Mousse Cake

Jiang Gao showered very quickly and came out in about ten minutes. Lin Yueqin was curled up on the sofa, playing with her cell phone, with the towel on her head.

The hair dryer was placed on the coffee table. She hadn't blow-dried her hair yet. Jiang Gao rubbed his still wet hair casually with a towel.

Then he walked over, picked up the hair dryer, plugged it into the wall behind the sofa, stood on one leg, and supported his other knee on the sofa.

He gently removed the towel from Lin Yueqin's head, adjusted the temperature, and then began to blow her hair gently.

Lin Yueqin is replying to comments from netizens on Weibo. She wants to reply to as many fans' messages as possible, so she is completely immersed in it.

Feeling that it was Jiang Gao blowing her hair, she tilted her head back, squinted her eyes, looked at him with a smile, and then enjoyed his service with peace of mind.

Her hair was a little long, so it took a long time to blow-dry it. After ten minutes, her hair was still not completely dry.

She put down her phone, moved closer to him, put her arms around his thighs, put her cheek on his waist, and rubbed it affectionately, like a kitten craving for warm touch.

Jiang Gao continued to stroke her hair with a doting look on his face, and the gentle warm breeze lifted her hair.

Later, Lin Yueqin also blew Jiang Gao's hair.

After more than ten days of getting along, many things have become fixed.

Slowly, the days became sticky.

In the morning, before every parting, of course they would hug first. No matter how early it was, Jiang Gao always seemed to be able to unlock the door on time and hug her when she was about to go out.

After Lin Yueqin came back from get off work, Jiang Gao would always take the initiative to open his arms and hug her. As soon as his arms were around her, his chin would rest on Lin Yueqin's shoulder, which was very big. Lin Yueqin always stood straight, and then she would gently stroke his back with her palm.

Lin Yueqin found that he was becoming more and more clingy.

It's like a big dog waiting for its owner at home, looking forward to it. The moment the owner opens the door, it will rush over to greet him, rub against him, stick to him, and lick him as much as it wants.

They would also blow-dry each other's hair, but usually Lin Yueqin would wash it first, and then she would come out to blow-dry his hair, which would be done in a few minutes. After that, Jiang Gao would blow-dry her hair. Her hair was very long, so it would usually take more than twenty minutes.

Accompanied by a strong smell of shampoo, occasionally a drop or two of water falls.

The aroma filled the entire living room, a scent they all shared, fascinating, addictive, and soothing.

Not too bothersome, not too trivial, just a simple little happiness.

They always can't help but smile.

Warm and healing.

Then they would open their arms and welcome each other into each other's fragrant embrace, or Lin Yueqin would lie on him to play games, watch videos, or their eyes would become blurred and they would kiss with the heat just now.

More and more intimate, more and more sticky.

…

Today, Lin Yueqin didn't return home until one o'clock in the morning.

There was a light on for her, someone was waiting for her, naturally and normally, Jiang Gao hugged her and rubbed his head against her neck.

Unexpectedly, Lin Yueqin did not stand straight as usual this time. She suddenly lost her strength and pressed her cheek against his chest, her whole body limp.

This abnormal behavior made Jiang Gao stand up straight immediately and hug her tightly.

"What's wrong?" He asked in a low voice, rubbing his chin against the top of her head.

Lin Yueqin sighed, then slowly said, "I... am a little tired." Her tone was very heavy, and one could clearly hear the sadness and unhappiness in it.

Jiang Gao covered the back of her head with one hand, gently stroked her hair with the other hand, and then left a light kiss on her forehead.

"I know. Reporter Lin has worked hard. Reporter Lin is really amazing."

Lin Yueqin smiled when she heard that, and her eyes quickly filled with tears.

Jiang Gao suddenly panicked, but still asked gently, "Did you encounter anything unhappy at work?"

Lin Yueqin nodded in his arms, feeling a little aggrieved, "Do you remember the movie we watched before?"

"Um."

"The director of that film will be our guest on the final episode. After learning about this assignment, I took the time to watch all of his films and interviews. I revised my interview script many times. I'm also really looking forward to talking to him, hoping to get his approval and make the show a success..."

"It's not just me, there are also many staff members. Everyone attaches great importance to this recording, but... we waited until one o'clock in the morning, and he said..." Lin Yueqin choked a little.

"He said... the questions I prepared were not good, so he suddenly didn't come..." Her voice gradually faded away.

"He...why didn't he say it earlier..."

"Besides, since we hired him, there's no penalty..."

"All our efforts are in vain...my efforts are useless..." She became more and more sad as she spoke.

Jiang Gao kept stroking her hair with his hands, silently soothing her with his actions.

"No, no, no, you did a great job, really." Jiang Gao didn't know how to comfort her, he just said what was in his heart.

"You...are lying."

"No, I've seen your show. You're great, really. They all say you're great, too."

"Who?" Lin Yueqin suddenly raised her head and looked at him with some grievance in her sparkling eyes.

"There are teammates, the operation of our club, our training, and, well, there is..." He tried his best to recall.

