President's Substitute Wife novel Chapter 277

I didn’t think of anything and quickly grabbed the towel from him and put it in front of me.

“Turn around and I’ll have a look at your wound.” Ming seemed to treat me as a patient instead of a woman.

Then he forced me to turn around.

“No, I’m fine.” I blushed. “Go out first. I’ll have my hair washed and go out.”

I wasn’t in the mood to take a bath.

“No.” Ming looked serious and worried, “either I wash your hair for you, or you show me the wound now.”

In the small bathroom, the white mist just rising from the hot water has almost disappeared. The more I thought about it, the more shy I was, but Ming was blocking up and didn’t plan to leave.

My face was getting redder and redder so Ming seemed to be aware of my mind. He quickly took a big bath towel and put it on me and said, “I’ll get a chair. You sit down. I’ll wash the bubbles out of your hair and you come out with me.”

“OK.”

I quickly wrapped the towel around my body.

I felt safe all of a sudden.

Ming brought in a chair. I leaned my head against the chair. He adjusted the water temperature and washed my hair slowly.

I looked up and I could see Ming’s face.

His long fingers cut through my hair. He washed the bubbles out of my hair slowly. He looked very serious.

When it was almost over, he realized that I was looking at him.

He looked at me first and smiled. Then his eyes changed...

He seemed to be looking at my...

I quickly realized that my bath towel was too low.

Half hidden could be the most deadly attraction.

I quickly covered my chest and blushed a little.

He didn’t talk but washed my hair. He took a towel and wiped the excess water for me.

“I’ll do the rest myself.” I took the towel.

“It’s almost wiped. Put on your housecoat and come out. I’ll wait for you outside.”

He turned and went out.

I quickly got up and touched the wound on my back. Because it was behind me, it didn’t get too much water.

I put on my housecoat and went out.

After going out, I saw Ming holding a small medicine box. Naturally he said to me, “come to the bedroom.”

With that, he went into the bedroom.

I saw him go in and I was a little flustered.

I hesitated for a moment and went in.

I went in and saw Ming open the medicine chest. There were gauze and ointment and other things in it. He took out the cotton swab so I realized I thought too much.

He patted the bed beside him and said, “come on, lie down. I’ll see your wound.”

“OK.”

I leaned over and lay down.

I felt his warm fingers lift one side of my housecoat and expose my wound to the air.

He touched it with a cotton swab and examined it carefully before saying, “fortunately, the wound is not cracked. Next time, be careful, or I will not let you take a bath alone.”

Though Ming’s voice was gentle, it also carried some warnings.

I knew that if I had another problem next time, he may really help me take a bath.

“I won’t. Thank you.”

I shyly put down my housecoat and sat up.

I looked down and saw that his arm with the cotton swab was a little red. He was scalded just when he turned off the water.

I stretched out my hand. My fingertips gently fell on his red skin, “I’m sorry. I’ll be careful next time.”
