Deliberate Possession [Entertainment Industry] - Chapter 116

Chapter 116: Pillow Princess

“I’m not weak at all…” Jing Xiaoyan weakly argued for herself. Six continuous hours, wasn’t that invincible?

Jiang Yumian raised an eyebrow and laughed at her. “Not weak? Then tonight you…”

Jing Xiaoyan immediately blocked her mouth with a kiss, simply refusing to let her finish the sentence.

They nuzzled for a while before letting go. Jiang Yumian leaned against Jing Xiaoyan, breathing softly, her eyes vacant and somewhat distracted.

She vaguely sensed what Jing Xiaoyan was thinking, but she found it a bit unbelievable. Jing Xiaoyan actually didn’t want to sleep with her anymore…

Jiang Yumian’s heart sank the more she thought about it. With her heavy heart, she had no mood to continue being intimate with Jing Xiaoyan.

Although Jing Xiaoyan’s clingy, demanding-kisses demeanor was unlikely to be what she just thought—that she was being too sensitive—the mere possibility made her feel very uncomfortable. She felt she needed some peace and quiet.

“Let’s go down and see. We can’t let Aunt and Sister An be so awkward.” Jing Xiaoyan shook Jiang Yumian’s arm, still unaware of her unusual state.

Jiang Yumian withdrew her hand, feeling a little scared. The more she thought about it, the more wronged she felt. She lowered her head to hide her sudden surge of emotion and said softly, “You go first. I need to use the restroom.”

The overly low tone was hard to miss.

Jing Xiaoyan was slightly confused. She followed closely behind Jiang Yumian, placing a hand on her shoulder and gently squeezing. “What’s wrong?”

Jiang Yumian paused, turned to look at Jing Xiaoyan, and asked seriously, “Will you be annoyed if I’m too clingy?”

“What kind of joke are you making?” Jing Xiaoyan’s eyes widened slightly, and her tone rose a few notches, as if Jiang Yumian’s question had set her off. She seemed particularly surprised and dissatisfied.

Jiang Yumian froze in place. This tone was completely different from what she had expected. Shouldn’t she have answered something like, “Of course not, I wish you would be more clingy”?

Couldn’t she even use this standard response template?

But the reality was indeed different from Jiang Yumian’s imagination.

Jing Xiaoyan was amused by her question. She took a light breath and continued to answer, “I wish you would cling to me, but didn’t you go on a business trip right after the show finished? Who gave you the illusion that you’re clingy?”

Her tone wasn’t answering a question but rather questioning, and it was filled with deep resentment and dissatisfaction.

Jing Xiaoyan replayed Jiang Yumian’s question in her mind. The more she thought about it, the angrier she got, and she couldn’t help but let out a dry laugh. She had originally thought that since Jiang Yumian was so busy with work, she shouldn’t be too clingy, so she hadn’t dared to complain.

But today, Jiang Yumian actually had the nerve to ask the question she wanted to ask!

Jiang Yumian nervously licked her lip. Her initial thoughts were scattered by Jing Xiaoyan’s sudden emotion.

She stood there, a little at a loss, feeling that Jing Xiaoyan was a bit angry. It was true that she left whenever she had work, ignoring Jing Xiaoyan’s feelings.

It turned out she had been holding it in, and she really cared.

The atmosphere was quiet for a few seconds. Jiang Yumian bit her lip, blinked, grabbed Jing Xiaoyan’s shirt hem, and gently tugged, cautiously asking, “Are you angry?”

Jing Xiaoyan frowned, thought for a second, then pushed her hand away, turned slightly away from Jiang Yumian, and remained silent.

Jiang Yumian immediately wrapped her arms around her. “It’s my fault.”

Jing Xiaoyan pushed her, frowning and seriously accusing, “Game first, work second, girlfriend third. After a while, who knows, maybe it will be fourth.”

Jiang Yumian was choked by her words and felt guilty for a few seconds. She quickly cupped Jing Xiaoyan’s face. “You’re first. Of course, you’re first. I was only focused on work. How about I apologize? Don’t be angry, okay?”

As Jiang Yumian spoke, she leaned in to kiss Jing Xiaoyan’s lips, coaxing her like this, smoothing out Jing Xiaoyan’s ruffled feathers one by one.

Jing Xiaoyan visibly calmed down, slowly lowering her head to let Jiang Yumian kiss her.

