Chapter 13: He kissed her once.
"My first fan..." Kasumigaoka Utaha murmured, her beautiful eyes gazing at the handsome young man before her, sparkling with admiration.
"Is that alright?" Shi Chen asked softly.
"Of course!" Kasumigaoka Utaha excitedly agreed, but then immediately became shy: "N-but, could you wait until I finish writing?"
"That would be perfect." Shi Chen nodded with a smile.
At this time, Kasumigaoka Utaha was still so innocent.
"Hmm..." Kasumigaoka Utaha felt inexplicably embarrassed. She reached out, pinched two cookies, and put them in her mouth, trying to distract herself.
However, the texture of the biscuits surprised her a bit.
"This... is so delicious." Kasumigaoka Utaha covered her mouth in surprise.
"Thank you for the compliment."
"A compliment? Did Toki-kun do it himself?"
"Didn't expect that, did you?" Shi Chen smiled smugly.
"I didn't expect Toki-kun's cooking skills to be so good." Kasumigaoka Utaha pinched two more cookies and put them in her mouth.
"If you're living alone, you should at least know a skill."
"Does Toki-kun run the shop alone?"
"No, it was before. Now I have someone with me," Shi Chen said truthfully.
"So that's how it is."
"Okay, then I won't bother you any longer. I'm looking forward to reading your novel." Shi Chen got up to leave.
"I understand, please wait a little longer, Mr. Shi."
"There's no need to rush."
Shi Chen waved his hand and walked towards the cashier. A customer had just arrived, and he had to serve him.
Kasumigaoka Utaha's gaze returned to the cashier to serve customers as the time passed. She took a deep breath, focused her mind, and placed her hands on the keyboard again.
At this moment, her thoughts were even more numerous, and her inspiration flowed like a spring.
Previously, she was just writing casually, relying on her literary talent, but now she has a clearer motivation and a clearer goal.
The coffee shop remained quiet, with customers going about their own business without disturbing other patrons.
Occasionally, Shichen would go to the kitchen to taste the dishes Thor made. The dragon maid's talent was truly remarkable; the dishes tasted better and better.
Thor didn't find it boring at all, especially after Shichen tasted it and patted her head to comfort her, which gave him even more motivation.
All the dishes she tried went into her stomach, so the kitchen wasn't piled high with food.
The sky gradually darkened, and then, as if in the blink of an eye, the sky was invaded by night.
The coffee shop was nearly empty at this time of day; there were only one or two people having dinner, and absolutely no one drinking coffee.
Drinking coffee at this time probably means I won't want to sleep tonight.
Around seven o'clock, only Kasumigaoka Utaha was left in the store, and she was still engrossed in typing on the keyboard, her expression focused.
Shichen glanced at the sky outside the window and sat down opposite Kasumigaoka Utaha once again.
"Kasumigaoka-kun?"
At the first sound, Kasumigaoka Utaha did not respond, so Tokishi increased the volume.
"Kasumigaoka-kun!"
"Hmm?" Kasumigaoka Utaha finally reacted. She looked at Tokishi with a puzzled expression and asked, "What's wrong, Toki-kun?"
"It's getting late, Kasumigaoka-san, you should head back now. We can continue tomorrow." Tokishi pointed out the window.
Kasumigaoka Utaha glanced out the window following the finger pointing to the hour, only to realize that it was already dark.
"It's already this late."
"Yeah, it won't be safe to go back any later."
"I understand, then I'll head back now." Kasumigaoka Utaha didn't insist and began packing her things.
"Kasumigaoka hasn't finished eating the cookies yet, shall I pack them up for you?"
"This is troublesome."
"It's nothing."
After getting everything ready, Shichen escorted Kasumigaoka Utaha to the door and said, "Kasumigaoka Utaha, be careful on your way."
Kasumigaoka Utaha smiled and replied, "Thank you for your concern, Toki-kun. I will come again tomorrow."
"You're welcome anytime."
"Um."
Kasumigaoka Utaha turned and left, slowly blending into the night and soon disappearing from sight.
Shichen withdrew his gaze, returned to the shop, and closed it for a rest.
"Thor, it's almost time for dinner."
"Wait a moment, Lord Shichen, I'll have dinner ready right away!" Thor's excited voice came from the kitchen.
It seems she has already achieved something, which makes Shi Chen somewhat hopeful.
He ate a very full dinner; Thor's cooking was really delicious, much better than what he had eaten at restaurants before, and he couldn't help but finish two bowls of rice.
