Yur’s jaw dropped, her 0300cb67fb words trailing off as 9ac92707e4 her eyes met Haylan’s, eb395a7b43 who was sitting on 426669cd5d Chahyun’s lap.027e6ff2d2d937ee

Her eyes d78fff0f01 darted between f0fa48dd7e the two, 1fc221cee9 silently screaming. Haylan, feeling strangely f4213271e8 embarrassed, avoided her 4bb7062b1f gaze. He felt a 906267976d bit wronged, but caeebc4188 he didn’t feel 5f3ddd7543 the need to ad823b2926 explain himself.

Haylan took 6911ac297e his frustration 3e142903af out on 0399eb8871 the book, f69aa66d20 whose author af2ccd4f77 he didn’t 23da84a3fd even know. The book was truly c83cab4756 nonsensical. He found serious 3f7ff88e8e errors on every a2a86c0298 page.6b10a1265471eb6c

While Haylan corrected the 196e12326e errors, Chahyun kept readjusting 69db2ff9b0 him in his lap, 2f66674f04 grinning whenever their eyes a522a58bcf met. Haylan often wondered 3d5abdbe6a if he was 74c6ca9f28 even paying attention.2214433a54a681ed

He said cheerfully, nuzzling his cheek against Haylan’s hair. There wasn’t a trace of pity in his affectionate gaze. His constant grin was suspicious.c5c1889875eb4109

Chahyun was two-faced. He knew about Haylan’s 0ed4e7dd47 past and real age, 463d80083f yet he was sometimes 22c75fdd11 incredibly rude, while at 605dc149ec other times, he was f8babb1a6c surprisingly maintaining a certain 73365e1171 level of respect.087046d69303d81d

Sometimes, he seemed to e65bb2bd29 be treating him like 85819c886a a child, but the 911511a9e7 way he always addressed 904d9112ad him formally made Haylan 0a29285ecc feel like he was d6a3352885 being treated as an bb7d9b7f7a equal.40335079e4a9360a
