00:00I'm a freshman computer science student at H University, who is considered the most innocent girl on campus, but I
00:06have a secret.
00:08Every night at midnight, someone sends me voice messages, he calls me baby, remembers my period before I do.
00:15Fight strangers online who trash talk me and begs to meet in person while I keep saying no.
00:20Until I saw the live stream of Julian Blackwood, who is the country's most arrogant and popular esports god.
00:27He took my favorite tulip. His long eyelashes looked damp.
00:31Baby, I know you're watching. Stop hiding in my headphones and let me be yours in the flesh.
00:39It all started here. After a fight with my parents, I ran away from home to seek refuge with my
00:45brother.
00:45Alexander Hayes had no choice but to bring me back to his training base.
00:49A few boys who were originally playing games immediately gathered around.
00:55Alexander, you're such a dog. How could you lay your hands on someone so young?
01:00Alexander kicked the boy.
01:03Shut up. This is my actual biological sister.
01:06My brother gently rubbed my head.
01:09Chloe Hayes, say hi.
01:12Hello.
01:13I spoke obediently, quietly fixing the bangs that Alexander had messed up.
01:18The boys instantly turned into cavemen.
01:20Oh my god, her voice is so sweet. My heart is pounding like crazy.
01:25Alexander waved them off in disgust, shielding me behind him.
01:28Go pound somewhere else. My sister's voice is naturally like this.
01:33The door to the training room was pushed open.
01:36Julian Blackwood is here.
01:37The boys instantly dropped their smiles, returned to their seats, and put on their headsets.
01:43Seeing who it was, my brother's expression changed slightly.
01:46The man's gaze lingered on my pink pleated skirt for a few seconds, his voice as cold as his looks.
01:52Everyone, three hours of extra practice.
01:54No one dared to make a sound.
01:56The atmosphere fell into dead silence.
01:59Fly team captain, Julian.
02:01The country's top Eastport star, with a face that rivaled any trending idol,
02:06and a personality so cold it made people shrink back in fear.
02:10Sensing the man's gaze, I bit the bullet and stepped forward.
02:16Sensing the man's gaze, his voice flat.
02:19Speak properly. Stop acting cute.
02:22I stood there, frozen.
02:24His words hit like ice water.
02:26But I couldn't look away from that face.
02:29Then my pocket buzzed.
02:3399 new notifications.
02:36All from the same pinned contact.
02:38My online boyfriend wouldn't stop messaging me,
02:40and the man who just told me to stop acting cute was still staring at me like I was something
02:45disgusting.
02:47After Julian left, Alexander patted my shoulder comfortingly.
02:51Chloe, don't take it to heart.
02:54Julian isn't a bad guy.
02:55He just naturally dislikes girls with sweet styles.
02:58The others chimed in.
03:00Don't be sad.
03:02Julian hates the cutesy voice in princess dresses, but we all love them.
03:06Yeah, you're so cute.
03:09Let's add each other on WhatsApp.
03:11Alexander went into defense mode again.
03:14Final warning.
03:15My sister just started her freshman year of college.
03:20She's very innocent, so don't even think about it.
03:22Then he looked at me, speaking with earnest intent.
03:25Chloe, ignore these punks.
03:28If they're friends with your brother, they can't be any good.
03:31The others curled their lips.
03:33Maybe your sister already has a boyfriend and just hasn't told you.
03:36My heart skipped a beat.
03:38I gripped my phone tightly,
03:40blocking the endless stream of new messages popping up from my online boyfriend.
03:45My brother confidently retorted,
03:48Impossible!
03:49My sister is the sweetest!
03:50That night, I stubbornly refused to go home,
03:54and Alexander was worried about me staying in a hotel alone.
03:57He found an empty bedroom at the base and set it up simply for me.
04:01Chloe, I'm staying right next door.
04:04Call me if you need anything.
04:05Okay, thanks Alexander.
04:07After closing the door, I finally dared to open my phone.
04:11The unread messages from my pinned contact showed 99+.
04:15Baby, we haven't played our duo matches today.
04:18Baby, it's been two hours.
04:20I, I miss you a little.
04:22Baby, did you go eat dinner?
04:24It's okay, I'll wait for you.
04:26Hahaha, baby,
04:28someone on the forum just said that
04:30if a girlfriend doesn't reply for over three hours,
04:32it means she found someone new.
04:34They're crazy, I don't believe that at all.
04:38I was just feeling quite relieved.
04:40I clicked on the next voice message.
04:43The man's deliberately deepened,
04:45raspy voice sounded.
04:47Baby, is that guy better than me?
04:49Will he buy you a full set of skins?
04:51Can he remember your period?
04:53Does he have an eight-pack?
04:58Transfer, 1314.
05:01Transfer, 5200.
05:03Baby, do, do you still want me?
05:06I quickly typed to comfort him.
05:08Don't overthink it.
05:09I went to see my brother
05:10and didn't have time to check my phone.
05:12He was so excited that he made several typos.
05:16Hehe, I knew baby still loves me.
05:18Baby, why do you seem a bit unhappy?
05:20Although I didn't know how he could tell
05:22I was in a bad mood from just one short sentence.
05:25I had a fight with my parents
05:27and my brother's friend seems to hate me a little.
05:29He was filled with righteous indignation.
05:32Hate you?
05:33Does he even deserve to?
05:35How could anyone be so blind?
05:38What he needs right now is to take a piss
05:39and look at his own reflection.
05:42Next time that guy runs his mouth,
05:44I'll curse him out for you.
05:47My online boyfriend's trash-talking skills
05:49were the best I had ever seen.
05:52During the summer break after the college entrance exams,
05:55I played games with a vengeance.
05:58After winning over a dozen matches,
06:00I was matched with a small group.
06:02Their skills were absolute trash.
06:04I played my heart out.
06:06But I still couldn't turn the tide.
06:08After a narrow defeat,
06:10the group accused me and another guy of dragging them down.
06:12I had never been good at arguing.
06:15I barely managed a few words before they harshly cut me off.
06:19Just as I was about to swallow my anger once again,
06:22the guy who had been silent spoke up faintly.
06:25I've seen toilets and bathrooms,
06:27but I've never seen one in someone's mouth.
06:29The group got anxious.
06:33Why are you cursing at people?
