After ONS: Trapped by the Cunning Professor

Chapter 742 -s 722-724: My Wife Feels Sorry for Me

"Mmm..." Lou Xi was currently lying on the chaise lounge, enjoying the moxibustion Qin Mobai mentioned.

After warming up his hands, the man applied essential oil to Lou Xi’s back and began massaging it with his large palms.

Qin Mobai’s hands were wide and strong, and after intentionally warming them up, they felt like a small furnace.

Qin Mobai focused on massaging Lou Xi’s lower back and waist, his scorching palms skillfully working to relieve her tension.

"Does it feel good?" Qin Mobai suddenly leaned beside Lou Xi’s ear to ask her.

"Mm." It did feel very good. The area around her waist seemed to warm up, and the exhaustion throughout her body disappeared under his heated palms. "How long have you been learning? Your technique seems very professional."

Of course, Lou Xi hadn’t experienced how actual masters performed massages, but Qin Mobai was definitely a high disciple already.

"I only serve my wife." Qin Mobai spoke while massaging firmly so the essential oil would penetrate the skin.

There was only one floor lamp on in the room, dimly lit.

Amid Qin Mobai’s increasingly firm massage, sleepiness came upon Lou Xi, slowing her thoughts.

She was too sleepy to open her eyes.

Lou Xi seemed to hear someone talking, and unsure why, her body’s temperature gradually rose, causing some discomfort. The air was filled with a faint medicinal oil smell, not pungent, even carrying a subtle fragrance, making Lou Xi’s body very comfortable, completely relaxed.

In the dimly lit environment, she slightly opened her eyes and saw Qin Mobai’s magnified face, close at hand. Even if the man’s face were magnified a hundredfold, it would still be exceptionally handsome, making one want to look again after a glance, wanting to keep looking...

She leaned against Qin Mobai’s chest; his gunshot wound was healed, but a permanent scar remained on the left side of his chest, left from the bullet removal.

She felt a bit heartbroken, gently rubbing it.

"Does it still hurt?" She looked up and asked Qin Mobai.

Qin Mobai positioned Lou Xi’s hand on his chest, using her soft palm to rub his scar.

"It doesn’t hurt anymore."

"But it left a scar..."

"Do you think it’s ugly?" Qin Mobai asked, "If you think it’s ugly, I’ll go have it removed."

"No, I think... it’s cool." Of course, Lou Xi didn’t want Qin Mobai to remove it because she thought it was ugly; she didn’t want him to suffer a second time. "Were those swordsmen in ancient times all comparing who had more scars?"

"So my wife likes that kind of man?"

"No way!" Okay, that kind of rugged wild man was entirely not Lou Xi’s type; Qin Mobai, well-dressed in a suit, was gentle and elegant.

"I know my wife likes me the most; I understand your feelings."

In terms of shamelessness, Qin Mobai would be second to none.

"Alright, alright, I like you the most!"

...

Elsewhere, the atmosphere was far from harmonious. Bai Lu felt there was a touch of tragic inevitability, believing the relationship between her and Lu Li was fragile, fragile enough that any minor disagreement could destroy it.

But he did not. "You are mine, for life."

"Lu Li, you bastard!" She yelled, reaching out to hit him.

Bai Lu cried, saying that this Lu Li was a stranger, not the one she liked; she wanted that gentleman Lu Li back, not this devilish man.
