Seeing that Gu Yun didn't answer, He Xuan turned around and walked into the bathroom.
There were heavy clouds outside the window, and the temperature in the air spread into Gu Yun's heart. It was a fragrance that was full of words but infinite in meaning.
To him, He Xuan was like a star in a quantum state. When he was in the observation state, the starlight easily took away all his attention.
It wasn't until this moment that Gu Yun turned his gaze and discovered the details that were covered up by the dazzling light.
Such as the unique smell of her body and the room.
It was not a simple perfume, but a natural smell that diffused from the skin, as if there was a kind of magic, secretly squeezing his throat.
Compared with the first-generation assistant He Xuan and the short-lived second-generation assistant Cheng Yingying, they each have their own differences, but what is similar is the spirit of never giving up in their bones. When they are serious, their whole bodies shine.
Unlike Cheng Yingying who is obsessed with changing her life and destiny, He Xuan does not have much ambition for wealth and just wants to do things seriously and well.
The position of assistant to the president is not easy to hold without a delicate heart. If He Xuan takes it too seriously, he will have to let the torrent of society wash over him.
But so far, she has not lived a carefree and happy life, as if the bad things in the workplace have never left her mind.
On the contrary, in another field where the competition is more fierce, He Xuan is like a fish swimming upstream, trying her best to gain further joy.
Ten minutes later, He Xuan still had no intention of coming out. Following the vague smell, Gu Yun walked towards where she was.
Pushing open the bathroom door, Gu Yun saw He Xuan stepping on the edge of the toilet with one leg, using a palm-sized cushion to carefully wipe her calves and thighs under her pajamas.
"You drank so much and still put on body lotion? You're not afraid of falling."
"It's not like you are here, someone will help you if you fall."
He Xuan looked back at him, with a smile on her lips, and kept working on her hands.
She opened the bottle at hand, spread the milky white paste inside on her fingertips, and applied it to her skin carefully and skillfully.
"Besides, I've long been used to it, and I don't know how to sleep until I finish the process."
He Xuan's body leaned forward, her buttocks were slightly raised, and she used her palms to massage her calves, showing an alluring curve.
As Botticelli said, the source of temptation is the inadequacy of vision.
The white skin under the girl's pajamas is the haziness and obstruction that is with her body.
"I see that you have sobered up completely. You can even apply body lotion. Go to bed early. I'll go back first."
As soon as Gu Yun finished speaking, the girl's leg that was on the edge of the toilet slipped away. She slipped and was about to fall.
"ah!"
Gu Yun took a step forward and hugged He Xuan's shoulders and back with both hands, holding her in place to prevent her from falling.
"Don't force it. Even if you don't apply it today, your skin will still be great. Go to bed."
In the quiet autumn night, Gu Yun put his hand on the girl's crest and slowly slid it over, patting it gently.
Skin that has been carefully cared for feels great to the touch, with amazing smoothness and tightness at the same time, making all imperfections disappear.
If it weren't for the warmth contained under his palm, Gu Yun would have thought he was touching the calm surface of the lake.
"Minister Gu, can you help me apply it? I seem to be unable to stand still."
Even though she was feeling unwell after being drunk, He Xuan stood up unshakably and did what she had to do, with an amazing sense of discipline.
"...I should go back."
"Isn't it okay to leave after applying it?"
He Xuan stared at Gu Yun, her eyes filled with mist, and she was waiting for an answer.
"good."
Gu Yun thought for a while and finally compromised.
"Well, this is the only leg left."
He Xuan turned around and handed him a small brown jar. Gu Yun took it and looked down at the thing in his hand.
This is a standard medicine jar commonly used in foreign countries, but there is no standard label on it, only a set of numbers.
Obviously, this is not a mass-produced skin care product.
Gu Yun handed the body lotion to him from He Xuan and carefully applied it on her calves, from knees to ankles, and then to the five white and tender toes. He felt like an archaeologist taking care of the most precious celadon.
"Minister Gu, you don't need to paint here."
After Gu Yun completed his masterpiece, He Xuan said softly.
The blush on the girl's jawline extended to her neck. She raised her toes and pursed her lips at Gu Yun.
The soft and shiny snow-white feet, coated with a layer of body lotion that does not belong to them, gave off an ambiguous light under the dim corridor lamp.
Her name for Gu Yun has never changed.
Even though she has succeeded Gu Yun as the new generation of propaganda minister, the Gu Yun in He Xuan's heart is still the boss who seemed omnipotent just after he stepped into the campus, the young man in white who descended from the sky to solve the problems at home.
"I've finished applying it. Why didn't you tell me earlier to help you go back to bed?"
"OK."
The girl giggled, like a night orchid blooming for the first time.
I usually serve you, but it’s rare for you to put body lotion on me, so why should you take the initiative to say so?
Gu Yun carefully stretched out his hand, half-supported and half-hugged, took out a pillow and put it on the head of the bed, and then put He Xuan on the bed.
Late at night, everything was quiet. He Xuan was leaning on the bedside, holding a huge teddy bear on her chest. The straps of her pajamas were a little messy because she had just applied body lotion, and the carved U-shaped collarbone was clearly visible.
.
In the bedroom filled with girlish feelings, the two of them were silent to each other. He Xuan looked straight at Gu Yun, but there was a little more complexity in her usually clear eyes.
We have known each other for more than a year, and for the first time I feel a subtle affection growing in my heart, taking root and sprouting.
"I am leaving."
Gu Yun's voice and throat were a little dry, but he didn't dare to stay where he was.
"See you."
He Xuan smiled softly, pulled up a corner of the quilt and lay down, covering her bare feet exposed in the air, seeming relieved.
There is no reason to keep him anymore.
Even if there is alcohol, atmosphere, and occasions, I can only work hard so far.
No matter how tempted I am, he is my best friend's man after all, so I can't do it.
Really not possible.
He Xuan lay on the pillow, opened her eyes and looked at the ceiling above her head. The fine lines on it were still decorated by herself, just like the endless melancholy in her heart.
She recalled that she had read Li Ao's poems when she was young. Just like his words, they were simple and straightforward, but pointed directly to people's hearts.
don’t love that much,
Just love a little bit.
Others’ eyebrows come and go,
I only stole a glance at you.
"Drive slowly and be careful on the road."
All the emotions were hidden in He Xuan's heart and turned into a polite exhortation.
Gu Yun nodded, turned around and took the first step.
boom!
The dark clouds that had been brewing for a long time finally bore fruit.
The thunder was deafening, and the lightning illuminated the entire room, reflecting the girl's slightly startled profile.
Gu Yun opened the window to check the situation and saw heavy rain falling gradually from the clouds, accompanied by the howling and manic autumn wind.
Before a minute had passed, the stagnant water on the roadside had already gathered into a stream. The wind broke a few weak branches and hit the electric car downstairs. The siren went unheeded and surrounded the sky.
"It seems that you can't go back for the time being."
"yes."
Although I drove the car, the rain was so heavy that I could no longer see the road clearly. The vehicles on the road were flashing and slowly moving forward.
"Then, sit down for a while."
Lightning is a naturally falling ladder in the sky, breaking through the thick barrier between dreams and reality.
He Xuan stood up again from the original position of lying on her side, and the stars twinkled in her eyes.
