This scene caused Quan Jue's body to tense up.
He got out of bed to retrieve his phone.
The caller ID showed Quan Jingzhou's name.
Quan Jue only glanced at it for a moment before hanging up the call and turning off his phone.
Then, he walked to the bed and lifted Chi Jiao up.
"I'll take you to wash your face."
Chi Jiao buried her face in his chest. When she thought of the fiery scene earlier and the physical reaction Quan Jue had shown, her face couldn't help but boil in embarrassment.
Quan Jue carried her to the bathroom and made her sit at the sink.
Then, he dipped a towel in hot water and helped Chi Jiao wipe her face.
The girl's skin was as delicate as a flower petal. A simple press that was a little too hard would leave a red mark, so Quan Jue's actions were very gentle.
After wiping her face, Chi Jiao became much more energetic.