06:35I'm not cursing at people.
06:37The group was sarcastic.
06:39You're defending her so much.
06:40Are you her simp?
06:41Well, you guys are so good at tossing the blame.
06:45Are you chefs?
06:46The man fought one against three,
06:48not losing ground in the slightest.
06:50The group was roasted so badly,
06:52they apologized dejectedly before leaving.
06:55Later, we bumped into each other a few more times by chance.
06:59and naturally added each other on WhatsApp.
07:02I realized something about the man.
07:04Although he had a sharp tongue,
07:06he was actually a sweet puppy
07:08who knew exactly how to coax people.
07:10After a long silence, he suddenly acted cute.
07:14Baby, I want to see you.
07:16I tried to change the subject.
07:18You said you have an eight pack, is that true?
07:20He sent a shy sticker.
07:22If I do, can we meet?
07:24I hesitated.
07:25What if you don't like me after we meet?
07:27How is that possible?
07:29Am I crazy?
07:31Baby, no matter what you look like,
07:33Death Year, I will first in Fabian for first sight.
07:36He had begged to meet at least a dozen times,
07:39and I had brushed off every single one
07:42with half-hearted excuses.
07:43I hesitated for a long time,
07:46not knowing what to reply.
07:48Looking at my low battery,
07:49I decided to go find my brother
07:51to borrow a charging cable first.
07:53I opened the door,
07:54and bumped right into a wall of a man.
07:58I looked up and met Julian's cold eyes.
08:01The hallway was dark.
08:03It was just the two of us.
08:05At such an intimate distance,
08:07the visual impact of the man's exquisite features
08:10was incredibly strong.
08:12Thin eyelids,
08:13thick and delicate eyelashes,
08:14and a tiny mole on his high-bridged nose.
08:17Striking and bold,
08:18my heart was still pounding from the collision.
08:20I could smell the faint scent of his shower gel,
08:23clean and sharp.
08:25Bro.
08:26Hello, Julian.
08:28I changed my words at the last second,
08:31glancing nervously at my Lotso Bear slip nightgown
08:34and the matching bow in my hair.
08:36It was the standard sweetheart outfit he hated the most.
08:39His gaze swept over me from head to toe.
08:42That one look made me want to sink into the floor.
08:45I held my breath.
08:47He didn't say anything else.
08:49He just turned and walked away,
08:51leaving me standing there in my ridiculous nightgown,
08:54heart still racing.
08:57Julian's brows furrowed almost imperceptibly.
09:00Chloe, you can live here,
09:02but we need to set some ground rules.
09:06Okay.
09:07I blinked, surprised that he actually knew my name.
09:12First, don't try to get close to me.
09:15I have no interest in making friends with kids.
09:19Second, unless necessary,
09:22keep communication and encounters to a minimum.
09:25I nodded.
09:27Third, don't act cute all the time.
09:32I watched Julian's back as he headed toward the bathroom.
09:36My brother came out of his room after seeing my message
09:39and handed me the charging cable.
09:42Chloe, was Julian mean to you again?
09:44I shook my head.
09:46Alexander yawed.
09:48Julian just doesn't know how to speak softly.
09:50A lot of girls who confessed to him in the past
09:53ended up crying from anger.
09:55Be a good girl.
09:56Let's just ignore him from now on.
09:59Go to sleep.
10:01Julian disappeared into the bathroom.
10:03The same bathroom where my boyfriend
10:06always sent his voice messages from late at night.
10:10Back in my bedroom,
10:12my online boyfriend sent a photo.
10:14Long, slender fingers lifted the hem of his shirt,
10:17the knuckles tinged with a faint pink.
10:19Under the dim light,
10:21his abs looked even more defined.
10:23Further down,
10:24the image grew darker,
10:26showing a distinct bulge.
10:27As a good girl who grew up in a village
10:30with her grandparents,
10:31I rarely spoke to the opposite sex.
10:33I had never seen this level of temptation.
10:36I buried my face in the pillow.
10:39Only after a long while did I offer my praise.
10:43It's very big.
10:45Alexander had been obsessed with working out recently,
10:48occasionally asking me to feel if his biceps were big.
10:51So, praising a guy for having big muscles
10:54shouldn't be wrong, right?
10:56It's alright, just 18.
10:58I was confused.
11:00Uh, aren't you 21?
11:03Did my online boyfriend lie about his age before?
11:05Or was I overthinking this whole thing?
11:08I stared at the chat screen,
11:10my face still warm.
11:12The screen kept showing my online boyfriend was typing.
11:19Baby, so you actually care about this?
11:23Actually, what I meant just now was the dormant.
11:26State.
11:2621 isn't impossible if I try hard enough.
11:29You can inspect the goods after we meet in person.
11:32If I'm lying,
11:33I won't be able to lift my head for the rest of my life.
11:36And I don't mean the head up.
11:39Looking at this completely disjointed conversation,
11:42I finally realized what he meant.
11:44The heat in my cheeks,
11:46which had finally gone down,
11:48flared up again.
11:49I silently cursed.
11:51What a closet flirt.
11:53I hurriedly typed back,
11:55Good night.
11:57That night,
11:58I didn't sleep well.
12:03In my dream,
12:04under the relentless pleading of my online boyfriend,
12:07I agreed to meet in person.
12:09But when I arrived at the private cinema,
12:11he was nowhere to be seen.
12:13Just as I was getting unbearably anxious,
12:16someone suddenly patted my shoulder.
12:18I turned around happily,
12:20but I didn't see my clingy puppy.
12:22Instead,
12:22I saw Julian's fierce,
12:24handsome face.
12:25I subconsciously tried to escape,
12:27but the man pulled me back into the seat,
12:30trapping me between his arms.
12:32And slowly leaned in,
12:33an overwhelming sense of dominance
12:35completely enveloped me.
12:37Chloe,
12:39want to inspect the goods?
12:41I jolted awake.
12:43While washing up,
12:44I didn't know if it was the lingering effect of the nightmare.
12:47But I couldn't shake the feeling that the base's bathroom
12:50looked unusually similar to something.
12:53The background of the abs photo my online boyfriend sent last night.
12:58During advanced math class,
13:00my brother sent a WhatsApp message.
13:03Chloe,
13:04Julian is treating us to a big meal today.
