After Secretly Marrying the Top Celebrity, I Fell in Love - Chapter 28
Inside the master bedroom of the mansion, the heavy grey-blue contrasting curtains were drawn, tightly sealed and letting in not a sliver of sunlight.
Fu Yu was wearing an ankle-length white shirt. Two buttons were undone, and her snow-white neck and collarbone were covered with ambiguous hickeys, hinting at the intensity of the night before.
The woman’s voluminous curls were draped carelessly down her back, with a few streaks of raspberry red adding a touch of allure. The shirt’s hem just covered her hips, exposing a pair of straight, long legs. She was walking barefoot on the soft tatami mat.
Both sleeves of the shirt were rolled up to her elbows, revealing a pair of slender, fair arms.
Fu Yu held a thin, ladies’ cigarette in one hand and her phone pressed to her ear in the other, making a call while facing the French window.
The woman slightly lifted her smooth jawline, lazily inhaled a puff of the cigarette, and exhaled an oval-shaped grey smoke ring.
The smoke ring gradually ascended into the air.
Suddenly, Fu Yu’s expression froze, and she belatedly reacted.
“Wait… How do you have Xiao Bai’s number? Why are you two together?!”
The previous night had been too exhausting, so Fu Yu’s mind was still fuzzy. Once she cleared up, she immediately noticed the “problem.”
A few seconds of silence followed on the other end of the line, succeeded by Ye Manqing’s usual gentle and calm voice.
“We got married.”
These few words, combined, were like dropping a bomb into a calm lake, instantly stirring up a terrifying wave that heavily crashed onto Fu Yu standing on the shore.
“Cough! Cough!” Fu Yu inhaled a puff of smoke into her windpipe, causing her to cough violently several times.
Physiological tears welled up in her eyes, moistening her thick eyelashes.
“Married?!” Fu Yu pressed her left hand, which held the cigarette, against her chest, finally recovering.
“Are you saying you married Bai Yiyan? You’re not joking with me, are you?”
“Yan Yan and I went back to Beijing a few days ago, specifically to register our marriage,” Ye Manqing stated the fact unhurriedly on the other end of the line.
“!!” At this moment, Fu Yu could not describe her shock with words.
“When did you two get together?” Fu Yu frowned in confusion, asking into the phone, “How come I didn’t know anything about it! Your flash marriage speed is too fast!”
“It is quite fast.”
“It’s more than just fast, okay.”
After finishing one cigarette, the surprise in Fu Yu’s heart finally subsided a little. After the call ended, Fu Yu took another cigarette from the box and lit it.
A slender, ladies’ cigarette was clipped between her index and middle fingers, the ember slowly consuming the white paper.
The cigarette had burned through most of its length, leaving a long column of ash. Suddenly, the long segment of ash silently dropped onto the tatami mat.
…
On the big bed in the bedroom, the quilt formed an undulating curve, under which lay a young, beautiful woman.
The woman had straight, shoulder-length chocolate-colored hair, and her skin was fair and translucent. Her bare face softened the sharpness in her eyes and brows.
Suddenly, the woman’s smooth brows furrowed because she smelled smoke.
Lin Yu slowly opened her eyelids. What came into view was a face smiling as charmingly as a flower. A seductive voice rang in her ears.
“You’re awake.”
“Smoke less.” Lin Yu propped herself up, the weariness on her face still evident. She tried to snatch the cigarette from Fu Yu’s fingers.
“You like watching me smoke, don’t you?” Fu Yu nimbly evaded her with the hand holding the cigarette, smiling charmingly and winking at Lin Yu.
“That’s in bed.” Lin Yu stared straight into Fu Yu’s eyes, saying every word clearly, “I like watching you smoke while I top you.”
Lin Yu said this without any trace of embarrassment, in a tone as normal as if she were talking about “eating and sleeping.”
“…!” Fu Yu, who intended to flirt but was countered, blushed and gritted her teeth hard.
She was utterly defeated.
“The way you smoke is truly beautiful,” Lin Yu slowly leaned closer, her warm breath fanning Fu Yu’s fair and delicate neck.
In her memory, Fu Yu’s suppressed, moving gasps were still in her ears, stirring every nerve ending in Lin Yu’s body and making her blood boil.
Kisses, densely packed, fell upon Fu Yu’s neck.
Fu Yu cooperatively arched her swan neck, her bright, clear eyes gradually misting up with moisture, and her red lips slightly parted.
“Lin Yu…”
These days, Fu Yu had been diligently working out and following a diet plan to lose weight to meet Zhang Mingxiu’s requirements.
She only ate two meals a day, skipping dinner, and trying to boil most of her food. Although she didn’t eat entirely vegetarian, the only animal protein she consumed was chicken, shrimp, and boiled eggs, which provided high-quality protein and carbs. Vegetables, a must for every meal, provided dietary fiber, vitamins, and minerals.
