Chapter 54: 054 Trouble Brewing, Wanwan’s Persona Collapsing? Chapter 54: 054 Trouble Brewing, Wanwan’s Persona Collapsing? Inside the bedroom

Tang Wan had just taken a bath, her hair tips still drenched, sticking to her back, and her entire body exuded a chilling coolness. However, at this moment, as their eyes met, she felt as though he had seen right through her, inside and out.

“Won’t you help me dry off?” Jiang Jinsang looked at her seriously.

His whole presence was clear and ethereal, as if enchanting, with pale skin and red lips.

“This…” Tang Wan’s hand hovered in mid-air, unsure of what to do.

He helped her apply medicine, and she had inadvertently splashed water on him with her wet hair. Technically, wiping it off was the logical next step, but she truly couldn’t bring herself to do it.

“There are tissues over there,” Jiang Jinsang said, nodding to one side.

“Okay.” Tang Wan felt relieved, grabbing a tissue to wipe it off seemed manageable.

However, she was so nervous that her hand trembled as the tissue absorbed the water.

“You seem to be really afraid of me,” Jiang Jinsang remarked as he watched the ointment on her knee nearly absorbed, and casually pulled down her rolled-up pant leg.

“Fifth Master, I can do it myself,” Tang Wan said, sitting on a chair and bending over to adjust her pants.

Just as Jiang Jinsang was about to stand up, their gazes momentarily aligned at the same level, and when their eyes met, Tang Wan looked away first. He lowered his voice, “Do I look that frightening?”

Perhaps because he was still bending over, his voice seemed to carry a teasing undercurrent, low and enticing.

“No.”

“Then why won’t you look at me? What are you avoiding?”

“…”

If Tang Wan kept dodging, it made her seem guilty, so she steeled herself and just managed to move her gaze back to him, only to realize just how close they were to each other.

“You always seem a bit nervous around me. Are we still not familiar enough?”

“Maybe that’s it.”
