Jiang Wang wrapped in a towel and went to open the door, leaving winding footprints all over the maple-colored wooden floor.

As he pulled the door open, Dachuan jumped back in surprise, "Oh, I was wondering why nobody was here, taking a bath?"

"Sorry, buddy, I was busy last night and forgot," Jiang Wang casually wiped his hair with a towel, pretending to welcome the guest, "So, please come in?"

"No, no need! It's okay, I'll come another day," Dachuan raised the bag of books in his hand, "I'm here to deliver these books. I heard that after you decided to organize the back-to-school season event, the publishing house just released several new editions suitable for the upcoming college entrance exams... Oh, by the way, I heard Teacher Ji is renting with you?"

Boss Jiang sure knows how to live, cutting living costs to the minimum, worth learning from!

"Teacher Ji..." Jiang Wang stopped midway through drying his hair, droplets of water dripping from his shoulder blades, "He's taking a shower."

"Everyone's, everyone's taking a shower."

"Just finished some housework, all sweaty," Jiang Wang took the books, "Do you need to talk to him?"

"Well, I also wanted to show him these books and recommend them as new teaching aids here," Dachuan hurriedly bowed and stepped back, "You two take your time, I'll come back later to bother you again, we'll chat then..."

Jiang Wang closed the door, lifted his hand to remove the towel, and swaggered like an elephant towards the bathroom.

Ji Linqui was lounging lazily in the bathtub, one arm resting on a small table as he read Peng Xingwang's fairy tale book.

He lifted his eyelids at the sound of footsteps. "Walking the bird?"

"You need to let the bird get some fresh air," the man stepped in, splashing water all over the floor again. "How's the bird doing? Is it enjoying its food?"

The latter tossed a bar of soap towards his face, which was deftly caught by a hand, and they both burst into laughter.

The spring breeze was gentle.

One person lay on the left, leisurely reading the fairy tale book, while the other played with the rubber ducks, squinting and listening, occasionally throwing in a dry joke.

It wasn't until the warmth turned into coolness that they finally emerged from the bathroom.

As they dressed, Jiang Wang leaned over and bit Ji Linqui's earlobe.

The latter twitched but didn't move away, turning his head to look at him.

"It's the first time someone's read Cinderella to me," Jiang Wang whispered, "For a moment there, I felt like I was being treated like a princess."

Ji Linqui paused, then folded and rolled the long towel in his hand into a crown, placing it on Jiang Wang's head.

"Now you look even more like one."

The doorbell rang again from outside.

"Boss—! Boss, are you home?"

Jiang Wang grunted, grabbed a pair of big shorts, and went to open the door.

The secretary happened to be renting in the same neighborhood, so it was convenient for her to come over. She knocked on the door and then looked up, "Boss—hey, did you just finish taking a bath?"
