Staying

Long Huojin woke up early. He gave Xue Guangli a peck on the forehead before he began to wash up.

When he finished, she was still fast asleep on his bed, and he smiled before placing the covers over her body as it slipped from her grasp.

He then went down the stairs to make some breakfast when he found Yin Shou sitting by the kitchen countertop. He began to make some eggs and toast some bread while cutting pieces of avocado for the toast.

Meanwhile, Yin Shou hadn't said a word to him. He had eye bags circled his eyes as if he had been up all night. But Long Huojin kept mum and continued to make some food.

Yin Shou stared at him, realizing something about Long Huojin had changed...He was smiling. It seemed like a man who just got laid...But no, he shook his head. It wasn't possible.

Yin Shou proceeded to drink his cup of coffee, which had gone cold.

"Why does it look like you haven't slept in days?" asked Long Huojin.