13:07Don't go to the cafeteria after school.
13:09I'll come pick you up later.
13:11Thinking of my three-point agreement with Julian,
13:14I was just about to politely decline.
13:16Alexander sent a voice message.
13:18My phone is about to die.
13:20Don't wander off from the gate.
13:21I'll be there soon.
13:22I had no choice but to put my phone away
13:25and hurry to the school gate.
13:26Soon,
13:27a white Ferrari stopped in front of me,
13:30drawing envious glances from many passing students.
13:33I had no mood to admire the luxury car,
13:35looking around for Alexander's electric scooter,
13:38until the owner of the luxury car
13:40rolled down the window and spoke coldly.
13:42Chloe,
13:43your brother got detained for not wearing a helmet.
13:45Even with sunglasses on,
13:47Julian was still recognized.
13:49A few nearby students screamed his name and rushed over.
13:54Julian!
13:55It's actually Julian!
13:57I'm your fan!
14:01Get in.
14:02I was just about to pull the passenger door open
14:04when the man reminded me.
14:06Get in the back.
14:07After I took my seat,
14:08Julian lightly stepped on the gas pedal
14:10and made an apologetic gesture to the fanatic fans.
14:14The passenger seat is reserved for my wife.
14:19It sounded like an explanation,
14:21but also like a flex.
14:23Oh.
14:23I nervously pinched the bow on my skirt,
14:26racking my brain for a response.
14:29She must be very beautiful, right?
14:32The man stayed silent for a moment,
14:34his voice deep.
14:37She's quite shy.
14:38We haven't met in person yet.
14:41But no matter what she looks like,
14:43she's the most beautiful in my heart.
14:45My brother once mentioned that Julian
14:47came from a prominent family with immense wealth.
14:50Playing esports was purely a personal hobby for him.
14:53For a princeling like him to have a relationship without ever meeting,
14:57it must be an arranged business marriage.
15:00There's no way he's doing the online dating thing like me.
15:03Seeing Julian look a bit lonely,
15:05I clumsily comforted him.
15:08Maybe you've already met,
15:09you just didn't recognize each other.
15:11Impossible.
15:13People in love have a connection.
15:15I would definitely recognize her at first glance.
15:18Talking about his girlfriend,
15:20the corners of Julian's lips curled up slightly,
15:23revealing a faint smile that was drop-dead gorgeous.
15:26But when his gaze fell on me,
15:28the temperature suddenly dropped.
15:30Alexander said you're a fan of mine?
15:34How could my brother,
15:36that big mouth,
15:37blab about everything?
15:39Find another esports player to like.
15:41I hope you understand.
15:42My girlfriend
15:44definitely wouldn't want me having a female fan
15:46who stares straight at me for more than 10 seconds every time.
15:52Sorry.
15:53I awkwardly looked away.
15:56We arrived at the dinner spot in silence.
15:58After getting out of the car,
16:00the boys surrounded me.
16:01Without Alexander to block them,
16:03their attentiveness left me a bit overwhelmed.
16:09Chloe, while your brother isn't here,
16:11let's add each other on WhatsApp, okay?
16:13I recognized him as the guy
16:14who had been the most enthusiastic toward me
16:17when we first met, Jason Smith.
16:19The others let out meaningful laughs.
16:21Julian, we're reporting this.
16:23There's a toad hitting on Chloe.
16:25I also instinctively looked toward Julian for help.
16:28Dating isn't banned on the team.
16:30No need to report to me.
16:31Julian didn't even bat an eyelid,
16:33his well-defined fingers tapping on his phone screen.
16:36At the same time,
16:37my WhatsApp kept popping up with messages
16:39from my online boyfriend.
16:42Baby, you forgot your good morning kiss today.
16:47By the way, baby,
16:48I recently met a girl
16:49whose voice sounds a bit like yours.
16:51But don't worry,
16:52I never even looked her in the eye.
16:54My finger hovered over the screen.
16:56A girl whose voice sounds like mine.
16:59He never even looked her in the eye?
17:01My boyfriend's next messages
17:03came through one after another.
17:05She's obviously putting on a cutesy voice on purpose.
17:07It's nowhere near as nice
17:09as my baby's natural voice.
17:10I thought of how Julian told me to stop acting cute,
17:13how he refused to look at me,
17:15how he had no interest in making friends with kids.
17:18A strange feeling crept into my chest,
17:21but I shook it off before it could take shape.
17:23There was no way.
17:24Absolutely no way.
17:26Baby, aren't I amazing?
17:28Can you reward your good boy with a hug in person?
17:31Day N of wanting to meet you in real life.
17:34I stared at the screen for a long time.
17:37Somewhere in this city,
17:38my boyfriend was counting the days
17:40until we could finally meet,
17:41and I still had no idea that we already had,
17:44or that the man who told me to stop acting cute
17:47was counting them too.
17:49Waiting for the food was incredibly boring.
17:53Jason and the others suggested playing a round of a game
17:55and invited me to join.
17:57My polite refusal failed,
17:59so I had to pause the chat with my boyfriend.
18:01I'm out with friends right now.
18:03I'll text you later tonight.
18:04The other side instantly turned into a whiny baby.
18:08Baby, how many friends?
18:10Guys or girls?
18:11It's okay, I'm not jealous, just asking casually.
18:14Me, five or six?
18:16All guys?
18:17The next second,
18:19Julian suddenly stood up from his chair with a swoosh,
18:22startling me.
18:23A teammate turned to Julian,
18:25suggesting he add me as a friend in the game
18:27and play a round together.
18:28I couldn't help but feel a bit expectant too.
18:31As a former fan of his skills,
18:33I couldn't resist wanting to seize the chance
18:35to play a game with my idol.
18:37I don't play casual matches.
18:40I showed my game screen,
18:42trying to prove myself.
18:44Actually, my skills are okay.
18:46I bow-heat drag you down.
18:48Take a look.
18:49Sorry, I don't add the opposite sex.
18:53Also, don't forget our three rules.
18:56Julian didn't even deign to glance at my phone.
18:59But his gaze did drift toward it for a split second.
19:03My screen was still lit up from my last message to my boyfriend.
19:07Baby, I miss you so much.
19:09I quickly turned the phone face down on the table.
19:12Did he see that?
19:14He got up and went outside,
19:16showing off his self-discipline in this manner.
