Chapter 721 484: Alps 3

It left Jiangg Ning at a loss for how to refuse.

Even though he was her boyfriend, Chen Yuan had been very restrained with his gaze. He wasn't staring at her as unscrupulously as he had with Jiangg Yao earlier, and Jiangg Ning, without a doubt, appreciated this very much. She had been incredibly shy at first, but during these forty-plus minutes, there had been very few moments that actually made her feel uncomfortable—well, except for now.

He stared at Jiangg Ning's knees, which were pressed lightly together out of shyness. His gaze fell to her soft, fair feet, her toes resting on the smooth, wet floor mat.

It was just that Ningning's feet were truly beautiful. Each toe was so exquisite and slender, the nails perfectly rounded, the top of her foot glowing with a pale luster.

"Let's start with your feet," he said, reaching out to grab her foot.

She jumped in surprise, pulling back reflexively.

"Um... I can do it myself, Chen. I can just give them a quick scrub with one hand."

"No way. You're injured. Of course I should be the one to do this kind of rough, tiring work," Chen Yuan said with mock righteousness, his eyes never actually leaving her feet. "It's a boyfriend's duty. Eheh."

"Then... be gentle," Jiangg Ning said, biting her lip lightly.

"Gentle?"

For a moment, he didn't understand what she meant. He hesitated for half a second before giving in to his instincts, placing his hand under Jiangg Ning's foot and lifting it gently.

He felt a fire ignite within him.

Leaning closer to examine it, Chen Yuan's gaze grew even more heated than before.

'So small, fitting right in his hand. And those dainty, perfect little toes.'

The next second, Jiangg Ning quickly pulled her left foot back.

"N-No, I can't. It's too ticklish, it feels so weird! I should just do it myself," she said, waving her hands emphatically.

"Why?" A hint of disappointment showed in Chen Yuan's eyes.

"Chen, I never told you... but my feet are really sensitive. Do you remember that time you touched them a few times? At your place? I realized it back then. Just one touch and they get all tingly and ticklish. It's like someone blowing hot air into your ear piercing—totally unbearable."

"For real?"

"I wouldn't lie to you," she said, embarrassed.

In reality, Jiangg Ning's whole body was unusually sensitive; it was just her constitution. Especially her feet... and that other place.

Chen Yuan instantly grew even more excited.

"Well, it's not like I can go my whole life without touching them, right?"

"That's true," Ningning murmured, pursing her lips as if she were troubled by it too.

"Let me try again."

To put it bluntly, Ningning was just too gentle and wasn't good at refusing Chen Yuan.

He'd discovered this a long time ago.

Especially when it came to things like this. As long as Chen Yuan was firm with his requests, she couldn't hold out for long before backing down. He wasn't sure if it was because of her extreme shyness or an innate gentleness towards the one she loved.

With that, Chen Yuan once again took hold of Jiangg Ning's foot.

"Actually, I never told you this either, but I really like your feet... You look so beautiful when you wear high heels, I can't help but stare. It's a little perverted, I guess, but it's my little secret."

"Huh?" Jiangg Ning was a little taken aback.

"Have you ever heard of this kind of... um, hobby?"

"Not really."

"That's okay. Everyone has their little secrets. So I'll be honest with you now," Chen Yuan said, gazing at her smooth, tender feet. After a moment, he lowered his head slightly and, under Jiangg Ning's shocked gaze, gently pressed his lips to the top of her foot. "Ningning," he whispered, "I love everything about you."

"They're dirty..." she said, frowning.

"How could they be? You've been washing them for so long."

"But they're still feet. They're for walking on." A traditional girl like Ningning, how could she possibly understand this kind of fetish?

"But they're beautiful."

He worked up some lather in his hands and began to gently scrub her foot, his gaze full of reverence.