Additionally, her fitness coach designed a personalized weight loss program for Fu Yu.
In ten days, Fu Yu successfully lost five kilograms. At this rate, she would reach her goal of losing seven and a half kilograms in about five more days.
Weight loss should not be rushed and should not compromise health; this was Fu Yu’s primary concern. As the lead actress in the drama, a four-month long filming schedule awaited her after joining the crew, and Fu Yu needed to be in excellent physical condition to handle the high-intensity work.
Fortunately, Lin Yu was there to accompany her through this tough time.
Since the two first got intimate, they had been inseparable for a whole week.
Every night, Lin Yu would try various ways to please Fu Yu. Fu Yu felt an unprecedented physical and mental pleasure, with waves of euphoria washing over her.
Every morning when she woke up, Fu Yu felt exceptionally good looking at herself in the mirror. Her skin had been unusually radiant these past few days, her face so soft it seemed like one could pinch water from it, giving her a refreshed, eighteen-year-old look.
A good sexual relationship was indeed a great remedy.
Right after their first encounter, they explicitly stated that no romantic feelings would be involved. This was Fu Yu’s suggestion, and Lin Yu agreed.
However, Lin Yu proposed one condition.
Lin Yu: “I have one condition.”
Fu Yu hooked her arms around Lin Yu’s neck, kissed Lin Yu’s swollen, glistening lips, and charmingly said, “Ms. Lin, please state it. I’ll listen to anything you say.”
Lin Yu gazed at Fu Yu with her almond-shaped eyes, stating clearly, “During the period this relationship is maintained, you cannot date anyone else.”
“To be fair, I, of course, won’t date anyone else either.”
Fu Yu found it a little funny because she saw a hint of childishness on Lin Yu’s face, which completely contradicted the impression Lin Yu had given her before.
Fu Yu curved her lips and smiled happily: “No problem~”
The moment her words fell, a soft touch landed on her lips. Lin Yu’s intensely possessive kiss fiercely sealed Fu Yu’s mouth.
…
Just yesterday, Zhang Mingxiu called Fu Yu, saying he wanted to treat the main cast to dinner that evening. Knowing Fu Yu was dieting, he said he would prepare a separate weight loss meal for her.
Fu Yu swallowed, reluctantly agreeing.
This morning, Fu Yu called Bai Yiyan.
Zhang Mingxiu had instructed her in yesterday’s call to find opportunities to get to know Bai Yiyan better and bond with her, as they had many scenes together in the drama.
In fact, Fu Yu felt the same way. So she proactively called Bai Yiyan this morning, thinking they could go to the restaurant together that evening.
It turned out Bai Yiyan had a cold and a fever and couldn’t make it to the dinner party. Besides that, this phone call successfully uncovered a shocking secret.
Ye Manqing, the famous actress who was considered single by both the public and industry insiders, had actually gotten married in a flash!
Fu Yu had just finished intense exercise. Her beautifully shaped red lips were slightly parted as she lightly gasped, not having fully recovered yet. Not all of her shirt buttons were undone, only up to the third one. This half-hidden, half-exposed look was even more tempting.
Fu Yu was lying flat on the bed, staring at the ceiling. Suddenly, she remembered the incident. She turned her head to look at Lin Yu, who was sitting on the edge of the bed with her back to her, and softly called her name.
Lin Yu turned her body upon hearing her, stopped wiping her fingers with a wet wipe, and asked Fu Yu, “What’s wrong?”
Fu Yu hesitated: “Do you know that Manqing…”
Ye Manqing was a mutual friend, and since she told Fu Yu, she would eventually tell Lin Yu about her marriage, too.
But Fu Yu was also a bit hesitant, thinking it shouldn’t be her to tell Lin Yu this news. So, Fu Yu stopped speaking midway and chose to stay silent.
Lin Yu lowered her gaze, continuing to methodically wipe the stickiness from her fingers with the wet wipe, and said, “Are you trying to say she got married?”
Fu Yu’s eyes suddenly widened. She blinked her long lashes and retorted, “You already know?”
Referring to Ye Manqing’s marriage.
Lin Yu honestly replied, “Yes, I know.”
Fu Yu frowned, completely stunned.
Seeing Fu Yu silent, Lin Yu stood up, looked down at Fu Yu lying on the bed, and said, “I’m going to run a bath for you.”
“…” Fu Yu was somewhat dazed and took a few seconds to realize what was said. She lightly raised her eyes, meeting Lin Yu’s beautiful pupils, which still held a lingering warmth.
“Thank you~”
The woman smiled, her charm inherently seductive.
