On one side, Ye Jun was happily prattling away with Azalea and on the other side, Ye Jie held Xu y’s hand in his own and yanked her towards himself.
They stood facing each other with Ye Jie’s hands intertwined behind her back and Xu y’s hand sprawled on his chest. Ye Jie peered into her eyes and inquired, "Did you like the surprise?"
"I love it," she rejoined with her head elevated a bit to gaze into his eyes. They kept staring into each other’s eyes while the whole world went into obscurity omitting only these two behind. "I need to freshen up." Xu y said, a little breathlessly.
"Okay..." Ye Jie replied.
"Let go," she demanded but didn’t try to move.
"I didn’t stop you." He answered.
Xu y fixed him a look playfully and said, "If you won’t lift your hands from my body, how will I go?"
Ye Jie didn’t move, he didn’t intend on doing it either. "That’s for you to figure out."
"Huh? How can I figure that out?" Xu y adorably pouted and Ye Jis dipped his head further to leave a lingering kiss at her pouted lips taking her by surprise.
"May I suggest a solution?" Ye Jie offered while touching her forehead with his own. Xu y approved and Ye Jie said in a whisper, "I can accompany you in the shower." Xu y’s mouth opened wide while her eyes were as big as saucers. Heat tingled through her body from the tip of her toes to the tip of ears. "That way, I won’t have to leave your body and you’ll also get to freshen up. It’ll be a win-win situation for both of us."
Xu y punched Ye Jie chest with her small fists making him wince. "Ouch!"
Xu y imdiately got anxious. "Ah Jie, did it hurt?" Ye Jie opened his eyes to look at her worried face and shook his head.
"I’m not that weak." Xu y heaved a sigh of relief.
"Stop ssing around for no reason." Xu y glared at his again making his smile brightly. "On a serious note, let go. I’ve to freshen up and then I’ll make sothing for dinner."
"You don’t have to do anything. I know how much tired you are and that’s why I asked NaNa to make the dinner. She’s in the kitchen taking care of everything." Ye Jie inford her patiently.
Xu y lted once again at his consideration. "Fine. But I still have to change out of my clothes."
"But baby, I’m not even holding you." When Ye Jie said it, that’s when Xu y noticed that Ye Jie’s hands were not on her body anymore. She was herself not moving away.
Feeling embarrassed, Xu y tried to walk away but Ye Jie held her wrist and pulled her back towards himself. When her back touched his chest, he lowered his face towards her ear and said, "The offer still stands. Let accompany you, it’ll be a lot more fun. You know, the count of two makes a perfect couple. And a perfect couple makes a perfect relationship like us."
"Ah Jie!" Xu y wanted to raise her voice but her voice ca out like a needy person, beseeching him. Xu y squird to loosen his grip and ran upstairs not looking back at all.
Ye Jie bit his bottom lip and cursed, "Fu*k!" before raking his fingers through his hair with exasperation.
In the world that was left in obscurity by Ye Jie and Xu y, Azalea and Ye Jun were looking at them with indescribable expressions.
"What is this strange feeling?" Azalea asked in a low voice with a frown on her face and an itch in her heart.
"This is what the thin air feels around us," Ye Jun started while Azalea’s frown grew deeper. "Snubbed... Neglected..."
"Oh!" Azalea said in realization. "So, this is how being ostracized feels like." She nodded her head in understanding and asked, "Does this happen often?"
Ye Jun gave a look to Azalea that said, ’Are you crazy?! I’ve even lost the count now!’ and sighed, "This is the story of every single mont of every single day." After a pause, he went on, "They both can make you eat dog food even when they are together. So, take my advice and be careful otherwise by the ti you get a boyfriend, you’ll be too full by the dog food they served you that you won’t be able to digest anything else."
"I’ll rember your advice, Senior!" Azalea affird.
Ye Jun was very glad about Azalea’s answer. He grinned broadly and acknowledged, "That’s like a good Junior. I like it. By the way, what’s your na?"
"Azalea," she answered.
"Oh, you really are like a flower just like your na." He pinched Azalea’s cheeks playfully and noted, "Gosh, you’re really beautiful."
Azalea grinned goofily. "Thank you! So, senior, will you take out to play?" Looking at her twinkling eyes, Ye Jun couldn’t say no at all.
"Obviously. Call anyti and I’ll be there for you. This big brother is all yours to ss with my cute little sister." He patted his own chest while talking.
"Won’t you be busy?" She inquired curiously.
"Even if I’ll be busy, I’ll make ti for you. Who wouldn’t for such a sweet little sister? Of course, I will. At all costs."
Behind them, Ye Jie was really glad to see the interaction between Ye Jun and Azalea. He knew that both will be friends because of their similar chatting habits but he didn’t fathom that it’ll be this soon. Nonetheless, he was more than just happy about it.
Like a happy family, they ate dinner together while conversing about random stuff. For Xu y, it was a very joyous experience.
After dinner, Ye Jun left for ho while Ye Jie helped Azalea to settle in her room right beside his own. "Call if you need anything. Don’t run around for no reason." Ye Jie strictly ordered Azalea and ca to his own bedroom.
But the scene before him made his jaw drop to the floor. Figuratively. Of course, not literally. That’ll be weird.
