Give Me Heartthrobs 82

Chapter 82: Extra 4

Early in the morning, fearing she would wake Ye Qizhen, Wen Yu would always turn off the alarm as soon as possible.

The abruptly stopped alarm usually couldn’t wake Ye Qizhen, and today was no exception.

Wen Yu carefully moved Ye Qizhen’s arm draped over her waist, got out of bed lightly, picked up the loose T-shirt dropped on the carpet to put on, and then walked towards the bathroom.

Most of the time, Ye Qizhen woke up later than Wen Yu, especially after tossing and turning in bed the night before.

When waking up, Ye Qizhen lay on the bed and stretched her body lazily. Seeing it was seven o’clock, she sat up reluctantly. Fumbling around and not finding her own pajamas, she habitually grabbed Wen Yu’s nightdress and put it on.

In the bathroom, Wen Yu had just finished brushing her teeth when she saw Ye Qizhen walking towards her in the mirror, half-asleep.

Ye Qizhen walked behind Wen Yu, resting her chin on Wen Yu’s shoulder.

Eyes seemingly unable to prop open, still dozing off—quite a funny scene. Wen Yu let her hug. “Didn’t sleep enough?”

Ye Qizhen raised her arms to hug Wen Yu’s waist, humming lightly: “Mn~”

“Then why get up so early?”

“Have class this morning,” Ye Qizhen said in an aggrieved tone.

Wen Yu remembered Ye Qizhen’s class schedule and originally planned to wake her up after washing up. Looking at Ye Qizhen’s fluffy and slightly messy hair in the mirror, she couldn’t help laughing. “Hugged enough?”

“No.” Ye Qizhen hugged tighter. In front of Wen Yu, she was a childish ghost, dragging out a lazy voice of just waking up. “Student Wen Yuyu, discuss something with you—”

Ye Qizhen was most clingy when dazed, like after drinking, or waking up without enough sleep. Wen Yu loved seeing her like this. “What?”

“Let’s change apartments?”

“Why change?”

“Change to one closer to your company, so you can sleep a bit more in the morning,” Ye Qizhen explained.

“No need.” Wen Yu said while picking up the electric toothbrush and squeezing toothpaste. “I’m not you, sleeping in every day.”

Ye Qizhen wanted to say something more, but her mouth was blocked by the toothbrush Wen Yu stuffed in. She had to let go of Wen Yu and honestly take the toothbrush to start brushing.

When Ye Qizhen finished brushing her teeth, Wen Yu had also finished washing her face. She squeezed facial cleanser into her palm, rubbed out foam, and smeared it on Ye Qizhen’s face. Ye Qizhen felt Wen Yu was “ravaging” her under the guise of washing her face, so she dodged. “I’ll do it myself.”

Wen Yu smiled. “Don’t move.”

Ye Qizhen squinted, raising the corners of her mouth coquettishly. “Be gentle, okay?”

Wen Yu’s smile became brighter. A good mood in the morning could last the whole day.

Although Wen Yu said no need to change apartments, Ye Qizhen still put it on the agenda. Living in the apartment outside the school was convenient for her classes, but still a bit far for Wen Yu. Besides, she wanted to rent a two-bedroom apartment—one for them to live in, and the extra one as a study.

Seeing Ye Qizhen insisting on changing apartments, Wen Yu agreed, saying they would go look together on the weekend. She understood Ye Qizhen was considering her more.

Finding an apartment was tiring work, especially in the height of summer. Wanting all conditions to be suitable was even harder, inevitably requiring many trips. Ye Qizhen went to see several apartments in advance without telling Wen Yu, all in locations compromising between the company and the school. Finally, she picked the two most suitable ones, waiting for Wen Yu to choose.

It wasn’t until Friday night that Wen Yu knew Ye Qizhen had looked at apartments in advance. “Didn’t we agree to look together?”

