In Her Bedroom

The dishes were done in record time, and Xue Ning could still hear the TV from the living room. The soap opera Night Market Lovers was playing, so she knew her family wouldn't be paying much attention to anything else.

"Are you going to shower now?" Xue Ning asked.

"Probably a good idea to do it now," Jingwei said, taking a cursory look outside at how her family was staring riveted at the TV. "I don't want to fight with them for the shower. But -" Jingwei frowned, suddenly remembering something important. "I left my toiletries at the motel! I'll have to go back -"

"No need," Xue Ning cut him off quickly. "You can just use some of our toiletries! I'll get you a towel. As long as you're not using half a bottle of shampoo and shower gel, it's fine."

"But what am I going to wear?"

"Nothing." Xue Ning blurted out, and Jingwei raised a confused eyebrow before a smirk grew on his face.