Jiang Yumian’s hands cupping her face moved back, rubbing Jing Xiaoyan’s ears. She leaned her forehead forward, pressing it against Jing Xiaoyan’s, and asked softly, “I have to go on another business trip there in two weeks. Can you come with me?”

Jing Xiaoyan’s eyes trembled. She pursed her lips slightly, hesitated for a few seconds, and shook her head. “You don’t need to change your original work plan just because I’m unhappy now. I won’t be unreasonable about your work.”

Although she sounded a bit like she was being unreasonable just now, she was just complaining. She truly didn’t expect Jiang Yumian to change her work plan for her; she just wanted Jiang Yumian to think of her more often.

Jiang Yumian hugged her tighter. Jing Xiaoyan had indeed never interfered with her work.

“But you were already in my plan for the next trip. After staying there for a few days, I really couldn’t stand not having you around. I originally wanted to tell you today, asking you to come with me, but now I’m afraid you’ll think I’m clingy…”

With this explanation, Jing Xiaoyan’s heart warmed. Her frown quickly eased, and she looked down at Jiang Yumian, confused.

Her attitude was clearly different. She opened her mouth and asked uncertainly, “Did you… ask that because of this, wanting me to go with you?”

As soon as she finished asking, without even needing an answer, the corners of her lips curled up visibly, but she quickly suppressed it.

Jiang Yumian saw her entire facial expression.

Jiang Yumian cleared her throat and chuckled. “Mhm, I told you, I want you to go with me.”

Although her reason for asking that question initially wasn’t this, she had thought about it. It was close enough, and it was okay for Jing Xiaoyan to understand it this way. At least it made her happy.

Jing Xiaoyan restrained the smile on her face with modesty. “Then when I go filming in a few days, if you’re free, will you come to see me?”

That movie needed her to re-shoot a few scenes.

Jiang Yumian smiled and nodded. “Sure, I’ll go if I have time.”

Realizing that Jing Xiaoyan needed her company so much, Jiang Yumian couldn’t hide her joy. Her originally anxious heart settled firmly back in her chest. She felt that she was overly sensitive and overthinking things. Jing Xiaoyan didn’t look like she didn’t want to be intimate with her at all.

However, her reaction of blocking her mouth just now was indeed not normal. She needed to investigate.

Jiang Yumian put her hand on Jing Xiaoyan’s shoulder, preventing her from coming closer. “I need to use the restroom. You go down first.”

Jing Xiaoyan glanced inside. “You go ahead. I’ll wait for you.”

Jiang Yumian quickly entered the bathroom, sat on the toilet lid, and took out her phone.

SpongeBaby: “Mumu, is your relationship with Sister Yunyun stable?”

Mumu: “Very stable. Why? Did you and Jing Xiaoyan quarrel?”

SpongeBaby: “Aiya, we didn’t quarrel. I mean, in that aspect…”

Mumu: “Why are you asking about that?”

Mumu: “Tsk, is Jing Xiaoyan not good?”

Jiang Yumian ground her back teeth. She really wanted to save Jing Xiaoyan’s face, but Jing Xiaoyan was clearly acting strange today.

SpongeBaby: “Sort of. She said herself that she’s not very good today.”

Jiang Yumian deliberately ignored the fact that Jing Xiaoyan was on her period, as it sounded like an excuse anyway.

On the other side, Su Mumu held her phone, uncharacteristically not mocking Jiang Yumian. Instead, she frowned and sank into thought, occasionally glancing at Chu Qianyuan.

She hesitated for a long time before asking Jiang Yumian, [Just tell me if she suddenly doesn’t want to sleep with you, and if she’s complimented you on how good you are.]

Being asked so directly made Jiang Yumian’s face flush. But her brow quickly furrowed, because Su Mumu had guessed correctly. Was this normal between couples?

SpongeBaby: “Indeed…”

SpongeBaby: “So, is this normal?”

Mumu: “Normal, my foot. I just remembered something.”

Mumu: “Jing Xiaoyan came to ask Yunyun for some tips before… They stopped talking after I heard the first part.”

Jiang Yumian was dumbfounded, taking a long time to react. Something like this actually happened?

Chu Qianyuan and Jing Xiaoyan were both trying to figure out how to be the “pillow princess”?

What were those two up to?

Jing Xiaoyan actually took it to heart, making her overthink so much…

SpongeBaby: “I don’t understand.”

