After Flirting with the God-Tier Beautiful Tycoon - Chapter 39.1
Chen Yi slowly closed her eyes, opening herself up and responding to Shen Xiaojiang with her body’s natural instincts.
Call her naughty all you want, but a single kiss had brought her down.
In the end, it was hard to tell who had captured whom.
While Shen Xiaojiang headed to her last class before the Dragon Boat Festival break, Chen Yi went to her bar to handle the work arrangements for the holiday.
During the holidays, the bar was even busier than usual. There were arrangements for different VIP clients, holiday alcohol pricing, fire safety inspections from the municipal bureau… the handover meetings lasted well into the afternoon.
“Due to Nancheng’s unique geographical location, there will be a massive influx of tourists during the holidays. We need to be fully prepared for the pool area reaching maximum capacity…” The assistant was operating a PPT at the front. “Based on previous data.”
“Wait, Haishi is at a lower latitude, so the sun will be stronger. Which sun hat should I bring? And the UV protective clothing, sunscreen…” Chen Yi was biting the end of her black pen, her slight frown making her look unexpectedly adorable.
Everyone in the room turned their heads simultaneously, looking toward the center of the conference table in confusion.
“Eh?” The assistant’s smile froze. He asked tentatively, “Seventh Mistress, what did you just say?”
“Hmm?” Chen Yi snapped out of it, blinking.
He Zhong, who was sitting nearby and knew about Chen Yi’s itinerary for the festival, tried to cover for her by coughing loudly and pointedly.
Chen Yi finally regained her focus. “Oh, nothing. Your ideas are good, and the PPT is well-made concise language, appropriate images. It’s fine, proceed.”
The assistant, who hadn’t even started explaining his text-heavy, image-less PPT, blinked in confusion and fell into deep thought. Is there even a point in continuing?
It was the first time she had ever daydreamed during a meeting. Chen Yi twitched the corner of her mouth, looking like she was smiling, yet not. He Zhong covered his face with one hand, his heart feeling utterly cold.
On the other side of town, Shen Xiaojiang headed straight for her dormitory after class. Sun Jiabao followed her, looking pensive.
Shen Xiaojiang seemed the same as usual, yet completely different. It was hard to put a finger on exactly what had changed. In short, while Sun Jiabao chattered away, Shen Xiaojiang remained silent, as if silence were golden.
“Ginger, come buy ice cream with me.” “Ginger, I want milk tea tonight.” “Ginger!”
Usually, a “lion’s roar” worked, but today, it failed. Sun Jiabao narrowed her eyes and intentionally lowered her voice: “For the Dragon Boat Festival, I’m going home with you to play.”
Almost instantly, Shen Xiaojiang turned her head and barked: “No way!”
“Hah!” Sun Jiabao nearly jumped three feet high. “Good one, Ginger! You clearly heard me, but you were ignoring me on purpose!”
Shen Xiaojiang pursed her lips.
“Quick, tell me, what were you just thinking about? And also, why won’t you let me go home with you?” Sun Jiabao hooked her arm around Shen Xiaojiang’s neck.
Shen Xiaojiang didn’t feel like explaining and shrugged her arm off. “No reason why.”
Sun Jiabao crossed her arms, her chest heaving with anger. “What do you mean ‘no reason why’? Why is there ‘no reason why’?”
“My dear girl, I really don’t want to hear these tongue twisters!” Shen Xiaojiang gave her a middle finger and sprinted toward the dorm.
If Sun Jiabao weren’t so scatterbrained, Shen Xiaojiang who was a terrible liar would have been caught. Luckily, she only planned to go back for two days and one night, so she didn’t have much to pack. She finished packing at lightning speed before Sun Jiabao could catch up.
“Bye-bye!” She brushed past Sun Jiabao.
Sun Jiabao: “Stop!” Shen Xiaojiang: “No.” Sun Jiabao: “Where exactly are you going?” Shen Xiaojiang: “Secret.”
“Ginger, you jerk! I hope you gain ten pounds in three days!” Sun Jiabao stomped her feet in rage.