19:18This answer was expected by the teammates.
19:21Don't be sad, Chloe.
19:22Even without Julian,
19:24the rest of us can carry you.
19:26Jason noticed my disappointment
19:27and leaned in close to my ear
19:29to comfort me in a low voice.
19:31I subconsciously dodged him.
19:33I don't really like close contact
19:35with people I'm not familiar with.
19:37Chloe, Alexander said you never play games,
19:39so let's start with the easiest.
19:41Jason stopped mid-sentence
19:43and looked at me in disbelief.
19:45Wait.
19:46Chloe,
19:46your in-game playtime is even longer than mine.
19:50I play in secret.
19:52Don't tell my brother.
19:54Jason's mouth twitched
19:55and he gave a dry laugh.
19:58You're quite a unique good girl, aren't you?
20:02The match ended.
20:03The boys looked at me
20:05with a mix of excitement and astonishment.
20:07Holy crap!
20:09It's like watching Juliet
20:10uproot a weeping willow in real life.
20:13Chloe,
20:14with such an innocent face,
20:15how is your play style so brutal?
20:19You've got a bit of Julian's vibe.
20:21It's a pussy Julian didn't join just now,
20:24otherwise he'd definitely change his mind about you.
20:27Alexander arrived late,
20:29holding a traffic ticket
20:30and a newly bought green helmet.
20:32The boys loyally changed the subject,
20:35not mentioning a word about my gaming,
20:37after we had our fill of food and drinks.
20:40Back at the base,
20:41everyone gathered in twos and threes,
20:44laughing and messing around.
20:45Only the air around Julian
20:47was terrifyingly heavy.
20:49Ever since he got back,
20:51he had been staring at his phone,
20:53looking as if he wanted to burn a hole through it.
20:56Alexander was clueless.
20:58Who pissed off Julian?
21:00No idea,
21:00but anyone who can make our Julian this flustered
21:02is definitely a badass.
21:04I worship him.
21:05Let's all be careful today.
21:07Nobody walk into the line of fire.
21:09Alexander looked at me and warned.
21:11Especially you, Chloe.
21:13Chloe, stay out of Julian's way.
21:16By the way, Chloe,
21:17you've been out for a few days now.
21:20When do you plan to go home
21:21and apologize to Mom and Dad?
21:23I hung my head,
21:24staying silent.
21:26Alexander sighed.
21:28Chloe,
21:29you've always been the most obedient
21:30since we were kids.
21:31Why do you have to be so stubborn about this?
21:34Alexander,
21:34I'm a little sleepy.
21:36I gave Alexander a sweet smile,
21:38then headed straight back to the bedroom.
21:40In just the time it took to eat,
21:43my online boyfriend had sent over a dozen messages.
21:46I patiently typed back to each one.
21:48He sent a crying meme.
21:50Baby wifey,
21:51I lied.
21:52I'm jealous,
21:53I care a lot,
21:54and I'm super duper incredibly unhappy.
21:57The wild men out there are all bad news.
21:59Absolutely do not give them your contact infos.
22:02Too late,
22:04Jason had already added my WhatsApp.
22:06Besides,
22:07wasn't he also a wild man
22:08who relentlessly pestered me
22:10for my WhatsApp back then?
22:12He forgot his roots so quickly,
22:14my online boyfriend was so mad
22:16he couldn't even type properly.
22:18Why didn't anyone help you reject the harassment?
22:20If I were there,
22:21I definitely wouldn't have let him succeed.
22:24During the party,
22:26I secretly drank quite a bit
22:27of the whiskey Julian brought.
22:29I wasn't usually a drinker,
22:31but everyone kept toasting.
22:33Julian's teammates were so enthusiastic.
22:36I lost track of how many glasses I'd had.
22:39By midnight,
22:40my head was spinning.
22:42In the early morning,
22:43my mouth was terribly dry.
22:45I went to the living room
22:46to pour a glass of water.
22:48Half asleep,
22:49I gradually pushed open
22:51the ajar bedroom door
22:52and prepared to go back to sleep.
22:54The sheets felt different,
22:55cooler.
22:56They smelled faintly of cologne.
22:58My drunk brain didn't register
23:00any of this when I rolled over,
23:01my arm bumped into something hard.
23:04Following a muffled groan,
23:06I was forcefully lifted from the bed
23:08like a little chick.
23:09Forced awake,
23:10I looked around at the luxurious decor.
23:12Then at the man's gloomy face,
23:15my hungover brain instantly sobered up.
23:19Julian was only wearing shorts.
23:21The muscle lines of his bare upper body
23:24were as smooth and handsome as a sculpture.
23:26A silver necklace at his collarbone
23:29gleamed with a cold light,
23:30further highlighting his long, fair neck.
23:33His Adam's apple even had a faint pink flush.
23:37His lean waist didn't have an ounce of extra fat.
23:40And further down was...
23:42I squeezed my eyes shut.
23:44I looked at my own palm,
23:46still feeling the phantom sensation
23:48of what I'd touched.
23:49Recalling the sensation just now,
23:51a layer of cold sweat broke out on my forehead.
23:54The number 21 inexplicably popped into my head.
23:58Chloe.
23:59Julian casually grabbed a white t-shirt
24:02and pulled it on.
24:03Every word seemingly squeezed through his teeth.
24:07I'm sorry.
24:09I think I walked into the wrong room.
24:10My legs went weak from fear.
24:13My brain completely short-circuited.
24:15I could only mutter I'm sorry over and over again.
24:19Get out.
24:19Julian forced down his emotions.
24:21I had just touched the doorknob
24:24when Alexander pushed open the bedroom door.
24:26I quickly darted back to Julian's bed,
24:29covering myself tightly with the blanket.
24:32Julian,
24:33that batch of air-freated tulips you bought is almost here.
24:36The boss wants you to give him a specific address.
24:39Hiding under the covers,
24:40I didn't even dare to breathe.
24:42Got it.
24:43Julian,
24:44you've never liked flowers and plants.
24:46Alexander's footsteps suddenly drew closer.
24:49Don't tell me you're giving them to a girl.
24:52Julian gave a soft.
24:54As if he had just stumbled upon the juiciest gossip,
24:58Alexander flopped onto the bed in shock,
25:00crushing my foot.
