Back at the hotel, the two were passionate as fire, excited and joyful to be accepted. They became intimate for a while.
Then they washed up a bit, changed clothes, and went to a restaurant near the hotel for dinner.
There was a bar in the hotel. After dinner, they went to the bar in the hotel.
Yu Na drank quite a lot.
One of them had to be sober, so Xiao Chen didn't drink much and just watched her drink all night.
Seeing she was drunk, Xiao Chen supported her back to the room.
After settling down, he carried her to the bed, not only to take care of her, but also to listen to her drunk words.
"Xiao Chen."
"Yeah?"
She leaned against the sofa, her eyes bright and clear, but with a hint of tease, "You're so handsome."
Xiao Chen pulled the quilt up a bit, his ears turned a little red hearing this, "....I'll get angry if you tell the truth again."
Yu Na took out her phone from the side, opened her Moments, and handed it to him, "Do you want to see my Moments?"
Xiao Chen took it, puzzled.
Soon after, he saw that Yu Na's Moments were full of his photos.
Except they were all set to private, visible only to herself.
The fireworks show that night, photo together on the beach.
Eating hot pot together.
The lecture podium in the classroom.
Being together at night.
And the candid photos she took of him.
All were related to him, but she had set them to private.
He remembered that the calendar at her home also had dates circled related to him.
Didn't expect her Moments would be like this too.
Yu Na said, "Back then, I didn't dare let you know I still liked you. But I wanted to keep a record of everything related to you, so I set the permissions. When free, going through Moments became something I did often. "
And you, had become my little secret hidden in my heart.
Xiao Chen's heart felt as sweet as honey.
He screenshotted them one by one, then sent them to his own phone, before putting her phone back.
He lay on his side, elbow on the bed, stared at her intently and said, "You always say I'm very optimistic, do you know why?"
"Why?"
"Because since I was little, I've never cared too much about anything, just go with the flow." He lowered himself, stretched out his arm, and hugged her in his arms, meeting her affectionate gaze, he said, "But now there is, you are my—"
Their lips met, gentle and passionate.
"First affection."
......
That night, Yu Na was very drunk.
Like a clingy creature, she kept hugging Xiao Chen and didn't let go, still holding him while asleep.
Xiao Chen restrained himself in the end, not touching her when she was incoherently drunk.
But he couldn't fall asleep, unsure if it was because of Yu Na's endless teasing, or his jet lag not wearing off.
Unable to sleep, he didn't do anything else, just stared at her.
The girl in his arms was sleeping soundly, cheeks still flushed red, very well-behaved after falling asleep, without making any noise.
Xiao Chen held her, freeing one hand and taking out his phone.
He had screenshotted Yu Na's Moments just now, sending all the photos to his phone.
Xiao Chen looked through them again one by one, besides being touched, also wondering, how did she get so good at taking these secret shots!
Taking so many pictures of him, yet he didn't notice a single one?!
Looking through them, Xiao Chen became more spirited, feeling no drowsiness at all. He opened his Moments, and rarely posted—
【What's it like having a clingy girlfriend?[shy/][shy/][shy/]】
With a photo of their selfie taken when driving to the village last time.
Xiao Chen and Yu Na rarely posted on Moments, not even exclaiming their relationship wildly, just living their little life well.
So it was rare for Xiao Chen to post something like this, during day time in his home country too, naturally garnering lively comments and likes.
The corners of Xiao Chen's lips nearly reached the sky, his mood extremely good, as he replied to the comments one by one—
Han Chengxun:【?You're so frivolous】 —— Xiao Chen's reply:【Master praised too highly】
Lin Shuan:【Ahhhhh treat my Yu Na well!!】 —— Xiao Chen's reply:【 Definitely!】
Xiao Hanlin:【Holy shit!!!? You're more frivolous than Old Han】 —— Xiao Chen's reply:【1】
Chi Yuan:【Miss has really bad eyesight!!![cry hard/]】—— Xiao Chen's reply:【You strange melon, go stand at the corner】
"..."
These were his university mates, besides them, the rest of the commentors were very polite, and Xiao Chen replied politely as well.
Then suddenly, a group message popped up.
Back when he was in college, it was the group of an online game he played with his good buds.
Xiao Hanlin:【@C get out!】
Chi Yuan:【Teach me! How did the Miss like you!】
Xiao Hanlin:【I'll buy the published book】
C:【[cute/][cute/][cute/]】
C:【There won't be any book, my looks speak for themselves】
Han Chengxun:【So cringe my eyes hurt】
Chi Yuan:【Grease King hello】
Xiao Hanlin:【The Miss is great, just a bit blind】
C:【[cute/]I know you guys are anxious, but don't be impatient】
Chi Yuan:【?】
Xiao Hanlin:【You have a girlfriend now huh?】
The group was lively.
Xiao Chen wasn't sleepy either, so he trash talked with them.
Suddenly, Yu Na whimpered and then slowly opened her eyes.
"You're awake?" Xiao Chen immediately put down his phone, rubbed her head, "Thirsty?"
Yu Na nodded.
Xiao Chen handed her mineral water, "Headache?"
"No headache." Yu Na drank some water, then gave it back to him.
Xiao Chen took the bottle and drank some too.
Yu Na went back into his arms again, "Why aren't you sleeping yet?"
"Not sleepy, just chatted with some university mates."
"Oh," Yu Na was too sleepy to keep her eyes open, not asking further as she burrowed into his embrace, a hint of petulance: "It's very late now, stop chatting. We're going to Rovi tomorrow right?"
Xiao Chen stopped his trash talking manner in the group, softened his voice to coax, "Alright, no more chatting, let's sleep together."
Yu Na hugged his neck, a sweet smile, then fell asleep again.
Xiao Chen took out his phone again, sending in the group that was still popping with messages—
【Not talking to you two single dogs anymore】
【My girlfriend told me to sleep~】
Xiao Hanlin:【Piss off】
Chi Yuan:【Piss off】
The remaining 3 were still chatting enthusiastically in the group. Xiao Chen turned off notifications cleverly, then reached out to hug Yu Na again.
The latter felt it, shifting closer to him.
Falling asleep in each other's embrace.
The next day, the two returned to Rovi.
This was where they studied for their Bachelor's.
Except Yu Na had just entered her first year, while Xiao Chen was already in his third year.
The two only shared less than a year of common memories.
Compared to London, Rovi was very small, but the small town had everything.
There was no such thing as summer in Rovi, the highest temperature doesn't exceed 25 degrees Celsius.
The clothes Yu Na brought were very thin. Afraid she would be cold, Xiao Chen brought his own jackets.
As expected, they came in useful.
Especially because this year, Rovi summer was also very cold.
At the hotel after arriving, Yu Na sat on the sofa and browsed her phone. Suddenly she saw screenshots of her own Moments in her photo album.
"You!" Yu Na exclaimed. "You sneaked a peek at my phone!"
