Deliberate Possession [Entertainment Industry] - Chapter 54

Chapter 54: My Mianmian

The room was incredibly quiet without the sound of knocking.

Jing Xiaoyan embraced Jiang Yumian, pressing her against the door. Her movement was sudden, and the look in her eyes was scorching, the emotions bursting forth were completely unrestrained.

“Mianmian.”

Caught off guard by Jing Xiaoyan’s gaze, Jiang Yumian’s heart tightened, her pupils rapidly contracting. Just as Jing Xiaoyan leaned in for a kiss, she quickly reached out and covered her mouth.

Soft lips pressed against her palm. Jiang Yumian’s long eyelashes fluttered. Forcing herself to maintain her remaining rationality, she smiled at her. “No need to thank me.”

With that one “no need to thank me,” the intense emotion in Jing Xiaoyan’s eyes gradually faded, and she finally sobered up. She lowered her gaze, looked at the hand covering her, her eyelashes gently fluttering, and closed her eyes in resignation.

Jiang Yumian bit her lip, slowly letting go of her hand.

She slightly shifted her gaze, not daring to look at Jing Xiaoyan, and spoke with forced composure, “Sleep with me tonight then. I’ll play your girlfriend for these three days to help you cut off a pursuer.”

Jing Xiaoyan slowly opened her eyes. Although she had already controlled her emotions, seeing Jiang Yumian’s face still made her heart flutter. As Jiang Yumian was about to leave, she reached out and pulled her into a hug.

Jiang Yumian struggled for a moment, but Jing Xiaoyan hugged her tighter. She blinked, and simply stopped moving.

Jing Xiaoyan sighed deeply, her tone full of melancholy. “My Mianmian…”

Jiang Yumian’s throat moved. That one utterance made her heart itch, and she couldn’t help but respond. She softly hummed “Mhm.”

“Thank you, Mianmian. I’ve put you to a lot of trouble.” Jing Xiaoyan’s voice was soft. After two seconds of contemplation, she added an explanation, “I just couldn’t resist earlier.”

She felt like her tone was sad. Jiang Yumian bit her lip, and her voice also softened considerably. “Mhm, it’s no trouble.”

Jing Xiaoyan lowered her head, resting her chin on Jiang Yumian’s shoulder, rubbing her face against Jiang Yumian’s. She couldn’t help but confess, “I only like you.”

Her heart tightened abruptly. Jiang Yumian closed her eyes, and the hand hanging by her side finally hugged back. A voice in her heart kept reminding her: This is your girlfriend. It’s okay to hug her.

The tense body in her arms visibly relaxed a lot. Jiang Yumian sighed softly, “I know.”

The embrace was suddenly released. Jiang Yumian was startled for a moment, meeting Jing Xiaoyan’s direct gaze, feeling an unprovoked nervousness.

“Then, Mianmian, do you want to be with me?” Jing Xiaoyan’s eyes were full of affection, and her sincere tone was full of expectation.

Almost mesmerized by her eyes, Jiang Yumian bit her tongue, a noticeable blush rising to her neck. She used a deliberately relaxed tone to mask her nervousness. “What are you doing? I already have a girlfriend.”

A forced smile was plastered on her face.

Knowing she would say this, Jing Xiaoyan took her hand and gently squeezed her palm. “I know, but that’s not really a girlfriend, and your girlfriend is…”

“Jing Xiaoyan!” Jiang Yumian interrupted her in a panic.

She wasn’t panicking because she wouldn’t be able to tease Jing Xiaoyan anymore after she confessed. She was just feeling overwhelmed. She wasn’t prepared at all.

Jing Xiaoyan opened her mouth, looking at her as if she wanted to say something but held back. She didn’t dare to speak again, afraid of making her angry.

Jiang Yumian licked her lips, turning her head away, completely avoiding her gaze.

She didn’t dare to look into those eyes.

She steadied her voice and whispered, “No matter what, she is my girlfriend now.”

Her hand gripping Jing Xiaoyan’s tightened slightly. Jing Xiaoyan’s feelings were complex.

“But you clearly like me too.”

Jiang Yumian was startled, then quickly denied it. “I, I never said that.”

Jing Xiaoyan pursed her lips. “You just haven’t realized it.”

She reached out and gently stroked Jiang Yumian’s head. Her soft and gentle voice was very pleasant to the ear. “Mianmian, I’ll give you time to think about this. There’s no need to rush to answer me, but don’t avoid me just because I said these things.”

The words she spoke, and the action of stroking her head, made Jiang Yumian feel a little dazed. For the first time, she truly connected Jing Xiaoyan with the gentle “sugar mommy sister.”

It had been a long time since Jing Xiaoyan spoke to her like this. This long-lost feeling was a little strange.

Jiang Yumian nodded woodenly, indicating that she understood.

Jing Xiaoyan’s eyes were filled with a smile. It was good that she didn’t reject her. She was only afraid that Jiang Yumian wouldn’t face her true feelings and choose to run away from the problem.