25:02What the hell?
25:03It moves!
25:04Julian,
25:05did you get a pet?
25:07None of your damn business.
25:11Get lost and go train.
25:13Alexander had just started getting suspicious
25:15when Julian forcefully shoved him out the door.
25:18The man pulled back the blanket.
25:21My face was flushed red from holding my breath.
25:24My hair was a tangled mess,
25:25and I gasped heavily for air.
25:28How long are you planning to stay in my bed?
25:31I didn't mean to.
25:33Julian's expression shifted slightly.
25:35Acting cute won't work.
25:37Pack your bags and move out before tonight.
25:39After such a huge misunderstanding,
25:41even if Julian didn't kick me out,
25:43I wouldn't have the face to keep living
25:46under the same roof as him anyway.
25:48When my brother found out I was moving out,
25:50he just assumed I had figured things out.
25:53That I had finally stopped throwing a tantrum at our parents.
25:57Chloe,
25:58let's keep in touch.
26:00Jason reluctantly waved his phone,
26:03revealing my tulip profile picture.
26:05Alexander rolled up his sleeves.
26:07Oh, you're dead, Jason.
26:09You've got some nerve,
26:10hitting on my sister behind my back.
26:13She's just a kid.
26:14The two of them chased each other around,
26:16and the others simply stopped training altogether.
26:19When one person is in trouble,
26:21everyone else just adds to the chaos.
26:23I silently backed away from the battlefield.
26:26When people feel helpless,
26:28they automatically revert to kindergartners waiting to be picked up,
26:32subconsciously seeking comfort from the person they like,
26:35staring at the chat window with my online boyfriend.
26:38I gathered my courage and slowly typed,
26:40I've thought about it.
26:42Do you want to meet?
26:44I'm at H University.
26:45Just as I was about to hit send,
26:47a familiar voice suddenly drifted out from the nearby bathroom.
26:52The voice from the bathroom was recording a voice message.
26:56Boo-hoo, wifey, give me a hug.
26:58I got spooked today and need a kiss to feel better.
27:04That tone.
27:05That exact phrasering.
27:07Every single word was identical to the voice messages sitting in my pinned chat.
27:12Baby, I bought your favorite tulips.
27:16Can you give me a chance to give them to you in person?
27:21Julian.
27:21The person in that bathroom was Julian.
27:24Julian's inherently intimidating face overlapped with my online boyfriend's deep,
27:30raspy voice.
27:31The world tilted sideways.
27:33My blood ran cold.
27:35The boy who texted me goodnight, baby every single night.
27:39The boy who sent me jealous paragraphs just hours ago.
27:42He was the same person who told me to pack my bags and get out.
27:47My hand trembled, and the drafted message was sent.
27:50Without a second of hesitation, I immediately chose to unsend it.
27:56The sound of a phone dropping came from the bathroom.
28:00Julian's smile vanished before it could even fully form.
28:03I jogged all the way back to the bedroom, grabbed my suitcase, and headed straight for
28:08the base's main gate.
28:10My hands were shaking so badly I could barely zip it shut.
28:14My heartbeat and breathing were a complete mess.
28:17That day's nightmare had actually come true.
28:20Even though Julian and my boyfriend sounded similar,
28:23I always thought my secretly passionate, clingy online boyfriend and the aloof,
28:28ascetic Julian were different.
28:30Completely different species.
28:33The difference between them was bigger than that between a human and a dog.
28:37But the exact same voice message coming from my pinned contact forced me to face this
28:42cold, hard truth.
28:45Alexander let go of Jason's collar and stopped me.
28:51Chloe, why are you leaving in such a hurry?
28:53I'll have mom and dad drive over to pick you up.
28:55My phone kept pinging with notification sounds.
28:58Julian was sending a relentless stream of messages.
29:01Baby, I saw it.
29:03Why did you unsend the message?
29:05Did I do something wrong?
29:06Baby, where are you right now?
29:08Can we talk?
29:10Anything is fine.
29:11Just don't ignore me.
29:12Don't you love your most loyal puppy anymore?
29:14Even through the screen, I could feel his helplessness and panic.
29:19I was actually a bit curious about something.
29:22What would that pitiful, shattered expression look like on Julian's usually proud face?
29:27Forcing down this bizarre thought, I gently shook my head.
29:32Alexander, don't call mom and dad.
29:34I'm just going to take a cab straight back to campus.
29:37That works too.
29:39Alexander nodded.
29:40I'll ask Julian for some time off and go with you.
29:45It's okay.
29:45I can go by myself.
29:47Halfway through my sentence, Julian's low, cold voice suddenly rang out above my head.
29:53I'll take you.
29:54Everyone was a bit stunned.
29:57Alexander's eyes seemed to say, since when did Julian become so tender toward women?
30:03I hung my head, avoiding eye contact with the man.
30:07I don't want to trouble you to make a special trip.
30:10Julian domineeringly took my suitcase.
30:13The faint, elegant scent on him was exactly the same as the smell on the blanket.
30:20Don't overthink it.
30:22It's just on the way.
30:22I'm heading to H University too.
30:25His indifferent tone made me secretly hope for something, that he could remain this arrogant
30:30and untamed on the day he learned the truth.
30:32I was never good at rejecting people to begin with.
30:36Even as Julian put my suitcase into the car, I couldn't manage to articulate a proper refusal.
30:42I could only bite the bullet and sit in the back seat.
30:47Chloe, you're a freshman in the computer science department at H University.
30:52Yeah.
30:53Among the freshmen at your school, is there a girl with a tuplet profile picture whose game ID and WhatsApp
30:59name are both love's iced cola?
31:01I gripped the hem of my skirt tightly.
31:04I don't play games.
31:05I don't know her.
31:08Julian rarely softened his tone, sounding almost pleading.
31:12If you get any news about her, could you tell me immediately?
31:16She is my lover.
31:17The word lover smashed heavily against the bottom of my heart.
31:21I had planned to stay silent the whole way, but I couldn't help asking.
31:25Do you care a lot about this online relationship?
31:29Of course.
31:30She is the first person I've ever liked, and she will be the last.
31:34She had alting agreed to meet me, but now she ignoring me.
31:39Julian's voice gradually lowered, almost muttering to himself, the corners of his eyes turning slightly red.
