his hair. Finally, he went somewhere out of sight and rinsed off, then changed into his nightgown. He was still wiping his hair dry as he walked out. He suddenly thought of something, “Right, I forgot to tell you. Earlier when you were washing my back, I saw a big bird take a huge dump from the skylight into the water.”
“……” ThornyRose chest tightened. She immediately jumped out of the water. I knew there was something weird about the water. That bastard! It was definitely on purpose! She was about to scold him but he was already gone. She was feeling rather sullen after having suffered so many losses. Her whole body trembled with rage as she screamed to herself: Aaah!! I need to replace the water and have a nice bath! That bastard!
Next day, early morning.
Ye Cang noticed the strange looks Mr Qin was giving him, a somewhat grateful look but also with a bit of grief and a touch of hope. There was even some expectation mixed in as if he was saying ‘good kid…’. ThornyRose saw that her mother was staring at her. Her mother shook her head and said, “Who would have thought you were so wild…”
“……” Thorny didn’t understand.
As for Ye Cang, he blinked at Mr Qin and inquired, “Mr Qin, is there something you want ask…?”
“How sure are you?” Mr Qin asked with a whisper.
Ye Cang raise his brows. Sure about what? What does he mean? I don’t get it, is it some kind of secret code? “Mr Qin, what do you mean?”
Mr Qin thought for a bit and then translated it into some safer words. “The little tadpole finding its mother…”
ThornyRose happened to hear, and spat out the water in her mouth. Her face turned bright red. She knew her parents had noticed the commotion last night and thought they were doing that. Little tadpole finding its mother!? Have you gone made from wanting grandchildren!? She didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
Ye Cang suddenly realised something. He stroked his chin and nodded as if he understood. “So that’s what you mean. I’m not very sure…”
