Super Sweet, 100\% Honeymoon-Chapter 823 - 820: Cherished

Xiyan pleaded persistently, "Come on, please?"

"If you get scared and cry later, I’m not comforting you."

"I definitely won’t. I just don’t want to watch it alone. If someone is with me, I won’t cry." Xiyan said, jumping off his lap, "I’m going for a shower now, hehe."

Ou Jue: ......

Xiyan showered quickly and came out of the bathroom about twenty minutes later.

She changed into pink bunny pajamas, her hair was loose, her little face was flushed, looking unbearably cute.

Upon a closer look, Ou Jue had already shut down his computer and was lying on the bed.

He was holding a tablet in his hand.

She trotted over, pulled up the covers, and snuggled into Ou Jue’s bed, "I’m done showering."

She smelled like fragrant shower gel.

"Quick, quick, did you find it?"

Only then did Ou Jue open up the film he had prepared on the tablet.

The weather in December was chilly, a cold breeze blew by, rustling the dry branches outside the window.

A shriveled leaf swayed and fell off.

Inside, Xiyan snuggled in Ou Jue’s arms, the two of them covering themselves with the same blanket, watching a little movie together.

The atmosphere was indescribably harmonious.

So blissful.

However—

What played on the tablet was a horror film with a creepy soundtrack.

Even nestled in Ou Jue’s embrace, Xiyan felt her heart jump to her throat.

As the plot progressed, the feeling of fear intensified.

She was watching intently, and suddenly, Ou Jue stretched out his hand to cover Xiyan’s eyes.

"What are you doing?" Xiyan tried to break free.

The next second, they heard the female lead in the movie scream.

Only after the terrifying scene passed did he remove his hand.

And then... Xiyan realized.

Whenever the movie had particularly scary scenes or when ghosts appeared, Ou Jue would always cover her eyes in time.

She understood the plot but wasn’t frightened at all.

Xiyan was amazed, "How did you know?"

"I just know."

"Come on, tell me."

"When you were in the shower, I already watched the whole movie once."

"I thought we agreed to watch it together!"

"Silly, how else would I know when to cover your eyes?"

He had memorized all the scary parts.

Otherwise, if she really got scared and cried, he’d have to comfort her.

Ou Jue spoke in an indifferent tone, but Xiyan froze slightly. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

For some reason, her heart was suddenly filled with a special emotion.

The more these unintentional little things in life, the more she felt the taste of being pampered by him.

Xiyan threw herself into his arms, "Oof..."

Ou Jue, who was just calm and composed, suddenly frowned, holding her, "Why are you crying?"

"This isn’t crying; I’m just touched."

She just felt so lucky to meet him among the masses, to fall in love with him, and to be loved by him.

Ou Jue’s tone was confused, unable to understand this girl’s mindset, he could only cup her little face and wipe her tears with his thumb, "Even that is not allowed."

"When we first met, didn’t you say I didn’t need to pretend in front of you, that I could cry if I wanted to?"

"...I take back that statement now." With him around, there should be no tears.

"What if one day, you don’t like me anymore?"

"Fool." Ou Jue wiped her tears, "That day will never come."

In her ear was his low voice, carrying a promise only for her.

She had previously read about protagonists sacrificing even their lives for their loved ones.

At that time, Ou Jue had scoffed when he read that.

But now...

He suddenly understood.

The next day, it was the weekend plus a holiday.

Several days without school, just as Xiyan’s first holiday started with an event to attend.

The event was on a small island, requiring several hours by ferry to reach.

Ou Jue would accompany her, so in Xiyan’s eyes, it might as well be a trip to have fun~!

She was super excited!

Xiyan was up early packing her things.

An Ran, however, had to suffer through make-up classes.

Ruge was different; her parents were abroad, allowing her to call Ji Yanche to invite him, making it a group of four.

Xiyan hung up An Ran’s call, shook her head, and said, "An Ran is so pitiful... her mom is too strict, she won’t let her out."

If they could invite An Ran along, the three girls would be together.

That would be perfect.

They agreed to meet Ruge and Ji Yanche at the dock.

Xiyan and Ou Jue first went to a supermarket.

Traveling was really inconvenient for Xiyan; she had to wear a hat and mask.

But nothing could stop her desire to go to the supermarket.

After all, shopping at the supermarket before a trip is the minimum respect for a journey, hahaha.
