"Click," the front door of Liu Xin’an’s house swung open.
At that moment, Liu Xin’an, who was editing a video, didn’t hear the sound of the door, but he did hear a loud "Liu Xin’an" that followed.
The only person who could enter his place so freely was one, and though he was in a burst of inspiration, he didn’t want to break his flow of work. So, he saved his progress and quickly got up to leave his streaming room.
"You’re here?"
Seeing Bae Juhyun in her sky-blue jeans paired with a black turtleneck sweater, Liu Xin’an broke into a delighted smile.
Hadn’t he not seen her for two whole days?
With nostalgia enhancing his feelings, he stretched out his arms and embraced the girl who was running toward him with a laugh.
After re-experiencing the delightful embrace that soothed both body and soul, Liu Xin’an gently set the still off-ground Bae Juhyun back onto the floor.
After all, there was the height difference.
"Wait for me a bit, I still have some work to do, make yourself at home for now."
This statement made Juhyun’s smile freeze slightly, and then with a scrunch of her nose in annoyance, she slapped his forehead before obediently heading to sit on the couch.
Then, like shooing away a child, Juhyun waved at Liu Xin’an.
"Go on, go, get back to your work."
Liu Xin’an still felt a bit guilty, even though it was their first encounter after being separate for two days since they’d been together, and from the hug earlier, he could acutely sense Juhyun’s longing for him wasn’t any less than his...
Now to just put her aside like that...
Liu Xin’an approached the couch where Juhyun was sitting, and then under her somewhat puzzled gaze, he slowly bent down.
Realizing what this guy was about to do, Juhyun blocked his forehead with her hand.
"What are you trying to do?"
Liu Xin’an blinked awkwardly, looked up stealthily, flashed a smile at Juhyun, and quickly headed back to his streaming room.
The work was more important; a failed attempt at stealing a kiss was just that, a failure.
Luckily, he had already edited quite a portion of the video before Juhyun arrived.
When someone is focused, it is hard to notice the passage of time.
An hour unknowingly passed, and Liu Xin’an finally pulled himself out of his work mode.
The video was ready. All that was left was to proofread it once, and if there were no issues, to just publish it.
The upcoming update was about a Cyberpunk 2077 live-play, and though it was tough, money still had to be made.
Plus, after many days of maintenance, the PC version now had significantly fewer bugs.
At least it was playable now.
Proofreading wasn’t urgent; it could be done right before sleep. For him, the most important thing now was the person who had arrived at his house more than an hour ago.
Liu Xin’an hurriedly went out, and upon seeing Juhyun hugging a pillow and watching television on the couch, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Sorry for making you wait, it was a critical period, and losing my train of thought would have been troublesome."
"Hmph."
Although she could understand and feel why Liu Xin’an had left her alone for over an hour, it didn’t mean she would smile and say it was okay.
What a joke! They hadn’t seen each other for two days!
She had planned today to just sleep for a while in Liu Xin’an’s arms, and now, this time... discounting meal times, the remaining time just wasn’t enough for a nap.
And tomorrow she had to get up early for work.
Of course, knowing he was at fault, Liu Xin’an didn’t get upset because of Juhyun’s dissatisfaction. He sat next to Juhyun and, with a bit of pleasing intention, gently pinched her fragrant shoulders.
She hadn’t spared complaining to him through text about how tired she was.
"What, trying to please me this way?"
The perfectly pressured massage had Juhyun comfortably squinting her eyes, though her mouth was much harder than her shoulders.
"Isn’t it tough on our Juhyun? What do you mean ’trying to please?’ This is something a boyfriend should do."
"Yeah right, leaving your girlfriend alone on the cold living room couch for over an hour!"
The sharp retort made Liu Xin’an smile awkwardly, and he massaged with even more dedication.
"Alright, alright, stop it; it’s not that sore anymore."
Juhyun sat up straight, moved her shoulders around, and signalled Liu Xin’an that he could stop.
Liu Xin’an then let go, a habit bringing Juhyun into his embrace.
