Fu Yanchen's eyes were filled with a barely perceptible pleading, and he whispered, "Well, Xiaoxiao, can I go in and take a shower? I promise to be extremely careful and not let the unhealed wound get wet at all."

Upon hearing this, Xu Xiaoxiao frowned, and her bright eyes flashed with unquestionable determination.

"What? Taking a bath? No!" Her voice was filled with a certain toughness that could not be refuted. "No matter how careful you are, things are unpredictable. What if, what if the water drops still touch your wound, the consequences will be disastrous. Be patient for a few more days until the wound is completely healed. Then, I will let you take a bath to your heart's content."

Hearing this, a trace of helplessness and pain flashed across his face, and his voice was filled with a bit of urgency and unwillingness: "No, I really can't stand it anymore. For a whole week, I felt like I was imprisoned in my own filth. This feeling of physical and mental exhaustion is really beyond words."

However, Xu Xiaoxiao's attitude was equally firm and did not waver in the slightest.

"No way!"

There was unquestionable determination in her tone. "If your wound gets infected due to your stubbornness, how can I bear the responsibility? In my territory, everything is arranged by me. This is my principle and my bottom line. Otherwise, you can leave. It has nothing to do with me if you die outside."

The atmosphere between the two of them suddenly became tense, and they stared at each other, as if two invisible forces were colliding and intertwining in the air, and a silent contest was quietly unfolding.

In this small space, time seemed to stand still, leaving only the firm gazes between each other and the indescribable complex emotions slowly spreading in the air.

When talking about leaving, Fu Yanchen's tone softened involuntarily. He knew very well that Xu Xiaoxiao was no longer the woman who easily compromised in the past.

Once she is serious, she will shut him out without hesitation.

This realization forced him to give up his previous insistence and look for another way to meet his needs.

"Well...ok, I won't wash it."

He compromised in a helpless manner, but then changed the subject, "But, Xiaoxiao, please help me wipe my back. It's really inconvenient there."

Xu Xiaoxiao couldn't help but curl up her lips when she heard this, and secretly complained in her heart: This guy, it turns out he was waiting for me here. But she also understood that Fu Yanchen's words were not entirely joking, and his back was indeed inconvenient to take care of himself.

She originally wanted to refuse, but when she saw Fu Yanchen's pitiful eyes and thought that he was injured because of her, she felt embarrassed to refuse.

Besides, their relationship has long surpassed those worldly boundaries. They even have a child. Why bother about being shy or not?

So she took the towel and yelled in a serious tone, "Take off your clothes."

This roar was both an order to him and contained a hint of imperceptible doting.

Upon hearing this, Fu Yanchen immediately raised a smug smile, as if he had won a silent battle.

He turned around and skillfully unbuttoned his shirt. Every time he unbuttoned a button, it was like unbuttoning a dusty memory, revealing their past bit by bit before his eyes.

Xu Xiaoxiao looked at his broad figure, his strong back after taking off his clothes, and swallowed. She gently wiped his skin with a towel, and every movement was full of tenderness and care.

At this moment, the quarrels and confrontations between them seemed to have disappeared, as if only the deep dependence and attachment to each other remained.

Under the soft touch of the towel, Fu Yanchen seemed to feel unprecedented comfort and peace.

He closed his eyes and took a deep breath, as if he wanted to engrave this warmth and love in his heart forever.

Afterwards, Xu Xiaoxiao carefully reapplied medicine to Fu Yanchen's wound, her movements gentle and careful, as if she was treating a precious work of art.

While applying the medicine, she reminded him: "You have to be careful during this period. Don't let the wound get wet. Otherwise, I will be irresponsible."

After applying the medicine, she took out Peppa Pig's pajamas from the closet and threw them in front of Fu Yanchen, with a playful smile on her face: "Put this on. Your suits are very expensive and can't be washed in a washing machine. I'm very tired every day, but I don't have time to wash your clothes by hand."

The clothes Xu Xiaoxiao wears all cost several hundred yuan each, and she just throws them into the washing machine and stirs them.

But Fu Yanchen's suits were different. They cost tens of thousands of dollars, so she didn't dare to mess around with them.

In her opinion, these expensive suits were like a symbol of his status and needed to be cared for with extra care.