Mumu: “Your lady probably didn’t take Yunyun’s advice to heart at the time, but now she probably gets it and thinks she’s right. Did you do something to her recently?”

Jiang Yumian’s thoughts paused. She quickly pursed her lips and smiled somewhat embarrassedly. She didn’t do much, just forced her into a six-plus-hour, thoroughly enjoyable “battle” with her, that’s all.

Thinking about it that way, no wonder…

It seemed like she was truly exhausted.

Jiang Yumian held her forehead. She was truly speechless. What was Chu Qianyuan teaching her girlfriend?!

Her good friend on the other side sent another message. Jiang Yumian read it, and her eyes twitched.

Mumu: “I just thought about it. I also think what Yunyun said makes a lot of sense. I’m going to ‘discipline’ her now. Talk later, bye.”

SpongeBaby: “Damn it, you two are having sex in broad daylight!”

Mumu: “It’s when passion runs deep!”

Jiang Yumian gently scoffed, quickly reminding Su Mumu while she was still online.

SpongeBaby: “Conversation content is strictly prohibited from being spread.”

SpongeBaby: “It’s too embarrassing.”

Mumu: “Got it, got it. I won’t waste your time. Bye!”

Ending the private conversation with her friend, Jiang Yumian stood up, theatrically flushed the toilet, and then theatrically washed her hands, adjusting herself in front of the mirror.

She looked up at herself in the mirror. Her just-dried hand touched her neck, and her eyes instantly held a sly smile.

She wants to be the pillow princess?

She’d really like to see if Jing Xiaoyan could resist tonight.

Emerging from the bathroom, before she could even speak, Jing Xiaoyan, who was obediently sitting on the bed waiting, immediately stood up, grabbed her, and hugged her.

Jiang Yumian was a little confused. She reached out to hug her back, her voice questioning, “Hmm?”

Jing Xiaoyan rubbed her face against hers. “I shouldn’t have had that attitude just now. I’ve calmed down now. It’s my fault.”

That was the first time she hadn’t held back and had been harsh with Jiang Yumian. Although it wasn’t exactly harsh, it had never happened before. She had indeed been taking things for granted, thinking that Jiang Yumian would always gently coax her, which made her more and more reckless.

“I feel like you’ve spoiled me too much.” Jing Xiaoyan held Jiang Yumian tightly. She had been thinking about it a lot during those few minutes sitting on the bed.

The main thing was that she clearly heard that Jiang Yumian was unhappy at the time.

Jiang Yumian lightly patted her back. “You’re my girlfriend, my future wife. Your attitude was fine. Plus, I quite like it.”

It would be wrong if she had no emotion.

If Jing Xiaoyan were to interact with her so cautiously, constantly self-reflecting, Jiang Yumian would truly be sad.

Jing Xiaoyan nodded after listening. “I just feel like I’ve changed a little. I wasn’t like this when I was chasing you.”

Jiang Yumian twitched the corner of her mouth. She felt like her girlfriend kept stealing her lines. She didn’t know what to say to her.

When she was chasing her…

Jiang Yumian remembered something and suddenly laughed. “You were actually like this when you were chasing me. You just didn’t realize it.”

Jing Xiaoyan turned her head. Was she? She didn’t feel like it.

“Back when you hadn’t caught me yet, you wanted to hug me to sleep. I thought you were shameless back then, and you had quite a temper. Didn’t I always have to coax and give in to you?”

Being led toward the door by Jiang Yumian, Jing Xiaoyan blinked. “Did I?”

Jiang Yumian snorted and looked back at her. “Do you think I would let just anyone touch me, hug me to sleep, and let them kiss my face and bite my neck?”

She hadn’t seriously argued with her and let her mess around. So, Jing Xiaoyan had always been like this, and her little temper had always been there, too, just it was expressed in silent sulking. After they got together, it became more obvious because she could express it openly.

Jing Xiaoyan was secretly pleased, but before she could show off, Jiang Yumian grabbed her hand, stopping her from walking.

The two stood at the top of the stairs. Jiang Yumian gestured to Jing Xiaoyan to be quiet, pointing to Sister An and her aunt who had just come out of the room downstairs.

Jing Xiaoyan clung to the staircase railing. She and Jiang Yumian simultaneously crouched down, secretly looking downstairs.

Her aunt lived on the first floor. She was too lazy to take the stairs. The room they just came out of was her aunt’s.

Jiang Yumian lowered her voice. “Are they sleeping in the same room?”