It was just a small sarcastic airing of frustration, Juhyun wasn’t really angry.
Moreover, since Liu Xin’an had attentively massaged her for so long, she had long since let go of that small matter.
Comfortably leaning into Liu Xin’an’s embrace, she casually grabbed one of his large hands.
It was still that distinctively jointed large hand which could completely envelop hers compared to her smaller one.
Just looking at these hands, anyone would believe Liu Xin’an played the piano or basketball.
"Even if you have to live stream every day, you can’t sit in front of the computer all the time, you know?"
"Yes, I know, don’t worry."
Liu Xin’an let her play with his hand, smiled in response, and then took out his cellphone from his pocket with his other hand.
"Have you eaten dinner yet?"
"Not yet, I was waiting to eat with you. What are we having today?"
"Uh... how about we go out? There seems to be a nice place nearby, and it’s not too late yet, so I guess it’s also not too..."
"Ah? No, I’m too tired; I don’t want to move."
Bae Juhyun flatly refused.
Go out to eat? What a joke!
"Right, but you should be able to relax a bit after these busy days."
Liu Xin’an encased her restless small hand with his larger one, his slender fingers finding the delicate crevices of her fingers, intertwining until they were locked together.
A smile spread across Bae Juhyun’s face, as if the warmth from Liu Xin’an’s palm could transfer directly to her heart.
She took out her phone, captured the image of their interlocked fingers, and then excitedly turned to look at Liu Xin’an.
"How about using this as the phone wallpaper?"
"Sure, send it to me."
"Hmm... Send it to you; give me the phone."
To make it easier for Bae Juhyun, Liu Xin’an considerately changed his phone’s language setting to one that Bae Juhyun could understand.
So Bae Juhyun directly took Liu Xin’an’s phone and changed both the wallpaper and the lock screen.
Then, she turned off Liu Xin’an’s phone but quickly tapped the screen lightly.
Seeing the expected wallpaper of their interlocked fingers light up, Bae Juhyun felt a sweet satisfaction.
"Although I really want to spend more time at home with you, I’ll probably be very busy until the New Year."
"What kind of company is that, still squeezing you like this when it’s almost New Year!"
"Don’t say that; I’m already grateful to have the job opportunity."
Bae Juhyun’s words left Liu Xin’an somewhat dumbfounded. His girlfriend hadn’t been brainwashed by those capitalists, had she?
This can’t go on!
He assertively put his hand on Bae Juhyun’s shoulder and proudly said, "If it’s too hard, just quit. I’ll take care of you!"
"... Chauvinist much? I hate that kind of stuff, Liu Xin’an!"
Bae Juhyun always believed that a woman should be able to support herself. What kind of woman relies on a man?
That’s why she never objected to working. If not for the current break, she’d probably be busy every day without rest.
"I’m not, I just don’t want you to suffer," Liu Xin’an nobly defended himself, not considering himself a chauvinist at all.
"Hmm, you better be."
Bae Juhyun hummed lightly, shifting her body slightly so that she could lean more comfortably against Liu Xin’an.
The hand that was interlocked with Liu Xin’an’s remained unloosened. She raised it and placed both on her midriff, smiling contentedly, "Okay, let me lean on you for a while, and if I fall asleep, don’t wake me up."
"If you’re really tired, go sleep in the room."
"No, this is perfect."
Liu Xin’an looked at Bae Juhyun’s beautiful profile and her lovely black hair, guessing the reason for her insistence after a moment’s thought.
He coughed and said, "If you want to lean on me, I can accompany you to the room."
Boy, that startled Bae Juhyun. She reflexively turned her head to look at Liu Xin’an, her eyes conveying danger that made his hairs stand on end.
"Don’t get me wrong, I’m just playing the role of a ’pillow’ here, won’t do anything weird."
"Nice try, I won’t believe you’re a decent guy anymore, Liu Xin’an!"
This guy had a history, and she could feel her left cheek burning.
Yes, that was where he had stolen a kiss last time.
And it had lasted so long! That bad man!