He was even a little worried that Thor might fatten him up in the future.
That evening, Shichen took a shower, put on his pajamas, and went back to his room. Sure enough, Thor was already in his bed.
She lay on her side on the bed, wearing pajamas, but the neckline was wide open, revealing her fair skin and two round breasts, which were very eye-catching.
Shi Chen stood at the door, looking at her helplessly: "Didn't we agree this morning that you weren't allowed to sleep in my room tonight?"
"Why? It's one thing for Lord Shichen not to let me help scrub his back, but why won't he let me help warm the bed?"
"Don't you even look at the weather? Do I need a warm bed? Are you trying to kill me with heat?" Shi Chen said irritably.
"It's alright, my skin is very cool, so you don't need to worry about the heat, Master Shichen."
"Didn't you say you were going to warm the bed?"
"Oh dear, Lord Shichen, you don't need to worry about such details."
"Sigh..." Shi Chen sighed and walked to the bedside.
"It's the last night. You have to sleep in your own room tomorrow, otherwise all that money spent on sheets and stuff will have been wasted."
"Okay!" Thor was immediately excited when he heard that Shi Chen agreed, and ignored what he said afterward.
As soon as Shichen climbed into bed and lay down, Thor grabbed his arm without hesitation and rubbed his little face against it.
"Why is Lord Shichen taking a bath? I think Lord Shichen is very clean."
The most obvious benefit of the divine body is that it is untouched by dust and dirt, and does not need to take a bath or go to the toilet.
"This is a bedtime ritual, it's very important," Shichen replied solemnly, lying quietly.
I hope I won't have any weird dreams tonight.
"A ritual? Should I take a shower too?"
"No need, it's just for tonight anyway."
"Eh~"
"Huh? Time for bed. I have to get up early to buy groceries tomorrow."
Thor has used up most of the ingredients today. If we don't buy any more tomorrow, we'll have to sell coffee.
"Okay," Thor replied honestly. She didn't ask for much; she just wanted to sleep together.
Nothing happened overnight. The next day, Shichen opened his eyes and breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as I don't dream, that's fine.
Thor didn't wake up as early as yesterday to peek at the time or his sleeping face. He was still sleeping peacefully with a faint smile on his little face.
She's sleeping soundly.
Shi Chen looked at her peaceful sleeping face and chuckled softly, unable to resist reaching out his other hand to touch her face.
Thor's face was chubby and incredibly smooth, giving Shi Chen an urge to pinch and tug at it. However, before he could make a move, Thor opened his eyes.
"Lord Time?" Thor blinked.
"Sorry, I woke you up." Shi Chen withdrew his hand.
"No, that's not true." Thor smiled brightly and pounced on Shichen.
"It's so nice to be able to see the time when I open my eyes, Master."
"So you can talk? But there's no reward."
"Huh?" Thor rested his chin on Shichen's chest, somewhat confused.
"never mind."
She was too cute for Shi Chen, so he couldn't resist getting up, hugging her, and kissing her on the cheek.
The chirping sound was very clear.
"Huh?" Thor was completely dumbfounded.
"Unwilling?" Shi Chen asked with a smile.
"No!" Thor quickly shook his head, excitedly replying, "I just didn't expect... I'm so happy! I want more!"
"Don't push your luck!" Shi Chen decisively pushed her away.
"Huh? What happened?"
"Don't you understand the importance of contentment?" Shi Chen ignored her and turned to get out of bed.
"At least make it symmetrical~" Thor pouted, sitting on the bed looking at him expectantly.
But Shichen remained unmoved and left the room directly for the bathroom, closing the door behind him.
"Lord Shichen—!"
Receiving no response, Thor lay helplessly on the bed, reaching out to touch her left cheek where Shichen had kissed her, and suddenly burst into a silly laugh.
Hehe~
When Shichen arrived at the bathroom, he closed the door but didn't brush his teeth immediately. Instead, he stared at himself in the mirror and then shook his head.
Thor had no idea how adorable he was, which made him unable to resist. He felt that he would fall for him in just a few days.
Sigh, it's really easy for a woman to pursue a man, let alone the fact that he already liked Thor. No man can resist a girl who takes the initiative.
Unless he doesn't like women.
Shi Chen decided he couldn't spoil her like this anymore; they had to sleep separately tonight!
He's a man of his word. If he said it would be a month, then it would be a month. How could he give in to temptation and do it early?
A month of emotional connection allows him to have no worries.
That's his pure heart.
