When Love Turns the Tables: The Mysterious Husband's Chase-Chapter 778: No Matter Whom I Betray, I’ll Never Betray Her (8)

Jiayu hadn’t had a chance to say anything when she heard the calm voice from inside say again, "Just delete it."

"..."

He Xin’s text message, of course, made Jiayu uncomfortable, but she didn’t take that person to heart. Now hearing Mu Ke speak so calmly, not even glancing at it before saying to delete it, Jiayu actually felt a bit pity for He Xin.

"Aren’t you going to take a look?"

This time, no voice came from inside again. Jiayu stood at the door for a while and instead heard the sound of water stop.

Immediately after, the bathroom door opened, and Mu Ke appeared wearing a white bathrobe, with a white towel on his head, his whole body emitting a thin layer of mist, and his eyes particularly glistening.

The hand holding Jiayu’s phone froze, and she stood there in a daze.

First reaction: Wow, a handsome man fresh out of the bath.

Second reaction: Wow, how can he be so handsome?

Third reaction: Wow, am I being starstruck?

Usually, when Mu Ke finished bathing, he would wear his usual home attire of a cotton T-shirt and pants, but now he was in a white bathrobe.

The collar slightly open, revealing his collarbone and a small patch of fair skin, though the skin now had a noticeable blush, which looked even more seductive, brimming with masculinity.

Jiayu swallowed, averted her gaze, and tossed the phone to Mu Ke: "Here, do whatever you see fit."

After saying that, she quickly ran into the bathroom, pretending to be calm as she left a comment, "I’m taking a shower."

Standing under the showerhead, perhaps because they bathed back-to-back, the temperature in the bathroom was high. Jiayu felt her head spinning, and she kept replaying the scene of Mu Ke appearing in front of her just now.

Jiayu felt her cheeks burning like fire.

How could she, at her age, still be starstruck?

This was totally unscientific.

Unlike Mu Ke, who showered quickly, Jiayu dawdled in the bathroom for nearly an hour before coming out. The moment she stepped out of the bathtub, she was dumbfounded. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Because she had rushed in, she hadn’t brought her pajamas, and the only bathrobe in the bathroom was already on Mu Ke.

Jiayu pressed her lips together; if it weren’t for that awkward moment earlier, she’d definitely ask Mu Ke to bring her something, but now, she couldn’t bring herself to ask.

She bit her lip, took a towel to wrap herself up, and cautiously opened the door. No one was there, good.

She quickly walked into the bedroom, stood by the wardrobe to get her pajamas, only wanting to grab them and change inside as fast as possible, not noticing the man standing on the bedroom balcony.

Mu Ke was on a call with his mother, Ms. Wang, his peripheral vision catching sight of the woman standing with her back to him inside the room.

Her long hair was damp and loose, and she was wrapped in a white towel, exposing half of her back and smooth calves.

Jiayu’s back view was beautiful, and once Mu Ke saw it, he couldn’t look away, not even realizing when he had ended the call in his hand.

As he watched Jiayu grab her pajamas and dash back into the bathroom.

Mu Ke was clearly standing on the balcony, feeling the chilly night wind, yet he felt his entire body burning, his mouth dry as if he were standing in the scorching desert.

His heart was a ball of fire, bursting outward...

Jiayu changed and came out, startled as she opened the door to see Mu Ke standing at the entrance, looking at her with deep eyes.