Lin Yueqin didn't say anything, just blinked her eyes. She didn't believe it.

"It was just before. They showed your show on the scrolling screen at the club's front desk. Then, we were all coming back from the game that day. When we walked past the front desk slowly and saw the screen, everyone said something."

"say what?"

"They said you are beautiful and have good business skills."

"What about you?"

"Me? ...I agree."

Lin Yueqin couldn't help but laugh softly.

"Thank you, but I'm still a little sad. We have been preparing for a long time, and I have been preparing for a long time too..." As she spoke, she became melancholy again.

"The effort will not be in vain. At least you have learned something and realized something in the process."

"Just because he doesn't approve of you doesn't mean you're bad. Reporter Lin, you're really great." He stroked her back.

"Oh." She sighed softly.

"But our last show is really important!"

"Well, it's okay. There's always a way to solve it. Besides, he's disrespectful for not coming to the show. He's not a good person, so even if he came to the show, the broadcast wouldn't necessarily be good."

"Reporter Lin, be yourself. You are the most important thing."

"You can choose again after you wake up. There's still a chance. You're not alone, right?"

Lin Yueqin rubbed her forehead against his clothes, rubbing it up and down, "Okay."

Seeing that her mood was a little better, Jiang Gao took her hand and led her to sit on the sofa.

He took the paper on the coffee table and wiped her tearful eyes, then said softly, "Do you want some cake?"

"Huh? Where did you get the cake so late at night?"

"Yes." After saying that, he stood up and went to the refrigerator to take out a small piece of pink mousse cake.

"Did you buy it?"

"Hmm." He picked up the spoon, scooped a spoonful and handed it to her mouth.

Lin Yueqin took a bite and found the cold white peach mousse sandwiched between the soft cake base and a layer of brownie at the bottom. It was dense and satisfying, and very delicious.

"Why did you buy this?"

"Because you came home a little late today, I thought you must be very tired from work, but... you turned out to be sad."

"Hmm... then why did you buy a cake? Why not a barbecue or something?"

"Do you want to eat barbecue?" Jiang Gao quickly picked up the phone next to him and opened the food delivery app. Barbecue was still available at this time.

"No, no!" Lin Yueqin held his phone.

"I mean, why would you choose a mousse cake?"

"Uh... because... you said that drinking sweet milk tea would make you feel better, so I guess eating sweets counts."

Did she say that? It seemed she did, during their second meal.

"Ah! Teacher Jiang, wuwuwu..." She cried again.

Lin Yueqin suddenly pounced on Jiang Gao beside her like a lively rabbit, and then she kissed him.

This time she was in control, and it was sudden and fierce.

I transferred the remaining mousse cream in my mouth into his mouth, and the two of them shared the taste of peach and cheese.

So sweet and sticky.

…

Later, in addition to the sweet taste of cheese and white peaches, Jiang Gao's mouth also had a hint of salty taste. He kissed her eyes devoutly and kissed away the tears on her cheeks.

Her heart was filled with comfort, recognition, and companionship.

Very warm and reassuring.

The hot tears are no longer shed for grievance and sadness, but for passionate love.

Before she headed home, she felt like today was going to be a particularly bad day. She finally managed to get a ride, but the driver couldn't find the seat, drove her around in circles, and overcharged her by fifty yuan. It was late, so she didn't complain. He forgot to put a straw in the coffee she ordered for lunch, and the streetlights near the community pavilion didn't seem to be on...

But now, Teacher Jiang, I am actually so lucky.

I am lucky to meet you.

Even when they kissed passionately, they still restrained themselves.

"Go wash up and have a good sleep. There will be sunshine tomorrow." Jiang Gao patted her back gently.

Later, after Lin Yueqin finished taking a shower, she stood in front of the sink. Jiang Gao squeezed toothpaste for her, then stood behind her and blew her hair.

While brushing her teeth, she stared at the man in the mirror who was busy for her. His movements were serious and his eyes were focused. The picture in the mirror was so gentle that she couldn't take her eyes off it.

When you focus on the happiness in front of you, your worries have long been forgotten.

Well, today wasn't that bad.

Before going to bed, they exchanged a passionate kiss for goodnight.

Good night, have a good sleep today too.

…

The next day, unexpectedly, Jiang Gao got up very early. He was waiting for her to eat, and there was McDonald's breakfast on the table.

After Lin Yueqin finished washing up, she sat at the dining table and couldn't help asking, "Why did you buy breakfast today?"

This was the first time they sat down to have breakfast together.

"Well..." Jiang Gao spoke a little embarrassedly.

"Because... I want to tell you... that you will always get full marks with me..." After saying that, he lowered his head and his face suddenly turned red.

Lin Yueqin opened her mouth wide, she was completely stunned. She didn't expect Teacher Jiang to be a little childish, but she was also very moved.

She smiled, then reached out and grabbed his hand, and handed the teriyaki chicken thigh in his hand to his mouth: "You too, you are also perfect."

After saying that, both of them smiled a little embarrassedly.

It’s childish, but also very happy.

The weather is beautiful today, the sun is really out.
