But just as she was lost in her thoughts, she felt warmth behind her. Minghao had silently moved, wrapping his arms gently around her waist in a back hug. His chin rested on her shoulder, and she could feel his soft breath near her neck.

The closeness between them heightened the tenderness of the moment, and their surroundings seemed to fade. His embrace was both protective and loving, creating an unspoken connection that made her heart flutter. The romantic tension between them deepened, and the room filled with a sense of undeniable affection. Yuri paused, her hand stopping mid-paint, as she leaned back slightly into his chest, feeling the steady beat of his heart.

Minghao whispered softly, “It feels like the colors of this painting are nothing compared to what I feel for you.” His voice was low and soothing, sending a shiver down her spine.

Minghao gently turned Yuri around, his eyes locking with hers as he leaned in slowly, his lips just inches from hers. But before he could close the distance, Yuri playfully brushed her paint brush along his nose, leaving a streak of paint on it. She burst into laughter, the sound echoing in the quiet room, her eyes bright with amusement.

Confused, Minghao touched his nose, then saw the smear of paint on his fingers. His gaze shifted to Yuri, who was still laughing, her joy infectious. For a moment, his heart swelled with a love so deep it almost overwhelmed him. Her laughter was music to his ears, her eyes sparkling more brilliantly than the stars above. He couldn’t help but get lost in the pure happiness radiating from her.

Without thinking, he pulled her close, wrapping his arms around her tightly as he closed his eyes, savoring the warmth of her presence. "I love you, Yuri," he whispered softly, his voice filled with sincerity.

Yuri rested her head against his chest, closing her eyes as she listened to the steady rhythm of his heartbeat. "I love you too, Hao," she murmured, her words melting into the space between them. The world outside disappeared, leaving only the two of them wrapped in each other’s embrace, their hearts beating as one.
