Time Travel: My Comfortable Life After Going to the Countryside

Like a frightened little rabbit, He Xiaoqin was easily scooped into Liu Xiangyang's arms. She was petite, and when he completely encircled her, her struggles were almost negligible. "Brother Xiangyang... I was wrong..." she pleaded softly.

He softened his movements, cupped her face, and gently touched her trembling lips. "Will you dare to bully me with them again next time?"

He Xiaoqin's heart pounded like a drum, and she shook her head dazedly, "No, I wouldn't dare..."

"Good girl." Liu Xiangyang ruffled her hair and let go of her. He Xiaoqin's legs went weak, and Zuo Qingqing quickly supported her. Her face was as red as if it were about to bleed.

"Your turn, Qingqing!" Liu Xiangyang turned his gaze to Zuo Qingqing, who was supporting Xiaoqin but looking at him with bright eyes.

Zuo Qingqing, on the other hand, was quite bold. Instead of dodging, she puffed out her chest and said, "Come on! Who's afraid of who! I hit you quite a few times earlier!"

"Oh, pretty arrogant, huh?" Liu Xiangyang chuckled as he walked over. Zuo Qingqing leaned in, tiptoed, and kissed him on the chin, then raised an eyebrow triumphantly: "I struck first!"

Liu Xiangyang was amused by her taking the initiative, so he hugged her tightly and kissed her clever little mouth.

Only when Zuo Qingqing was panting heavily and pounded his chest to signal her surrender did he reluctantly let go, even gently biting her lower lip: "Let's see if you dare to be stubborn again."

Zuo Qingqing leaned against him, panting, but her words were still defiant: "You dare..."

Liu Xiangyang chuckled and patted her bottom before turning to Le Qi and Le Yao, who had automatically lined up, their cheeks flushed but filled with expectant smiles.

The two sisters stood hand in hand, their maroon blouses making them look like two twin lotus blossoms.

"Qiqi, Yaoyao," Liu Xiangyang walked over and put his arms around their waists, one in each hand, "You two were the ones who were smashing things the most just now, weren't you?"

Le Yao stuck out her tongue: "Who told you to talk nonsense!" Le Qi looked at him gently, her eyes full of smiles.

"There's a 'punishment' for talking nonsense, and there's a 'punishment' for throwing snowballs." Liu Xiangyang first turned to Le Qi and planted a long and affectionate kiss on her lips. Le Qi closed her eyes and responded gently. Next was Le Yao, whose kiss was more lively and passionate, just like her.

Finally, only Jiang Xiaowen, who was standing a little distance away, was left, blushing and at a loss for what to do.

Liu Xiangyang released Le Qi and Le Yao and walked towards Jiang Xiaowen. Jiang Xiaowen subconsciously wanted to back away, but was stopped by his gentle gaze.

"Xiaowen," Liu Xiangyang walked up to her, his voice even softer than when he spoke to others, "Did you... throw a snowball just now?"

Jiang Xiaowen shook her head frantically, then nodded, her voice barely audible: "I... I threw away just a tiny bit..."

"Then I have to 'punish' you too, otherwise it's not fair, right?" Liu Xiangyang's heart melted as he looked at her trembling eyelashes.

Jiang Xiaowen bit her lip, closed her eyes, and looked nervous, as if she were at the mercy of the other party.

He lowered his head and placed a kiss on her smooth forehead. "I'll punish you tomorrow."

After his "punishment," Liu Xiangyang was naturally satisfied and refreshed. The women, who had been "tease" by him, though their faces were flushed and they feigned innocence, couldn't hide the smiles and intimacy in their eyes. This frolicking and affection in the snow, like the warmest winter sun, tightened the bond between them and Liu Xiangyang, making it even sweeter.

Xue Bingbing was the first to recover. Looking at her group of "pathetic" sisters and her own flushed cheeks, she cleared her throat and said, "Have you had enough? If you keep going, it'll be dark soon. It's not good to be covered in sweat and then catch a cold. Let's go back!"

The group then chuckled and tidied each other's clothes and hair, crowding around Liu Xiangyang as they walked home, their feet crunching through the snow.

After laughing and joking all the way back, they were all covered in a thin layer of sweat. When the cold wind outside hit them, they couldn't help but shiver.

Xue Bingbing immediately said, "Everyone's sweating, quickly boil some water and take a hot bath to get rid of the chill, so you don't catch a cold."

The inner room door closed, and the faint sound of water and the girls' hushed laughter could be heard. Soon, Luo Lan, Jiang Xiaowen and the others came out after washing up. Their hair was wet, their faces were flushed from the steam, and they had changed into clean cotton pajamas. Their bodies exuded a fresh scent of soap and young skin.

"Go warm up on the kang (heated brick bed) and dry your hair," Xue Bingbing instructed. Then she called to Zuo Qingqing and He Xiaoqin, grabbed her change of clothes, and went into the bathroom.

Liu Xiangyang sat leisurely in the main room, listening to the sounds from the kitchen and the faint sound of water from the inner room. He absentmindedly flipped through "Essentials of Sexual Health" in his hand, his mind already drifting to tonight.

After Xue Bingbing and the others finished washing up and came out, dinner was ready. After dinner, as night deepened, the others smiled knowingly and went back to their rooms.

Xue Bingbing pulled the still somewhat bewildered Jiang Xiaowen back to their room with Luo Lan, seemingly to give her some pre-battle coaching.

Zuo Qingqing and He Xiaoqin also returned to their rooms. Before closing the door, Zuo Qingqing peeked out and gave Le Qi and Le Yao a thumbs-up, which Le Yao laughed and pushed back.

Inside the room, only Liu Xiangyang, Le Qi, and Le Yao remained, the light from the bulb casting their shadows on the wall.

"Brother Xiangyang," Leqi, wearing a moon-white silk bodice, walked over and naturally took the book from his hand, putting it away. "The water's ready, let's wash you!"

Liu Xiangyang nodded in agreement, and Le Qi went to bring over the prepared warm water, while Le Yao brought over a soft towel and a set of clean cotton trousers and a jacket.

"Brother Xiangyang, we'll help you." Leqi said softly. She and Leyao helped Liu Xiangyang take off his coat, revealing his young and strong physique under the dim light of the oil lamp.

Le Yao was bolder; she gently traced her fingers across his muscular chest, a sly yet shy smile on her face.

Leqi was even more meticulous, using a wrung-out, warm towel to gently wipe his broad shoulders, starting with each one.

Her movements were light and gentle; her fingertips occasionally brushed against his skin unintentionally, causing a slight shiver to run through him.

Liu Xiangyang stood relaxed, letting the two sisters serve her. The warmth from the hot water and the gentle touch of their fingertips quickly dispelled the last trace of winter chill and ignited a fire deep within her body.

When she reached her waist, Leqi paused noticeably, a deeper blush rising on her cheeks. Leyao moved closer, her breathing becoming somewhat rapid.

The air was filled with the fresh scent of soapberries and a gradually warming, ambiguous atmosphere.

Leqi took a deep breath, tilted her head back, her eyes glistening with tears, reflecting the flickering lights and the majestic figure before her.

Almost at the same moment, Le Yao also understood that the wonderful telepathic connection between her twin sister and her sister was now clearly manifested.

Without the slightest hesitation or jealousy, she naturally snuggled closer, kneeling beside Liu Xiangyang. Her soft little hands, carrying a sense of comfort and encouragement, gently rested on his legs. Her upturned face displayed the same infatuation and sacrificial expression as Le Qi.

Leqi and Leyao are looking up at everyone, why don't you leave something behind?
