Reborn to Make Games: My Girlfriend is a Game Streamer

Chapter 144 "Brother Lou," who belongs only to him.

On countless nights spent working overtime and facing the computer screen, the background noise coming through my headphones was hers.

That voice accompanied him through his most difficult days.

That was a kind of companionship she was unaware of.

The mere sound of it flowing through his headphones was enough to calm him down.

In the time and space he recalled, the two only met once at Chen Xu and Ji Siyu's wedding, and then had no chance to meet again.

This matter remained buried deep in his heart.

And in this second life, she is now lying beside him.

He's not quite the same "Brother Lou" I knew from a screen in my past life.

That "Brother Lou" shone brightly, a brilliance shared by countless people.

And now—

She was his neighbor and partner who would barge into his room at night to cook him a late-night snack, and who worked alongside him. She was also the "elder brother's" co-parent.

They are trustworthy friends, people you can entrust with keys to and eat with.

She was the "older sister" who called him "little brother".

It was "Tingting" who accompanied him to celebrate his success, told him he should learn to enjoy life and live a little more selfishly.

He still remembers all of these things.

It was her appearance that brought more color to his life, which he had been given a second chance at.

Instead of sticking to the initial 1.0 version of the "HP System Optimization Solution," focusing only on healthy, long-lived old tortoises and living like pre-programmed robots.

She was far more important to him than she realized.

He remembered her last words: "I really like it, so I want to take it slow."

Chen Bainian's Adam's apple bobbed.

He wanted to tell her that he liked her too, that he really liked her.

So, when did this liking begin?

Chen Bainian pondered for a moment.

Perhaps it was because of her words at the Zhuantang market, "That's like trying to find a lost sword by marking the boat," and that hand-holding that day?

No, that's not right, it should have been earlier.

That might have been the first time we met in this life, the moment she appeared on her skateboard?

Chen Bainian wasn't quite sure either.

He was certain that his feelings for her had been there for a very, very long time.

He turned his head and looked at her.

Jiang Yiting had her back to him, only half of her ear was visible, and her hair was spread out on the pillow.

Is she asleep?

He wasn't sure.

However, there's no rush to do it this night.

She said to take it slow, so let's take it slow.

But tomorrow at sunrise might be a good time.

He thought he should tell her.

With this idea confirmed, Chen Bainian felt at ease.

He smiled slightly, moved closer to her, and put his arm around Jiang Yiting's waist.

She didn't move, but she didn't dodge either.

However, at that moment, the rhythm of her breathing seemed to become disordered again.

Chen Bainian smiled and said softly, "Goodnight, Tingting."

Then, he closed his eyes.

The starlight shone down quietly, as if draping a blanket over the two of them.

Outside the window, the sea breeze whipped up waves that continued to crash against the shore.

The older man in the passenger seat rolled over and let out a satisfied snoring sound.

This night was very long.

But it was also very short-lived.

4:30 a.m.

The eastern horizon turned a pale white, waking the morning.

"Buzz buzz buzz".

A soft alarm clock vibrated in the car.

Jiang Yiting opened her eyes groggily.

She realized that she had turned around without even noticing.

Her face was now directly facing Chen Bainian.

Moreover, it's very close.

She felt so close that she could move his thick, long eyelashes with just a breath.

Her heart skipped a beat.

But he still had his eyes closed, and he groggily reached out and fumbled around for a few moments before turning off the alarm on his phone next to his pillow.

As his hand fell, it unconsciously returned to her waist.

Looking at his slightly trembling eyelashes and feeling the warmth from the large hand around her waist, Jiang Yiting's breathing became rapid again.

Chen Bainian seemed to feel the warm breath coming from his face, and his movements paused.

Then, she slowly opened her eyes.

Eyes facing each other.

Looking at her, Chen Bainian's eyes gradually cleared from a daze.

The morning air seemed to freeze.

Only faint voices could be heard from outside the car.

The tourists who got up early to wait for the sunrise have been arriving one after another.

After a few seconds, Jiang Yiting lowered her eyes and asked softly, "What time is it?"

"4:30." Chen Bainian remembered the alarm clock he had just turned off and responded softly, his voice hoarse with the characteristic huskiness of early morning.

"Oh," Jiang Yiting responded, and then said nothing more.

At this moment, the older brother jumped from the front seat onto the center armrest and meowed at the two of them, which completely woke them up. The voices outside the car became clearer and more distinct.

"Then get up quickly." Jiang Yiting quickly sat up, opened the trunk, climbed out, and casually tied her hair into a loose bun just like last night.

She walked to the passenger side, opened the door, and poured cat food and water for her older brother.

The older brother meowed and then buried himself in his food, seemingly completely unaware of how much of a wattage he had just been acting as a third wheel.

Watching her older brother eat with gusto, Jiang Yiting rummaged through her bag for toiletries and glanced back at the trunk.

Chen Bainian was also looking at her.

"I'm going to wash up now," she said, and then left without looking back.

Chen Bainian sat there, his gaze following her until her figure disappeared from sight.

After a while, when he had calmed down a bit, he let out a long breath.

Remembering the decision he made before going to bed last night, he rubbed his face to clear his head, and then climbed out of the trunk.

He went to the driver's side, opened his bag, took out his toiletries, locked the car, leaving only a crack in the window for his older brother to ventilate, and then walked towards the restroom.

The washbasins provided for campers in the park are long and narrow, with several faucets lined up in a row, and a large mirror is also provided.

He placed his toiletries next to Jiang Yiting's light purple set of clothes, then turned into the bathroom next door.

A while later, when he came out of the toilet, Jiang Yiting was already standing by the sink.

She was combing her loose hair with both hands.

He slowed his pace, looking around as he approached.

She tied her hair up quickly and efficiently; in just a few strokes, the familiar "Lou Ge" with his high ponytail reappeared in front of the mirror.

Chen Bainian also happened to walk to the sink.

Jiang Yiting glanced at him through the reflection in the mirror.

She paused for a moment, then turned her head and looked him over carefully again before bursting out laughing.

Hearing the laughter, Chen Bainian turned to look at her, puzzled. "What's wrong?"

Jiang Yiting pointed to the top of his head: "Little brother, you've grown 'bull horns'."

Chen Bainian subconsciously turned his head to look in the mirror.

His hair is naturally quite stiff, and last night when he slept on his side, a tuft of hair above his temple was pressed up, making it look like he had grown a cow horn on one side.

He raised his hand, his fingers spread out, and gently combed through the unruly tuft of hair.

However, that "horn" was very stubborn; as soon as the hand was released, it curled up again.

Jiang Yiting laughed even louder.
