Deliberate Possession [Entertainment Industry] - Chapter 93
Chapter 93: Fluffy Collar
Jiang Yumian firmly pressed down on her clothes. It was the middle of the day, and her mother and aunt were home. Even if her room was soundproof, she didn’t dare to roll around in bed with Jing Xiaoyan.
“I’m telling you, Jiang Xiaoyan is going to rush up here soon. The housekeeper won’t be able to stop it for long. What if it leads Mom and Auntie up here?“
Jing Xiaoyan put on her slippers, got up, and pinched Jiang Yumian’s face twice. “Got it. You can’t perform.“
With that, she left the room, leaving Jiang Yumian behind.
Looking at the departing back and the closing door, Jiang Yumian pointed at herself, clearly defiant.
Hmph, I can’t perform?
Jing Xiaoyan played with Jiang Xiaoyan downstairs. After more than ten minutes, she still hadn’t seen Jiang Yumian come out.
She wanted to take Jiang Xiaoyan for a walk outside. The yard was big enough for a long walk, but Jiang Yumian hadn’t come out yet, and she didn’t want to go alone.
Jing Xiaoyan walked the dog upstairs, knocked on the door, and then walked right in. “What are you doing?“
Jiang Yumian, hearing the knock, quickly darkened her phone screen and looked at Jing Xiaoyan guiltily.
Heh… She wasn’t doing anything. Just learning how to make her cry…
Jiang Yumian cleared her throat, opened her phone again with a serious expression. “Nothing much. I was looking at the public opinion trends. Why did you bring Jiang Xiaoyan up?“
As she spoke, she exited the app. When Jing Xiaoyan walked closer, she reopened Weibo.
Jing Xiaoyan didn’t think too much of it. She took her phone and put it in her pocket. “Don’t look anymore. Nothing will happen. Let’s go for a walk.“
She shook the leash in her hand, and Jiang Xiaoyan cooperated with a bark.
Jiang Yumian stared at Jing Xiaoyan’s pocket. Her phone was confiscated. She hadn’t finished reading yet.
She licked her lips. “Fine. Let’s walk the dog.“
Jiang Xiaoyan was more familiar with the route here than they were, always walking ahead of them. It didn’t look like they were walking the dog; it looked more like Jiang Xiaoyan was walking the couple, and they followed wherever it went.
But they were slow, stopping every two steps to take pictures. Jiang Xiaoyan was unhappy. It wasn’t having fun. It felt like it was just their photography prop.
After being held and photographed several times, it finally couldn’t take it anymore. It circled Jiang Yumian, trying to get her to put down her phone.
Jiang Yumian just glanced down at it, ignoring it, and continued choosing photos with Jing Xiaoyan.
Jing Xiaoyan slid the photo that had just passed back. “Let’s choose this one. Jiang Xiaoyan’s impatient expression has a lot of character.“
Jiang Yumian nodded, but hesitated. “Are you sure you want me to post on Weibo?“
“Post it, post it,” Jing Xiaoyan pleaded, pulling on her sleeve.
She was doing it on purpose. If Jiang Yumian posted this on Weibo, her fans and netizens might not guess their relationship, but the young masters and ladies in the business circle definitely would.
She only found out today that the news about Jiang Yumian liking girls was so widespread.
She was declaring her sovereignty.
Jiang Yumian wanted to hand her phone to her to edit the post, but she was afraid she would mess up. She decided to post it herself.
Jiang Yumian V: Jing Xiaoyan is really smiling all the time. I don’t know what she’s laughing at. If you suspect she’s in a bad mood, you’re really overthinking it. She’s happier than the dog. If you don’t believe me, look. [Picture]
“Okay, that’s enough. No more walking. Let’s go home.” After posting, Jiang Yumian grabbed the leash, pulling the protesting Jiang Xiaoyan directly towards the house.
Jing Xiaoyan walked slowly behind, looking at her phone and complaining, “Why are you like that? What’s so great about me being happy? Shouldn’t you say you like to see me smile?“
Jiang Yumian turned back and saw she was far behind, still looking down at her phone. She wanted to hurry her up, wondering if she had to drag her along too. The words on her lips stayed unsaid. The corner of her eye caught the leash in her hand, and her eyes flashed.
Jing Xiaoyan was beside her before she even realized it.
“Why did you stop?“
Jiang Yumian looked up, her gaze fixed on her fair neck. She subconsciously reached out to touch it.
Jing Xiaoyan blinked, pretending not to see Jiang Yumian’s fiery gaze. She slightly retracted her neck, whispering, “Your hand is cold.“
Jiang Yumian didn’t take her hand back just because of her words. Her throat gently rolled, and she leaned closer to her.
