Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 37

Chapter 37: Sweet Torture
Lu Jueyu had already planned to give Li Chenmo a footbath a few days ago, but she needed to prepare the medicine first. Fortunately, the medicine was ready today, and she can finally give him a footbath. Otherwise, his leg muscles may have problems later since he cannot move much.

Li Chenmo wanted to stop her at first, but when she started pressing his acupuncture points, he couldn’t help but let out a low groan. Lu Jueyu stopped when she heard his groan.

She looked up and asked, “Did I hurt you?”

Taking a deep breath to stabilize his beating heart, Li Chenmo said hoarsely, “No, I’m fine. You can continue.”

She nodded, continued to press his acupuncture points, and said, “Bear with it for a while. At first, you may feel uncomfortable and painful, but later you will definitely like it.”

When she was massaging Li Chenmo’s feet, Father Li stood awkwardly outside the door. Hearing his son’s low groan and Lu Jueyu’s soft panting, coupled with these words, an indecent image suddenly appeared in his mind.

As their panting and groaning intensified, Father Li finally turned around and walked quickly back to his room. He couldn’t go on eavesdropping. As inappropriate as it was, they were getting married in five days. So, he will pretend he doesn’t know anything. After all, his son is young and vigorous. For him, having physical needs is a normal thing. What’s more, he has loved this girl for so many years.

Neither Lu Jueyu nor Li Chenmo knew that Father Li had misunderstood them. When the water started to cool down, Lu Jueyu poured hot water again, and continued to massage his legs. Thirty minutes later, she stopped. After drying his feet and calf, she went to the kitchen to wash her hands and throw away the water. When she came back, she had a small jar in her hand.

“I made this ointment myself. It will help relieve your soreness. You take off your clothes, and I will apply it for you.” Lu Jueyu opened the jar and said casually.

Under her gaze, Li Chenmo took off his clothes helplessly. Seeing his naked upper body, Lu Jueyu couldn’t help being stunned. No wonder he is the male lead. He’s in great shape. This is the perfect example of being lean in the clothes and muscular when undressed.

Although she was full of admiration for his figure in her heart, Lu Jueyu’s expression was still calm. She scooped up some ointment, warmed it with the palm of her hand, and applied it to his body. The moment her hand touched his shoulder, Li Chenmo felt a surge of electricity and his whole body trembled. His Adam’s apple moved as he swallowed when he suddenly felt his throat felt dry and his body was burning.

Lu Jueyu didn’t know what kind of sweet torture Li Chenmo was enduring as she concentrated on massaging his shoulders, neck and back. Because he can’t move and can only lie in bed for a long time, Li Chenmo’s muscles are very tense. It took a lot of effort for her to loosen his muscles. After she finished his upper half, she turned to his hands and thighs.

After more than an hour, she finally finished the massage. When she was done, her forehead and back were covered with sweat. She helped him dress and lie down. After confirming that he had covered under the quilt, she said, “Tomorrow we are going to the county seat, you should rest early. I will come tomorrow morning. ”

Li Chenmo held her finger and said, “Jueyu, thank you for your hard work.”

She smiled at him and said, “As you said before, you will become my husband in five days. Is it necessary to say these words to me? Well, I have to go now. Good night, brother Chenmo. ”

“Goodnight.”

Since he felt very comfortable, Li Chenmo fell asleep not long after he touched the pillow.

After Li Chenmo fell asleep, Lu Jueyu blew out the oil lamp, closed the door, and left Li’s house. When she arrived at her house, everyone had finished their dinner and returned to their rooms. She went to the kitchen, put the pots and basket away in the cupboard, and then went back to her room. Just when the door was about to close, she noticed Xiao Yiqing was looking at her with a pair of icy eyes.

Looking at Xiao Yiqing’s eyes, Lu Jueyu was taken aback. According to the novel, the heroine has nothing to do with her. Then why is she looking at her like that? Could it be that the heroine has already met Li Chenmo and fallen in love with him, therefore the heroine has some resentment toward her, the hero’s fiancee?

After thinking about it, Lu Jueyu dismissed the idea. Xiao Yiqing just arrived tonight while Li Chenmo was injured and couldn’t go out. Logically speaking, they should not have met yet.

Lu Jueyu sat on the bed, thinking about the meaning of Xiao Yiqing’s gazes. But after thinking about it for a long time, she still couldn’t find a reasonable explanation. In the end, she just had to put the matter behind her mind for now.

Because she was going to get up early tomorrow, she went into her own space to prepare tomorrow’s breakfast, took a hot bath, and then went to bed.

Early the next morning, Lu Jueyu woke up before sunrise. She went to the kitchen to boil a pot of water while preparing a simple breakfast for the family. She made pumpkin porridge, and steamed buns, and left a jar of meat sauce for them in the kitchen.

When she came out of the kitchen, she saw that Mother Lu had just woken up. Seeing her carrying the bamboo basket, Mother Lu asked, “Jueyu, why did you get up so early today?”

“Mother, Brother Chenmo and I are going to the hospital to check his injuries today. I wanted to tell you and Father yesterday, but when I came back, you were already resting. So, I don’t want to disturb you.” Lu Jueyu said with a smile.