Since she was sleeping with Jing Xiaoyan, Jiang Yumian didn’t soak in the bath for long. She came out as soon as she was done.

“You go wash quickly.”

At this moment, Jing Xiaoyan had returned to her previous self, lying comfortably on the bed playing with her phone.

Seeing Jiang Yumian remind her, she hummed in response. As Jiang Yumian walked over, she held up her phone to show her.

“I just blocked that mad dog, Chu Baiyue.”

She looked at Jiang Yumian, seeking praise, her eyes bright, staring intently at the person walking over.

Jiang Yumian raised an eyebrow, sitting down next to her. “You’re blocking her now. Aren’t you afraid it’ll be awkward when you interact during the live broadcast tomorrow?”

“She figured it out just now, but she still doesn’t believe I have a girlfriend. I was too lazy to argue with her, so I blocked her.”

Jing Xiaoyan finished speaking carelessly, put away her phone, got up from the bed, picked up the pajamas from the bedside, and headed for the bathroom to take a shower.

Jiang Yumian suddenly thought of something. She looked at her as if she wanted to say something but held back. Finally, she couldn’t resist opening her mouth to ask, “If I hadn’t cooperated with you earlier, what would you have done?”

As soon as she asked, Jing Xiaoyan’s face lit up, as if she had finally been waiting for her to ask. She looked at her mysteriously.

Jiang Yumian blinked, looking a little confused when Jing Xiaoyan pulled at her collar.

Jing Xiaoyan suddenly sat back down on the bed, leaning close to Jiang Yumian. She pulled down her collar, revealing the obvious tooth mark, and explained excitedly, “See? This is the tooth mark you left on me. I was planning to show it to her, but since you cooperated with me, I didn’t need to.”

Jiang Yumian slightly widened her eyes, looking at her “masterpiece.” A tooth mark that remained until now must mean she bit really hard.

She raised her hand to touch it, realized her action, and quickly retracted her hand. She couldn’t help but ask, “Does it hurt a lot?”

Jing Xiaoyan lowered her gaze, her eyes fixed on Jiang Yumian’s beautiful fingers. She reached out and took her hand, guiding it to her own collarbone. “It hurts, but if you touch it more, it won’t hurt anymore.”

She was talking nonsense again.

However, Jiang Yumian resisted the urge to scold her. Her gaze fell on the area she was touching. Her long eyelashes trembled. Her fingertip touched the delicate skin, sending a ripple through her heart. She gently rubbed it, tracing the mark she had bitten.

She felt a little sorry for her. “Buy some medicine and apply it. It’s my fault for not being careful and biting too hard.”

Jing Xiaoyan quickly shook her head, even swatting her hand away, looking at her defensively. “No applying. I don’t want to. I want it to stay for as long as possible.”

The sympathy she had just felt was completely dispelled by Jing Xiaoyan’s words. Jiang Yumian reached out and pressed down angrily, making Jing Xiaoyan gasp in pain.

Hearing her sharp intake of breath, Jiang Yumian gently rubbed the spot again, speaking to her in a rare gentle tone, “Go take a shower quickly. I’ll buy some medicine for you on my phone and have it delivered by delivery.”

Jing Xiaoyan blinked, meeting Jiang Yumian’s non-negotiable gaze. Finally, she had no choice but to compromise.

“Fine, but it probably won’t disappear by tomorrow. Hmph, if Chu Baiyue doesn’t believe I have a girlfriend, I’ll show this to her directly!”

Jiang Yumian was amused by her childishness. Her gaze fell on her collarbone. Thinking of her showing it to someone else, she subconsciously frowned and reached out to pull up her collar.

“There’s no need to prove anything. Even if you don’t have a girlfriend, you can still reject her directly. Dislike is dislike. If you want to completely sever her intentions, I can cooperate with you.”

Just don’t let her show her collarbone. She didn’t want anyone else to see it.

Jiang Yumian pursed her lips. It must be Jing Xiaoyan infecting her. It was making her inexplicably possessive too. But she couldn’t deny that she seemed to truly like her.

Jing Xiaoyan nodded, clutching her collar. “Then you be my girlfriend. You need to be a little more dominant. Mhm… and show more love for me.”

She was truly cunning. Now she was laying her intentions bare for her to see.

Jiang Yumian picked up the nearby pajamas and shoved them into her arms. “Go wash up and go to sleep quickly.”

After sending Jing Xiaoyan into the bathroom, Jiang Yumian lay on the bed, leaving half the space for Jing Xiaoyan. She held her phone, lost in thought.

Before, she would tell the “sugar mommy sister” about any worries, but the question she had now…

Jiang Yumian tilted her head, her gaze falling on the frosted glass of the bathroom. She pondered for a long time before looking away.

Sea Cotton has Baby: “Sister, Jing Xiaoyan confessed to me again.”

Sea Cotton has Baby: “I feel like I should like her.”