After parting ways with Sun Jiabao, Shen Xiaojiang hurried to the school gate. A white Bentley had been waiting for a while. Shen Xiaojiang straightened her clothes and walked over. She pulled the door handle.
It was locked.
Suddenly, Chen Yi popped up from behind her and grabbed her hand.
“Who is it?” Shen Xiaojiang jumped, startled. You shouldn’t scare people like that!
Chen Yi’s eyes crinkled as she smiled radiantly. “What, you really didn’t expect it to be me?”
Chen Yi was clearly different. Specifically how, Shen Xiaojiang couldn’t say. Just… better at flirting? No, was she excited?
Shen Xiaojiang scratched her ear. “I… I really didn’t expect it.”
Chen Yi let go and smoothed her hair, revealing her beautiful, taut neckline. Shen Xiaojiang remembered vividly how she had leaned over and bitten that spot for a long time last night.
Chen Yi had grabbed her hair, pulling her face away and frowning as she begged her to stop. She had called her “Auntie” over and over, while the other woman trembled violently. Finally, she had cried out that she couldn’t take it anymore… and then, she really couldn’t.
Oh my god, why is my head full of this?! Is this a moral decline or a distortion of human nature?
Stop thinking about it. Thinking more would just be perverted.
Just then, Chen Yi pinched Shen Xiaojiang’s cheek. “What are you dazing off for?”
Shen Xiaojiang touched the spot. “It hurts.”
Getting into the car, Chen Yi propped one hand on the center armrest, her eyes curved in a faint smile. Shen Xiaojiang didn’t notice her at first, and when she turned her head, they nearly collided.
“Auntie, what’s wrong?” “Nothing.”
Chen Yi finished speaking and moved to sit back properly. Shen Xiaojiang caught her wrist and whispered, “What do you mean ‘nothing’?”
She had just told Sun Jiabao she didn’t want to hear tongue twisters, yet here she was, saying them herself.
Chen Yi lowered her gaze, her other hand tracing the steering wheel. In the quiet car, the sound of her fingertip rubbing against the leather cover was incredibly clear. Each stroke seemed to scratch at Shen Xiaojiang’s heart.
Chen Yi didn’t answer, nor did she pull away. She stared at a point in space. Shen Xiaojiang unbuckled her seatbelt, leaned toward Chen Yi, and grabbed her other hand as well. With both hands restrained, Chen Yi was forced to face Shen Xiaojiang.
However, Chen Yi’s eyelids remained lowered, her thoughts unknown.
“Auntie…” Shen Xiaojiang’s voice dropped lower.
Chen Yi turned her gaze slightly and slowly looked up at her.
Shen Xiaojiang: “What are you thinking about?”
Chen Yi certainly wouldn’t tell Shen Xiaojiang that she was thinking about last night. For the first time in her nearly thirty years of life, she had experienced a pleasure that numbed her entire body. Before passing out, for a fleeting moment, she thought she was going to die.
Her gaze flickered, scanning Shen Xiaojiang’s face before quickly landing on the girl’s clean, slender fingers.
“I was thinking… your fingers are really beautiful.” After saying this, Chen Yi’s ears turned red.
Shen Xiaojiang replayed the words in her mind. Her fingers subconsciously curled inward.
Chen Yi took a glance, pulled out her phone, and opened a social media app. Shen Xiaojiang looked at the screen as Chen Yi tilted it toward her.
“It’s my first time in Haishi, so I searched for some travel guides,” Chen Yi said.
Shen Xiaojiang nodded. These were all places she was familiar with. “Auntie, the art museum is quite famous, we can check it out.” “Is this the Ocean Park? It’s great for photos.” “Since when did Sanhai Coffee become a trending spot for influencers?”
Shen Xiaojiang looked at Chen Yi. “Do you have any preferences?” “I’ll listen to you,” Chen Yi said.
How cute. Shen Xiaojiang felt a burst of joy in her heart.
Soon, the page scrolled to the bottom. The search history there gave Shen Xiaojiang a physical jolt. Although Chen Yi quickly pulled the phone away, Shen Xiaojiang’s photographic memory caught everything:

Chen Yi: How do I prove it isn’t early menopause?
Shen Xiaojiang: Let’s… let’s do it again.
