The last plant pet took me to be the landlord

179 It's Late at Night

The body temperature under my palms gradually increased, as if it was an illusion.

Lu Beier quietly raised her head and glanced at Jiang Bai, and all she could see was his enthusiastic gaze that he did not avoid.

She didn't think she was a thin-skinned person. The two of them were so close to each other, the warmth in his eyes and the body temperature under his palms seemed to be transmitted to her face instantly.

My cheeks gradually became hot and my heart was beating like a drum.

"You... should be almost there." Lu Bei'er found an excuse to withdraw her hand, her fingertips inadvertently clenching her palm, which was still burning hot.

He leaned back in his chair again, his eyes drifting to the ceiling above his head, where an incandescent lamp was hanging, glaringly bright.

With her forearm covering her eyes, Lu Beier muttered, “This incandescent light is too bright!”

Jiang Bai's eyes were reflected in the soft yellow light of the incandescent lamp. He just looked at her with a smile on his lips.

He liked to see her emotions and heartbeats fluctuate because of him, disrupting her usual calmness.

Even without skin contact, their gazes were still hot. Just because Lu Bei'er didn't look at him didn't mean she couldn't feel it.

"Should we... go to bed early? It's getting colder at night!" She thought it would be better to go to bed early. She didn't even want to wear a sweater when she was with Jiang Bai.

"Well! The temperature will definitely continue to drop tonight. Go take a shower first, and I'll install the heater in your room!" Jiang Bai said in a normal tone. He stood up, glanced at the dark night outside the window, and went straight up to the second floor.

Taking a bath is more casual than eating. Lu Beier felt that if it were her, she probably couldn't just say to him casually: "Go take a bath first."

The temperature is minus 30 degrees Celsius. In the south, it is better not to use the water heater in the bathroom. The pipes outside must have frozen at this moment.

The next second, he went directly into the bathroom in the space cabin.

The bathroom in the space was decorated in an avant-garde and comfortable style. If she wasn't afraid that Jiang Bai would worry outside, she would have wanted to take a soak in the large, clean bathtub.

I washed myself thoroughly from head to toe with hot water, feeling refreshed and comfortable. I changed into coral fleece pajamas and went upstairs.

In Lu Beier's bedroom, Jiang Bai had installed a high-power indoor heater. Once it was turned on, the whole room was almost as warm as spring.

At this moment, he was standing on a chair changing the curtains. Seeing her come in with her hair loose, he explained, "The windows in your room are made of aluminum alloy, and the gaps are relatively large. I'll change them for you with thick curtains!"

The thick curtains not only block the wind but also keep in warmth. The main reason is that the aluminum alloy windows are a bit old, and they make quite a noise when the wind blows. In addition to replacing the curtains, he also sealed all the gaps in the windows with sealing strips.

The curtains were changed, but the color was still her favorite sky blue.

Jiang Bai put the chair back to its original place and frowned at Lu Beier's hair, "Did you blow-dry your hair?" As he said that, he naturally started to stroke it.

It's okay, about 70% to 80% dry. It will be basically dry in this bedroom in a few minutes.

"It's dry! I don't even need a hair dryer to wash my hair now! The water power can drain out all the moisture in an instant. This is a new skill I developed!"

Of course, girls need to have essential skills to take care of their hair - avoid frizz and keep some moisture.

This is very necessary.

After saying that, she also brushed the long hair behind her ear.

Well, that’s still his favorite look, and he also chose the scent of the shampoo for her.

Jiang Bai looked at her joyful and proud face with shining black eyes, and couldn't help but laugh.

The hand that was stroking her hair touched her cheek without her noticing.

Lu Beier's face began to heat up again, and she did not avoid his burning gaze. When their eyes met, the distance between them gradually closed.

Lu Beier, who had just finished taking a shower, had moist black pupils that were rosy in color. She had smooth and flawless skin, and was wearing soft and glutinous pink velvet pajamas. Her whole body exuded his most familiar and favorite scent.

He couldn't help but lower his head and move closer.

As their breaths intertwined, his gaze moved from her bright eyes to her rosy lips. After applying lipstick on her skin, the areas where she had applied lipstick had a clean and fresh luster.

Just when he was about to taste it, Lu Beier suddenly took a step back swiftly and glared at him, "You haven't taken a shower yet!"

He was almost laughing out of anger. Was this heartless girl looking down on him?

Forget it, let’s not make a fuss about it. According to his own habits, he should wash the dishes after cooking.

However, he didn't want to let her go just like that, so he took a step forward with his long legs, got closer to her, and said in a dark voice, "Then it'll be fine after we wash?!"

Lu Beier: “…”

What does it mean to wash it and it's done? What is done? How can it be done?

Isn't this a bit - too fast, we've only been meeting for a few days and already... we can do that?!

Seeing that Lu Bei'er was speechless and didn't know how to respond, Jiang Bai curled the corners of his mouth slightly and then said something shocking.

"Go wait in bed, I'm going to take a shower first!"

After saying this, without waiting for any response from her, he disappeared in front of her.

Wait?

What are you waiting for? I haven’t promised anything!

Jiang Bai entered his own space, and couldn't help feeling secretly delighted. He had already mastered the skill of seizing the opportunity.

Lu Bei'er lay on her bed, feeling a little annoyed at herself for her poor words just now, and also a little annoyed at Jiang Bai for taking advantage of the opportunity and distorting her meaning.

Angrily, she looked at the empty half space next to her. She rolled her eyes, took out another single quilt and pillow from the space, placed them on the bed, then turned sideways, covered herself with the quilt, closed her eyes and went to sleep.

It was almost eleven o'clock in the evening. Even through the thick curtains and glass, the rustling sound of falling snow on the balcony mixed with the whistling north wind was still clearly audible.

After walking in the mountains all day, the physical fatigue was eliminated by her supernatural powers, but the mental fatigue, coupled with the fact that she had used her mental powers for the whole day, made her fall into a deep sleep after closing her eyes and listening to the noises outside the window, without realizing it.

When Jiang Bai returned to Lu Beier's bedroom, she was breathing steadily and sleeping soundly.

He looked at the pillow and quilt prepared for him on the bed and chuckled silently.

He walked around the head of the bed to the other side of her body, squatted down, and looked at her rosy little face as she slept, and a strand of long hair that was blown up by her breathing.

He raised his hand to gently push aside the messy hair, leaned over, moved closer, and kissed her cheek lightly with his thin lips. He stayed there for about two seconds, feeling her breath, and then pulled back with difficulty.

I've walked so much today, so I'll let you go for now.

Although he thought so in his heart, after he lay down on the bed, he still put the sheets and quilt into his own space, then he quietly lifted the quilt covering Lu Bei'er and crawled in.

The hot palms wrapped around her slender waist and embraced her.

Before covering himself and Lu Bei'er with a blanket, he took out the remote control of the heater and lowered the indoor temperature by several degrees.

In a daze, Lu Bei'er only felt a heat source approaching from behind. She turned around and used her hands and feet to cling to Jiang Bai, the heat source with the right temperature, as if she was holding a human doll.

In the darkness, Jiang Bai closed his eyes and held her in his arms contentedly, with the corners of his mouth rising unconsciously.

Outside the bedroom, the forgotten Luna wanted to raise her front paws to open her owner's door. She didn't want to freeze to death in the corridor on such a cold night.

The cat stood up and was about to touch the door handle, but he saw a small electric current flash on it with his sharp eyes.

This damn poop scooper, it must have been him! Did he forget that his owner was the one who found it?

Sure enough, male ones are not good people!

Tomorrow, I must tell the owner that this poop shoveler is going to freeze himself to death!
