From Trashy A to the Heiress’s Little Son-in-Law After the Idol Competition (GL, ABO) - Chapter 92

Even in this summer retreat, the evenings were still slightly warm.

Ji Yunuo was wearing Xiao Yanjin’s white shirt. Xiao Yanjin preferred oversized shirts, and on Ji Yunuo, the hem reached past her hips, making it seem like she wasn’t even wearing shorts underneath.

Xiao Yanjin held her as they sat on the chair, lifting her slender, snow-white foot.

Ji Yunuo wrapped one arm around her neck while the other teasingly tilted Xiao Yanjin’s chin up.

Xiao Yanjin, meanwhile, picked up a small towel and began carefully wiping Ji Yunuo’s feet.

At first, Ji Yunuo didn’t understand, but then it dawned on her, Xiao Yanjin was still worried that wet feet might cause her to slip, so she wanted to dry them thoroughly.

Xiao Yanjin meticulously wiped every inch, not missing even the spaces between her toes, ensuring no dampness remained before finally letting go. But then she lifted Ji Yunuo’s toes, studying them intently.

The translucent big toe looked slightly plump and bouncy, making Xiao Yanjin’s heart itch with affection.

Ji Yunuo met her burning gaze. Ever since she became pregnant, Xiao Yanjin hadn’t touched her, she must have been holding back.

“Jiejie.”

“Hmm?”

“I’ve realized I’m not a foot fetishist, but I unexpectedly love looking at your feet,” Xiao Yanjin said with utmost seriousness, then added, “Don’t overthink it, I’m not a pervert.”

Ji Yunuo burst into laughter, her hair clinging to her temples like dewy lotus petals, pure and radiant as if glowing.

“If you’re not a pervert, then what are you?”

Xiao Yanjin cupped her hands together playfully and grinned. “I’m your little treasure.”

Ji Yunuo’s eyes shimmered. “I don’t have a treasure as big as you.”

Xiao Yanjin placed her hand on Ji Yunuo’s belly, as if she could feel the baby speaking from within.

“I’ll always be your treasure.”

Nearby, a barbecue grill stood on the grass. Knowing Xiao Yanjin loved grilled food, Ji Yunuo had arranged for it to be set up and stocked with ingredients.

Xiao Yanjin had never grilled before, but confident in her cleverness, she studied the instructions and started cooking with surprising finesse.

She tried to cook the food well-done but ended up burning it instead.

Ji Yunuo watched, barely holding back her laughter.

“Are you even capable?”

Xiao Yanjin couldn’t stand her wife’s teasing.

A competitive fire ignited in her, she refused to believe she couldn’t grill properly.

Fortunately, her intelligence prevailed, and soon, decent skewers were ready.

Just as Ji Yunuo reached for one, Xiao Yanjin snatched it away first.

Watching the alpha devour it in one go, Ji Yunuo frowned. “Xiao Yanjin!”

Xiao Yanjin finished it cleanly. “You drank so much when you first got pregnant, it’s a miracle you didn’t miscarry. Pregnant women shouldn’t eat grilled food. Jiejie, you should stick to the healthy dishes on the table.”

Ji Yunuo glanced at the protein-rich meal on the table and deflated.

If she had to endure this, she wouldn’t suffer alone, she’d drag someone down with her.

Xiao Yanjin forced down a bite of boiled lettuce, her face twisting in agony.

Ji Yunuo held a wine glass filled with water. Once upon a time, it would have been wine, but now it was just water, she didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

“I have something to tell you,” she said, eyes crinkling with amusement.

Xiao Yanjin nodded eagerly.

“Ye Qin Entertainment is collaborating with Menghua TV on a couples’ variety show. I chose to participate with you,” Ji Yunuo announced with a smile.

Xiao Yanjin blinked in surprise. “Mom agreed? Didn’t she forbid you from filming shows?”

Ji Yunuo blinked at her nonchalantly and said, “I decided this secretly. Mom has always been soft-hearted by now, she won’t resist anymore.” She might even end up joining us.

Xiao Yanjin didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, but the last sentence from Ji Yunuo left her stunned.

“Do you know why I want to participate? I want them to see how much Xiao Yanjin loves me, how much the young mistress of the Ji family loves Xiao Yanjin. It’s not some baseless rumor or idle gossip they can toy with.”