Her palm gently rubbed against her warm neck, feeling Jing Xiaoyan’s strong pulse. Her thumb pressed down, and her fingertips gently stroked her. Her long eyelashes trembled. She knew how to bully Jing Xiaoyan now.
Thinking Jiang Yumian wanted to kiss her, Jing Xiaoyan slowly blinked and actively leaned forward.
With the person right in front of her, Jiang Yumian lowered her gaze, focusing on her lips. Her heart skipped a beat. She gently pressed her lips against hers. The hand on her neck gradually moved to the back of her head, pressing Jing Xiaoyan to kiss her.
Jiang Xiaoyan, who had been pacing back and forth, froze in confusion when they suddenly hugged. It bared its teeth and lay down, turning its back to the couple.
Their noses lightly brushed. Jing Xiaoyan grabbed the sides of Jiang Yumian’s coat, her breathing heavy. She slightly opened her eyes, her long eyelashes slowly fluttering. She withdrew her tangled tongue and lightly licked her lips.
After a short kiss, Jiang Yumian slowly released her, her red lips tightly pursed. She licked her moist lips and quickly met Jing Xiaoyan’s smiling, bright eyes.
Still holding Jiang Xiaoyan’s leash, Jiang Yumian turned her eyes away to look at Jiang Xiaoyan, only to be kissed again by Jing Xiaoyan, who had moved closer.
Jing Xiaoyan hugged her, a smile spreading across her face. She rubbed against Jiang Yumian’s cheek, accusing her in a tone that sounded like a complaint. “You rarely initiate a kiss with me.”
Although she was accusing her, it was clear she was very happy, because this time Jiang Yumian initiated the kiss, and it was outside.
Being called out for not being proactive, Jiang Yumian was about to reflect on herself but quickly realized something was wrong.
She slapped Jing Xiaoyan’s back and turned her head to look at her. “Did you give me a chance to be proactive?”
Almost every time they entered the room, as long as they were alone, she always found a way to kiss her or push her down.
Jing Xiaoyan also turned her head, leaned in, and kissed her again. “There are plenty of opportunities. You just don’t think about kissing me. What were you thinking about when you suddenly wanted to kiss me just now?”
Being abruptly reminded, Jiang Yumian raised an eyebrow, her gaze falling on her neck. She took a soft breath, her eyes hiding anticipation. “Nothing. Let’s go back first. It’s cold outside.”
Jing Xiaoyan was led back by her, and she answered for her own. “You must be thinking about those inappropriate things, right?”
“You’re the one who’s inappropriate all the time.”
Jiang Yumian didn’t even look back at her. She stared at Jiang Xiaoyan, wanting to go home quickly.
They reached the house in a few minutes, and Jiang Xiaoyan voluntarily ran back to its bed and lay down.
“You go upstairs first. I need to find something.” After telling Jing Xiaoyan, Jiang Yumian released her hand and turned to look for the housekeeper.
Jing Xiaoyan watched her with confusion, following her eagerly. “What are you looking for?”
Jiang Yumian stopped, stared at her hesitantly for two seconds, and explained without batting an eye. “It’s a gift I bought for Jiang Xiaoyan before. Don’t waste time here. You have so many messages on your phone. Hurry up and reply to them.”
Jing Xiaoyan’s phone kept ringing during their walk. She hadn’t replied to any messages. Although Jiang Yumian knew it wasn’t urgent, she still felt she should reply.
Jing Xiaoyan felt the phone in her pocket and quickly compromised. “Okay, you go find it. I’ll wait for you in the living room. We’ll go up together.”
Having sent Jing Xiaoyan away, Jiang Yumian quickly found the housekeeper and took a few collars from her hand.
“Aunt Lu, has Jiang Xiaoyan used all of these?”
She poked the gold bell on one of them with her finger. It was pure gold.
Aunt Lu nodded and smiled. “Yes, it uses a different one almost every day. It’s used all of them.”
Jiang Yumian sighed softly.
Not wanting the housekeeper to ask why she wanted them, Jiang Yumian casually picked a nice one, pretending she was choosing a collar for Jiang Xiaoyan. “Okay, then let it wear this one with the bell tomorrow. It’s quite nice.”
She didn’t take any of them. She wasn’t too disappointed because even if Jiang Xiaoyan hadn’t used them, she didn’t want to choose from them. It felt a little wrong. They were a bit hard, and Jing Xiaoyan’s skin was so delicate.
Thinking of this, her eyes flashed, and her gaze fell on the person staring at her phone.
Jiang Yumian walked closer and spoke. “I need to go out for a while.”