Fu Yanchen looked at the pajamas in front of him, with a look of helplessness and embarrassment on his face.

He tried to refuse: "If it's broken, just throw it away. This pajamas...really doesn't suit me. Yuxuan...can still wear it."

However, Xu Xiaoxiao didn't buy his trick. She put her hands on her hips and said angrily, "You can wear it or not, why are you being so pretentious! I don't have any men's pajamas here, you can either wear this or sleep naked!"

Upon hearing this, Fu Yanchen shook his head helplessly.

He knew Xu Xiaoxiao's temper very well. Once she made a decision, it would be difficult to change it.

So he had no choice but to compromise, picked up the Peppa Pig pajamas, and slowly put them on.

Although the pattern of the pajamas is a bit childish, it looks different when worn by Fu Yanchen.

He looked at himself in the mirror and couldn't help but smile bitterly. But then he thought, what does it matter? As long as he can be with Xu Xiaoxiao, it doesn't matter what kind of pajamas he wears.

Xu Xiaoxiao looked at the Peppa Pig pajamas on Fu Yanchen, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise slightly, with a sly smile flashing in her eyes.

She suppressed her smile, turned around and left the room, but she was muttering to herself: This guy looks really cute in this pajamas.

Fu Yanchen stood in front of the mirror, looking at the weird pajamas on himself, feeling an inexplicable joy in his heart.

He understood that when Xu Xiaoxiao said there were no men's pajamas here, she was actually telling him that she had not had a boyfriend in the past four years.

This discovery made him feel relieved, and at the same time it also strengthened his inner thoughts - Xu Xiaoxiao still had him in her heart.

Thinking of this, Fu Yanchen's eyes became firm and full of fighting spirit.

He secretly told himself that he must work hard to win Xu Xiaoxiao back. However, he was a little dissatisfied with Nan Yifeng's idea, which forced him to stay in his room every day without taking a shower, which was a torture for him.

What made him even more unbearable was that Xu Xiaoxiao would come to provoke him from time to time.

Whenever this happened, he could only swallow his anger and dare not express the slightest dissatisfaction.

He knew that if he showed any dissatisfaction, Xu Xiaoxiao would probably dislike him even more and would immediately drive him away.

So he can't give up now.

He believed that as long as he had enough patience and sincerity, he would be able to win Xu Xiaoxiao's heart.

He needs to work harder to express himself and use his actions to prove his change and determination.

Fu Yanchen discovered some major changes in Xu Xiaoxiao.

She has become more independent, confident, and knows how to take care of herself.

These changes made him feel both gratified and a little lost. Xu Xiaoxiao would be able to live better without him in the future. The little girl who used to chase after him has grown up.

But he also knew that these were all part of Xu Xiaoxiao's growth, and he needed to accept and adapt to them.

Under Xu Xiaoxiao's "stimulation", Fu Yanchen constantly adjusted his mentality and behavior.

He believed that as long as he didn't give up, he would be able to win Xu Xiaoxiao's heart back one day.

And this persistence and hard work will become one of the most precious memories of his love.

Xu Xiaoxiao turned and walked into the bedroom and gently closed the door.

She turned on her computer and began to concentrate on her work. Time passed by minute by minute, and before she knew it, it was already one or two o'clock in the morning.

The long period of concentration made her feel hungry, and her stomach made rumbling sounds from time to time.

She thought to herself, "Fu Yanchen must have fallen asleep by now, right?"

So she lightly tiptoed out of the bedroom like a cat, for fear of making any noise and waking up the man.

When she walked cautiously past Fu Yanchen's door, she suddenly heard a deep and attractive voice coming from the room - it turned out that he was talking on the phone about business!

"He's still dealing with company matters so late at night. It seems he's quite busy..."

Xu Xiaoxiao sighed silently in her heart while preparing to quicken her pace and leave here quickly to avoid being discovered.

However, at this moment, the noise in the house suddenly became louder.

Xu Xiaoxiao stood at the door, frowning, and was even more confused: "Did he have a quarrel with someone?"

She whispered to herself, trying to get more information through the crack in the door, but the soundproofing was too good. She could only vaguely hear Fu Yanchen's voice but couldn't make out the specific content.

Just as she was about to give up and turn away, Fu Yanchen's next words were like a bolt from the blue, shocking her.