How could Ji Yunuo not know about the online chatter?

Many claimed she kept male consorts hidden away, that her past relationship was just a contractual marriage to maintain her pristine, untouchable image. Others said Xiao Yanjin had married into the wealthy Ji family out of desperation after her own family went bankrupt, throwing all dignity to the wind.

Every speculation was harmful to both of them.

Even if the Ji family intervened, they couldn’t possibly silence all comments across every platform. The situation would only escalate.

There was only one solution, to reappear before the public and show them their love was real.

As for the rumors about keeping male consorts, Ji Yunuo wasn’t even angry. In her eyes, Xiao Yanjin was the consort she kept hidden away.

“Jiejie…” Xiao Yanjin had actually thought the same, but she never seriously considered acting on it. For one, Wei Qin forbade Ji Yunuo from engaging in anything related to the entertainment industry. Secondly, she just wanted to quietly enjoy their time together, undisturbed by outside noise.

But Ji Yunuo had thought of this. She was that kind of person, silent until she struck with overwhelming force. She refused to let those she cared about suffer even the slightest harm. She wanted the world to know she loved an alpha named Xiao Yanjin loved her fiercely, loved her completely, loved her forever!

Without another word, Ji Yunuo kicked off her sandals, shrugged off her shirt, sat on the edge, and then leaped into the water.

Xiao Yanjin, startled, jumped in after her.

Two loud splashes sent water flying into the air.

Xiao Yanjin surfaced immediately, shouting, “Jiejie!”

The omega giggled at the alpha’s disheveled state clearly, she was fine.

Ji Yunuo swam up to her, and Xiao Yanjin pulled her close without hesitation, murmuring into her ear, “Don’t do something so reckless again.”

Ji Yunuo reassured her, “Relax, I didn’t just dive in like you did. I sat down first, the water cushions the impact. It’s not dangerous.”

Maybe Xiao Yanjin had been too worried and misjudged the situation.

Xiao Yanjin nodded, wanting to guide her back to shore. “It’s getting late. Let’s go up before you catch a cold.”

“Wait.” Ji Yunuo pressed a finger to her lips.

Xiao Yanjin watched as her omega flushed slightly, her heart melting into a warm, swirling mess.

“What is it?”

Ji Yunuo leaned against her shoulder, pressing a soft, damp kiss to her ear. “We haven’t gone on a date in so long. Are you happy with this one?”

Xiao Yanjin was speechless. To her, every day with Ji Yunuo felt like a date, just seeing her filled her with sweetness. But if her jiejie called this a date, then it must have been carefully planned.

“Of course I’m happy.” Being pampered by her jiejie was always a delight.

Xiao Yanjin patted her backside and huffed, “If you’d told me it was a date, I could’ve gotten you a gift.”

Ji Yunuo smiled faintly, she had already received far too many gifts.

The only one she wanted was Xiao Yanjin.

“Yanjin, I love you.”

“I love you too.”

Deeply moved, Xiao Yanjin suddenly leaned in, kissing her Omega passionately. Lost in the moment, their surroundings were enveloped in the thick, lingering scent of their pheromones.

Amidst the intermittent murmurs, the blissful night felt utterly enchanting.

Recently, Ji Yunuo had been suffering from eye irritation. After consulting a traditional Chinese doctor, she needed daily eye compresses.

This development worried her family terribly.

Wei Qin and Ji Zhiye nagged her constantly about taking better care of her health, while Xiao Yanjin took matters into her own hands, handling everything from meals to laundry, even though there was no real need for her to intervene.

Even when busy filming, Xiao Yanjin made sure to check in, though sometimes she had to travel for shoots. Every night, she would video call to see how her wife was doing.

This weekend, she had no scenes to shoot and had turned down all other schedules and variety show appearances, focusing solely on returning home to care for her wife.

Basking in the gentle sunlight, the couple lounged on the balcony, enjoying the soft breeze in perfect harmony and tranquility.

A white gauze still covered Ji Yunuo’s eyes, secured with a bow at the back, ideal for applying medicine. It accentuated her Omega’s delicate, ethereal beauty, making her appear even more fragile.

Seated on her Alpha’s lap, Ji Yunuo listened attentively to her words.

