Night fell, the moon hung high, stars dotted the sky.
On the street, neon lights flickered, pedestrians rushing to and fro.
Even in the dead of night, they didn't slow down, as if everyone had endless things to do.
The way home always seemed faster than the way out.
Just a thirty-minute drive, and the outline of the "Heartwarming Cabin" appeared in front of the car.
Su Bai unbuckled his seatbelt, just about to call out to Sun Le Yan to get out.
Turning his head, he noticed that Sun Le Yan was leaning her head against the car door frame, her hands wrapped around herself, clutching her seatbelt, fast asleep.
Her legs were slightly curled up, forming a little ball.
When she was awake, her aura exuded elegance and grace.
But now, she was sleeping like a little hamster.
Su Bai couldn't help but chuckle. He found this state of Sun Le Yan particularly endearing.
"Wake up, we're here."
He gently called out to her.
But obviously, it had no effect.
She had stayed up late last night, then worked all day, followed by a banquet and other engagements.
It was only natural that she would be tired.
He thought for a moment, then walked to her side of the car, opened the window, gently nudged her, hoping to rouse her slightly.
Then, he suddenly said:
"Hey! Beautiful lady on the side of the road, give me your contact information."
And so.
"Huh? Su Bai, whose contact information do you want?"
Sun Le Yan instantly woke up, her bright and radiant eyes widening.
She immediately scanned the side of the road.
"Whose? The one who's sleeping like a little hamster."
Su Bai chuckled, surprised that his trick actually worked.
Could she even defend herself against him while asleep?
Sun Le Yan blushed slightly, realizing that Su Bai was teasing her again.
"I... I wasn't asleep, I was just trying to see your reaction!"
"Okay, okay, so you were setting a trap for me?"
Su Bai saw through her but didn't say anything. He went along with her, but then, as if noticing something, he suddenly exclaimed with surprise.
"Hey! Sun Le Yan, why is my car door wet? Did you drool in your sleep?"
“!!!”
"I did not!"
Sun Le Yan quickly sat up, checking if she really had drooled.
If she had, she would be mortified!
To be sleeping in front of Su Bai, and drooling at that!
But when she looked at where she had been sleeping, her eyes narrowed.
"You're lying to me!"
"You stand still, don't run!"
She playfully punched him again.
He begged for mercy.
Only then was Sun Le Yan willing to let him go!
They left the parking lot and walked along the side of the road towards the cabin.
The light from the street lamps slanted down, creating a picturesque scene.
Sun Le Yan secretly glanced at Su Bai beside her.
It was true, the subdued Su Bai was excessively charming.
Every moment seemed to make her heart beat faster.
Although she was a bit sarcastic, she found it inexplicably interesting.
"I'm very happy today."
"Me too."
Sun Le Yan's words were quickly answered by Su Bai.
No unnecessary antics.
No unnecessary chatter.
Sun Le Yan smiled sweetly again, liking this answer.
"Is that the truth or a lie?"
However, she asked again.
"A lie."
"....."
I shouldn't have asked!
Sun Le Yan glared at Su Bai with narrowed eyes.
"Then forget it, I was going to say, I'm happy today, as a reward, you can make one outrageous request of me!"
"Since you're not happy, I won't give you the opportunity."
"Huh?"
"That was the truth!"
Su Bai immediately changed his tune.
Sun Le Yan playfully stuck out her tongue, "Oops!"
"Missed by a hair's breadth, you've lost your chance."
Su Bai was inevitably disappointed.
He beat his chest and stomped his feet.
He acted as if he had missed out on a billion dollars!
"You're so disappointed? Is this one little request really that important to you?"
"Yes! It's extremely important!"
Su Bai nodded without hesitation, almost saying that he couldn't live without this opportunity.
Sun Le Yan was extremely curious!
She didn't know why Su Bai valued this opportunity so much.
It was just a small request of her.
Perhaps Su Bai was trying to use this chance to do something?
