"What!"
Erniu, hearing Zhou Meiling's shy voice and recalling the softness he had just touched, felt a jolt in his heart the next second, and quickly withdrew his hand as if he'd been electrocuted.
"Sorry, Mei Ling! I couldn't see anything just now, and I touched it by accident..." Erniu's ears were almost burning red.
But he had to admit, the feel of it was quite... something.
Zhou Meiling's face was flushed with a rapid heartbeat as she shyly turned her head and said, "It's okay, Erniu, I know you didn't do it on purpose."
"But, maybe you should get up first…"
"Right, right!" Erniu got up fumblingly, and Zhou Meiling followed suit, picking up the towel in her hand and wiping the foam off Erniu's face despite her shyness, "Let me do that for you."
"Thanks, Mei Ling..."
Erniu's eyes felt much more comfortable, and when he opened them, he saw Zhou Meiling's pretty face turned an even deeper shade of red, her hair and the thin nightgown both wet from the water on the floor.