But Xiao Yanjin simply talked too much, leaving Ji Yunuo slightly overwhelmed.

“Xiao Yanjin, how do you have so much to say?” Ji Yunuo chuckled helplessly.

Xiao Yanjin pouted. “Do you think I talk too much, Jiejie? Can’t I just want to chat with you more?”

Of course, Ji Yunuo didn’t actually mind.

“Jiejie, let me test you—guess what my hands are doing right now?”

Ji Yunuo hummed in thought. “Playing with my hair?”

“You could tell?”

“I felt the movement.”

Xiao Yanjin’s heart swelled with tenderness, holding her even tighter.

“Mhm, my Jiejie is just amazing.”

Blindfolded, Ji Yunuo couldn’t see Xiao Yanjin’s expression, but she could sense the warmth in her voice.

Looping her arms around her neck, she teased softly, “Aren’t you amazing too?”

Xiao Yanjin stroked her back before pulling her closer into an embrace.

“No, no, Jiejie has to be more amazing than me that way, I can openly admire you.”

Ji Yunuo laughed. “How would you admire me?”

Xiao Yanjin glanced at her fair skin before sneakily nipping her cheek.

Ji Yunuo shivered at the ticklish sensation, squirming slightly but Xiao Yanjin held her firmly in place.

“Jiejie, don’t move. You might fall.”

Ji Yunuo huffed. “Then stop fooling around.”

“But I can’t help it.” Xiao Yanjin gazed at Ji Yunuo, her delicate appearance beneath the gauze only making her seem more pitiful. Her heart ached with protectiveness—she wished she could hold her every second, even walking seemed too exhausting for her.

Biting her red lips, Ji Yunuo decided to take the initiative, mimicking Xiao Yanjin’s actions as she pressed her lips against hers. The unrestrained tenderness made Xiao Yanjin melt.

Ji Yunuo laughed. “Xiao Yanjin, have you turned into a puppy lately?”

Xiao Yanjin adored her Omega’s coquettishness.

“I’m only yours.”

She usually disliked idle chatter with Omegas but with her, it was different.

Blushing slightly, Ji Yunuo chided, “You’re such a cheesy little Alpha.”

Xiao Yanjin wasn’t angry at all. At least, that’s what Ji Yunuo claimed, but in reality, she adored it.

It had been two months since she last touched Ji Yunuo, and the longing was unbearable.

Xiao Yanjin gently stroked her smooth arm.

Ji Yunuo shot her a glare but didn’t stop her.

Suddenly, a phone notification chimed. Xiao Yanjin glanced at it, it was a message from Qu Yanran.

She lifted Ji Yunuo onto the bed, feeling the dampness of the white gauze before whispering, “Rest here for a bit, sister. I’ll come back soon to help you remove it.”

“Where are you going?” Ji Yunuo liked leaning against Xiao Yanjin, and without her, she felt oddly unsettled.

“I need to handle something in the study. I’ll be back soon.” Xiao Yanjin kissed her forehead before leaving.

“Hello?”

“Madam Ji, Xue Fengye, the young master of the Xue Group, will be visiting the set tomorrow. Director Gu asked me to inform you.”

Xiao Yanjin frowned. “Xue Fengye? What’s he doing here? This is a film set.”

Qu Yanran: “Isn’t he the major investor backing your company?”

Xiao Yanjin paused, vaguely recalling Jiang Nan mentioning that President Zhang had secured a big sponsor, someone whose investments were crucial to the company. They had even started pushing new actors, including Mu Rouxue, based on the sponsor’s preferences.

That scheming businessman!

Xiao Yanjin’s brow furrowed. Xue Fengye… technically, he was Mu Rouxue’s boss now.

Early the next morning, Xiao Yanjin headed to the set.

The script had transitioned to the modern arc, and filming was now taking place in Lancheng.

Xiao Yanjin lounged in a chair, reviewing the script while Qu Yanran sliced watermelon beside her.

“Good morning, President Xue.”

“President Xue.”

Hearing the greetings up ahead, Xiao Yanjin removed her sunglasses and saw Xue Fengye stride in effortlessly, dressed in a sharp suit.

“Long time no see, Xiao, ” He deliberately paused. “Madam Ji.”

Xiao Yanjin stood up with a smile. “Good to see you, President Xue.”
