Shu Xian skipped some parts of the video. When she saw herself laughing and then crying from time to time, she already felt embarrassed, wondering what other things Pan An had suffered from her last night.
As she skipped some parts, she saw the part where she was playing rock, paper, scissors with Pan An, making her open her mouth in shock.
"I-I… we…"
"Just watch," Pan An said, giving her a toast on her plate as Shu Xian continued to watch what happened next.
"Pan Aaaaaaan… I can\'t sleep like this," Shu Xian started, already tugging the professor\'s shirt.
"What do you want me to do? Sleep beside you?"
"Yes!"
Shu Xian immediately nodded in the video, the one watching this now sighing as she felt utterly embarrassed.
"That is not a bad idea! If you sleep beside me, I would immediately fall asleep!"
"Alright," Pan An said, already lying beside her. "I\'ll leave when you fall asleep, okay?"
"Nooooo…" Shu Xian pouted at Pan An in the video, shaking her head like a child. "I want you here until the morning. I want you to wake before me in the morning!"
Pan An arched a brow at her, "Aren\'t you asking too much?"
"Nooo… do you want me to cry again?"
With a sigh, Pan An finally gave in. With him already sharing the blanket with Shu Xian, Pan An stared straight into her eyes and gave her a small smile.
"Go close your eyes, then."
"Will you disappear when I do?"
When Shu Xian heard what she replied to Pan An, she immediately hit pause, pushing the phone away from her.
"E-enough… I don\'t want to watch it anymore," Shu Xian said, making Pan An laugh as he took a small bite of his egg and chewed before talking.
"Come on, watch the next parts! Look how much I did for you!"
With Shu Xian glaring at Pan An, she reluctantly got the phone from the middle of the table and then continued to play the video, what had happened next making her furrow her brows as she groaned.
"Geez… nnggh! Remind me not to drink too much alcohol when I\'m with someone…"
Pan An scoffed, "That\'s beyond my control. Only you can discipline yourself."
With Shu Xian sticking her tongue out at him, she continued watching the video, what she was seeing next, making her heart race in her chest.
It was already silent in the video, Shu Xian, already dozing off as Pan An watched her sleep. In the video, it was showing Pan An\'s back since he is facing Shu Xian and patting her shoulder for her to fall asleep.
It was as if Pan An was taking care of a child—only to fall asleep when he or she could feel the pats of his or her guardian or parent.
In the video, it stayed like this for a while. With Shu Xian in the video letting out soft snores, it made Shu Xian scrunch her nose up in disgust, not imagining herself to snore.
However, what happened next made her eyes widen in surprise, Pan An, also not expecting what he had heard since he indeed did not watch the video in full.
"Oh, Shu Xian," Pan An called out to the sleeping lady in the video. "You may be so troublesome… but I like you this way, oddly."
With Shu Xian and Pan An now looking at each other as the video continued to play, what he said next in the video was something that made Shu Xian look at her omelet, already shy about looking at Pan An directly.
"You\'re irresistibly cute… I don\'t mind taking care of you this way."
With the sound of Pan An kissing the top of Shu Xian\'s head heard, Pan An then choked on his eggs, immediately stealing his phone away from Shu Xian.
The moment he exited the video and closed his phone and had pushed it aside, he got his glass of water and drank it in one go, clearing his throat as he mumbled to himself that was enough for Shu Xian to hear.
"D-don\'t mind that," Pan An said, "It was just said at the spur of the moment. What\'s important is what happened before—you gave me so much trouble."
With that, Shu Xian awkwardly nodded, getting her fork that was set on the table. She then felt comfort when she started to get the first piece of her egg in her mouth.
Being the stress eater that she is, she ate them quickly, even faster than Pan An.
With the professor surprised to see Shu Xian act this way, he blinked his eyes a few times, warning the young lady before her.
"Slow down… you might choke on your food."
"Mm."
With Shu Xian getting her glass of water and then drinking half of it, she started to munch on her toast, her eyes shyly landing on Pan An before her.
"Pan An," she softly called out, the professor also looking at her. "I\'m sorry for last night."
"It\'s alright," Pan An said, already looking at his omelet and then cut a piece of it before he put it in his mouth. "You know your limit when it comes to alcohol now, yeah? Control."
"Yes," Shu Xian replied with a nod, continuing to munch on her toast. "I won\'t cause you trouble again."
Soon after, their rainy breakfast atmosphere went silent. However, even in silence, it was comfortable sitting together even though there was nothing to talk about.
With the rain continuing to pour, Shu Xian and Pan An looked outside the window, their Sunday morning sort of relaxing despite the probable stress that the young lady might have given the professor last night.
As Shu Xian was staring outside the window with a small smile on her face, Pan An discreetly looked at her. With a smile creeping on his face as well, he remembered what he had told Shu Xian a while ago, a sudden thought coming to his mind as he continued to watch her secretly.
\'But seriously… it\'s okay to cause me trouble—even twice a month is okay.\'