31:45I tactfully hinted.
31:47People change.
31:48Julian's tone was firm.
31:51After she appeared in my life, everyone else paled in comparison.
31:55In this life, I will only love her.
31:58It's impossible for me to ever fall for anyone else.
32:01Oh, then I'm afraid you're destined to die alone.
32:06After arriving at the school, Julian offered to add my WhatsApp so we could exchange information anytime.
32:14Sorry, my social circle is very small.
32:16I probably won't cross paths with your girlfriend, so I can't help you.
32:20After saying that, I dragged my suitcase and walked toward the dorm building without looking back.
32:26I didn't notice Julian standing rooted to the spot, staring at my back with a swirl of complex emotions in
32:33his eyes.
32:34After I had completely calmed down in my dorm room, I unlocked my phone.
32:39Julian had been sending me new messages almost non-stop.
32:43Memories of sweet moments with my online boyfriend flashed in my mind.
32:48Alternating with the image of Julian fiercely telling me to stop acting spoiled.
32:52After a moment of hesitation, I blocked the pinned contact on WhatsApp.
32:59I've always been someone prone to running away.
33:02When I was two years old, my parents left me with my grandparents and took my brother to the city.
33:07I never complained.
33:09Everyone called me sensible and obedient.
33:12But the truth was simpler.
33:14I ran away from everything I couldn't face.
33:17In middle school, I hid web novels inside my textbooks while teachers praised my diligence.
33:23My classmates never suspected that the quiet top student was breaking every gaming record in school.
33:29When my university acceptance letter arrived, my parents finally learned the truth.
33:35Their docile daughter hadn't chosen the teaching degree they wanted.
33:38And now.
33:39Now I was doing it again, blocking him instead of facing him.
33:43I would never change myself for anyone, not even for the boyfriend I loved the most.
33:51That evening, when my dorm president returned, she gave me a warm hug.
33:56We were in the same class, and she was the very first friend I made when the semester started.
34:02Chloe?
34:03Why didn't you watch Julian's livestream today?
34:06You've never missed a single one before.
34:08She unlocked her tablet and placed it between us, on screen.
34:12Julian logged out of his main gaming account, and logged into an obscure alt account.
34:17Seeing that familiar username and profile picture, my heart skipped a beat.
34:23Why does Julian look so pitiful today?
34:25My dorm president also looked puzzled.
34:28What happened to his usual you're all just peasants arrogance?
34:31Julian adjusted his headset, his long eyelashes looking slightly damp.
34:35I know you're watching.
34:37Both my dorm president and I froze.
34:40From my online boyfriend's perspective, he shouldn't have known that I loved watching Julian's livestreams.
34:46Unless, unless he had always known exactly who was watching.
34:52Baby, I told you before that if I ever saw you, I'd recognize you immediately.
34:57I was too full of myself.
34:59It's true that people in love have a special connection, but that doesn't change the fact that I'm a massive
35:04idiot.
35:05The live chat exploded with comments.
35:08Is this still my arrogant, invincible Julian?
35:11And who the hell is baby?
35:13Whoever you are, get out of our Julian's body right now.
35:16Oh my god, is Julian begging his girlfriend for forgiveness?
35:20Heartbroken, I'm literally his girlfriend Stan.
35:24Julian looked up, his gaze meeting mine right through the screen.
35:28How could I be so stupid?
35:31You were right by my side this whole time and I only just realized it.
35:35Baby, my messages aren't going through.
35:40I really had no other choice but to talk to you through this live scream.
35:43Julian choked up slightly.
35:45Baby, even though I've already met you many times as Julian,
35:49but I want to see you one more time as your most loyal puppy, okay?
35:54The more I listened, the more something felt off.
35:57I unlocked my phone and found that my brother had sent me a WhatsApp message a few hours ago.
36:03Chloe, Julian asked me for your WhatsApp earlier.
36:06But the moment I opened it, he took one look at your profile picture and nickname,
36:11then immediately locked himself in the study.
36:14It was so weird.
36:16Oh right, he also seemed to interrogate me about why I said you didn't know how to play any games
36:20back then.
36:21I was telling the truth.
36:23I really don't know what's wrong with Julian.
36:25Everything suddenly clicked, so Julian already knew I was his online girlfriend.
36:30I had thought this would be exposed sooner or later.
36:33I just didn't expect it to be this fast.
36:36The number of viewers in the live stream kept growing.
36:40Hashtag esports god volunteers do be a puppy.
36:44This trending topic was climbing fast.
36:46I hesitated for a moment, then pulled Julian out of my blacklist.
36:50No matter which identity.
36:53Rule number two of our three-point agreement.
36:56Minimal communication, minimal meetings.
37:00You said that yourself.
37:02Julian was filled with remorse.
37:05Baby, that three-point agreement was the absolute worst decision I've ever made in my life.
37:10I must have been kicked in the head by a donkey to suggest something so ridiculous.
37:16I'm regretting it so much my guts are turning green.
37:19Can we just pretend everything I said before is void, please?
37:23Me.
37:24You don't like sweethearts, but my closet is full of little dresses.
37:29Meeting up will only add to the annoyance, so let's just forget it.
37:32He kept typing.
37:35Baby, please, give me one chance.
37:38Just one.
37:39I'll wait outside your dorm until you're ready to see me.
37:42I stared at those words for a long time, one chance.
37:46The man who told me to stop acting cute wanted one chance.
37:50The same man who claimed he had no interest in making friends with kids.
37:55I locked my phone screen and tossed it onto my bed.
37:58Not today, maybe not tomorrow either.
38:01He needed to learn what it felt like to be on the other side of that cold wall he'd built.
38:07Julian was so anxious he wished he could type 800 words a second, sending over a bunch of typos.
38:14After that, he opted to just send voice messages.
38:18Baby, how could I not like it?
38:20Back then in the game, you just said a few soft words and had me mesmerized like an idiot.
38:24I just kept, no, you were my tulip girlfriend.
38:27I just kept feeling like you were too similar to her.
38:30Your voice, your personality, even your outfits.
38:33I felt like those traits belonged exclusively to my girlfriend, which is why I acted like I didn't like them.
38:43Baby, is my explanation terrible?
38:46I'm sorry, I shouldn't have been fierce with you.
