Staring at the wooden door, she yelled, Why do you care? I dont need you to rub my back. Ill do whatever I please, if that means taking baths twice, then so be it!

She decided not to entertain him any further. That blasted busybody outside could be very irritating!

Ye Ling also looked at the wooden door, then shyly spoke in a soft whisper, Duo Er, are you done?

Hearing the gentleness in his voice, Liu Duo approached him and whispered back, No, I want to spend a little more time in the bath with you.

Ye Mo could hear her displeasure from outside, and he loved it as he thought to himself, my wife is so smart, she knows exactly what Im thinking!

Then he turned and headed to the outhouse to deal with his needs.

The two heard him go and each heaved a sigh of relief.

The blasted third wheels finally gone, thought Liu Duo.

Mo has finally left, thought Ye Ling.

The former didnt want Ye Mo as an audience, the latter didnt want Ye Mo to know he was bathing with Liu Duo. He was embarrassed by that fact.

Ling, help me wash my back, will you? Liu Duo said with an unmistakable twinkle in her eyes.

Just because she didnt want the other men to rub her back or bathe with her didnt mean she wouldnt grant Ye Ling the privilege. The other three were as hungry as wolves, but Ye Ling was as shy as a little lamb!

Ye Ling watched her turn around with a smile, showing him her beautiful back, leaving him stunned for a while before he shyly placed a hand on it.

And then very gently and slowly he began to rub her back

Liu Duo had both hands perched on the sides of the tub as she enjoyed Ye Lings tender movements. She said to him, Ling, exert some force into it. You dont have to be so gentle. Im not tofu, youre not going to hurt me.

He wasnt using enough force. She could barely feel an itch.

Oh, Ye Ling blushed and replied as he put more weight onto the rubbing.

She appreciated his compliance. Liu Duo smiled with her back towards him, dimples showing.

When Ye Mo exited the outhouse, he instantly turned his gaze towards the bathroom. He could still see the light in there, so that meant Liu Duo hadnt left. He walked over there again.

He had barely walked a few steps when he heard Liu Duo say, Ling, a little bit more to the left.

Hehe, this was unexpected! Lings inside too? Were the two bathing together?

He arched his brows, lightened his steps, and tiptoed along the way to the bathroom.

He approached the wooden door and placed an ear close to it, listening for sounds.

Ling, my turn to give you a back rub. Turn around.

Alright.

Ye Mo managed to register the gentleness and shyness in his voice. He moved even closer to the door.

The two individuals inside didnt even know that there was an unwanted guest outside eavesdropping for the second time.

Ye Mo hadnt forgotten that the last time he did this he was punished very hard for it. He just hadnt expected his youngest brother to be sharing a bath with Liu Duo!

Ye Lius prediction really came true. Liu Duo was indeed willing to take a bath with Ye Ling.

Ye Ling, back facing Liu Duo this time, perched his arms on the sides of the tub. Because of his shyness, his whole body went stiff, and the muscles on his back tightened.

Liu Duo placed her fair hands on his back and gave him a good rub with just the right amount of strength. Ling, relax, can you? Why are you so nervous? Like I said, theres no need to be shy.

Ye Ling didnt intend to, but it just so happened he couldnt help it.

To relieve him of his shyness, Liu Duo changed the topic. Ling, do you want to come with me to town tomorrow?
