Host! I told you to do a task! I didn't tell you to bbb.

The day before New Year's Day, Liu Yunshu came to Shen Shiyan's dormitory to play.

"Brother, are you alone in the dorm today?"

Shen Shiyan sat at his desk, typing code on his laptop.

His fingertips paused on the keyboard for half a second. He turned his head, and the cold light from the screen reflected in his eyes, but it softened a little.

"Yes, they went to the company to work overtime."

Liu Yunshu said "Oh," tiptoed to the desk, stared curiously at the dense code on the screen, and muttered, "Brother is writing code again. It looks so complicated."

She then rolled her eyes. "Brother, Yunshu feels a little cold~ How about we... go to bed and warm up?"

Shen Shiyan's hand, which was typing code, suddenly stopped, and the tips of his ears instantly turned a light red.

He quickly closed his laptop, his movements a little unnatural as he stood up. He reached out and picked up his coat from the back of the chair, gently wrapping it around Liu Yunshu.

"Don't be silly." His voice was a little tight, but he still carefully helped her adjust her collar. "There's air conditioning in the dorm, I'll turn the temperature up."

Liu Yunshu was wrapped in his coat, which still carried his body heat, and the faint scent of cedar lingered around her nose.

She couldn't help but lean over and nuzzle his arm, her eyes crinkling into crescents: "But the air conditioning isn't as warm as my brother."

Shen Shiyan's ears turned even redder at her blunt words. He reached out and ruffled her hair, his tone helpless yet doting.

"After I finish this work, I'll take you to eat your favorite strawberry cake, okay?"

Liu Yunshu's eyes lit up immediately, then she pouted.

"But it's so cold outside for my brother to work. It's warmer inside the blankets. I promise I'll be good!"

Looking at the bright, expectant look in her eyes, Shen Shiyan's Adam's apple bobbed involuntarily.

He finally gave in and gently flicked her nose: "You're so good at making excuses."

He sighed helplessly and went to the upper bunk to straighten the bedding.

He bent down again to adjust the air conditioner temperature to a comfortable 26 degrees before turning back to reach out to Liu Yunshu.

"Come on up, be good and don't cause any trouble."

Liu Yunshu quickly took off her heavy clothes, leaving only a soft, off-white knitted sweater.

Holding Shen Shiyan's hand, she climbed up the bed ladder to the bunk, obediently huddled under the covers, only revealing her bright eyes as she gazed at Shen Shiyan.

Shen Shiyan, holding his laptop, carefully lay down beside her.

Liu Yunshu turned to the side, propped her head up with her elbow, and stared intently at Shen Shiyan's profile.

The blush on the tips of his ears hadn't completely faded, and under her direct gaze, his fingertips stiffened as he typed.

Liu Yunshu looked at him for a while, then her gaze slowly moved down and landed on his well-defined fingers.

Those hands, which were fast and steady when typing code, would occasionally pause for half a second because of her gaze.

She couldn't resist secretly reaching out her hand and gently touching the skin on the back of his hand with her fingertips, like a feather brushing against it.

Shen Shiyan's hand suddenly paused. He turned to look at her, his eyes filled with helplessness: "I told you to stay put."

"It's because my brother's hands are so beautiful." She stuck out her tongue.

He took a deep breath, gently took her hand in his, and softened his voice even more: "Don't be silly, it'll be over soon."

Liu Yunshu obediently hummed in agreement.

A while later.

"Liu! Yun! Shu!"

Shen Shiyan's hand, which was typing on the code, suddenly froze.

"What's wrong with my brother?"

Liu Yunshu looked at him with an innocent expression.

"you……"

He slammed the notebook shut.

"Why did you close the notebook, brother?"

Shen Shiyan: ...

"Is my brother tired?"

Shen Shiyan: ...

"Liu! Yun! Shu!"

Xiao Ba squatted on the wardrobe opposite and silently shook his head.

Sometimes, well, you need to be careful when you hear something from someone.

Suddenly, the dormitory door was opened.

