"Master's wife, you'll catch a cold like this. I... I'll hug you and warm you up?"

Chen You regretted it as soon as she finished speaking!

Good heavens, what am I doing?

My master's wife is a shy person by nature. Wouldn't saying this embarrass her?

If this causes a drop in favorability, then it would be a huge loss.

However, Xu Qiuxue did not back down.

In the darkness, she paused for a moment, then approached him.

Immediately, Chen You saw her desire.

[Xu Qiuxue's desire: She wants you to hold her tightly and give her warmth! (Completion rewards 10 Desire Points.)]

"So, Master's wife was willing after all..."

In that case, what kind of man would act coy and hesitant now?

So Chen You simply pulled Xu Qiuxue into his arms.

"Chen You...this..."

Xu Qiuxue blushed so deeply it was almost as if blood was about to drip from her face, and a strange feeling arose in her heart.

After all, she's my teacher's wife!

Now, he's actually with his disciple...

What kind of nonsense is this!

"But my husband is gone now. Even if he knew in the afterlife, he wouldn't say anything, would he?"

Thinking of this, Xu Qiuxue's last bit of guard was gone, and she murmured, "Chen You, get some rest, it's getting chilly..."

"Master's wife, I...I want to hold you forever!"

It wasn't that Chen You was deliberately being a hooligan.

The main problem is that the desire points haven't arrived yet.

Was I not holding on tight enough?

So, it tightened again...

Now, Chen You could almost feel those two extremely soft muscles.

Because Xu Qiuxue usually wore loose-fitting clothes, Chen You never expected that the seemingly thin and frail Xu Qiuxue would be so extraordinary.

At this moment, the desire that had been waiting for him finally arrived.

Although it was only 10 Desire Points, Chen You felt even happier than if he had earned 1000 Desire Points.

Because this was the first step for him and Xu Qiuxue to break through.

"Alright, Chen You, have you hugged enough? Let's go back inside. I just boiled some water, it should be lukewarm now, go wash up."

Xu Qiuxue said shyly.

"Okay, I'll do whatever my master's wife says."

A moment later, Chen You thoroughly washed away the sweat and blood from his body.

Xu Qiuxue took the clothes he changed out of and washed them.

After all, there were some dark red bloodstains on the clothes, and if others noticed them, it would inevitably cause unnecessary trouble.

In the cool well water, Xu Qiuxue gently rubbed the clothes.

As she watched the faint red color gradually spread in the basin of water, her feelings became extremely complicated, and her pretty face flushed slightly under the cover of night.

Just now... she actually hugged Chen You tightly.

What made her feel most embarrassed and surprised was that she had always instinctively resisted men's advances, but when she hugged Chen You just now, she felt not only no discomfort, but also an unprecedented sense of peace and security.

She avoided looking at the clothes in her hands, a sweet feeling rising in her heart: her heart was finally tied to him.

Indeed, what woman in this world doesn't like a hero who stands tall and upright, someone who cares for her and stands up for her in times of crisis?

Xu Qiuxue is also a woman with flesh and blood.

Since her husband's unfortunate passing, she has been struggling to raise her younger sister alone. She appears strong, but deep down she is exhausted and longs for a strong shoulder to lean on.

Chen You was so outstanding, both in terms of strength and temperament, that she completely captivated Chen You's long-dormant heart.

"However, perhaps I should take the initiative! I can't let Chen You get too tired; I need to give him a break..."

Xu Qiuxue thought to herself, making up her mind to let Chen You feel her heart.

…………

[Xu Qiuxue's desire: I want to relax you a bit. (Completion rewards 100 Desire Points.)]

Chen You, who had just finished dressing, was stunned when he suddenly saw Xu Qiuxue's lustful expression.

what's going on?

Can I relax for a bit?

"Could it be...?"

Suddenly, Chen You thought of a scene that caught his eye, and he became excited, as if he had been injected with chicken blood.

"Does Master's wife intend to offer herself to me? No way, so soon? I'll wait a bit then. I must fulfill this small wish of hers."

