Chapter five hundred and ninety first a little tenderness
Gu Qingqing crossed Erlang's legs, then leaned on the chair and shook his head.
After transferring all her anger to Li Zichen, her mood was obviously much better.
Li Zichen immediately attracted many servants when he walked out of the room.
"Young Master Zichen, why are you all wet?"
Li Zichen shook his head: "I'm fine, I need to get another basin of hot water."
"Young Master Zichen, leave these things to us! You should change out of your wet clothes first! Otherwise you will catch a cold."
Li Zichen shook his head firmly, then picked up the hot water basin to get the hot water.
"I'm fine. Mom is still waiting for hot water to wash her feet."
The servants were still worried about Li Zichen's condition. They tried to take the basin away from him, but failed.
"Young Master Zichen, please change your clothes first, and leave the hot water to us!"
Li Zichen turned around and left, completely ignoring the soaked clothes on his body: "I'm fine, I'll do it myself, otherwise my mother will be unhappy."
Seeing Li Zichen in this state, the servants couldn't tell how they felt.
Although they all felt that Li Zichen seemed to have received a lot of cultivation and favor in the Li family, the favor from Gu Qingqing seemed like an act.
As bystanders, they often look at Li Zichen and feel extremely sorry for this three-year-old child.
Li Zichen went back to the bathroom and put on the hot water.
The faucet was opened, and countless hot water poured out. Li Zichen stretched out his little hand to test the temperature, completely ignoring that the water flowing out of the faucet was scalding hot.
Li Zichen shrank his hand, as if he felt the hot water scalding his hand.
He adjusted the temperature, then stretched out his hand to test again.
This time, Li Zichen nodded with satisfaction.
The temperature is just right, not hot or cold.
He sighed softly and filled the basin with water.
Li Zichen couldn't help shaking his body while standing in the bathroom. All the clothes on his body were soaked. The water before was hot water, so he couldn't feel it.
But now, the temperature of the hot water has long since dissipated, leaving only a cold touch.
The cold water touches the clothes and sticks to the warm skin, lowering the temperature of the body.
Li Zichen pursed his lips, stretched out his arms to hug himself, and couldn't help but rub his body, trying to bring a little warmth to himself.
But no matter what he did, the temperature on his body was as low as ever, and it seemed that he could never return to the previous temperature.
I don’t know if it’s because my body temperature is low or my heart’s temperature is low.
I don’t know whether the coldness on my body cools my heart, or whether the coolness in my heart exaggerates the temperature of my body...
Seeing that the basin was filled with water, Li Zichen quickly turned off the switch and then picked up the basin filled with hot water again.
He walked out of the bathroom slowly and walked towards Gu Qingqing's room.
After all, Li Zichen is only a three-year-old child. Not only is his body and mind not fully developed in all aspects, but his strength is never as strong as that of an adult.
He was carrying a basin filled with hot water. He was swaying as he walked, as if the next second he would fall to the ground with both himself and the basin.
The water in the basin spilled out due to Li Zichen's shaking, and a lot of water poured on Li Zichen's body again, making his already wet clothes wet again and adding weight.
The servants couldn't stand it: "Young Master Zichen, this basin of water is not light! Let us help you carry it!"
Li Zichen rejected the servants' kindness: "No, I can handle it myself."
At this time, Li Jinze, who had been busy looking for Gu Zichen outside all day, returned to the Li family.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw Li Zichen standing in the hall holding a basin of hot water, soaked to the skin.
Li Jinze frowned, took a few steps forward, and then looked at the servant beside him.
"Is there a water leak in the house?"
The servants lowered their heads in fear: "Master, there is no water leakage in the house."
He continued in a cold voice, looking at Li Zichen with eyes filled with distress.
"Then what happened to Zichen?"
The servants shook their heads quickly: "Master, we don't know very well either."
Li Jinze stretched out his hand and took the basin filled with hot water from Li Zichen's hand.
But Li Zichen did not let go, and his hands were still tightly grasping the edge of the basin.
Looking at Li Zichen who was holding on to the basin with him, Li Jinze frowned: "What are you doing?"
Li Zichen pursed his lips and said, "Father, this is mother's foot-washing water."
"Does she still need you to carry water for washing her feet? Does she still need you to serve her when washing her feet? Don't you have any servants at home?"
Listening to Li Zichen's words, Li Jinze was even more angry.
Li Zichen was the son he had kept by his side for three years! He was reluctant to let him endure hardship, but Gu Qingqing actually asked him to bring her foot-washing water?
Let his son do things that servants do?
Li Zichen paused: "This was not mother's idea, it was me who took the initiative to wash mother's feet."
Li Jinze suppressed his displeasure and looked at Li Zichen with a cold face: "Let go."
Li Zichen still didn't let go, he just kept staring at Li Jinze.
"Father……"
Li Jinze put his other hand on Li Zichen's hand, then slowly took his little hand away, and then held it in his palm.
"Leave the affairs here to me. You are my son and you should not do such things."
Li Zichen's hand was gradually taken away by Li Jinze, and he seemed a little stunned: "Father..."
He had rarely seen Li Jinze look so gentle towards him. How could his father be so strict and disciplined towards him, so how could he be so gentle towards him?
In the end, Li Jinze took the basin filled with hot water from Li Zichen's hand.
There was a basin full of hot water in the basin. Li Zichen struggled to hold the basin with both hands, but Li Jinze held it easily with one hand.
He clasped Li Zichen's hand tightly, and then looked at the servants behind him.
"Go and get a set of clean clothes for the young master."
After receiving the order, the servant nodded repeatedly, "Yes, Master."
After watching the servants running away, Li Jinze temporarily put down the hot water basin in his hand.
Not long after, the servants ran out with a set of clean and brand-new clothes: "Master, clothes!"
Li Jinze took the clothes and then gently took off Li Zichen's wet clothes one by one.
Li Zichen seemed a little shy. He turned around unnaturally: "Father, I will do it myself."
His father had never treated him like this before. He was happy, surprised, shy, and afraid that such hard-won time would pass quickly.
Li Jinze did not stop what he was doing. He took off Li Zichen's clothes one by one, and then slowly put the clean clothes on Li Zichen.
He frowned, and the movements of his hands were a little slow, but more indifferent.
Li Jinze has never done such a thing, and what he is doing now is just doing it according to the memory of Gu Manman dressing Gu Zichen...
