Chapter 223 Petal Bath

Chapter 223 Petal Bath

When Bai Ke passed by Tian Xin, he stopped out of courtesy. After all, his father and the sect leader were watching from behind, and the other party was Ling Xin'er's master.

So he briefly said goodbye to Tian Xin and strode out.

Tian Xin, sitting to the side, had her head down, looking completely lost. Her infatuated glances at Bai Yan earlier must have been noticed by her senior brother and Bai Ke.

In fact, her fondness for Baiyan had already spread throughout Tiance Palace, but so many years had passed, and she herself was already quite old.

She was caught spying on the other person without even realizing it, especially in front of Bai Ke, which was incredibly embarrassing.

If it weren't for the sect leader's reminder, I don't know how long they would have stared at me in this infatuated state.

Therefore, Tian Xin was feeling very uneasy at the moment. She didn't know if Bai Ke would tell Bai Yan about her spying on him earlier. What if Bai Yan found out and kept his distance from her even more?

Just as Tian Xin was lost in thought, Bai Ke came to say goodbye. She wasn't in the mood to say anything, so she just mumbled an agreement to indicate that she understood.

However, Tian Xin was overthinking things this time; Bai Ke had absolutely no interest in gossiping about her with his father.

Someone like Bai Ke, who considers himself a seasoned player in the dating scene, would never stoop to joking about other people's feelings, even though he didn't have a very good impression of his Uncle Tian Xin.

Back at Chijie Cliff, Bai Ke shouted as soon as he reached the entrance, "Ah Can, Ah Can! Your young master is back! Come out and greet me!" He strode forward as he spoke.

A moment later, Ah-Can rushed out of his room and ran straight to Bai-Ke, his face beaming with joy.

"Young Master, you're finally back! Ah Can missed you so much!" With that, Ah Can ran over and gave Bai Ke a big bear hug.

Bai Ke was caught off guard and had no defenses when Ah Can, such a big guy, flew over and hugged him tightly. He felt like Ah Can was going to cause him internal injuries.

But when he tried to push the large body off him, he found he couldn't budge it no matter how hard he tried. "This won't do; I'm going to suffocate from his grip," Bai Ke thought. "I've got it!"

So, Bai Ke gave A-Can, who was hugging him, a hard flick on the head! A-Can cried out in pain and finally let go.

"Young Master, what are you doing? You hit my head again as soon as you came back. Ah Can missed you terribly after you left! Honestly!"

Ah-Can, covering his head, looked at Bai Ke with a wronged expression.

"Come on! You're so big, you hugged me so tightly, I couldn't pry you off no matter what I did, so I had to use some drastic measures! You almost strangled me to death!"

Bai Ke, clutching his chest to catch his breath, said to A-Can in an annoyed tone.

"Uh...hehehe, young master, Ah-Can was reckless! Ah-Can didn't expect it to be because of this. I'm apologizing to you!"

As he spoke, Ah-Can changed his previous aggrieved look and looked at Bai Ke with an embarrassed and guilty smile.

"Alright, alright, let's go back first. Quickly boil some hot water and prepare some clean clothes for me. I want to take a nice, comfortable bath and then have a good night's sleep!"

"This period has really exhausted me. I'm going to rest properly today. Unless it's my father or the sect leader, I won't acknowledge anyone who comes. Don't wake me up, understand?"

"Okay! Ah-chan understands!" he said, leading the way so that Bai Ke could go back to his room first.

As soon as he entered the house, Bai Ke seemed to remember something. "Oh, right! While I was out, did anyone come looking for me?"

"Young Master, you must be exhausted. Have you forgotten that the disciples of Tian Ce Palace all know that you went out for training this time?"

"Who would come looking for you here if they needed anything? But young master, it was Miss Xin'er who came here several times to ask about you since you hadn't returned after being gone for so long. No one else did."

"Yes, it's alright. I already went to see Xin'er after I got back. I just came back from Tianxiu Peak!"

"Ah Can, I'm not going to say anything more. Hurry up and boil some water for me. I'm going to lie down for a while. Call me when it's ready!" With that, Bai Ke couldn't wait to walk to the bed.

"Alright, I'll be right there, young master, please wait a moment!"

"Okay, go ahead!" With a roll over, Bai Ke lay down on the bed and couldn't help but let out a comfortable groan.

"It's so wonderful, I'm finally back!" Bai Ke murmured softly as he lay on his side on the bed with his eyes closed.

Fifteen minutes later, just as Bai Ke was drifting off to sleep, he suddenly heard A-Can's voice in his ear, "Young Master? Young Master! The bath water is ready, get up and take a bath!"

When Bai Ke heard A-Can call him, he grumbled twice in dissatisfaction, then turned over while still clutching the blanket. After a moment of hysteria, he finally came to his senses and got up to walk towards the bathroom.

However, once inside, Bai Ke was stunned by the sight before him. Who the hell had scattered flower petals in the bathwater?

If word got out that he, a dignified seven-foot-tall man, bathed in flower petals, his image would be completely ruined.

At this moment, Bai Ke felt like he was about to grind his back teeth to powder. "Ah Can! Come here!" Bai Ke shouted at Ah Can, who was outside getting him clean clothes.

When Ah-Can heard Bai Ke calling him, he ran in, "Young Master, what's wrong?"

"Explain to me the flower petals in this bathwater..."

"Oh~ So you're asking about these flower petals, young master?" A-Can interrupted Bai Ke before he could finish speaking.

"Young Master, didn't you just say you've been feeling tired lately? Ah Can was thinking of helping you relax."

I remember someone telling me that taking a hot bath with flower petals is the best way to relieve fatigue, and it will also help you sleep more soundly when you go to bed later!

"How about it? Young Master, were you surprised? Were you touched by Ah-Can's thoughtfulness?"

Bai Ke remained blankly watching A-Can's excited and arrogant expression, seeking praise. For some reason, the words of reprimand he was about to utter suddenly wouldn't come out.

Seeing that his young master hadn't said anything, Ah Can assumed that he was truly moved by her, and said with an embarrassed look, "Young master, it's alright, don't look so touched by me."

Ah-Can felt that as long as he could help the young master, no matter how insignificant it was, he would be very happy!

Hearing the man's simple tone and seeing his sincere eyes, Bai Ke could only force a smile and nod.

Ugh! This feeling of wanting to get angry but not being able to, and having to hold it in, is really awful!