Was this the place her aunt arranged for Sister An to stay?

Jing Xiaoyan looked up, also lowering her voice. “Should we go down?”

Jiang Yumian shook her head, her eyes full of gossip. “Let’s watch first.”

She had only recently figured out why her aunt hadn’t returned to China for so many years.

She felt that all the talk about being afraid of her mother discovering the fake marriage was an excuse.

Her mother had discovered it now and was indeed strict with her aunt, but she didn’t do much. So, the biggest reason was probably that her aunt was avoiding Sister An. She was afraid to come back.

The two people in the living room downstairs were sitting on the sofa, talking about something. They weren’t too close or too far apart.

Jiang Yumian was getting a little anxious watching.

Jing Xiaoyan sat on the stairs, also looking that way, muttering, “Did we call them by the wrong seniority? We call Sister An ‘Sister’ and Aunt ‘Aunt,’ right…”

Jiang Yumian turned to look at Jing Xiaoyan. She blinked. She felt that what she said made sense, but…

“I think calling her Sister An sounds better.”

Jing Xiaoyan also nodded.

Downstairs, her aunt must have said something. Sister An frowned, staring intently at her aunt. Jing Xiaoyan could feel the coldness even from upstairs.

She lowered her voice. “Sister An wasn’t like this before. Why does it feel like she’s a completely different person when she sees my aunt?”

Jiang Yumian felt the same way. Her Sister An used to be kind, approachable, gentle, and understanding…

Now she had completely changed. It felt like her eyes could kill. Just sitting there made people afraid.

Although they couldn’t hear anything clearly from upstairs, it didn’t stop the two of them from watching. However, they were exposed after watching for only a short time.

Jiang Xiaoyan, the dog, ran past her aunt and Sister An like the wind, rushing upstairs. Jing Xiaoyan quickly stood up and patted Jiang Xiaoyan’s head.

Because she hadn’t been back for a long time, Jiang Yumian was closely clung to by Jiang Xiaoyan. It only settled down after she hugged it for a while.

The people downstairs also looked up. Jiang Yumian paused, leading the dog and Jing Xiaoyan downstairs.

“Sister An, what would you like to eat? I’ll ask Auntie to make it.” Jiang Yumian sat down across from them, her hand petting Jiang Xiaoyan’s head.

An Zhiying was clearly in a bad mood. She took a light breath. “No, I won’t eat here. I’m going back.”

As soon as she finished speaking, she picked up her bag, stood up, and prepared to leave.

Everyone in the living room was stunned for a moment. Jing Xiaoyan glanced at her surprised aunt and quickly stood up to persuade her to stay. “Sister An, you just got here. Mianmian hasn’t had a meal with you in a long time. I’ll have the driver take you back later.”

Jiang Yumian quickly nodded, looking pitifully at An Zhiying. “Are you going back to accompany your two new artists? How can you be like this? You’re not even willing to have one meal with me. You really don’t love me anymore!”

As soon as she finished speaking, Jing Xiaoyan and her aunt both looked at Jiang Yumian.

Jing Xiaoyan softly snorted. Love, what love?

Jiang Yumian deliberately spouted nonsense like this. An Zhiying’s mood improved slightly. “Those two artists are with Guan Jing now. Why would I accompany them? Do you think I’m an emperor with concubines on my left and right?”

Seeing her aunt’s frown quickly ease, Jing Xiaoyan sighed softly, giving her aunt a look. Seriously, hurry up and ask her to stay.

Jiang Yumian roughly rubbed Jiang Xiaoyan’s head, her tone bossy. “I don’t care. You have to eat with me today. If you don’t keep me company, I’ll cry for you to see.”

Sister An chuckled lightly, straightening her collar. “You’re threatening me by crying? That’s useless. Your wife will coax you.”

After saying that, she glanced at Jiang Jifeng, who was sitting there, and coldly snorted. “I’ll leave first. I can’t eat here. It ruins my appetite.”

That last remark was quite serious, not giving any face at all.

Jiang Yumian was stunned, not daring to speak again.

But heaven had eyes. Her aunt finally moved.

She grabbed Sister An’s hand, preventing her from leaving immediately.

An Zhiying frowned, pulling her wrist away, her voice icy. “Let go.”

Her hand didn’t let go. Jiang Jifeng looked at Jiang Yumian. “You two go walk the dog.”

