Now it seemed that might not be the case at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching the beautiful nurse leave, Xia Weibao was somewhat puzzled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wasn’t he supposed to clean her? Why was he leaving?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was just that she was too tired, her throat ached, and she couldn’t ask anyone to stay.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although the illness was feigned, all the symptoms were real, albeit harmless to her body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So she truly was exhausted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, the sound of water came from the side. Xia Weibao turned her head and saw Lu Hualiang’s supremely noble hands wringing out a towel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His fingers were long and slender, with well-defined knuckles that exuded aristocracy. The action of wringing out the towel was elegant and pleasing to the eye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, that was not the point.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The point was, why the hell are you wringing that towel!!!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What are you doing?” Xia Weibao looked at him warily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Hualiang, ever so serious, held the towel and looked at her directly, “The doctor said to help you with a body wipe for physical cooling.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His upright expression suggested that he was merely following the doctor’s orders, certainly harboring no unseemly thoughts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, even with such a righteous expression, the words he uttered made Xia Weibao’s face burn with embarrassment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You shameless man!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Damn it, she was almost too angry to keep up the pretense of being ill!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I am only following the doctor’s instructions to help you cool down. How is that shameless?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or is it that you want me to do something else to you?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xia Weibao’s face turned redder, calling him a rogue!!!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let the nurse come back in.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’re my wife, how can I let others see your body?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So if not others, you’re saying you should see it?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Of course.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xia Weibao, “…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shit!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since when did this man have such thick skin!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You rogue, get out!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We’re husband and wife.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Implying that for him to look at her was perfectly justifiable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s a sham marriage; we’ll divorce soon.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That matter again!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every time she brought up the contract marriage, it made Lu Hualiang regret his past decisions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he had known that one day he would fall for her, he would not have played such a fool then.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He pressed the towel against her forehead, cooling the head first to prevent her from becoming foolish from fever.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he stood up, braced his hands on either side of her, and leaned down towards her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stared at her face from a close distance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His nose was almost touching hers, and he said with a half-smile, “If I remember correctly, my wife, our divorce agreement only mentions divorcing after a year, not that we can’t fulfill our marital duties within this year, right?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xia Weibao thought back and then realized in frustration — it really didn’t say anything about that!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Damn it, she was at a huge loss!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As she saw Lu Hualiang’s gaze grow more and more dangerous, she started to panic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She struggled to get away, but his damn medicine was too strong; she was completely weak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She couldn’t escape even if she wanted to.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Lu Hualiang decided to force the issue, she wouldn’t be able to resist…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing her eyes darting around like a frightened deer and her disordered heartbeat, Lu Hualiang’s eyes slowly brightened with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He lowered his head and pecked her lips lightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he didn’t pull away, instead gently rubbing against them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her lips were soft, incredibly enticing.\u003C\u002Fp>",736,"2026-06-06T16:21:59.440Z",1,"novelbin.me","950d207ed3a8dd258ec08ddc189c984b8904253f8da265d92678c77e41e4ec8b","plagued-by-bad-reviews-but-the-top-actress-chapter-256","plagued-by-bad-reviews-but-the-top-actress-chapter-254",1766,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fplagued-by-bad-reviews-but-the-top-actress-cover.jpg"]
