Ji Junxue and Jing Che were bickering all the way home, continually calling Jing Che a smelly old man.
While parking the car, Jing Che said, "Wait till you get out, I'll give you a beating. Try calling me an old man again."
Ji Junxue quickly unfastened his seatbelt and darted out of the car, running towards the small villa ahead of Jing Che.
Once inside, Ji Junxue shut the door, afraid that Jing Che might actually hit him.
Jing Che arrived at the door and twisted the handle.
It was locked from the inside.
Jing Che knocked on the door.
"Junxue, open the door."
"I will only open if you're not angry and won't hit me."
"You have the guts to provoke but not to prepare for a beating?"
Jing Che chuckled softly, finding Ji Junxue's flustered expression utterly adorable. He couldn't bring himself to hit him.
"Then I won't open it!"
Inside, Ji Junxue's voice fell silent, followed by the sound of him sprinting upstairs.
Jing Che helplessly took out his keys to unlock the door.
