Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Ming Liuyi felt Yao Zizhou’s anger, so she whispered a “good night” to him and quickly ran back to her room. She did some pre-sleep yoga on the bed. Without Yao Zizhou by her side, she could only use a stuffed toy as a substitute. However, after adjusting it a few times, she still felt uncomfortable, so she did a few yoga poses herself and lay down.
Lying on the bed, Ming Liuyi looked at her favorite doll. She even thought that she would be able to sleep well tonight. But after closing her eyes, she kept rolling around until midnight and still could not find sleep. Ming Liuyi thought her body was just not used to this other bed, and that leaving Yao Zizhou’s room was why she could not fall asleep. If she did not sleep, she would have dark circles tomorrow.
But no matter what she did, she could not fall asleep. Finally, she gritted her teeth, picked up the pillow and ran to the master bedroom. Yao Zizhou must have fallen asleep at this time. Ming Liuyi quietly opened the door and carefully walked to the bed. Yao Zizhou did not have any reaction, and Ming Liuyi let out a sigh of relief.
According to the usual procedure, before going to bed, Ming Liuyi would sniff Yao Zizhou’s face to make sure that Zhao Qiang had applied the skin care products on his face. She looked at his sleeping posture. Although he was already awake, his sleeping posture did not seem any different from before. He was still lying flat on his back, his hands naturally placed on both sides.
Ming Liuyi looked at his hands. Silently, she placed her forehead on Yao Zizhou’s arm and did another round of pre-sleep yoga. Yao Zizhou was just lying down and doing nothing, but Ming Liuyi felt that this kind of yoga was more effective. After doing the yoga, Ming Liuyi felt a little embarrassed. Thinking that she had only massaged Yao Zizhou through his pants today, she decided to do it again.
Yao Zizhou was not asleep at all. He just wanted to see what Ming Liuyi was up to, coming back so late at night. Ming Liuyi had moved all her things out by herself during the day. Yao Zizhou felt Ming Liuyi sniff his face like a puppy, then she did some yoga with his arm as her pillow.
Then she moved to the end of the bed, trying to pull up his pants. Yao Zizhou’s body instantly stiffened, and he said in a cold voice,”Ming Liuyi, what are you doing?”
Ming Liuyi had thought Yao Zizhou was already asleep, but he was actually awake. Suddenly speaking at this time made Ming Liuyi jump in shock, not knowing how to answer Yao Zizhou. ‘Why didn’t he say anything?’

It had come to this, and Ming Liuyi could not just run away, so she stuttered,”U-um, I, I wanted t-to help you m-massage your legs again.”
Ming Liuyi also knew that Yao Zizhou cared about the scar on his legs. Although she had seen them countless times before, Yao Zizhou was in a vegetative state at that time and could not feel it at all. With him being awake, Yao Zizhou naturally would not let Ming Liuyi do it, but the spiritual spring water was already in her hand, so it would be a waste if she did not use it.
Ming Liuyi continued,”It’s nighttime, and it’s dark. I can’t see anything at all. Why don’t I help you massage your legs?”
Yao Zizhou knew that Ming Liuyi had good intentions, but he still did not want her to continue massaging him. Although he could not see it, he could still feel with his hands, which made him very uncomfortable. The scars had already become his inner demons that would only go away once the scars fade as well.
Yao Zizhou declined without a second thought, “No need. Go to sleep now. If you don’t, then get out.”
Ming Liuyi looked at the spring water in her hand and her heart ached. If she did not use it, it would be a waste. Besides, if she used the spiritual spring water to massage Yao Zizhou’s legs, they might heal faster.
‘They were just scars, why did he have to be so sensitive? Perhaps with more spiritual water, the scars could heal, which is a good thing,’
Ming Liuyi continued gently,”What are you afraid of? I can’t take advantage of you. It’s just a quick massage, it won’t take long. Just bear with it for a while, okay?”
Yao Zizhou firmly opposed. Ming Liuyi was worried that the spiritual spring water would evaporate soon, but Yao Zizhou was being so cold, so she became anxious and sad, and a sense of grievance welled up in her heart. It was clearly for Yao Zizhou’s sake, so why did he not appreciate it? Did he have to waste the spiritual water?
Ming Liuyi’s voice betrayed her sorrow,”Yao Zizhou, why do you have to be like this? It’s only for a while, alright?”