Then, Chen You looked at the prayer beads.

With his safe return, multiple desires were fulfilled.

[Hope you return safely. (Completed, gained 100 Desire Points.)]

[Hoping to pay off debts. (Completed, gained 50 Desire Points.)]

[I want you to hold her tightly. (Completed, gained 10 Desire Points.)]

160 Desire Points credited!

The desire to pay off the debt, although not actually paying it off, means that once the creditor is gone, the debt is naturally gone as well.

Therefore, theoretically, it falls under the category of fulfilling desires.

At this moment, Chen You pushed open the door and came out, intending to take the bathwater out and pour it away.

Looking up, he saw Xu Qiuxue squatting by the well, struggling to rub her clothes in the dim moonlight.

The icy well water turned her originally fair and tender hands red with cold, and they trembled slightly in the cold wind.

Chen You frowned slightly, immediately put down the basin of water, and went over. Without saying a word, she pulled Xu Qiuxue up, saying, "Master's wife, it's too cold. You should go back and rest early. I'll wash the clothes tomorrow!"

The sudden warmth on her wrist made Xu Qiuxue's heart skip a beat. She blushed and whispered, "Well... okay then, but I'll wash it tomorrow. There's no reason for a man to wash clothes."

Chen You didn't argue much about the clothes. Instead, he took out two taels of silver from his pocket and stuffed it into her hand: "Master's wife, this is two taels of silver. I got it from Lin Hu and the others. Keep it for now and supplement your household expenses."

Xu Qiuxue looked at the silver in her hand and quickly pushed it back: "How can this be? You keep it for yourself! You are a martial artist now. You will need money for martial arts training, medicinal cuisine, and tonics. There are many places where you will need money. The family has enough for now."

"I still have some on me." Chen You smiled and firmly stuffed it into his hand again.

Seeing Chen You's insistence, Xu Qiuxue had no choice but to accept it somewhat shyly. Looking at his handsome face, she said softly, "By the way, you must be exhausted after all that tonight. Come in and sit down, I'll massage your shoulders to help you relax."

"So, a massage is just to help me relax..."

This is not quite what Chen You expected.

But thinking about it, it makes sense. How long has it been since Master passed away?

If it's that fast, wouldn't Master be so angry he'd come back to life?

"Thank you for your hard work, Master's wife."

"Come inside!"

"Um!"

A moment later, the light in the inner room flickered slightly. Chen You took off his outer clothes and obediently lay down on the bed.

Xu Qiuxue sat on the edge of the bed, stretched out her slightly red but warm hands, and began to massage his shoulders with moderate force.

"Your shoulders are so stiff," Xu Qiuxue frowned slightly, the firm touch on her fingertips making her feel a little sorry for them. "Do they often feel sore?"

Chen You took a deep breath and felt a soreness in the spot where the fingertips were pressing. She replied, "Yes, sometimes it feels very heavy on rainy days."

Xu Qiuxue sighed softly, her movements becoming gentler as she said softly, "This is a ailment left over from years of hard work. In the past, to make a living, you took on all sorts of heavy and tiring jobs, which damaged your muscles and bones. Although you've started practicing martial arts now, you'll have to slowly take care of the ailments you developed before."

"Actually, it's much better than before. After practicing martial arts, my body is much stronger." Chen You felt the gentle caress of the small hands on his shoulder, and all the fatigue in his body dissipated at that moment.

"But we can't be careless." Xu Qiuxue gently instructed while massaging the area, "If you get tired during practice, just tell your master's wife, and I'll massage you every day. Also, don't skimp on those nourishing medicinal dishes. Tomorrow I'll go to the market to buy some bones to make soup for you, understand?"

Listening to her endless words of concern, Chen You felt a warmth in her heart.

However, to his dismay, he had not yet been able to relieve his desire.

"Could it be something else, not a massage?"

This is not the way to go.

After all, it's worth 100 desire points.

Just as he was making a decision, Xu Qiuxue blushed and said, "Chen You, turn over..."
