Time Travel: My Comfortable Life After Going to the Countryside

However, at this warm and cozy moment, Zuo Qingqing's ever-quick-witted, teasing voice rang out, not too loud, not too soft, just loud enough for everyone in the main room to hear:

"Hey! Sister Lan, it's not even 'shift' time yet, why are you starting already?"

These words were like a pebble thrown into a calm pond, instantly shattering the previously scattered murmurs in the main room.

All eyes immediately turned to them. Xue Bingbing was talking to Le Qi when she turned around at the sound and saw Luo Lan blushing as she left Liu Xiangyang's shoulder, while Liu Xiangyang still had his arm around her shoulder. She immediately understood what was going on and couldn't help but smile.

Le Yao burst out laughing, and Le Qi couldn't help but shake her head with a smile as well.

He Xiaoqin and Jiang Xiaowen lowered their heads shyly, but couldn't help but secretly peek.

Roland's face flushed bright red, even more so than before. She hurriedly moved away from Liu Xiangyang, stammering, "Qingqing, what nonsense are you talking about! I...I just..."

"I was just too moved, I couldn't help it?" Zuo Qingqing replied with a grin, winking. "I understand, I understand. With Xiangyang being so capable, who wouldn't be moved!" She deliberately dragged out the word "capable," which drew another round of chuckles from the crowd.

Roland was speechless after being teased by her, and could only look to Xue Bingbing for help.

Xue Bingbing suppressed a laugh and stepped in to smooth things over: "Alright, Qingqing, stop teasing Lanlan. We're all happy that Lanlan and Xiangyang have a good relationship." As she spoke, she looked at Liu Xiangyang with a mischievous smile in her eyes, "Brother Xiangyang, look, you've even moved Sister Lan."

Looking at Luo Lan's embarrassed expression, and then at the group of women who seemed to enjoy the drama, Liu Xiangyang felt both amused and touched. He reached out and gently pinched Luo Lan's flushed cheek, then said to Zuo Qingqing, "Comrade Qingqing, it seems you care a lot about our family's feelings. Wouldn't you like to be moved too?"

Zuo Qingqing blushed and snorted, "I don't need to! I'm determined! I'm going back to sleep." As she spoke, she hid behind He Xiaoqin.

"Alright, alright, everyone go back to sleep. We all have a lot to do tomorrow, so get some rest," Leqi said, clapping her hands.

As soon as Le Qi finished speaking, she led Le Yao, Zuo Qingqing, and He Xiaoqin back to their respective rooms. In the main room, only Liu Xiangyang, Xue Bingbing, Luo Lan, and the true protagonist of the night, Jiang Xiaowen, whose cheeks were flushed and whose breathing was slightly rapid, remained.

The group dispersed, packed up their belongings, and returned to their respective rooms.

After the others left, Xue Bingbing walked to Jiang Xiaowen's side, took her hand, and said in a gentle but firm voice, "Xiaowen, don't be afraid. Tonight, Sister Lan and I will stay with you." As she spoke, her gaze met Luo Lan's, and a tacit understanding flashed between them.

Roland stepped forward and gently put her arm around Jiang Xiaowen's shoulder: "Xiaowen, relax. Xiangyang will treat you well, and we'll be with you."

The room quieted down, the door was closed tightly, shutting out the chill and stillness of the winter night. The warmth from the stove and the kang (heated brick bed) inside, mixed with a tacit expectation, slowly rose.

Unlike Le Qi and Le Yao's quiet affection, and unlike He Xiaoqin's shyness and nervousness, Xue Bingbing and Luo Lan exchanged a glance, their eyes showing no hesitation, only a tacit understanding, and even a hint of eager anticipation.

They had already decided that Liu Xiangyang was their man and their future. In this matter, they were willing and happy to please him, and they knew how to cooperate with each other to make him happy.

"Brother Xiangyang, you must be tired after a long day. Why don't you soak your feet to relax?" Roland spoke first, his voice still gentle but his movements swift.

She had already brought over the prepared warm water, squatted down, and without saying a word helped Liu Xiangyang take off his shoes and socks, put his feet into the warm water, and her slender but strong fingers began to massage the acupoints on the soles of his feet with just the right amount of pressure.

I noticed a hangnail on his big toe, carefully pulled it off, and looked up at him with a smile.

Xue Bingbing then walked behind Liu Xiangyang, placed her hands on his shoulders, and skillfully massaged his strong shoulders and neck.

She leaned down, her hair, fragrant with the scent of soap, brushing against Liu Xiangyang's ear, her breath sweet as orchids, "Tonight... let us treat you well."

The two women worked in perfect harmony, one in front and one behind, clearly not their first time cooperating like this. Liu Xiangyang leaned comfortably against the bedding on the kang (heated brick bed), enjoying the proactive and attentive service of the two beauties, his body and mind completely relaxed.

After soaking his feet, Roland carefully dried them with a cloth, while Xue Bingbing neatly made the bed.

Liu Xiangyang climbed onto the kang (a heated brick bed), leaned against the bedding, and looked at Jiang Xiaowen.

"Don't be afraid, watch carefully, learn well, and you will surpass your teacher in the future."

Xue Bingbing sat down next to Liu Xiangyang and looked up at him.

"Brother Xiangyang..." Xue Bingbing's voice was muffled.

She lowered her head, her long hair falling down. Occasionally, she would look up and meet Liu Xiangyang's gaze, her eyes alluring and confident.

Liu Xiangyang closed his eyes and gently stroked Xue Bingbing.

Roland watched quietly from the side, his eyes burning with an almost worshipful fervor.

Liu Xiangyang seemed to sense that Luo Lan was a little agitated. He opened his eyes, looked at her, and said, "Lanlan, come here."

Roland's body trembled slightly, and he sat on a duck-like position on the other side of Liu Xiangyang.

"Bingbing is a little tired, you can take over for her." Liu Xiangyang's voice was not loud.

Roland's cheeks flushed, his eyes completely mesmerized.

By this time, Xue Bingbing had tidied herself up and was working seamlessly with Roland.

Jiang Xiaowen watched in stunned silence, her face burning red, her heart pounding wildly.

She was shocked by the straightforward and impactful scene, her mind was in a mess, and her body was involuntarily getting hot.

"Xiaowen," Xue Bingbing said, turning to her during a break, "Why don't you come and give it a try too?"

Jiang Xiaowen crawled over on her knees, her eyes closed, her long eyelashes trembling like startled butterfly wings, her mouth slightly open.

She suddenly opened her eyes and let out a short cry of pain.

"Xiaowen, it will be fine in a moment." Liu Xiangyang's voice reached her ears, carrying hot breath and undeniable tenderness.