Startled, Shen Shiyan quickly opened the notebook and placed it on his person.

"Old Chen! What are you doing in the dorm today? Didn't you go spend time with your sweet little childhood sweetheart?"

As soon as Gao Yang finished speaking, he swayed into the dormitory.

Shen Shiyan coughed lightly, clenching his fist. "Yeah, I still have some work to do. I'll go see her later. Aren't you working overtime at the company?"

Gao Yang was completely unaware of the unusual atmosphere in the dormitory. He casually sat down in a chair and tossed his bag onto the table.

"Don't even mention it. There was a small problem with the project, but I came back as soon as I finished dealing with it. I was thinking of picking up some things here."

As he spoke, his eyes swept over the upper bunk where Chen Shiyan was, and he casually asked, "Why are you still working in bed? Is the dorm chair uncomfortable?"

Shen Shiyan paused in typing, clearing his throat. "Ahem! It's a bit cold. The bed is warmer, it won't delay things."

As he spoke, his fingers kept tapping on the keyboard.

Gao Yang kept talking about company affairs, but Shen Shiyan's attention was completely elsewhere.

His eyes were fixed on the screen, his fingers unconsciously tapping the keyboard, and he occasionally responded to Gao Yang.

A bunch of gibberish appeared on the screen.

Shen Shiyan expressed that he really hated himself for multitasking at this moment!

"You should hurry back after you've taken your things; the project isn't completely finished yet, is it?"

Gao Yang didn't notice the tension in his tone and said casually, "Let's go, let's go. By the way, everyone's getting together for hot pot tomorrow, New Year's Day. Don't forget, you two. I'll send the location to the group later."

As Gao Yang spoke, he bent down and rummaged through the desk drawer.

Shen Shiyan's fingers furiously tapped the keyboard as he mumbled a reply, "Understood."

"Found it! Found it!" Gao Yang straightened up, holding a USB drive, and dusted off his pants. "I'm leaving now. Li Zhe and Liu Xu are still waiting for me."

Gao Yang turned and walked towards the door, his hand already on the doorknob, but then, as if suddenly remembering something, he paused and looked back at Shen Shiyan.

Shen Shiyan's heart jumped into his throat, and the sweat on his back almost soaked his clothes.

Even my breathing became unconsciously softer, and I could only stare intently at the already garbled interface on the screen, pretending to be focused.

"By the way, Lao Chen," Gao Yang scratched his head, his gaze sweeping over a women's down jacket on the stool, and casually asked, "Why is there a women's garment here?"

Shen Shiyan's face flushed bright red, and her neck was also tinged with a light red. Her brain was racing.

"Yun Shu was here just now, she left this."

Gao Yang didn't think much of it and grinned, "Alright, then remember to deliver it to them. See you tomorrow for hotpot!"

With a "bang," the dormitory door finally closed, and Gao Yang's footsteps gradually faded into the distance.

Shen Shiyan instantly breathed a sigh of relief, his back slamming heavily against the headboard, his chest heaving violently, and even fine beads of sweat appearing on his forehead.

He slammed the notebook shut, tossed it aside, and turned to look at the culprit in the blanket.

Liu Yunshu couldn't hold back any longer. She was hiding in a corner, covering her mouth and chuckling. Her shoulders were shrug and her eyes were curved into sly crescents.

Shen Shiyan looked at Liu Yunshu, who was laughing so hard her shoulders were shaking, and felt both angry and helpless.

He reached out and gently pinched her cheek: "Still smiling? You were almost caught just now, but you weren't flustered at all."

Liu Yunshu pulled his hand down, gently scratched his palm with her fingertips, and smiled in her eyes: "I knew you could handle it, brother."

He reached out and pinched her chin, gently shaking it. His tone was laced with a hint of gritted teeth, but his eyes betrayed his indulgence: "Keep causing trouble? Believe me, I'll deal with you right now."

Not only was Liu Yunshu unafraid, she leaned in and gently pecked his lips, her voice as soft as cotton candy: "How does brother plan to punish me?"
