As soon as he sent the message, question marks bombarded his screen again. Looking at the rows of questions, Beanie felt like they were a broken recording playing on repeat. Otherwise, how could all of them be sending the same thing? Not just that, they sent them multiple times.

After a while, the screen went quiet, probably because Beanie didn't respond. Then, one of them slowly spoke up.

Wind God: [Beanie, quit joking around. If you're 5 years old, then I'm 10.]

Leon: [That's right! Then, I'm three. Beanie, should I call you my brother?]

Beanie: [There's no need. Just call me boss.]

Frid: [His solemn tone sounds exactly like a primary school kid. Guys, I'm really starting to believe our boss is only 5!]

Taro: [Wake up, please. Could a five-year-old be as smart as our boss? Have you gone nuts?]

Frid: [Why don't you guys believe me? Even if you don't believe me, you should believe in our boss. He admitted that he's five years old!]

Wind God: [He's clearly joking with us. Do you believe him?]

Leon: [My turn to tell a joke. I'm actually a woman.]

Taro: [F*ck off!]

Beanie couldn't care less that nobody believed him. It didn't matter to him.

Beanie: [I'm going offline now. My mommy said that I can't sleep too late. As for my contact information, I'll pass it to you guys the next time I come online.]

After that, Beanie went offline. He disregarded their reactions and left them confused.

At this moment, on the plane flying abroad, the business cabin was very quiet. The plane was flying steadily and the flight attendant began to distribute the in-flight meals. Minerva touched her stomach and looked at Maddox, who was sleeping on her shoulder.

He was sound asleep with all his weight on her. If it wasn't for the chair supporting her back, Minerva would have been unable to hold it any longer.

Since he was so tall, Minerva naturally couldn't withstand his body weight.

If it wasn't for the fact that he hadn't slept for the past two days, Minerva would have pushed him away.

But now, she just let him lean on her. When the flight attendant passed her her meal, she noticed Maddox sleeping on her. She smiled and signalled if she should give her his meal as well.

She recalled that he had not eaten much when they were at the restaurant. She nodded and asked the flight attendant for two portions.

After Minerva took the food, she lowered her head and glanced at Maddox, who was still sleeping soundly. She thought for a moment before reaching out to push him away.

Maddox didn't move initially. Minerva coughed softly and pushed him again, calling out his name softly.

"Maddox..."

She called out a few times, and only then did the man who was sleeping on her shoulder come to his senses and raise his head to look at her.

Perhaps it was because Maddox had just woken up, but his eyes were blank. His usually cold gaze was nowhere to be seen.

He looked exactly like what Beanie looked when he just woke up.

Minerva was a little worried. Just as she was about to say something, he suddenly leaned forward and kissed her.

His lips were as soft as cotton and he came onto her with no warning. As quickly as he advanced, he soon retreated. However, he felt like it wasn't enough, so he kissed her again. This time, he continued kissing her. Instead, he stayed on her lips for a long time. As if he was dissatisfied, he reached out and held her face, trying to pry open her lips and teeth.

Minerva came back to her senses and pushed him away. She warned him in a low voice, "Are you crazy? We're on a plane."

After pushing him away, she discovered several people secretly looking at them. Her cheeks instantly tainted red. She quickly lowered her head and did not dare to meet the gazes of those people. It was too embarrassing.

The same situation happened earlier at the airport.

"Can't this b*stard be a little more self-conscious when he's out in public?"

Maddox looked around and realized where he was. He turned around and saw her pink earlobes. His thin lips couldn't help but tilt up slightly.

"Why did you wake me up?"

He could not help but yawn as he asked. He didn't seem to have gotten enough sleep.

How could he have gotten enough sleep? It hadn't been that long since they boarded the plane. Minerva saw that his eyes were bloodshot so she could only whisper, "You haven't eaten, right? Why don't you eat a bit before you sleep?"

Maddox suddenly noticed the two portions of food before him.

Usually, he would not touch food served on the plane. However, Minerva asked him to eat, so he felt like perhaps it wasn't that bad to give it a try. "Alright."

He agreed and then lowered his head to eat with her.

Since they sat so close to each other on the same row, Maddox observed the kinds of food she liked to eat, took the same food from his own plate and gave it to her.

One after another, Minerva frowned and rebuked him.

"Why are you giving everything to me? Don't you like it?"

"You like it, don't you?" Maddox retorted. He licked his lips and said, "I see you keep eating it."

"Who said that I like eating this?"

"You don't like it?" Maddox narrowed his eyes.

"Then why did you eat it first?"

"I like to save the best for last."

Maddox was speechless.

What kind of a bad habit was this? Leaving the best food to the end?

"Don't you know? It tastes the best being last," Minerva thought of something. The corner of her mouth twitched, "Did you think I was eating the ones I liked first? That's why you..." Maddox nodded. He was a little uncomfortable.

"How was I supposed to know you have such a habit?"

Minerva was a little bored so she could only push the food away. It was too hard for her to eat, so she did not want to eat anymore.

"If you don't want to eat it, give it back to me. Why are you pushing it aside?" Maddox frowned and said.

"You want it?" Minerva's eyes widened in disbelief. "I thought you would replace it disgusting..."

"I've tasted your saliva already. What is there to be disgusted about?" He took the food back from her plate.

She kept quiet.

She wanted to dig a hole and bury her head in it when she realized that everyone was staring again.

She ate her meal awkwardly. Those people were curious so they kept looking over. Perhaps they could sense her embarrassment. Maddox suddenly raised his head and threw a look at the onlookers around. The few of them quickly turned away when they saw his fierce gaze. They pretended as if nothing happened.

Minerva closed her eyes and swallowed her last mouthful of food. She felt as if a rock was weighing down on her chest.
