Shen Xi clutched onto him and snuggled up against his back while speaking in a hoarse voice for having just woken up. “Morning, Brother.”
Li Yuan curled his lips and said, “Good morning.”
Still half-asleep, Shen Xi could fall asleep holding him like that. As she burrowed her body against his back and inhaled the scent that was uniquely his, she closed her eyes to take in the moment of happiness and peace. Her heart had never been so full.
That morning, Shen Xi stayed in her room to finish the script instead of heading to the set.
Li Yuan was working right beside her, reading documents and dealing with paperwork.
They started out doing their own business without interrupting each other.
It did not take long before Shen Xi lay on Li Yuan’s lap while scrolling through Weibo for the latest gossip. She would come across dirt on Li Jingran and Su Yi about the ex-wife every now and then. Things were progressing as planned. All she had to do was stir the pot.
Nevertheless, Shen Xi was distracted even when she was reading the gossip. She lifted her chin to observe the man at work and could not resist poking his chin. She softly mewed, “Brother.”
Lowering his gaze, Li Yuan looked at the girl and murmured in his husky voice, “Didn’t you say you wanted to work on the script?”
Half an hour ago, Shen Xi pledged to lock herself in the bedroom to write the script. No one was to bother her and she even warned him against entering her room.
In the end, Shen Xi came out in less than ten minutes, saying she needed to find inspiration. She lay on his lap and wiggled around more actively than Toffeecito. After fooling around for a bit, she ran back to write for two minutes before coming out again. She was fooling around more than she was doing actual work.
“I’m not playing around. It’s called looking for inspiration.” Shen Xi put on a straight face. “You might not know, but we screenwriters need to feel inspired. Without inspiration, we can’t write a good script.”
Li Yuan chuckled. “Should I take you out to look for inspiration?”
Shen Xi nodded but quickly proceeded to shake her head reluctantly. She hugged his waist and brushed against his abdomen before whining, “Cold.”
Li Yuan’s breathing turned ragged as he swallowed in difficulty. With his eyes speaking of a dangerous glint, Li Yuan felt a rush to his core by her milling. His gruff voice bore a restrained ravenous fire. “Don’t move.”
It took Shen Xi a second to feel the stiffness underneath. Blushing in the face, she then realized what she had done. Still, she acted like nothing had happened and held his waist tightly while drawling, “Oh.”
She accidentally rubbed against a spot that should not be teased.
“I heard there’s a wellspring temple here. Apparently, prayers tend to be answered there. Do you want to take a look?” Li Yuan took a deep breath to calm the turbulent waves and asked her.
Shen Xi shook his head. “I think it’s nice to stay at home.”
Only a mad person would go out in the cold. She would never feel bored being cooped up at home so long as he was around.
