The Rough Hunter’s Little Lucky Wife Chapter 205 Nightfall

205 Nightfall
Yue Jiaojiao’s petite fingertips were carefully held in Zhao Zhan’s hands, and the contrast of their skin colors was clear.
There was no oven in Heart Hall’s small kitchen, so the pastries were steamed. Zhao Zhan was worried that the heat would burn the woman, so he went to wash his hands and took the pastries to her lips as he blew on it.
“Do you want a bite?”
Yue Jiaojiao lowered her head and took a bite.
Her lips were red, and when she opened her mouth, she revealed the tip of her pink tongue. Then, she bit out a small crescent moon on the cake.
“It’s delicious.” Yue Jiaojiao squinted her eyes in satisfaction. “Your cooking skills are getting better and better.”
When she lowered her head, her lips were stained with a bit of the white frost from the pastry.
Zhao Zhan raised his hand and rubbed the corner of her lips with his rough fingertips, affectionately wiping away the residue at the corner of her lips. Then, he continued to feed the woman the rest as if nothing had happened.
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became romantic.
Yue Jiaojiao lowered her eyes, her gaze focused on the pastry in Zhao Zhan’s hand, trying to ignore the burning gaze behind her ears.
Yue Jiaojiao took small bites of the pastry and accidentally touched Zhao Zhan’s fingertips when she took the last bite.
Her movements paused slightly, and before she could react, she was off her feet!
Zhao Zhan quickly walked to the bed and gently put down the delicate person in his arms. He then went to wring the warm handkerchief and came back to wipe her hands and face clean.
It was only then that Yue Jiaojiao suddenly realized that the sky outside had already darkened.
The room was dark, and only Zhao Zhan’s silhouette could be clearly seen.
After wiping her hands and face clean, Zhao Zhan fetched a new basin of water and returned. Then, he knelt down on one knee and helped Yue Jiaojiao remove her shoes and socks. With gentle movements, he placed her feet into the water that was of the right temperature.
After soaking her feet for an entire day to relieve her fatigue, Yue Jiaojiao took a deep breath and felt that this was as comfortable as it would get.
Zhao Zhan had been caring for her the whole time, filling her cup with hot water twice in the middle. When he saw that it was almost time, he took a handkerchief and thoughtfully wiped her feet dry.
The blanket was cold, and Yue Jiaojiao subconsciously shivered the moment he lifted the blanket.
When Zhao Zhan saw this, he took out the clothes that had been covering his chest and wrapped them around her feet. Then, he covered her with the blanket again. “I’ll be back immediately.”
After giving his instructions, Zhao Zhan quickly washed up.
By the time he lay down, the cold blanket felt like a small stove had rolled into it. Yue Jiaojiao pushed aside the clothes that were wrapped around her feet and used her hands and feet to lie in his arms like a koala.
The two of them hugged each other very tightly, and Zhao Zhan subconsciously hugged her back with both arms.
Yue Jiaojiao felt herself warming up from the inside out.
In the night, Zhao Zhan’s eyes were open. He lowered his eyes and silently kissed the top of Yue Jiaojiao’s head. He waited until her breathing gradually calmed down and she fell asleep before he slowly pulled himself away. Then, he put on his clothes and walked to the courtyard. He picked up the bag that he had packed in advance and pushed open the courtyard door.
“Zhao Zhan.”
Someone was calling him out of the blue in the middle of the night.
When Zhao Zhan looked up, he saw Sun Jiyan, who was dressed in a white robe that was shockingly bright in the night.
“Jiyan?”
“My master went to bed early. He guessed that you might leave tonight, so he asked me to keep watch here.” Sun Jiyan walked slowly to Zhao Zhan in his usual elegant manner. “I’ve prepared a horse for you. It’s tied to the backyard now. Since you’re going to bring pastries for my master, you have to have a decent horse.”