Thinking about it, she felt a surge of anticipation.
She pretended to be deep in thought.
"Then... make me some lava buns later, you agree, and I'll give you another chance to make a request of me."
"Later... later?"
Su Bai looked dubious, was he supposed to eat it right now?!
Didn't they agree to make them tomorrow?
Sun Le Yan defended herself.
"I just want to taste it first, in case you don't make it well, I won't let you make them tomorrow."
Su Bai rolled his eyes, not believing her.
Was there anything he could do to refute his culinary skills?
She wanted to eat, plain and simple, she was just making excuses!
"Didn't you say you were going to lose weight today?"
"Yes! But you said I shouldn't lose weight, and besides, it's just one, I'm just tasting it, special circumstances, special treatment."
Sun Le Yan said this with a serious expression.
Su Bai gave her a thumbs-up.
"You have me speechless, okay, you have willpower."
"You talk about losing weight all the time, but never actually do it."
???
Is he trying to tear her down like this?
Is he saying I talk the talk, but don't walk the walk?
Sun Le Yan gritted her teeth, then her face flushed. Honestly... he wasn't wrong!
But I won't listen, I won't listen, it's just a bunch of nonsense!
"Anyway, agree or disagree."
"Agree, I'll make them for you later, the ingredients are already in the fridge."
Su Bai rested his hands on the back of his head, smiling helplessly as he gestured toward the cabin.
Sun Le Yan was satisfied, nodding with a smile.
"Then you have your chance, you can make your request."
She then looked forward with anticipation.
She was dying to hear what request Su Bai would make.
It wouldn't be...
Just say you like me or something like that.
As her voice trailed off, Su Bai suddenly stopped, looking at Sun Le Yan seriously.
"Finally, I have this opportunity."
"You're sure? It's an outrageous request, as outrageous as it can be, can you accept it?"
Thump, thump, thump!
Sun Le Yan felt her heart beat faster.
As outrageous as it can be.
Could he have guessed right?
How could she say it out loud, she wasn't ready yet.
But what if he didn't mean that? She thought for a moment, then hesitantly agreed.
"You... Ugh, well, as long as I can accept it."
"You you you, go on, say it."
At this point, both Sun Le Yan and the viewers in the live stream were filled with tension and anticipation.
Su Bai slightly opened his mouth.
"Then I'll make my request."
"Can you... "
"Top up my Q币 with 10 yuan, my Green Diamond membership expired and needs to be renewed."
???
Are you crazy?!
Ah!
Top up Q币 with 10 yuan?
This is your extremely important opportunity?
You..... I..... !!!!
Sun Le Yan's eyes narrowed, she took a deep breath.
She shouldn't have had any hopes for this guy.
This romantic allergy-stricken con artist!
It was all an illusion!
"How about it? Top it up or not? You can definitely accept this, right?"
Su Bai took out his phone and opened the renewal page.
He really wanted Sun Le Yan to pay!
"No way!"
Sun Le Yan turned her head and started to walk away.
Su Bai smacked his lips, looking up with a sigh of lament.
"As expected! As expected!"
"As expected, what they say online is true, beautiful girls will always lie."
A compliment.
Sun Le Yan stopped, wanting to wait and see how Su Bai would explain this time.
Then, the next moment.
"Now I understand, ugly ones will too!"
"Hey! Hey! Hey, Sun Le Yan, what are you doing."
"Don't worry, it's okay, I won't beat you to death."
The entire live stream instantly erupted in laughter!
——Pfft hahaha!! I knew it!! I knew it!!
——It expired at twelve, the Green Diamond didn't renew, you say, is that important or not, hahahaha!
——The candy in my mouth suddenly turned to dirt, rolling across my face.
——This kid never says anything good, I can already predict, only when Su Bai speaks first, especially when he mentions something specifically, he's gonna do something funny!
——That's right! Unless it's a particularly important occasion for Le Yan, this kid will never be genuine.
——Hey, why does this explanation make them seem even more shippable?
