169: Chapter 169 The Sound of a Clear Spring
Zhao Xiaoshuai had indeed not miscalculated his recovery ability.
Waking up early in the morning, his whole body was basically free of swelling, and because his metabolic rate was far beyond that of an ordinary person, the bruising on his body was almost invisible.
Injuries that would normally take three or four days to heal were as good as new after just one night of sleep.
So much so that Guan Xiaosu, who came to provide the morning "bite" service, didn't even notice he had been injured, just dutifully helping him with the punctual wake-up service.
The best time of the day is the morning, starting every morning with a refreshing release.
"You're awake, go brush your teeth first, I'll prepare to wash your face."
Washing one's face, if you really want to be particular about it, is actually a technical job with a lot of nuances.
It has to do with your skin type, the seasonal temperature, and the level of dryness or dampness.
It's not that the more you do a complete cleaning, the better it is for the skin; excessive cleaning can actually damage the skin.
Generally, using facial cleanser once a day is enough, but there's also a lot to be said about the content of various amino acids in facial cleansers.
And after washing your face, there's also a series of skincare steps like moisturizing...
He was too lazy to study these things, but Guan Xiaosu was a professional, so he just needed to lie there and enjoy it.
Last night, because her mouth was dry, Chu Xinyi drank a lot of water, and although she hadn't slept enough, she was woken up by the urge to urinate early in the morning.
She rubbed her sleepy eyes and got up to go to the bathroom, and because she didn't want to disturb Sister Wenwen who was still fast asleep, she planned to go to the restroom downstairs.
As soon as she got downstairs, she suddenly smelled a strange scent of cosmetics, and she wrinkled her little nose.
Following the scent to the entertainment area in the basement, she saw her brother-in-law lying on the massage bed, with Guan Xiaosu giving him a facial treatment.
Because she had privately investigated the women around her brother-in-law, she had an impression of Guan Xiaosu.
"Brother-in-law, you really are lazy now, can't you even wash your own face?"
Zhao Xiaoshuai, who had heard the footsteps long ago, was not surprised. "How could I wash it as cleanly as a professional? It's you, why aren't you sleeping in today?"
"I got up to pee, I'm going back to sleep in a bit."
"I remember you weren't someone who liked to sleep in before, why do you sleep in every day since coming to my house? Could it be that my bed is too comfortable?"
Sister-in-law blushed. "Mind your own business!"
Mentioning the need to pee, a strong urge hit her, and she hurriedly ran to the nearby restroom.
Splash, splash, splash...
It was like a small stream descending from the sky, landing in a tiny pool, splashing water droplets everywhere, the sound echoing in the cramped space all around, the constant overlapping making the tone even crisper.
It was very quiet early in the morning, and the sound was very pleasant.
Chu Xinyi only realized what was happening halfway through peeing, and her face turned bright red in an instant, but at this point, she couldn't stop!
Moreover, she had been holding this pee for a long time, so there was plenty of it, and it lasted for a long, long time before she was finished.
Drip, drip, drip.
Forcing herself to finish, she was too embarrassed to come out now.
"What should I do! I'm so embarrassed!"
She could only be trapped in the restroom, waiting for that idiot brother-in-law to finish his treatment and return to his room, so she could sneak back.
The sound of flushing and hand-washing ended, but Sister-in-law showed no sign of coming out for a long time, and Zhao Xiaoshuai guessed her thoughts, chuckling to tease her.
Chu Xinyi clearly heard this laughter in the restroom, became even more embarrassed, and cursed him as a big idiot under her breath, but there was nothing she could do.
It was just too awkward to go out now.
Zhao Xiaoshuai knew she wouldn't dare to come out for a while, and he was feeling a bit uncomfortable himself, so he gave Guan Xiaosu a look.
Guan Xiaosu glanced over, following his gaze.
Chu Xinyi had been sitting on the toilet for quite a while, and she couldn't hear the sound of her idiot brother-in-law leaving.
She quietly put her eye to the crack in the door and saw a scene that left her dumbfounded.
"No way, I'm still inside, how can you two..."
Now she was even more embarrassed to go out, and could only be "forced" to watch, swallowing her saliva from time to time.
So she was slightly startled by the movement of Chu Xinyi getting up, and not long after, she woke up too.
Sensing no one beside her, she got up and took a look, the restroom in the room was empty, but Chu Xinyi's underwear and other things were aside, not worn, so it didn't look like she had already gotten up.
She walked out of the room in confusion, and the hall was also empty.
Going up to the second floor, she saw her boyfriend's master bedroom door was ajar, she walked over and pushed it open, but there was no one inside either.
This was strange, where did everyone go early in the morning?
She went down to the first basement level again, and this time she finally saw her boyfriend, he was lying on the massage bed, and a woman was buried on his body.
She had seen this woman before; when iSport changed owners, this woman had helped her a lot as legal counsel, so they were somewhat familiar.
She had also known since that time that this woman named Guan Xiaosu was also one of her boyfriend's women, so compared to the stranger from last night, she was more accepting of Guan Xiaosu.
Without interrupting her hard work, Meng Yawen walked up to her boyfriend and pinched his face:
"You really can't stay idle for even a moment!"
Zhao Xiaoshuai didn't expect that just washing his face in the morning could be so lively, but his skin was truly thick by now, and he still had the spare energy to pull his girlfriend, who had walked up close, over, wanting to give her a morning kiss.
But his little girlfriend pushed him away, "No, I haven't brushed my teeth yet." She still paid great attention to her image in such details, and always only wanted to present the best version of herself to her boyfriend.
However, when Meng Yawen got close, she finally saw that the injuries that had looked so severe on her boyfriend yesterday were actually, just as he had said, all better after just one night of sleep.
That was truly magical.
Guan Xiaosu ignored the suddenly appeared Meng Yawen.
She didn't feel as inferior as Xu Yuyan, and she had confirmed her status as "one of the women" face-to-face with Zhao Xiaoshuai back then.
Although she knew there was still a big gap between herself and Meng Yawen, the official girlfriend who could reveal her identity in public, her naturally cold personality didn't care much about these things.
"Have you seen Xiao Yi? I haven't seen her since I woke up."
"Her? She's in the bathroom inside, she hasn't come out for a long time, maybe she's constipated."
"Who's constipated! Don't talk nonsense!"
An angry rebuttal came from the restroom!