Sea Cotton has Baby: “But we’ve only known each other for a month. I don’t understand her, and I’ve never been in a relationship. I don’t really understand this feeling. When others tell me they like me, I actually get a little surprised, which is how it is now. So maybe I don’t like Jing Xiaoyan that much.”

Sea Cotton has Baby: “My current liking for Jing Xiaoyan is probably the kind that I can withdraw at any time. It doesn’t seem that intense. I’m afraid I’ll let her down.”

Jiang Yumian put down her phone, closed her eyes, and sighed deeply. She suddenly felt that it was good to be able to tell Jing Xiaoyan the words she couldn’t say face-to-face in this way.

A few minutes later, the delivery she ordered arrived. It was just a small box of ointment. Jiang Yumian waited for the delivery guy to leave before picking it up. Jing Xiaoyan coincidentally came out of the bathroom after blow-drying her hair.

She followed behind Jiang Yumian, her eyes on her hand. “Just this one box? Will applying it once be enough?”

Jiang Yumian pulled her to sit on the edge of the bed and handed her the ointment. “Twice a day.”

Jing Xiaoyan nodded helplessly. “You apply it for me.”

Jiang Yumian glanced at her, directly took the ointment, unscrewed the cap, and then lowered her head to tear off a cotton swab. Her peripheral vision caught sight of the phone she was looking at, and she quickly shifted her gaze.

Holding the cotton swab, she pointed to Jing Xiaoyan’s collar without changing her expression. “Unbutton your shirt. I’ll apply it for you.”

Hearing her voice, Jing Xiaoyan subconsciously turned off her phone and hid it behind her. She froze when she met Jiang Yumian’s gaze, staring at her blankly, her emotions surging uncontrollably.

“Mianmian.”

Jiang Yumian’s throat tightened. Every time Jing Xiaoyan looked at her like this, she couldn’t help but call out to her.

She pretended to be confused. “What’s wrong? Stop spacing out. I asked you to unbutton your shirt. We’ll go to sleep after applying the medicine.”

Jing Xiaoyan reacted and quickly nodded. Her fingers went to her pajamas, unbuttoning two buttons, pulling open her collar a little to make it easier for Jiang Yumian to apply the medicine.

Applying the medicine only took a moment. Jiang Yumian finished applying it, discarded the cotton swab, and placed the small box of ointment on the bedside table. She pretended not to notice Jing Xiaoyan who was typing, and crawled into bed from the other side.

She opened her phone. Jing Xiaoyan had indeed replied to her.

Surname Jing: “It’s alright, Mianmian. Just follow your heart and take it slowly.”

Surname Jing: “Jing Xiaoyan is too rushed. Don’t be afraid, Mianmian.”

Sea Cotton has Baby: “Got it, Sister. Don’t worry. I have a live broadcast tomorrow. I should sleep. Good night, Sister.”

Surname Jing: “Good night, Mianmian.”

Jiang Yumian pursed her lips and smiled. She thought about it and changed the contact name to “Sister.”

She then remembered that the person was sitting right next to her. She secretly peeked, but her gaze was caught. Jing Xiaoyan was also looking at her.

Jing Xiaoyan saw her smile, and her heart was inexplicably sour. She was jealous of herself again.

She sighed softly. “It’s time to sleep, Mianmian.”

Jiang Yumian nodded, planning to put away her phone. But seeing Jing Xiaoyan looking at her phone again after speaking, she hesitated for a while, waiting. Finally, she received… money from her.

Sister: “Mianmian, I almost forgot. A month has passed. Sister will renew for another month.”

Jiang Yumian covered her face with her hand. She had said before that she would repay the money, but after finding out it was Jing Xiaoyan, she hadn’t. She had been putting it off until now.

Forget it. She’d maintain the relationship until she decided to expose her.

Jiang Yumian accepted the money.

Sea Cotton has Baby: “Okay, Sister! I just happened to need money again! Sister, mwah!”

Sister: “Mwah!”

Jing Xiaoyan couldn’t help but laugh out loud. When Jiang Yumian looked at her, she quickly shut her mouth, saying seriously, “Mianmian, it’s really time to sleep. It’s very late.”

Jiang Yumian scrutinized her for two seconds and said self-righteously, “Aren’t you the one who’s been playing on your phone?”

Jing Xiaoyan blinked, shoved her phone under the pillow, and then pulled the quilt and lay down, looking like “I didn’t do it, I’m already asleep.”

Defeated by her, Jiang Yumian smiled. She got up, turned off the lights, and then lay down.

She had expected the person next to her to snuggle up to her under the covers, but Jiang Yumian still couldn’t control her nervousness.

Jing Xiaoyan lightly cleared her throat, finding an excuse. “Mianmian, I’m timid. I need to hold you to sleep. Otherwise, I’m afraid I won’t be able to fall asleep.”

As she spoke, her arms were already wrapped around her. Then, in less than two seconds, she was slapped away by the reserved Jiang Yumian.

When she persistently hugged her for the sixth time, Jiang Yumian angrily groaned.

She said very impatiently, “Hug, hug, hug! Go on! Hug!”
