Water rushed into the bathtub, and warmth gradually spread through the bathroom. Eileen sat on the washing machine beside it with her cheeks propped in both hands, looking a little bored from waiting.
Yu Sheng reached into the bathtub to test the water temperature, then turned up the hot water a little more—anyway, this doll wasn't afraid of being scalded.
"I want to use the shower too!" Eileen suddenly shouted from behind him.
"Can you even reach it?" Yu Sheng turned and glanced at her. "You'd struggle just holding the showerhead with both hands, and you'd need a ladder to turn the valve. Just soak in the bathtub like a good girl. Besides, seriously, you can swim in here. Ordinary people don't get that kind of experience when they take a bath..."
"It isn't like I chose to grow this tall!" Eileen immediately got angry. "If you're so capable, make me a body that's one meter sixty-seven!"
Yu Sheng didn't respond at all. He was already used to this doll's constant muttering.
Eileen didn't care whether Yu Sheng answered her, either. She quickly came up with another request. "Then get me a smaller showerhead, the kind used to bathe children. And install an extra valve near the floor. Set up one of those in the shower for me. It won't cost much..."
"One day, one day," Yu Sheng said perfunctorily. He stood up and looked at Eileen. "The tub's ready. Get in. I hung your towel on the wall beside it."
"Got it." Eileen waved impatiently, jumped down from the washing machine, then struggled up to the edge of the bathtub. "I'm taking a bath now. Out, out—"
Yu Sheng casually flicked the little doll on the forehead, then left the bathroom. He soon heard running water from the kitchen.
