Chapter 403
Keegan could not help but be curious when he saw Stella so engrossed in a book. ‘Is she really that fascinated by a book about world history? What chapter is she in?' He leaned in closer, and then his lips twitched.
He noticed that there was a phone tucked in the book that Stella had spread out. On the screen of the phone was a livestream video of a male internet celebrity.
That man's tank top was drenched with sweat, indicating that he had just finished a strenuous workout. The light shone off his glistening body and face. Although Keegan could not make out what the man was saying, a stream of "yes" comments flooded the live chat. Stella, on the other hand, repeatedly hit the "like" button on the screen. Suddenly, that man began to remove his tank top.
Keegan was at a loss for words. ‘I thought she was reading to cultivate herself, but she's watching this?’ With a scowl, he took the book away from her. The phone, which had been leaning against the book, fell onto Stella's lap.
Stella finally came back to her senses and took off her earphones. "Are you done with your work?"
Keegan did not say a word. Instead, he picked up her phone, unfollowed the internet celebrity for her, and then blocked that account with one tap.
Stella was speechless. "Keegan, you're way too controlling! You seriously want to dictate who I follow?"
Keegan glanced at her and said, "You shouldn't watch these kinds of shallow videos too much. They're not doing any favors for your intellect."
"Are videos of people dancing considered shallow now? Tell me, what accounts do you follow that aren't shallow?" she retorted, snatching Keegan's phone from his hand and shaking it teasingly. With Keegan's finger, she unlocked it and launched the short video app.
Surprisingly, Keegan did not stop her. He simply watched her actions and said in a calm voice, "The accounts I follow are at least better than the ones you're following."
"I don't believe you," Stella said, clicking on his following list. To her surprise, he only followed one account, which was hers. Stella was stunned. Keegan spoke in a flat tone, "At least the ones I follow have substance, unlike the ones you follow, which are just empty shells."
