Su Yanyi shook off 001 and wrapped herself in a bathrobe before leaving the bathroom. She was greeted by the sight of Qin Jiran sitting stiffly on the sofa. When he saw her come out, he immediately shot to his feet.
She could tell that he was embarrassed, but she chose not to comment on it. Ignoring him, she picked up a clean towel and started to dry her hair. However, because her hair was too long, a few tresses kept slipping out. Impatient, her movements increased in aggression until her head eventually started to hurt.
Qin Jiran asked tentatively, “I can help you with that?”
He simply couldn’t bear to stand by and watch as Su Yanyi destroyed her own hair. It made his heart ache, so the question had involuntarily slipped out.
Thinking he had been too abrupt, he looked at her awkwardly and hurriedly tried to explain, “Your scalp will hurt if you keep doing that.”
Su Yanyi stopped wiping her hair and looked up, scrutinizing him as if skeptical about his intentions, but then she recalled his attentive care for her during her time as a human vegetable and relaxed.
“Okay,” she agreed, surprising him when she passed the towel over. However, he quickly recovered. Carefully, he helped her dry her hair, and although he actually wasn’t very experienced, his movements were exceptionally gentle and attentive. He made sure that he wasn’t hurting her at all.
Soon, he became more skillful, and he even started to lightly massage her scalp as he carried out his ministrations. It felt so comfortable that Su Yanyi felt her eyes droop a bit.
As expected, this man was good at taking care of others!
Just as she finished praising him in her heart, a wave of displeasure washed over her. What was she thinking?
Rather than saying he was good at taking care of other, it should be said that he was good at taking care of
Complete! Ten points!
When she heard the notification, she was consumed by feelings of turmoil. She was surprised, happy, irritated, and unspeakably guilty.
Making someone smile genuinely was both hard and easy at the same time.
In the past, she’d never gone out of her way to make anyone smile before. Neither had she experienced the emotions of anxiety, disappointment, anticipation, hesitation, and dedication that she had experienced in her current life. Sometimes, her past self would feel gloomy and void.
And now, she had finally completed the mission of making Qin Jiran smile genuinely ten times. She wasn’t used to the tide of emotions that was crashing against her heart, and she didn’t know what to make of it either.
