Chapter 539: – Showing love on stream
Over the next few days, Lin Jin saw on the news that the orphanage had closed down and the children were indeed sent to various other orphanages.
Because Yufei didn’t have a phone, Lin Jin had no idea which orphanage she went to. The same afternoon she saw the news, Lin Jin took some time off school and rushed to the orphanage, only to find it was already empty except for a few workers hauling out the orphanage’s equipment.
Lin Jin returned disappointed and had no interest in anything that entire day. She, who was a little worried about Yufei, spent the rest of the afternoon hurrying to several other orphanages in the Jimei area, but didn’t find any signs of Yufei.
She returned home with a sigh and somewhat helplessly lay on her bed.
Since that was the case, then there was no point forcing it, right? Yufei should live quite well at another orphanage.
Lin Jin got up and sat at the edge of the bed, sighing as she went on her phone.
She wasn’t in a very good mood and didn’t feel like gaming or anything at all. Her mind was filled with Yufei’s happy face.
Standing up, she walked over to her laptop, lowered her head in silence, then sat down and clicked on a video of Teacher Lin and Yufei dancing together at school.
It had to be stated that even though Yufei usually looked quite indifferent, ever since she got familiar with Lin Jin, she would always greet her with a big smile every day. Although Lin Jin knew that Yufei acted cold because she felt embarrassed and insecure about the big birthmark on her body, she never showed it.
Whenever Lin Jin was with Yufei, Lin Jin never brought up the birthmark and just kept praising her for being pretty and beautiful, hoping it would boost her confidence. Maybe thanks to Lin Jin’s compliments, Yufei really did become more and more cheerful and confident. But then the director suddenly passed away.
It was hard to believe. A few days ago was the first time Lin Jin had seen Yufei cry. Lin Jin’s heart almost broke when Yufei cried, but she didn’t know how to comfort her.
She let out a sigh, not sure whether Yufei would ever be able to get over the loss of the director. After all, Lin Jin knew that Yufei had genuinely regarded the director as her grandfather and only family.
Lin Jin sat silently in front of her laptop for a moment, then stood up and headed over to XIa Tian’s place.
It was time to stream.
She checked the time on her phone. Because she had been running around to various orphanages in the Jimei area after class ended at four, it was already past six o’clock when she got back. And the live stream was scheduled to start at seven.
When she got to Xia Tian’s place, Lin Jin unlocked the door with her key, only to find that Xia Tian was actually home today.
“Where’d you go?” Xia Tian, sitting on the sofa, looked up at Lin Jin as she came in and helplessly pursed his lips “I had the afternoon off. Even tried looking for you but couldn’t find you, and you wouldn’t pick up my calls.”
“No time.” Lin Jin smiled. She had seen Xia Tian’s call when she was on her phone after returning home, but she didn’t call back because she was in a bad mood.
“The orphanage I always visit shut down and all the kids got sent somewhere else.” Lin Jin’s expression was a bit dark as she sat next to Xia Tian and told him about the past few days.
After Xia Tian quietly listened, he then reached out and patted Lin Jin’s head: “It’s okay, maybe Yufei got sent over to the Siming area. That area is the city center, so the conditions are definitely better than before. You don’t need to worry too much.”
“Mhm.”
“Besides, wasn’t that Yufei girl’s character pretty strong? And she used to be the leader of the children at the orphanage, so she shouldn’t get bullied at a new place.”
Lin Jin sighed and nodded. She kicked off her slippers and crossed her legs on the sofa.
“Then I’m going to stream?” Xia Tian glanced at the clock hanging on the wall and stood up. “Do you want to stream together?”
“Can you stream for me for a few hours? I’m a bit tired.”
Lin Jin had basically not had any rest today. She got up at eight in the morning and went to class until twelve, then had two more hours of class in the afternoon before rushing around Jimei. Even though she took the bus, she was still tired to death.
Xia Tian went to his room to stream. Lin Jin yawned and rested her head on the sofa, falling half asleep in a daze.
Lin Jin never had as much energy as Xia Tian. That guy could work all day and then continue reading books about opening a store or helping Lin Jin stream at night. Lin Jin, on the other hand, usually only had four hours of class every day, yet she was still out of energy whenever she streamed at night.
Luckily, Lin Jin had found a game to quickly kill time with. The RimWorld game was seriously dangerous. A few hours was often not enough for her to play. She figured that if she had the energy, she might even be able to play it all day.
After resting on the sofa for an hour, Lin Jin finally walked into Xia Tian’s room and sat beside him to watch him play.
“Speaking of which, Lin Jin, how about we buy another computer for you to stream on?” Xia Tian suddenly turned to her and asked “Something like you or me opening up another streaming channel?”
“Let’s not, even just one stream is almost tiring me to death.” Lin Jin rolled her eyes at him.
This was probably Xia Tian’s second game. It had been only ten minutes so far and was still in the laning phase, but things were looking quite tough.
Lin Jin just sat by the side with her chin resting on one hand, quietly watching Xian play while occasionally yawning to show how sleepy she was.
Even though she had just rested for a bit, she felt sleepier as she rested. Lin Jin worried that Xia Tian would have to stream by himself if she fell asleep, so she forced herself to stay awake.
But even while watching the Xia Tian stream, Lin Jin still kept dozing off. With her chin still in her hand, after about ten minutes, she still uncontrollably rested her head on Xia Tian’s arm.
Xia Tian froze. He lowered his head and glanced at Lin Jin, whose head was resting on his arm. He helplessly tried to keep his arm still and only moved his fingers to press the skill keys on the keyboard.
He gave a wry smile. Since his arm was still acting as a pillow for Lin Jin’s head, he didn’t dare make any big movements, afraid of waking her up. It was okay for the first few minutes, but after another ten minutes, he felt his arm starting to ache and feel weak.
Xia Tian felt really helpless. Because of the soreness in his arm, his fingers were also not responding as well. As a result, after being killed in a team fight before he could even cast a single skill, his teammates started yelling at him in voice chat.
They lost that game because of Lin Jin, but Xia Tian didn’t really care about the outcome of the game. He and Lin Jin were the same type of players where the outcome of the game didn’t really matter.
He gently shook Lin Jin’s head. She woke up almost instantly and looked up at Xia Tian in a daze.
“Go sleep in the bed.”
“Mmm…” Lin Jin shook her head in protest. She had already stood up, but then suddenly sat down again, raising her head and ordering Xia Tian “Carry me over! I can’t get up!”
“Listen to your nonsense.”
Xia Tian’s eyes were smiling as he picked Lin Jin up in his arms and gently placed her down in the middle of the bed.
Lin Jin had long brought her weight down. The around 50 kg Lin Jin was still somewhat heavy for Xia Tian, but it was still manageable.
Besides, it would be really embarrassing if he couldn’t even carry his own wife.
Meanwhile, the chat was already going crazy:
“You won’t have a good death showing off your love on stream!”
“Eat my rocket you pair of dogs!”
