「The next day.」
January 2nd. It was still a day off.
Jiang Qiuqiu had taken a break from her livestream from the 1st to the 5th, giving her a four-day vacation. This would be her last stretch of rest before school started.
Once she resud her stream on the 5th, she would go live every day until school began. After that, she would switch to streaming once or twice a week.
Her break was so long this ti that her fans and followers were getting restless. ’Well,’ Jiang Qiuqiu thought, ’they might as well get used to it. After all, this is how things will be from now on.’
’I’ll spend these few days off having fun with Black Hole!’
Thinking of Black Hole, she realized he hadn’t co over yet today. Jiang Qiuqiu waited another five minutes, and when he still hadn’t shown up, she wrapped a scarf around her neck and headed out the door herself.
Jiang Qiuqiu rang the doorbell at the entrance of his small villa.
The door opened quickly. When Mo Si saw Jiang Qiuqiu holding a thermal container, he imdiately reached out, took it from her, and pulled her inside.
"What are you doing here?" Mo Si asked.
"Well, you didn’t co over," Jiang Qiuqiu said with a smile. "I was worried sothing might’ve happened, so I ca looking for you."
"You could have just sent a comm, and I would’ve co to you. The wind and snow are pretty bad outside, and you don’t like the cold. You should have just waited for ."
"So what if it’s cold? I wanted to co see you, and I didn’t feel like sending a comm. Is there a problem with that?"
What could he say to that? Mo Si could only be secretly delighted.
"But was sothing going on here?"
"It’s nothing..." It was a long story, but it could also be a short one.
Mo Si had originally planned to confess his feelings today and ask Qiuqiu to be his legally recognized partner. But when he woke up that morning, he realized all his clothes were too monotonous and wanted to wear a more youthful outfit to see her.
He ended up spending half an hour trying on one outfit after another but still couldn’t make a decision. And that’s why he was late.
But it was all right; Qiuqiu had co to see him.
And she’d brought sothing delicious!
There were diced bamboo shoot and pork buns, soy milk, and a few layered beef pancakes—all of his favorites.
After washing up, he started eating breakfast with a blissful expression on his face.
"Qiuqiu, you eat too."
"Mhm, I am. You go ahead and eat up. Have so more." Watching his contented expression as he ate, Jiang Qiuqiu couldn’t help but smile. "Oh, right, Black Hole. I took a break from my stream and won’t be back until the 5th. How about we go to the Federal Main City tomorrow and look around?"
"We’ve never gone out and done sothing fun together."
"Okay," Mo Si nodded. "We’ll go wherever you want to go."
They finished their breakfast amidst idle chatter. Mo Si’s ho didn’t have a housekeeping robot, so he dutifully took the plates to the kitchen to wash them.
After washing the dishes, he placed the clean plates back into the thermal container.
The two of them sat down again, and Mo Si began to praise her. "Qiuqiu, the buns you make are so delicious."
"You like them? If you do, we can have buns again tomorrow." ’After all, she could make a big batch at once.’
"I do," Mo Si nodded quickly. "But I don’t just want to eat them tomorrow. I want to eat buns made by Qiuqiu every single day from now on."
’He’s already talking about forever, huh?’
In such a romantic mont, Jiang Qiuqiu certainly wasn’t going to refuse him. She played along, "Of course. As long as you don’t get tired of them."
"I’ll never get tired of them," Mo Si said, his expression exceptionally serious as he looked at her.
’His serious expression was just too cute. Jiang Qiuqiu had the strongest urge to ruffle his hair.’
"So, Qiuqiu... are you also willing to be with forever?"
"I am." ’At least, in this mont, she wasn’t opposed to the idea.’
’Usually, when a couple’s conversation reaches this point, it’s ti for a hug. And since he loves kissing so much, he must be wanting a kiss right now.’
Jiang Qiuqiu ntally rolled her eyes at his terrible habit of always wanting to kiss, yet she couldn’t help but feel a sliver of anticipation.
But what ca this ti wasn’t a kiss. Instead, he took her hand and said, "Then, Qiuqiu, will you marry ?!"
Jiang Qiuqiu: !!?
His words exploded in her ears like a clap of thunder.

"What did you say?"