The meaning was very clear. Jiang Yumian quickly said “okay,” stood up, pulled Jing Xiaoyan with her, and the excited Jiang Xiaoyan on the leash.

As they were changing shoes and heading out, they vaguely overheard some of the conversation inside, which seemed to be about the fake marriage.

After walking some distance, Jiang Yumian let out a huge sigh of relief. “I think Sister An knows about Aunt’s fake marriage.”

Jiang Yumian walked with the dog, leaning half her body against Jing Xiaoyan.

She added, “It was really scary just now. Sister An is so fierce.”

If Jing Xiaoyan said that looking at her eating would ruin her appetite, she would be devastated.

Jing Xiaoyan half-hugged her, lightly rubbing her head. “She wasn’t fierce to you.”

“I used to think my aunt was so amazing, living a life of abstinence for so many years, never looking for a partner. I didn’t expect that she wasn’t avoiding looking, but always had someone she liked.”

Jiang Yumian turned her head to look at her. “What are you talking about? Why look for a partner? She’s already married. Even though it’s a fake marriage, you can’t encourage her to cheat, right? Besides, my aunt hasn’t even admitted to liking Sister An yet, and you already know?”

Jing Xiaoyan tapped her head. “They have a fake marriage. There’s nothing between them except a certificate. And if she really finds true love, she can just get a divorce. There won’t be any cheating. Also, it’s quite obvious that my aunt likes Sister An. She was jealous just now.”

She could tell. Her aunt was just as jealous as she was.

Jiang Yumian shrugged. “Let’s not talk about them. Whether the house can be livelier and become five people depends on my aunt’s capability.”

Jiang Xiaoyan suddenly jumped twice. “Woof! Woof!”

Jing Xiaoyan looked at it and smiled. “Six, six. Including you, six. Is that enough?”

Jiang Xiaoyan wagged its tail happily.

Jiang Yumian was a little surprised. “It can count now?”

Jing Xiaoyan raised an eyebrow. “Of course. Although only a little.”

“Woof! Woof!”

Jiang Yumian smiled. But a cold wind blew, and she shivered, pulling her neck in. She had only put on a little when she rushed out and didn’t go back to get a coat.

Jing Xiaoyan was also a little cold. They definitely couldn’t go back to the living room now.

“It’s cold outside. Shall we go check out the small kitchen?”

The kitchen where the auntie cooked was not the one inside the villa. The one in the villa was only used for making breakfast or midnight snacks. The auntie had her own dedicated kitchen.

Jiang Yumian leaned into her for warmth. “Sure. I haven’t had your cooking in a long time. Do you want to try your hand at it?”

Jing Xiaoyan smiled. “Okay.”

When they went to the kitchen, the auntie had just finished cooking, conveniently vacating the space for Jing Xiaoyan. She only needed to add one more dish; it wouldn’t take long.

Jiang Xiaoyan was led away by the cooking auntie. Only the two of them were left in the kitchen. Jiang Yumian couldn’t stay idle. She clung to Jing Xiaoyan, asking her to teach her how to cook. After a long time, she managed to stir-fry some vegetables with no technical skill whatsoever.

“They say stir-fried tomato and eggs are simple. Teach me that next time.” Jiang Yumian held the plate of freshly cooked vegetables, feeling no sense of accomplishment.

Jing Xiaoyan casually “mhm’d” twice, her attitude extremely perfunctory, which immediately got her face pinched by Jiang Yumian.

“Hey, hey, hey, who are you looking down on?”

Jing Xiaoyan looked at her, smiling without speaking.

Jiang Yumian snorted a few times and made a grand declaration. “Auntie will have a holiday during the New Year. We won’t eat out this year. I’ll cook!”

Jing Xiaoyan raised an eyebrow. “Wow~ Really?”

Jiang Yumian lifted her chin. “Of course it’s real, but you have to teach me.”

“Okay, whatever you want to learn.” Jing Xiaoyan took the dish away. Just as she was about to leave, she turned back.

Jiang Yumian paused while serving soup. “What’s wrong?”

Jing Xiaoyan asked, “Is there a family banquet before the New Year?”

Jiang Yumian’s expression froze. “Yes. There are so many, so many relatives. From my dad’s side, my mom’s side, so many, at least nearly a hundred.”

