Cai Xiu was now inside her private washing room, immersed in the soothing warmth of her Chinese bathtub.
The steam enveloped her as she washed her entire body, ensuring no spot went untouched.
Each splash of water felt nice and gentle against Cai Xiu's white skin.
She closed her eyes, letting the scent of jasmine from the oils she used fill her senses.
"First Young Lady, your tea time is in an hour," a young servant of the Cai family spoke, her voice respectful as she stood nearby, holding a towel in hand.
"Thank you; I'll be out in a second," Cai Xiu replied as she slowly rose from the warm water, the steam swirling around her like a gentle fog.
Since the death of her bodyguard, she had found herself treating the servants of the Cai family with greater kindness.
