At this moment, hot water had already been drawn in the bathtub and the previously sparse shelves were now filled with unfamiliar bottles and jars.
Upon receiving Yuanya's puzzled gaze, Lan Xiu began to explain the array in front of them.
"These are herbs that help with muscle relaxation, the ones on this row alleviate pain. You have to be careful with the amount when you use them..."
As he spoke, he took a bottle from the shelf and added a particular amount to the bath.
The clear water in the tub began to diffuse a faint, clear, herbal scent— it was rich but not offensive.
Yuanya's nerves seemed to relax.
"You've obviously never used this massage tub before."
Switching it on, Lan Xiu initiated the gentle vibrations from the water.
Seeing Yuanya still motionless, he asked naturally, "Why aren't you moving?"
The warm, steamy air encircled Lan Xiu, even causing the black hair on his forehead to hold a trace of warmth.
