~4 minute read · 1,071 words

In ancient times, if a man let a woman wash his feet, it meant that he had completely accepted her.

So, it means that from this moment on, Young Master Lin has completely accepted me, and that I am now Young Master Lin's woman.

Thinking about what was going to happen next, her pretty face was covered in a blush.

However, Lin Yi at this moment didn't notice at all.

In his mind, this kind of foot washing was already a normal thing, and besides, the other person has always been like a sister to him.

A sister washing her brother's feet is also quite normal, isn't it?

But he truly didn't know that the other person didn't see him as a real brother, but rather a lover.

"Alright, alright, washing like this is fine. I wasn't too tired today, washing my feet made me feel much more comfortable.

Okay, you can get up now and take a rest. You've had to boil water so late at night, you must be tired. Quickly go back and rest, I can handle the foot water later myself."

Just within a minute of Leng Yu washing his feet, Lin Yi quickly spoke up.

He simultaneously reached out to help pull the other person up.

Even though he treated the other person like a sister, she was still a charming young lady, and propriety should be observed between men and women.

Therefore, just washing the feet briefly was enough,

If he didn't agree with her today, she probably wouldn't let go,

After all, he understood her stubborn temperament quite well these past few days,

She's like a mule; if she sets her sights on something, she won't stop until she achieves it.

That's why he reluctantly agreed to her request, allowing her to wash his feet.

Now that his feet were washed, he just wanted to rush her back to her room to sleep, and he needed to rest a bit himself.

He had been busy for most of the night, and truthfully, he was tired. If this girl hadn't caused a commotion that woke him up, he probably would have already collapsed asleep.

"It's alright, the water is still quite warm, let me massage them a bit more, okay?"

However, despite Lin Yi's words encouraging her to rest, Leng Yu evidently had no intention of stopping.

Seeing Lin Yi attempt to pull his foot out of the water, she promptly applied a bit of force to press his foot back into the water, and her hands resumed massaging his feet.

Seeing this situation, Lin Yi was also at his wit's end. He shook his head helplessly, then let Leng Yu continue.

If this girl insisted on doing it, he would just let her be. At worst, he'd treat her like a real younger sister from now on.

And so, Lin Yi leaned against the bedside, enjoying the service, and soon, a wave of sleepiness came over him, causing him to yawn uncontrollably.

Nonetheless, even after he yawned, Leng Yu didn't stop. Instead, she scooped a ladle of hot water from the wooden bucket and poured it into a foot tub.

Having been busy most of the night, Lin Yi was already somewhat sleepy, and the warm water soaking his feet made him even more drowsy.

Despite this, Leng Yu didn't stop, which led Lin Yi, leaning against the bed edge, to slowly and unknowingly drift into slumber.

While asleep, he had a rather warm dream, dreaming of snuggling with his beloved wife and sleeping together.

Of course, they just slept simply and did nothing else.

As for why though, he didn't know; he just knew that in his dream he was holding his wife and slept through the night.

Early the next morning, as a warm ray of sunlight entered the room, Lin Yi awoke instantly.

And at this moment, he was lying in bed.

He didn't think much of it, and as usual, stretched out his arms lazily,

but as he extended his arm, he suddenly felt something touch his right arm.

This startled him, causing him to turn his head in confusion, and suddenly he saw a pretty face lying quietly beside him.

This shocked him greatly. He immediately sat up and this abrupt move startled the sleeping Leng Yu.

As she opened her eyes and saw Lin Yi sitting on the bed, her pretty face flushed with embarrassment.

Noticing her shyness, the girl covered herself with the quilt, afraid to peek out.

At this point, Lin Yi was completely flustered. Seeing this situation, he immediately jumped off the bed and looked at the bulging quilt, momentarily rendered speechless.

He had no idea what had happened, why he was lying on the bed.

In his impression, he was being served by this girl with a foot wash, but as the washing continued, how did he end up in bed?

And what puzzled him further was, when did this girl crawl into bed?

His mind was full of questions, but there was no one to provide the answers he wanted.

What hadn't been mentioned before was Lin Yi's consistently deep sleep.

When he sleeps, unless someone pushed him hard, he would rarely awaken.

That's why even though he slept holding Leng Yu throughout the night, he didn't wake up.

Moreover, the critical reason was the dream he had; he always thought that the one he was holding was his wife, Xiao Zihan.

It was a surprise that, in the dream, Xiao Zihan turned into Leng Yu.

Thankfully, he quickly checked himself and found his clothes were intact, which allowed him to breathe a sigh of relief.

Being in a closed room at night with a girl genuinely frightened him as he worried about indulging any animalistic behavior.

Thankfully, no such thing happened; he just slept with her, which gave him considerable relief.

Fortunately, it's fine; sleeping with his sister isn't a big deal really, especially since they were both fully clothed, which made it even less of an issue.

Just that seeing the bulging quilt on the bed left him in a predicament, how should he face this girl?

He was baffled, wondering what might be swirling inside this girl's head.
