Leng Muyan planned to stay up all night binge-watching an anime, but her head kept unconsciously turning to the side, where she would watch Xiao Qingchi working with her head down before quietly leaving.
"What's wrong? Is my working here bothering you?" Xiao Qingchi had noticed long ago. She closed her laptop, walked over, crouched gently in front of the girl, and affectionately ruffled Leng Muyan's hair, her eyes full of warmth.
"Not really."
"I just don't understand why you don't go work in the study next door. The TV is pretty loud when I watch it. It might disturb you."
Xiao Qingchi's hand paused. Then she picked up an anime body pillow from beside her and gently covered Leng Muyan's face with it.
"What are you doing?"
"It's simple. You want to see me, and I can't bear to let you out of my sight. That's all."
"Mmph... why are you covering my face?"
"Because I'm afraid you'll hear that and get embarrassed!" Xiao Qingchi's smile remained soft. "As the bodyguard and boyfriend of the young lady of the Leng family, it's my duty to look after my charge and girlfriend's feelings at all times!"
Unwilling to lose, Leng Muyan tossed the pillow aside.
"Have you forgotten what you did when we first met? You didn't care about my feelings at all."
"Of course not!"
"It's precisely because we missed our chance before that I have to make up for it now! Otherwise, even a lifetime won't be enough."
