Chapter 572 During the Blizzard 11
Jiang Yang actually found her rather cute. She usually dressed in a more mature style, giving her a unique charm.
He was struck by how different she looked today; she was quite a sight to behold.
Jian Muzi took a few steps and turned around, only to find the person looking at her and smiling.
"What are you laughing at? It's cold outside, let's go inside."
"Okay, I'm here." Jiang Yang didn't explain the involuntary joy he felt just looking at her.
Once inside, Jian Muzi took the bathrobe and swimsuit she had specially prepared from him.
Since she was going to prepare a swimsuit anyway, she simply brought her own outerwear, which was cleaner that way.
Upon arriving at the reserved sauna, the two went to change their clothes separately.
Jiang Yang picked up the bag and turned to go to the changing room. After he took off his clothes,
She pulled out the swim trunks from the bag, raised an eyebrow, and wondered if she had bought them in advance.
He put on his swimming trunks, then his bathrobe, opened the door, and went into the sauna to wait for others.
Over here, Jian Muzi changed into her swimsuit and bathrobe, and then entered the sauna room.
Jiang Yang, who was sitting inside, looked up when she came in. Jian Muzi walked over and sat down opposite him.
She looked around. The house was neither too big nor too small. The house and ceiling were completely covered with wood, and there were special ventilation vents.
Four perfectly fitted wooden benches were placed against the wall, each with a small wooden table on it.
One of the walls even has a transparent window offering a view of the snow outside, but this doesn't affect the indoor temperature at all.
"We'll steam for about twenty minutes, and then we can take an ice bath in the icy lake outside."
As she was thinking about her swim trunks, Jiang Yang first nodded in agreement with her suggestion, then casually asked, "Have you been here before? Do you often go to the sauna?"
"I've never been here before, but I've steamed food at a friend's house."
Aino's house has a sauna, and the original owner was often brought home by her to take saunas together, which she said was good for health, and the people here also liked it.
Jiang Yang, seemingly lost in thought, casually asked, "Friends around here? Are they men?"
“She’s a local girl.” After saying that, she realized what she meant and looked at him teasingly: “What are you thinking?”
"It's nothing, I just thought it would be hard to buy swimsuits and trunks in winter, so you prepared them in advance, right?"
Jian Muzhi's eyes were filled with the question, "Do you think I believe you?"
Jiang Yang couldn't help but break his composure and laughed out loud, saying, "Okay, I was just overthinking it."
"You think these swim trunks weren't made for you?"
She didn't actually buy it for him, since it was bought in the previous world.
I have prepared men's clothing in my space; when I bought it, I didn't specifically prepare it for anyone.
Jiang Yang: "No, it's just that the swim trunks sparked some curiosity about whether you have any close female friends."
What he really wanted to ask was whether there were any other suitors competing with him.
Thinking of this, he chuckled to himself, realizing that matters of the heart are indeed mysterious, easily causing people to overthink and lose control of their emotions.
He's only in his early twenties, and it's understandable that he might be a little immature when he meets someone he falls for at first sight.
Jian Muzi saw through his thoughts and said jokingly, "Aren't you just a male friend of the opposite sex with whom I'm getting closer and closer?"
"Yes, although I'd rather be your boyfriend," Jiang Yang said with a smile.
Knowing he couldn't rush her into answering, he took a bottle of water, unscrewed it, and handed it to her: "It's been steaming for about ten minutes, have some water."
Jian Muzi, having come to understand his high emotional intelligence, took the water and said, "Thank you."
A dozen minutes later, the two opened a door by the window, and the cold air outside instantly rushed in.
Jiang Yang stood in the doorway, shielding her from the wind: "Aren't you cold?"
"It's not cold. Just a few steps down the stairs and we'll reach the frozen lake. Let's go there."
"It's hard to walk on the snow in flip-flops, let me help you," Jiang Yang said, extending his hand to her.
Jian Muzhi didn't refuse; as soon as she reached out and placed her hand on his, his warm, large hand grasped her tightly.
She looked up and met his smiling eyes.
Jiang Yang was too embarrassed to say that he was happy that she hadn't rejected him.
They'd easily catch a cold standing here in the wind, so he pulled them forward.
They arrived at their destination not far after they had walked.
This is a man-made circular ice lake, not very big, just enough to be used independently by each sauna room.
Jiang Yang turned around: "I'll go down first, then I'll come back to help you."
Jian Muzi nodded, watching him take off his bathrobe, revealing his broad shoulders, narrow waist, and well-defined muscles.
Jiang Yang didn't hesitate and went into the water. He stood in the water, holding onto the edge, and looked up at Jian Muzi: "It's okay, you can come down now. It's a bit cold, so be prepared."
He was startled when he came down; it was truly a clash of ice and fire, quite thrilling, but he's gotten used to it now.
Jian Muzi nodded. She took off her bathrobe, revealing a black one-piece swimsuit underneath. The contrast between black and white made her skin look exceptionally white.
Her slender waist, straight and long legs, and perfectly curvaceous figure made Jiang Yang slightly avert his gaze, not daring to look at her any longer.
He reached out a hand to help her down, and Jian Muzhi was gently supported as soon as she entered the water: "I'll let go slowly, can you hold on steady?"
He was worrying too much about himself. Jian Muzi smiled and said, "It's okay, I can manage."
She's not that fragile; she could have easily jumped in.
Seeing that she was very calm, Jiang Yang let go of her hand and casually asked, "Is it cold?"
"Fortunately."
It was a bit cold when I first got into the water, but I got used to the temperature of the icy lake after a while.
After soaking for about ten minutes, the two went into the sauna, and then soaked in the ice lake.
The second time was different. Jian Muzhi let loose and jumped into the frozen lake.
Jiang Yang was startled by her sudden action and jumped down after her.
Just as Jian Muzhi was about to surface in the water, someone grabbed her and pulled her to the side.
"You're pretty bold, jumping in without even saying hello."
She wiped the water off her face: "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."
It was clear she could swim, and Jiang Yang knew he was just being overly concerned.
The two were still embracing, their bodies separated only by a thin swimsuit.
Even though we were in the icy lake, we could still feel each other's faint warmth.
A strand of wet hair clung to her cheek, her long eyelashes were damp with water, and her lips were moist and alluring, drawing his gaze involuntarily to them.
Jiang Yang's Adam's apple bobbed slightly, and he shifted his gaze, releasing the person slightly: "Let's go to the side first."
Jian Muzhi nodded, swam to the side, held onto the edge with one hand, and floated in the water.
After the sauna, the two returned to the city center and had dinner at a Chinese restaurant.
