Xi Chenzhou's tone rose slightly at the end, like the tip of a feather gently brushing against her ear.

Lin Xuechun was being held in his arms, still holding her phone in her hand. She pressed the lock screen button halfway and then released it: "My mom will check up on me..."

"I haven't called you yet, and I might not call you tonight." He turned his head and brushed his nose against her earlobe.

"What if I get hit..." Lin Xuechun couldn't help but shrink her neck, let out a soft moan, and her neck loosened a little.

The difference between sleeping in your boyfriend's arms here and sleeping alone on a cold, hard wooden bed is just too great.

"Then don't answer it, call her back tomorrow."

"Then my mom has to fly over tomorrow."

Xi Chenzhou gently tightened his arm around her waist, then slid it upwards, his fingertips pinching her soft nightgown as he lowered his voice, "It's perfect that you flew here; I can see her."

"Aren't you scared?" Lin Xuechun turned to face him. As she turned over, the strap of her nightgown slipped down a little, revealing a large expanse of smooth, white shoulders and collarbone. Xi Chenzhou was momentarily blinded by the large expanse of white skin, and his Adam's apple bobbed slightly. "What's there to be afraid of? Your mother doesn't eat people."

"Pfft." Lin Xuechun was amused by him. "You're really not afraid of my mom."

"Stay with me, okay?" Xi Chenzhou pulled her closer to him. The soft, warm body nestled against him, and the fragrance of her body still lingered in his nostrils. He really didn't want to let her go.

"Hmm? Baby?"

"OK?"

He was like a clingy big dog, his arms wrapped around her, his legs wrapped around her, his nose and chin rubbing against her neck, his lips pecking at her repeatedly.

"Okay." Lin Xuechun finally gave in to his nagging and agreed.

Her mom hasn't called to check up on her yet, and she probably won't call today.

Actually, they don't check every day; they usually check more intensively on weekend evenings.

Lin Xuechun comforted herself.

But she was still a little worried, afraid that her mother might suddenly call her in the middle of the night.

But it's been strange lately; her mother hasn't contacted her for several days.

I wonder what they're doing?

With her mind on edge, Lin Xuechun, who was already a little sleepy, became even more awake.

She opened her eyes, nudged Xi Chenzhou, and tried to sit up. "I haven't thought of any interview questions for tomorrow yet."

"I'll think of something for you." Xi Chenzhou held her tightly and didn't want to let go. His baby smelled so good and was so soft. Sometimes when he really missed her at night, he would take the rabbit from the bedside table and hug it for a while, smelling its scent. Now that she was here, he couldn't let go at all and clung to her tightly.

Lin Xuechun had no choice but to let him hold her. Fortunately, she had already showered and brushed her teeth, so she didn't have to get up and struggle anymore. She lay there peacefully and said to him in a coquettish tone, "Then help me think of something. What questions should I ask tomorrow?"

"Hmm, just ask..." Xi Chenzhou thought for a moment and asked her two professional questions. Lin Xuechun quickly grabbed her phone, wrote down the questions, and sent them directly to Guan Ying via WeChat.

……

I woke up the next day.

The two switched sleeping positions.

Last night, Xi Chenzhou held her in his arms, her back pressed against his warm chest.

In the morning, the two of them ended up facing each other.

Lin Xuechun wrapped her arms around his neck, and he buried his head in her.

Xi Chenzhou breathed in the fragrant scent, and the touch of his cheeks and nose was soft, like sleeping on cotton. He slept very contentedly.

He would nuzzle his head into her arms from time to time.

He pressed his nose against hers, sniffing and smelling.

Lin Xuechun, still half asleep, rubbed his head to stop him from nuzzling her, "What time is it... I have an interview today..."

Xi Chenzhou opened his eyes and looked at her. She looked so cute when she was still half asleep. Her eyes were closed, her delicate face was wrinkled, and a few strands of hair on her head were sticking up.

He reached out and pinched her rosy cheeks, propped himself up on his arms, and reached for his phone on the bedside table with his other hand.

The time showed it was only a little past eight o'clock.

The interview was at 10:30.

It only takes half an hour to get to Xingque Company from here.

There is plenty of time.

"Baby, you can sleep a little longer."

"Okay, call me later..."

Lin Xuechun mumbled something, turned over, put her legs on the blanket, closed her eyes, and fell asleep peacefully again.

Xi Chenzhou got up and kissed her on the cheek, then got up first, dressed, and went to wash up.

A cold, narrow, handsome face was reflected in the bathroom mirror.

His eyes were tinged with the red of someone who had just woken up, his nose was high and straight, and his sharp jaw had a light bluish stubble.

Down below is a section of pale, cold neck with a prominent Adam's apple.

He tilted his head slightly and saw several obvious red marks on the side of his neck, from where his baby had kissed him last night.

He stared at the red dots in the mirror for a few seconds, and then a slight smile slowly crept onto his lips.

I reached out and turned on the tap, and water gushed out, splashing in the sink.

He bent down, cupped water in his hands, and poured it on his face.

Water droplets slid down the high, straight brow bone.

He wiped the water off his face, straightened up, and used a razor to clean off the stubble in front of the mirror.

I brushed my teeth carefully again.

After washing up.

He strolled to the kitchen to prepare breakfast.

He opened the refrigerator and saw that there were just enough ingredients to make sandwiches. He quickly washed and chopped the ingredients, put them on the toast, and cut them diagonally to arrange them on a plate.

Then I heated up two cups of milk and washed some strawberries.

Once everything was ready, he went back to his bedroom to call Lin Xuechun.

"Baby, wake up and have breakfast."

Xi Chenzhou strode over to the bedside and leaned down to kiss Lin Xuechun on the cheek.

Lin Xuechun hummed twice, still not enough sleep, but her hand instinctively reached out, as if she wanted him to hug her.

Xi Chenzhou smiled and picked her up.

Lin Xuechun wrapped her legs around his waist, her arms around his neck, and hung on him, her face resting on his shoulder, still half asleep.

Xi Chenzhou carried her to the bathroom, and couldn't help but kiss her as they walked.

Once in the bathroom, Lin Xuechun slid off him with some whimpering and started washing her face and brushing her teeth in front of the mirror.

Xi Chenzhou stayed by her side the whole time.

After washing up, Lin Xuechun was finally fully awake.

She went back to her bedroom to get her phone, wanting to see if her mother had contacted her.

Thankfully, there were no notifications on her phone. It's strange, though. Could her mother have really changed her personality?

There's been no news for several days.

Lin Xuechun shook her head and put down her phone.

Xi Chenzhou happened to come over to call her for dinner, and the two of them hugged each other as they went to the living room.

As they sat down side by side at the dining table, Xi Chenzhou's phone vibrated. He picked it up and glanced at it; it was a WeChat message.

Ms. Jiang: [Your Aunt Zhou is coming to northern Beijing today. I asked her to invite her daughter to have a meal together.]

He didn't even know Aunt Zhou.

Xi Chenzhou's lips tightened slightly as he picked up the milk and slowly took a sip.

My phone vibrated again.

Ms. Jiang: [She held you when you were just born. Come and meet her. She's an old classmate of mine, and she helped me a lot before.]

Xi Chenzhou put down the milk and started typing with one hand.

xcz: [No time.]
