The footsteps grew closer.
"Are you sure you're there, bro?"
"He should be here, otherwise where else could he be?"
"Okay, let's go knock on the door then."
………………
Ling Qingyue looked at Jiang Tian, and neither of them spoke, maintaining a tacit silence in the darkness.
Ling Qingyue, after a few seconds, continued as if no one else was around.
Jiang Tian couldn't help but tense up all over.
It was as if fire was flowing through the darkness.
………………
Meanwhile, just outside, separated from them by only a wall.
"Knock on the door."
Why didn't you knock?
"I'm afraid my brother will scold me."
"I'm scared too."
………………
Even though the conversation between the two people was right next to him, Ling Qingyue didn't even lift his head.
"Ignore them." The voice was very low.
Jiang Tian's insteps were all straightened.
………………
"Never mind, I'll do it. My brother probably won't yell at me."
"Don't drag me into this when I'm criticizing you."
The next second, a series of knocks sounded on the door.
"Brother, are you in your room? We'd like you to come eat with us. We're a team, how can we leave you out?"
No one responded until the words were spoken.
………………
Inside the room.
Ling Qingyue continued.
Jiang Tian was trembling all over.
…………
"Make the knocking louder."
"Seriously, is my brother really not here?"
"Get out of the way, I'll handle this."
More urgent knocking began.
"Brother, stop pretending to be dead! We want you to have dinner with us!"
…………
Jiang Tian couldn't stand up anymore; her legs went weak, but luckily Ling Qingyue caught her.
Ling Qingyue's breath hit her neck, and a burning kiss sealed her lips.
…………
"Brother, are you exhausted and passed out? Why don't you go get the key from the manager? He can't hear you even with this much noise."
"That's possible. You stay here and I'll go get the key from the manager."
"Okay, go and come back quickly."
…………
Ling Qingyue stroked Jiang Tian's face, which was soaked with sweat and as beautiful as a flower. He hugged her and patted her gently, and she trembled slightly.
Ling Qingyue kissed her hard and said towards the door—
"If I can still feel you breathing near me within one minute, I will personally train with you for the next week."
…………
In less than a minute, almost half a minute, the two people outside the door seemed to have their throats choked by an invisible hand.
Soon, Ling Qingyue heard hurried footsteps and the sound of the door closing.
Everything fell silent again.
Ling Qingyue easily carried Jiang Tian towards the bathroom, turning on the light as she did so.
"Sister, all the annoying guys are gone, now it's your turn to pamper me..."
Ling Qingyue played the game five times in one night, which was supposed to be played ten times a week.
Seeing that he was getting restless after hugging her for a while, Jiang Tian finally kicked him off.
Ling Qingyue fell to the floor, but he didn't care at all. He went back to hug Jiang Tian.
It was already 2 a.m.
Ling Qingyue sent a message to the manager. A group of people returned from a dinner party, moving like ghosts, afraid of making too much noise and disturbing Ling Qingyue who was resting.
Those two have already been assigned extra training by the manager. With the previous example in mind, who would dare to go head-to-head with Ling Qingyue?
Therefore, Jiang Tian and Ling Qingyue's private time was not disturbed.
"It's two o'clock, baby, you should go to sleep."
Jiang Tian didn't say anything, but placed her hand on Ling Qingyue's back and twisted it.
Ling Qingyue called out silently, her face contorted with distress, and whispered, "Calling me 'sister' is fine, but calling me 'baby' is not?"
"Don't make me cringe." Jiang Tian rolled her eyes at him.
Ling Qingyue laughed: "I didn't find it cheesy at all."
Jiang Tian took his hand and placed it on her arm: "I'm getting goosebumps."
Ling Qingyue rubbed her hands and whispered, "Go to sleep."
He hugged her very tightly.
There was nothing Ling Qingyue could do; the thought of Jiang Tian leaving so early in the morning was unbearable.
Jiang Tian touched his face: "Why are you still sleeping? It's almost time anyway."
"Sleep for a while longer." Ling Qingyue felt a sweet warmth in her heart, and also felt sorry for her.
Jiang Tian has a very busy schedule, and Ling Qingyue knows she is very busy.
Despite his busy schedule, he was willing to take time to see her, so Ling Qingyue believed that he, as her boyfriend, still held a certain weight in her heart.
It's no wonder he was unhappy when he thought about this.
Jiang Tian didn't sleep, but whispered many instructions to him, telling him to take good care of himself.
She was fine until she brought it up, and Ling Qingyue immediately had a say in it.
"You told me to take care of my health, but look at how you take care of yourself. We haven't seen each other for very long, and your waist has gotten even thinner."
Ling Qingyue was familiar with all of Jiang Tian's measurements, after all, he had personally... done it.
It was precisely because everyone knew this that Ling Qingyue felt increasingly sorry for her.
The chef training course he enrolled in is about to start, and he'll pursue further studies after this season ends.
Jiang Tian is a workaholic, impeccable at work, but not so good at life.
He needs to take good care of her and help her get better and better.
"Alright, I've been too busy. I'll definitely gain the weight back once I get through this busy period." Jiang Tian pinched his cheek. "You're so nagging at such a young age, who will be able to stand you in the future?"
Ling Qingyue's expression changed instantly. He held Jiang Tian's hand and said, "Only you can bear it, sister. You're all I have left."
A pitiful tone.