She wasn’t exaggerating at all. She had four grandfathers. Her own grandfather was the oldest. The grandfathers had many sons and daughters. Her mother’s side also had many…

Don’t be fooled by the small number of people in her immediate family; every New Year was the most terrifying. That huge living room was overflowing with people, or they would go out to eat. In any case, Jiang Yumian was essential.

She had so many relatives in her phone contacts. She hadn’t deleted Jing Xiaoyan’s WeChat contact even though she didn’t recognize her because of this. She was afraid of accidentally deleting someone.

Jiang Yumian swallowed. “You’re not going to make me cook for the family banquet, are you?”

Jing Xiaoyan twitched her mouth. “Do you think I’m crazy?”

“I was just asking you.”

Seeing Jing Xiaoyan’s wrinkled face, Jiang Yumian blinked. “It’s okay. Don’t worry. We’ll just make an appearance and then hide in the room. Mom won’t say anything. I do it every year.”

Jing Xiaoyan hesitated to speak, feeling that Jiang Yumian was taking it too lightly. It wasn’t that simple.

She sighed softly. “It’s okay. Let’s eat.”

It had been over half an hour. Her aunt and Sister An should be done talking.

Jiang Yumian nodded. Speaking of the family banquet, she suddenly remembered something she hadn’t told her. She quickly reminded her, “Are you free the day after tomorrow? There’s a banquet. You should come with me.”

A banquet?

Jing Xiaoyan frowned slightly.

Remembering the flowers Cui Kun sent recently and the invitation written on the card inside, Jing Xiaoyan expressionlessly shook her head.

“Do we have to go?”

She thought Jiang Yumian hadn’t taken it seriously.

Jiang Yumian nodded. “Let’s go. It would be nice to watch a show.”

Jing Xiaoyan raised an eyebrow. “Fine. I’ll take the opportunity to establish your persona for you.”

“What persona…” Jiang Yumian stopped mid-question. She remembered. Wife-controlled husband.

Was she really going to do it?

“How about you don’t go? Stay home and rest well. I don’t need a female companion.”

“Dream on.” Jing Xiaoyan rejected her mercilessly, then turned her back on her and left, giving her no chance to argue.

Jiang Yumian carried the soup to the dining room. The dishes on the table were mostly ready. She looked toward the living room. Her aunt and Sister An weren’t there, only Jing Xiaoyan, who had just walked over.

She walked toward her and sat down next to Jing Xiaoyan.

“Sister An’s bag is still here. She hasn’t left yet, has she?” Jiang Yumian asked, already knowing the answer.

Jing Xiaoyan was playing on her phone. Hearing the question, she nodded. “They probably went back to the room to talk. We’ll go call them in ten minutes. If they don’t come out, we’ll eat first.”

Jiang Yumian didn’t understand. “Why wouldn’t they come out?”

Jing Xiaoyan turned her head to look at her, speaking with a half-smile. “It’s better if they don’t come out.”

With that said, Jiang Yumian would be foolish not to understand.

Jiang Yumian glared at her, wanting to say she was being indecent, but the words caught in her throat. Her eyes brightened slightly. “Then let’s not call them. They’ll come out to find food when they’re hungry.”

Jing Xiaoyan nodded slightly. “That makes some sense, but it’s a bit rude for us to eat alone.”

That was exactly what Jiang Yumian was waiting for her to say. Jiang Yumian’s eyes curved in a smile. She quickly nestled into Jing Xiaoyan’s arms, hugging her neck and kissing her.

Jing Xiaoyan instinctively glanced at her aunt’s room door, afraid the people inside would suddenly come out, but she didn’t stop Jiang Yumian’s inexplicable kisses, her hands wrapped around her waist.

Jiang Yumian ended the kiss on her cheek, smiling. “Exactly. So let’s not eat either.”

Jing Xiaoyan looked up at her. “Huh?”

She was so excited to cook a dish herself today. Was she really going to not eat it?

The smile on Jiang Yumian’s face deepened. She pulled Jing Xiaoyan’s hand and placed it on her waist, clearly hinting. “Let’s go back to the room too and not come out.”

Jing Xiaoyan’s heart leaped with joy. Jiang Yumian’s assertiveness made her feel sweet inside. She picked up Jiang Yumian, intending to leave, but then remembered something and immediately sat back down.

Jiang Yumian looked at her, smiling. “What’s wrong?”

She was almost overwhelmed by Jiang Yumian’s sudden assertiveness. Jing Xiaoyan’s heart was conflicted. She was so torn. She had two little people fighting in her head right now.