38:49Can you just pretend I went crazy after getting bitten by a dog?
38:52Or got poised by eating hallucinogenic wild mushrooms?
38:56Baby, I'm downstairs at your dorm.
38:59It's cold, but I'm not leaving until you look at me.
39:04Hearing this, I pulled back the curtains and took a look.
39:08The autumn nights in the north were cold.
39:11Julian was dressed thinly, standing under the streetlight, casting a long shadow.
39:16Just standing there, he looked like a scene straight out of a melodrama.
39:21I threw on a fluffy coat and went downstairs.
39:24A bright light flashed in the man's cold eyes, and he took the steps two at a time to greet
39:29me.
39:31Baby, why are you wearing so little?
39:34Are you cold?
39:35I shook my head.
39:36Julian rarely smiled like such a fool.
39:39He deliberately sneezed a few times.
39:41I'm not cold either, really.
39:43Though, if we could go somewhere indoors with just the two of us, it might be a bit warmer.
39:50But it's okay, baby.
39:52I really don't need to.
39:54You'd better just call me Chloe.
39:57Baby, why are you being so cold to me?
39:59The corners of Julian's lips gradually sank, looking incredibly wronged.
40:03Didn't you say not to act cute at the drop of a hat?
40:07You broke the rules.
40:09Julian looked as uncomfortable as if he had swallowed a fly.
40:13I was wrong, baby.
40:17Please don't hold it against a stupid pig like me, okay?
40:20The word idiot inexplicably hit my funny bone.
40:23I tried so hard to hold back my laughter that my whole body trembled,
40:27and I accidentally stepped on the edge of the stairs.
40:30Just as I was about to hit the ground, Julian caught me in his arms in time.
40:35The man's clothing was thin, and his blazing body heat was scorching.
40:39I could hear the sound of his heartbeat.
40:43Even though I repeatedly insisted I was fine.
40:46Julian was still worried and dragged me to the hospital for a checkup.
40:50In the end, not only did they find absolutely nothing wrong, but we also missed the dorm curfew.
40:56Left with no choice, I had to follow Julian back to his base.
41:01Along the way, the man kept apologizing and admitting his fault.
41:05If I hadn't seen the corners of his lips twitching upward, harder to suppress than the recoil of an AK,
41:10I might have actually believed it wasn't on purpose.
41:14Julian completely dropped his usual aloofness.
41:17He was talking an absurd amount.
41:19I finally realized that a clingy puppy online could be so suffocating in reality.
41:25Perhaps my annoyance was too obvious.
41:27Julian actually shut his mouth for the second half of the trip, looking incredibly wronged.
41:32After arriving at the room, I looked at the tulips filling the bedroom.
41:37I gently stroked the petals.
41:39They were as thin as cicada wings.
41:41My gloomy mood was lit up bit by bit.
41:44Julian suggested playing games together.
41:46You told me before in each my esports Eichel, and then I like the APY team.
41:51You are their rival.
41:52So, we'd better not together.
41:55I sat on the edge of the bed.
41:58Julian maintained a half-kneeling posture, looking up at me.
42:02He looked like he was about to shatter, his voice teary.
42:07Baby, let the past die with yesterday, and let the future be born with today.
42:13Huh?
42:13The me of yesterday is not the me of today.
42:17Just pretend the previous Julian has disappeared.
42:21Let me be your fan now, okay?
42:26Or I can change my team's name to APY.
42:30Chloe, I...
42:31I really don't know what to do anymore.
42:35Listening to Julian's sophistry, I felt both amused and heartbroken.
42:40Julian wiped away the moisture seeping from the corners of his eyes.
42:44Baby, I like you.
42:47Give me a chance to woo you again, please.
42:50No matter Saul, you push me away.
42:52Anyway, I bow we give up.
42:54While I was dazed, Julian boldly hugged my waist...
42:57Or you can yell at me to vent your anger.
43:00...rubbing his fluffy head against me.
43:01Julian!
43:02Here.
43:03I cleared my throat, trying to keep my face expressionless.
43:09Don't you think you're acting like a clingy simp right now?
43:12It was my first time being mean to someone, and I had no experience.
43:17As soon as the words left my mouth, I realized they might have been a bit too harsh.
43:21At that moment, Julian gave a crisp reply.
43:25Whoa.
43:25Then he crawled onto the bed on all fours, pinning me beneath him.
43:29His eyes were dead serious.
43:33I was left speechless by the man's shameless attitude.
43:37As long as you're willing to talk to me, baby, I can be a cat or a dog.
43:42I can do anything.
43:44Julian's tone turned ambiguous.
43:46I just noticed that the man had deliberately worn a slim-fitting, semi-transparent top.
43:51With a wide neckline that put his perfect figure on full display.
43:55His eyes were like hooks, staring at me without blinking.
43:59He was the spitting image of a male fox spirit.
44:02Seducing me is a foul.
44:04I thought to myself, but what came out of my mouth was...
44:07Take it off.
44:11Julian hesitated for a moment, then slowly took off his top.
44:16And...
44:16Now it was the old rogue's turn to be stunned.
44:20Since you can do anything, you might as well show off your advantages.
44:24I blew into Julian's ear with wicked intentions.
44:27Julian chuckled helplessly.
44:31Baby, does Alexander know his well-behavable sister has this side to her?
44:35Just as Julian placed his fingers on his belt.
44:38A bit sleepy.
44:39Going to bed.
44:40I stretched, lay down on Julian's bed, and closed my eyes.
44:45Julian stood there hunched over, frozen in place.
44:48After a long while, he stood up straight, closed the door for me, and went to take a cold shower.
44:55The next day, the boys gathered together to discuss who the goddess was that could turn Julian into a whining
45:01mess.
45:02There were simply too few women around Julian.
45:05It didn't take long for their investigation to surprisingly point right at me.
45:09Julian had been buying tulips.
45:11Julian had been smiling at his phone like an idiot.
45:15Julian had been in a weirdly good mood ever since that girl showed up at our base.
45:20Alexander and Jason blurted out in unison.
45:23Bullshit!
45:25My sister hasn't even held a guy's hand.
45:28Besides, they aren't even each other's type.
45:30Woken up by the noise, I gradually pushed the door open and walked out of Julian's bedroom.
45:35Alexander rubbed his eyes, nearly losing his footing.
