Hearing Yan Jin give him another nickname, Yu Shu tried his best to widen his eyes, but with his cheeks pinched by Yan Jin, he could only mumble indistinctly, resentfully spitting out three words. “Pinch your face.”

“Say it again?” Yan Jin felt that Yu Shu’s cheeks felt quite nice and couldn’t help rubbing them with her fingertips. “If the answer doesn’t satisfy me, this pretty little face of yours will suffer.”

Yu Shu pursed his lips and didn’t say anything, but it was very obvious that he was unhappy.

Although Yan Jin didn’t use much force, Yu Shu had been teased again and again. Even a clay figurine would be provoked into anger, let alone Yu Shu who had grown up enveloped in love.

Because Yan Jin’s force was light, Yu Shu easily slapped away her hands. Without a word, he turned around and was about to leave.

[Wow, Yu Shu is angry.] [Tsk tsk, that’s what you get for not restraining yourself and always bullying our Yu Shu.]

“Not happy?” Seeing the person about to be angered into leaving by her, Yan Jin hurriedly grabbed the hem of Yu Shu’s clothes and said softly, “Don’t be angry. You won’t look good if you’re angry.”

Yu Shu let out a “hmph”. “You always bully me. What does it matter to you if I look good or not.”

“I just find you cute and can’t help teasing you a bit.” Yan Jin continued coaxing in a soft voice. “If you don’t like it, I won’t give you nicknames anymore in the future.”

“You shouldn’t have given me nicknames in the first place.” Yu Shu said discontentedly, “Even my fans haven’t given me as many nicknames as you. They also find me cute, but they’ve never teased me like this.”

Yan Jin spoke with full justification. “I do want to tease you like them, but I’m afraid you’ll blush.”

“What blush? Doesn’t exist!” Yu Shu was even more justified than Yan Jin. “In all my years wandering the world, I’ve never seen anything that could make me blush!”

[Wait, Yu Shu, don’t raise a flag!] [I suddenly have an ominous premonition.]

Yan Jin: “Really?”

Yu Shu nodded heavily. “Absolutely true!”

Yan Jin thought for a bit and sighed. “Nevermind then.”

“Just say it directly. I refuse to believe I’ll blush.” Seeing Yan Jin unmoved, Yu Shu even provoked her. “Unless you don’t dare say it.”

Yan Jin sighed again. “I do dare, but I’m afraid after hearing it, you’ll avoid me for three days.”

Yu Shu also browsed his own supertopic before and knew roughly how his fans called him. But Yan Jin didn’t pay attention to entertainment circles and definitely didn’t know his pet names.

Thinking of this, Yu Shu went to hook Yan Jin’s pinky with exceptional arrogance, full of confidence. “Then let’s pinky swear. If I avoid you, I’m a little dog!”

Yan Jin looked at her pinky hooked with Yu Shu’s and suddenly laughed.

“Baby.” Yan Jin’s tone was as gentle as coaxing a little kid, the end of the word dragged out long, even carrying a hint of tenderness. “You’re so cute.”

As soon as Yan Jin’s words landed, Yu Shu’s mouth instantly opened slightly. He stared blankly at Yan Jin.

After a good while, Yu Shu reacted and his face turned red. All his exposed skin was suffused with a deep blush.

Yu Shu was so flustered he even stuttered. “You, how could you call me that?!”

Yan Jin spread her hands. “Because in your supertopic, they all call you that.”

“They’re mom fans, treating me as their son, so they call me that.” Yu Shu was both embarrassed and resentful, his whole body red as if on fire. “You don’t treat me as your son, so you’re not allowed to say that word!”

Compared to the foot-stomping Yu Shu, Yan Jin was extremely calm. “Oh, whatever you say then.”

The latter gave Yan Jin an embarrassed and angry glare. Without saying a word, he turned and ran towards his own room.

Following that, a not-small sound of a door closing came from the quiet courtyard.

Yan Jin turned an ear to listen for movement. After discovering no sound of things being thrown from inside, she instantly laughed. “So shy.”

After saying that, Yan Jin shook her head, the laughter in her eyes nearly overflowing. “Little shy one.”

[Yu Shu, stand firm! How could you just get scared off.] [I quite understand Yu Shu. Last time my dad called me by my online name, I couldn’t take it. Most people can’t withstand this level of social death.]

After Yu Shu fled into his room, Yan Jin leisurely cleaned up the brush and ink, showing no signs of going to coax him.

Perhaps because Yan Jin was too calm, even the system that had been silent all along made a bubble.

[Host Yan Jin, Host Yu Shu’s emotions are very unstable right now. Are you really not going to check on him?]

The system actually revived?

She and Yu Shu had joked around so many times before. How come the system only appeared this time when she teased Yu Shu into shyness?

Yan Jin became suspicious, but didn’t show it on the surface.

“I can’t go over now.” Yan Jin chuckled lightly. “There has to be a limit to teasing. If I chase after him, that would be going too far.”