Jing Xiaoyan was frowning at her phone, having just finished replying to a message. Hearing Jiang Yumian say she was going out, she was stunned for a moment, but her furrowed brows quickly smoothed out. “Where are you going? I’m coming too.”
She put her phone in her pocket and stood up.
Jiang Yumian opened her mouth. “Can’t you just wait for me at home?”
Jing Xiaoyan’s eyes were full of doubt. “Can’t you take me?”
A wronged expression quickly appeared on her face.
Jiang Yumian’s mouth twitched. She could now mostly tell when Jing Xiaoyan was acting. For example, every time she pretended to be wronged, she clearly showed her emotions on her face, afraid she wouldn’t notice.
“I’m just going out to buy something.”
Hearing it wasn’t work or meeting someone, Jing Xiaoyan directly hooked her arm through hers, saying confidently, “I’ll go with you to buy it. What are you going to buy?”
Jiang Yumian looked at her, wanting to speak but stopping herself. She suddenly smiled. “Fine. As for what to buy, you’ll know when we get there.”
Jing Xiaoyan happily followed Jiang Yumian out. She was still replying to messages in the car. Jiang Yumian glanced at her a few times, assuming it was something important, and didn’t disturb her.
Jing Xiaoyan got out of the car with her. They were both wearing masks. They had been frequently on the hot search recently, so they weren’t suitable for public places, especially shopping malls.
Jiang Yumian found a store and didn’t linger outside, leading Jing Xiaoyan directly inside.
Seeing the items in her hand, Jing Xiaoyan’s expression became complicated.
She reached out and touched her neck. Her throat gently rolled. It shouldn’t be what she was thinking, right?
Jiang Yumian was feeling the white fluffy collar in her hand, which also had a bell pendant, but it wasn’t gold.
She hesitated, put it down, and picked it up again, completely unaware of Jing Xiaoyan gradually moving away from her.
Jing Xiaoyan moved one step, then another, away from her. She looked around the store. It wasn’t a pet store at all. It was a store that sold various trinkets that girls loved. It clearly wasn’t for Jiang Xiaoyan…
There were so many dazzling trinkets here. Jiang Yumian didn’t even look at the necklaces and earrings, heading straight for this area. Jing Xiaoyan didn’t dare to think what it meant. She suddenly felt a little dizzy.
Other people bought neck straps and fluffy collars to match their clothes, but she didn’t think that way. She felt Jiang Yumian was going to play a big game with her today.
When her eyes landed on a dog-eared headband in Jiang Yumian’s hand, Jing Xiaoyan felt even dizzier. She couldn’t possibly be planning to buy these items together…
When Jiang Yumian turned around, Jing Xiaoyan was already gone.
She had several fluffy neck straps and a fluffy collar with a bell in her hand. She hadn’t taken the headband because she thought it was ugly.
She looked around the store but couldn’t find Jing Xiaoyan.
She walked around the store and finally found her near a sunglasses display rack.
“What are you doing here?”
As soon as she spoke, her gaze fell on the blindfold Jing Xiaoyan was holding.
Jiang Yumian was stunned. She looked at the items in her hand. Adding Jing Xiaoyan’s item, if they paid for these together, it would be hard not to suspect they were buying adult toys at a boutique store…
Jing Xiaoyan bit her lip, shoved the blindfold into her hand, and said directly, “I want to buy this. You go pay for it.”
Jiang Yumian didn’t ask why she was buying it and flatly refused. “No, you go yourself.”
With that, she shoved the blindfold back into her hand.
“They don’t take cards here. I don’t have money on WeChat,” Jing Xiaoyan immediately retorted.
Not giving Jiang Yumian a chance to speak, she placed the blindfold on the counter, pointed at Jiang Yumian, and then lowered her head and walked out of the store.
Jiang Yumian was speechless. Who told her they don’t take cards here?
But there was no time to verify. Jing Xiaoyan had already left, and the staff was looking at her.
Jiang Yumian’s red lips were tightly pursed behind her mask. She glared at Jing Xiaoyan, her exposed eyes staring at her for a few seconds.
Jing Xiaoyan looked up at the sky, completely ignoring her.
Unable to outmaneuver Jing Xiaoyan, and seeing that she wasn’t coming back in, Jiang Yumian finally bit the bullet and walked to the counter.
Although the cashier didn’t look at her with a teasing gaze, Jiang Yumian kept her head down, grabbed the items, and walked out.
“You wait.”
The gnashing sound of her voice reached Jing Xiaoyan’s ears. Jing Xiaoyan cleared her throat and pretended to be oblivious. “Wait for what? What’s wrong with me?”
