Xue Yang abruptly averted his gaze from the phone screen. It was better not to video call his girlfriend when she wasn't with him, otherwise… It was unbearable.
"It's late. Let's get some sleep," he said.
Lin Xi lay back on the bed, holding the phone high above her. She was unaware that this posture was even more suggestive. Her slightly enchanting voice came through the speaker, "But I don't want to sleep yet."
Xue Yang also lay down on his side, propping the phone up against the wall so it faced him. "Then let's keep talking," he said, facing the screen as if he were facing her.
Lin Xi mirrored him, also turning onto her side as if they were truly face-to-face. She smiled sweetly and said, "Okay."
Whenever they were together, they never felt bored or awkward, even in silence. When they did talk, their conversations could span anything and everything. The topics seemed endless, flowing continuously from one to the next.
