"You know..." Xu Ping can't resist a small smile, leaning casually against the living room wall. "If they were going to catch you, they'd have done it already."
"Uuuuugh...Living like this is torture," Lin An groans, slumping face first into the sofa. "I swear...I'm never doing anything that stupid ever again."
Xu Ping raises an eyebrow from across the room.
"You're telling me you haven't done anything that stupid again?"
"Of course I haven't!" Lin An snaps upright, clutching a hand to her chest. "Do I? You really don't trust me, do you? That's so mean." She pouts, crossing her arms.
Xu Ping pushes off the wall and steps closer, leaning over the back of the sofa.
"What is it this time?" Lin An asks, still pouting.
Xu Ping's expression flickers, a tiny, mischievous grin breaking through her act.
"Nothing much...just wanted to give you this," she says, pulling a small, cold cup from behind her back.
"But since you're being all grumpy..." She starts to take it back.
"Waaaaait!" Lin An's hands shoot out to intercept it.
"Xu Piiiiing!" Lin An beams, taking it swiftly as she sinks back into the sofa. "I knew you loved me. Ice cream is the best!"
"Just don't blame me when your stomach starts hurting," Xu Ping says with a warm smile.