“It’s too hot, same if I go alone.” Ye Qizhen spoke lightly. Working was harder than going to school; she didn’t want Wen Yu to run around on the weekend. “Actually, I didn’t go to many places, just followed the agent to see two or three.”

“You even got heatstroke yesterday.” Wen Yu grasped the key point. She didn’t know Ye Qizhen got heatstroke from looking for apartments.

“It’s okay.” Ye Qizhen smiled and brushed it off, quickly changing the subject. “There are two relatively suitable ones. We’ll go see them tomorrow. If you like them, we’ll settle on one.”

Wen Yu couldn’t do anything with her. Both had personalities preferring to wrong themselves rather than the other. Whatever happened to themselves was nothing, but it hurt when it happened to the other.

In the end, they rented the first apartment they saw, a two-bedroom apartment over sixty square meters. The master bedroom had a large balcony with floor-to-ceiling windows. Although the secondary bedroom was small, it was just right for a desk to serve as a study.

Renting this time, Ye Qizhen decorated more attentively, as if carefully arranging their own small home. On the prominent bookshelf in the living room were two photo frames: one was a photo of them wearing high school uniforms, and the other was their graduation wedding photo.

Ye Qizhen liked the balcony the most, specially laying a carpet and placing a small coffee table. At night, the two stayed on the balcony watching movies and eating snacks, listening to the rain when it rained, and watching the stars when it didn’t.

Every summer, Ye Qizhen would remember Wen Yu telling her she liked summer best because she met her. Recalling it at any time made her heart pound.

Regarding liking summer, Wen Yu had a more concrete perception. Two people gathering together enjoying the air conditioning and eating ice cream; Ye Qizhen sometimes resting on her lap like a lazy worm, chatting and laughing idly. The smell of summer was the fresh and pleasant lemon scent on Ye Qizhen when she hugged her after showering.

A month after moving, Ye Qizhen got her wish and adopted a kitten. It was a little orange cat, only over two months old, milky. Ye Qizhen named him Soda. Soda was a bit naughty, but as soon as he was fed, he would be obedient and coquettish.

The kitten was adopted from a friend of Qi Yun’s. Wen Yu happened to see Qi Yun posting on Moments looking for adoption that day. Knowing Ye Qizhen always wanted to raise a cat, she showed the kitten’s photo to Ye Qizhen. Ye Qizhen liked it immensely as expected, so Wen Yu told Qi Yun about it.

Ye Qizhen liked small animals usually. The first week Soda arrived home, the first thing she did upon returning was to sniff the cat. Seeing this, although Wen Yu didn’t say anything, she was full of helplessness inside.

“Soda, come here~” Ye Qizhen liked teasing the little guy with a cat teaser, calling his name. The little guy was smart; before long, he would react upon hearing “Soda,” seeming to know it was his name.

Ten o’clock. Seeing Ye Qizhen playing with Soda for half an hour and still enjoying it, Wen Yu hugged Ye Qizhen’s waist. “Shower time.”

Ye Qizhen didn’t think much, saying casually, “You wash first.”

Wen Yu: “…”

Silence for a while. Wen Yu didn’t make a sound, nor did she get up to go to the bathroom to shower. Ye Qizhen realized belatedly. She turned to look at Wen Yu, only to see Wen Yu looking at her quietly.

Sensing something wrong, Ye Qizhen smiled and asked, “What’s wrong?”

Wen Yu said with a face full of something: “Nothing.”

Ye Qizhen had a bad feeling. Ignoring Soda rolling and acting cute by her legs, she leaned in front of Wen Yu, looking like she was obediently admitting a mistake. getting close, she realized Wen Yu had specifically sprayed her favorite perfume today. She hugged Wen Yu, clinging and asking, “Angry with me?”

Wen Yu pushed Ye Qizhen, leaving her hanging instead, saying lukewarmly, “I’m going to shower.”

Ye Qizhen was particularly afraid of Wen Yu sulking and being unhappy. She kissed Wen Yu’s lips. “Together?”