45:39Hey, you, help me look.
45:40Is there a person standing there?
45:42Yeah, your sister.
45:44Alexander's hanging heart snapped and died completely.
45:49Chloe, why are you in Julian's bedroom?
45:51I hesitated for a moment, dodging the main issue.
45:56The bedding in the room I stayed in before was all cleared out.
46:00It's unlivable.
46:01Then you could have asked me to book a hotel for you.
46:03Before Alexander could finish, he was interrupted by Julian, who hurried over.
46:08What hotel?
46:10Weren't you guys just guessing who the girl I like is?
46:13No need to guess.
46:14I like Chloe.
46:15Just a few simple words, but Alexander's brain seemed to overload.
46:19You must be mistaken, Julian.
46:22Didn't you and your girlfriend meet in a game?
46:25But our Chloe only loves reading.
46:27She doesn't play games at all.
46:29After saying that, he feigned a relaxed look at the others.
46:32Julian is just a fan, joking around early in the morning.
46:35Julian didn't say a word.
46:37He just looked at me.
46:39The silence between us was louder than anything Alexander could have said.
46:44One of the boys patted Alexander on the shoulder.
46:47Oh, Alexander, face reality.
46:51At this point, I won't hide it anymore.
46:53Your sister's rank this season is even higher than yours.
46:57Alexander's lips trembled.
46:59Chloe, you...
47:01You played games behind the family's back and even got into an online relationship?
47:05How could this be?
47:07You've always been the most obedient, sensible since you were little.
47:11Julian stepped in front of me.
47:13Whether she obeying water, she is Chloe.
47:16She does what she likes, and she doesn't have to answer to anyone.
47:19Alexander slowly regained his composure.
47:22Julian, online dating is so illusionary.
47:25How can you be sure you'll still like her just as much offline?
47:28Actually, this was also a question I had always doubted.
47:31Julian didn't hesitate at all, enunciating every word.
47:35I like Chloe.
47:37I like everything about her.
47:39Not recognizing her before was my own blindness.
47:42Being fierce to her was my fault, and I will use practical action to pay for my mistokes
47:46until she accepts me.
47:47Alexander opened his mouth but couldn't say anything, looking at me past Julian.
47:52The unspoken understanding between siblings made me realize he was saying,
47:57Chloe, are you sure?
47:58He's the one.
47:59I nodded gently.
48:01I didn't tell Julian that.
48:02In fact, he was also the first person I ever liked, and barring any accidents he would be
48:08the last.
48:09It's just that I really couldn't get over his previous evil deeds against me.
48:14So, I'm punishing him by making him pursue me all over again.
48:19Over the next few days, Julian, in his pursuit of me, ended up winning over everyone around me.
48:25My dorm head received the new LV bag she had always wanted.
48:29Jason lived in fear for days, after realizing that Julian didn't treat him any differently
48:35for trying to pursue me before, and that everything was business as usual.
48:39Jason transformed into our head shipper.
48:42My brother also ate breakfast made personally by the captain for the first time.
48:47How is it?
48:48Does it suit your taste?
48:51Do you need more peanut butter?
48:52My brother looked terrified.
48:54Julian, please don't do this.
48:56Do you want your milk hot or room temperature?
48:59Alexander was about dropped to his knees.
49:03I'm begging you, boss.
49:04Let's just go back to how we used to interact.
49:08I'd be much more comfortable that way.
49:09Julian pondered.
49:11Promise not to interfere with my pursuit of Chloe anymore, and put in a good word for me
49:16with my future in-laws, and I'll go back to normal.
49:19Boss, my dearest sister, and my best bro, a good girl and an old rogue, could you handle
49:24it if you were in my shoes?
49:26Is there anything else you need me to do, brother?
49:28Alexander got goosebumps all over.
49:30Julian, I lose.
49:31I won't interfere anymore, okay?
49:33Julian dropped his smile.
49:35Look at the time.
49:36Why are you still eating?
49:37Get lost and do extra training.
49:40Alexander wore an expression of that's more like it, and happily trotted off hand in hand
49:44with Jason.
49:46When Julian came to the bedroom to call me for breakfast, I had just finished showering.
49:52I was still wrapped in a strapless bath towel.
49:55Baby.
49:56The man's Adam's apple bobbed.
49:58Noticing nothing unusual, I handed him my pink hello kitty necklace.
50:03Help me put this on.
50:05Okay.
50:05Julian wrapped his arms around me from behind.
50:09Baby, you're why the slim in your chapeau smells so good.
50:13Baby, turn around.
50:15I think I put it on backwards.
50:17I turned around helplessly, not expecting Julian to be so close.
50:21If I leaned forward even a tiny bit, I would brush against those soft, pale pink lips.
50:27Our breaths mingled.
50:29I subconsciously stepped back, my waist hitting the edge of the desk.
50:33Julian trapped me between his arms, leaned in, and touched the tip of his nose to mine.
50:39Chloe.
50:40His thumb traced the curve of my lower lip.
50:42I like you.
50:43One millimeter closer, and there would be no going back.
50:48I know.
50:50My face was blushing so hard it could explode, but I feigned composure.
50:55My chin was gently lifted by slender fingers.
50:58The man's tender kisses fell upon me.
51:01First on my forehead, then my cheeks, the corners of my lips.
51:05Finally, he captured my lips.
51:08Baby, open your mouth.
51:10As if bewitched, I obediently complied, passively accepting the man's deep invasion,
51:15feeling the physical changes in each other.
51:18Catching my breath, my legs went weak.
51:21Julian lifted me up and placed me on the desk.
51:24Chloe.
51:25The man's smile was teasing.
51:27Honey, want to inspect the goods?
51:29The same line from my nightmare.
51:31Except this time, I didn't want to run away.
51:34To go from putting on a necklace to this.
51:36I knew I had been played by this old rogue again, but I still couldn't help sinking into it,
51:42fully awake.
51:42The heat in the room climbed higher and higher.
51:45This shower was taken for nothing.
51:48Many times, I wonder.
51:50Julian is clingy, possessive, bossy, shameless, and occasionally fierce.
51:56But an awkward person just needs a lover who can't be chased away.
52:00Mr. Blackwood, let's walk the rest of our lives together.
52:04And this time, no more running away.
52:06From either of us.
