Chapter 333: Chapter 330 Happy Events
Qin Miaoke came out after changing clothes, her hair still a bit damp and disheveled.
"Why didn’t you blow-dry your hair before coming out?"
"It’s fine, the sun is nice outside today, It’ll dry quickly once I’m out, give me the stuff."
Qin Miaoke spoke to Zhang Hao as if no one else was present, seemingly oblivious to the other man’s existence.
"Let’s go to a different swimming pool tomorrow, I don’t want to come to this one anymore."
"Sure," Zhang Hao agreed readily.
The person behind them heard this and quickly caught up.
"Beauty, I’m sorry, maybe it was my attitude just now that scared you."
"Actually, from the first day you came here, I had already noticed you, and it took me several days."
"To gather the courage to talk to you, you’re rejecting me without even giving it a try, that’s not very nice, is it?"
Qin Miaoke turned her head and glanced down, the man was still wearing a pair of white swim trunks.
"You won’t do, I don’t really like small ones."
The man looked down, the swim trunks were form-fitting.
They were different from men’s shorts.
Just now in the men’s changing room, when Zhang Hao took off his swimming trunks, he realized his "military equipment" was indeed very impressive.
Compared to his own, it seemed almost underdeveloped.
With Qin Miaoke’s comment, he started feeling inferior again.
"Beauty, I... I haven’t even reacted yet, how can you call it small?"
"Moreover, my size has already reached the average level."
Disdain still filled Qin Miaoke’s eyes, "So what if it’s average, is there something wrong with preferring something above average?"
After being berated by Qin Miaoke, the man turned and left.
But Qin Miaoke, as if nothing had happened, continued chatting and laughing with Zhang Hao as they left the swimming pool.
"By the way, next month grandpa is going to have his grand birthday celebration, and as his apprentice, you must be there."
"Elder Qin is quite hale and hearty indeed, I’ll definitely be there on time."
Qin Miaoke added, "In terms of gifts, you’ll need to put some thought into it, but just thought."
"Not necessarily spending a lot of money, We the Qin family have a high status, and we’re not demanding in material aspects."
"There’s one thing though, although grandpa took you as a disciple, he hasn’t taught you some things about the Qin family."
"If something is said on the day of his birthday feast, be prepared mentally."
"Relatives in my family all have their own plans, all eyeing grandpa’s skills, hoping to inherit them soon."
Zhang Hao probably understood the meaning behind Qin Miaoke’s words... "Alright, I got it."
When he got home, Zhang Hao rushed into the bathroom first thing to take a hot shower, washing off the smell of disinfectant from his body.
He scrubbed and massaged his body with soap, and before he could step out of the bathroom, he heard the door open.
He Qianhui came in a rush, holding her stomach.
"What’s the matter?"
"I’ve been holding it in for too long and almost couldn’t hold it anymore, don’t peek."
He Qianhui yanked the shower curtain closed, The thin curtain could obscure the view, but it couldn’t block out sounds.
"Why are you taking a shower so early today?"
"Went swimming, there was a bit of trouble, and I didn’t get to shower there."
"Why would you go learn to swim all of a sudden?" He Qianhui asked, puzzled.
"In a little while, I’m planning to take you on a trip to see the ocean, and I remember you can swim."
He Qianhui responded, She could swim, but that was many years ago.
Back when I was bored at school with my classmates, I suddenly got the urge to learn to swim.
I found a swimming pool and signed up for a few classes, and once I got in the water, I was like a fish.
After just a few classes, I had already grasped the essentials of swimming, but after graduation, I seldom went again.
It’s been such a long time; I’ve even forgotten what it feels like to swim.
"To see the sea, do you even have that much vacation time?"
"Vacation time or not, I have to take someone with me."
He Qianhui chuckled, feeling like Zhang Hao was making empty promises again and deliberately changed the topic.
"What’s for dinner tonight? I bought lots of good food."
"Let’s have beef stew."
"No beef, I bought a bass, how about we steam it?"
"That works."
Zhang Hao was always easygoing when it came to food.
Moreover, He Qianhui was cooking today’s meal, and he, who didn’t have to lift a finger, had no right to ask for anything else.
He Qianhui went to the kitchen and cleaned the bass she had prepared.
She also chopped some scallions and ginger slices, placed the fish on a plate, and put it into the steamer.
After He Qianhui had taken care of everything in the kitchen, Zhang Hao also came out of the bathroom.
Wrapped in a gray towel around his waist, his fine upper body was unabashedly exposed.
"Wearing that at home, aren’t you embarrassed?"
"In this house, isn’t it just you and me? There’s no part of me you haven’t seen."
He Qianhui was somewhat speechless, but felt like Zhang Hao’s words were not without reason.
"Go and clean the scallions for me."
Swimming for an hour every night was also a big physical drain for Zhang Hao.
So much so that these past few days, he hadn’t been able to be affectionate with He Qianhui properly.
Watching him pick the scallions, He Qianhui moved closer to him.
"These past couple of days, you’ve seemed especially tired. Did you do something disgraceful behind my back?"
"How could that be, recently the hospital has been busy, and I have to go swimming at night. The physical exertion makes me inevitably feel tired."
"But I’ve already learned to swim now, so I won’t be going to the swimming pool again anytime soon."
He Qianhui looked at him meaningfully, "Really? Suddenly wanting to swim was strange enough in itself."
"It seems like you have met some beauty at the swimming pool. I’ve heard before that if men start getting in shape and cleaning themselves up,"
"it’s because there’s a woman they fancy on the outside whom they want to impress. So you..."
He Qianhui didn’t seem to be joking when she said this.
Zhang Hao immediately became anxious.
"So what about me? You can’t just make baseless accusations, you need to have evidence before you start pinning things on me."
He Qianhui huffed softly, "Don’t think I don’t know about those young nurses in your hospital, each one beautiful and tender."
"As far as I know, all those nurses are aiming for a department head or attending physician as their partner."
"You’re so young and already the head of Traditional Chinese Medicine; it’s hard to say whether those nurses have ideas about you or not."
"Before, wasn’t that nurse surnamed Lin interested in you? Fortunately, she ended up getting married."
"Now that she’s constrained by marriage, I guess she can rein in her heart."
Seeing He Qianhui talking nonsense, Zhang Hao couldn’t help but admire her imagination.
"Can’t you think less about it? You’re not a worm in my stomach,"
"Don’t you want to go to the sea with me and do something fun?"
