Xyla Quest and Stanley Batton’s heads were completely covered in white by the time they arrived home.
They both flicked off all the snow before entering their house.
Inside, the heater was on full blast, making it feel like a completely different world from the outside.
Xyla instantly felt active after entering the warm house.
Removing Stanley’s coat, she glanced at him. “Are you sure you’re not cold?”
Xyla was already freezing even though they’d only walked in the snow for less than ten minutes.
“Not at all.”
“You sure are resistant to the cold,” Xyla retorted and then rubbed her hands together while she quickly ran over to the couch. She picked up a white blanket to cover her legs until she soon felt warm again.
Stanley unhurriedly put away their shoes before sitting down next to her, his arms extending to sit her forcefully on his lap.
Xyla leaned against him naturally before she picked up her phone and opened Weibo to examine the current list of hot topics.
The topics from earlier that day were still trending, much to her surprise.
Their popularity hadn’t died down at all, which was drastically different compared to the usual hot topics that came and went at a moment's notice.
Xyla casually clicked on one of the hot topics, noticing that everyone was still praising her.
Feeling numb at the sight of these compliments, she looked for other topics on the list.
Meanwhile, Stanley leaned against the couch while gently rumpling her hair and reading whatever she was reading.
It looked almost like he was petting a cat.
Xyla, on the other hand, was as obedient as a white Persian cat.
Since there was no interesting gossip, Xyla closed Weibo and checked Team XS’s group chat on WeChat.
Right then, several players in Team XS were tagging her and asking her to play with them.
