Chapter 275 - 275 276 Repaying Tenfold (5)_1
?Chapter 275: Chapter 276: Repaying Tenfold (5)_1 Chapter 275: Chapter 276: Repaying Tenfold (5)_1 Jing Haohao abruptly snapped back to reality and instinctively withdrew her feet from Liang Chen’s hands.
She placed her mud-coated feet in the basin of water, muddying its clarity. When she suddenly pulled her feet out, water splashed everywhere, sprinkling on Liang Chen’s face and his shirt.
His snow-white shirt quickly got stained with the muddy water.
Jing Haohao moved her lips uneasily. Subconsciously, she assumed that Liang Chen would be angry. To her surprise, however, Chen behaved as if nothing had happened, he nonchalantly reached out again, grabbed her feet, and put them back into the basin. His actions may have appeared rough, but only Jing Haohao could keenly feel how tender his grip was.
Liang Chen’s head was lowered as he squatted in front of the basin, his hands submerged in the muddy water, gently scrubbing Jing Haohao’s feet.
When Jing Haohao’s feet first sank into the mud, it wasn’t unpleasant but once she came ashore and the wind blew, the water in the mud quickly froze, leaving her feet numb with cold.
Now, the warm water and Liang Chen’s large hands enveloped her feet, instantly restoring sensation. A warmth flowed from his palm, along her foot, all the way to the softest part of her left chest.
Jing Haohao bit her lower lip, her head lowered, she intently watched Liang Chen.
He was entirely focused on his task. The bright lights from the production team illuminated his face, allowing her to clearly see the flecks of mud on his face from the splash when she pulled her foot back- it did nothing to diminish his striking beauty.
Jing Haohao had never observed Liang Chen so closely before. Looking carefully now, she found his features, whether individually or in combination, to be singularly breathtaking.
Ever since Jing Haohao was able to live independently, no one had ever washed her feet – she never even imagined someone would.
Yet here was a man, who in everyone’s eyes was as lofty as the Son of Heaven, completely disregarding his image and status, half kneeling in front of her, washing her feet before an audience.
An indescribable emotion suddenly welled up in Jing Haohao’s heart. Strange and unfamiliar, it was a sensation she had never experienced before in her life.
Halfway through, Liang Chen had someone bring a fresh basin of water and washed Jing Haohao’s feet again. Once they were clean, he dried her feet with a towel and personally put her shoes on.
Once Liang Chen had completed this series of actions, Jing Haohao sat dazedly on the stool, as if she was in a stupor.
Liang Chen slowly stood up, fixing his crumpled clothes. After sweeping a glance over the stunned faces around him, he finally felt a hint of satisfaction.
Starting from now, he didn’t believe that they would dare to disrespect the woman he had humbly washed the feet of!
Just as Liang Chen was about to turn around and retrieve his jacket from the director, Jing Haohao, who had been sitting on the stool, suddenly shot up as if electrified and reached out to grab his hand.
A flash of joy passed through Liang Chen’s heart. He whirled around, his eyes shining brightly as he looked at Jing Haohao, and with an unprecedented gentleness, he asked, “What’s wrong…?”
Before he could finish his sentence, his hand reached out to cradle Jing Haohao’s chin. He tilted her face towards him and examined it for a moment, then asked in a low voice, “Who hit you?”
