Chapter 4: You Have To Be My Model Whenever I Need You.
Seeing that Mo Yingxue was still looking at her, Yue Lei hummed and tensed her thighs.
Then, afraid of being discovered, she pretended to be socially awkward and anti-social, secretly pulling her legs in.
Although she hadn’t done it on purpose, she felt guilty, like a thief.
Yue Lei stared straight ahead, not even daring to smell the fragrance on her wife.
She wanted to use her cold attitude to scare Mo Yingxue away.
Who would have thought that her usually cold and unapproachable wife would be so clingy in college?
However, the next second, Mo Yingxue leaned in again, with half of her body resting on Yue Lei.
Her eyes were intentionally or unintentionally looking at her neck.
Yue Lei was wearing a black and white striped shirt today, with the top two buttons undone.
The exposed skin felt as if it was being burned by her gaze and was slightly hot.
Yue Lei couldn’t figure out the situation.
She touched her neck and used her hand to hold Mo Yingxue to keep a certain distance between them.
God knows that when her young and vibrant lover’s beautiful face suddenly came closer, she almost lost control and instinctively wanted to close her eyes and kiss her.
Mo Yingxue looked so much like she was asking for a kiss.
That was close.
In her previous life, their relationship was average, but their intimate life was quite harmonious, and they kissed often. Yue Lei almost didn’t react in time.
Yue Lei’s voice became hoarse due to nervousness. “What’s wrong, classmate?”
Mo Yingxue seemed to be completely unaware that her actions were too intimate.
Her eyes curved, and her voice was sweet and refreshing like a glass of iced tea in the summer.
“The necklace you’re wearing is a little snowflake. What a coincidence, my name is Mo Yingxue.”
In Yue Lei’s plan, the two of them shouldn’t have too much interaction at this point.
But now that there was no way to escape, she had no choice but to curl her lips and reply, “Then I’ll call you Xiao Xue. I’m Yue Lei.”
Mo Yingxue nodded at her and complimented her generously. “Sister, your name is beautiful, like a flower bud slowly blooming. It’s so lovely.”
In her previous life, Yue Lei was used to being called shameless and a hooligan in bed. She was also used to being bossed around without a proper title.
Such rare praise made her heart flutter.
Yue Lei rubbed her nose, desperately trying to come up with words to praise her wife’s name.
But before she could speak, Mo Yingxue took a step back, stood up, and went to get her food.
Chinese people have a saying, “do not speak when eating or sleeping.”
In a situation where they weren’t very familiar with each other, it was even more awkward to talk while eating.
The two of them were very polite and silent during the meal. Yue Lei only dared to sneak glances at her wife from the corner of her eye.
She thought she was being very careful, but she was still discovered by Mo Yingxue.
She smiled and pushed the side dish in front of her forward. “The side dish that comes with the meal is random. I’ve barely touched this one. If you don’t mind, would you like to try it, sister? I saw you kept looking at it.”
Yue Lei didn’t know how to explain herself.
She had no choice but to accept the label of being a glutton and eat the side dish her wife gave her with a teary face.
Mo Yingxue ate a little faster, but she didn’t leave. She lazily sat there, playing on her phone.
Yue Lei couldn’t figure out what she meant and could only relax and take things as they came.
As soon as she put down her chopsticks, Mo Yingxue’s gaze fell on her.
She gently tapped her fingertips and put away her phone. “You’re finally done eating.”
This version of Mo Yingxue seemed to be very interested in her.
Yue Lei decided to be brave and go for it. “Yes. Are you waiting for me?”
She looked at her wife, trying to see something in her eyes.
However, Mo Yingxue just shrugged. “Not really. I have class in the afternoon, and I don’t want to go back to school yet.”
Yue Lei: “Then I’ll walk you back to your dorm?”
Mo Yingxue spread her hands. “I don’t live in the dorm. It’s also quite boring to go home.”
This was the first time Yue Lei had heard this.
In her previous life, they had only met during Mo Yingxue’s last semester of senior year. It was normal for students at that time to not live in school since they were busy looking for jobs or preparing for graduate school.
But she was only in her second year now and was already commuting.
Just as Yue Lei was about to say something, Mo Yingxue leaned forward and asked curiously, “Sister, are you going to work in a little bit?”
This hit a sore spot for Yue Lei, but she didn’t hide it. “No, I’m unemployed right now. I’m looking for a job.”
Mo Yingxue looked at Yue Lei with interest, as if she had seen something very rare. “Is the job market so tough right now? You’re so pretty, sister, and you’re unemployed.”
“I guess you could say my business failed,” Yue Lei said, briefly talking about her company going bankrupt.
In the end, she smiled helplessly. “I didn’t expect that after paying everyone the commissions and bonuses I had been holding on to, I would be left with nothing myself.”
Seeing the worried look in Mo Yingxue’s eyes, she stopped herself in time. “But my luck is still very good. A kind person found me a part-time job today, and I can earn some money for food and a place to stay. I believe it won’t be hard to make a comeback.”
Listening to these words, the emotions in Mo Yingxue’s eyes were unclear. Yue Lei didn’t know what she was thinking.
When she looked up again and their eyes met, Yue Lei swore she saw excitement in her wife’s eyes.
She was married to Mo Yingxue for seven years, but they didn’t have much in common.
Later, she could only see that level of emotion when they were in bed, and she had satisfied her.
“Sister, then I’ll offer you a job, too.”
Mo Yingxue suddenly grabbed Yue Lei’s right hand and gently squeezed it.
“You’re so beautiful, and you’re very pleasing to my eye. You can definitely inspire me a lot in my painting. Can you be my model? Be my muse?”
Yue Lei’s breathing hitched. She didn’t expect her wife to make a move on her.
If Mo Yingxue had been this enthusiastic in her previous life, their relationship probably would have been much better.
However, in her previous life, she was the one who spent money and put in the effort, but in the end, she couldn’t keep Mo Yingxue.
In this life, she didn’t even have money, so the outcome would probably be even more miserable.
Thinking of this, Yue Lei’s heart suddenly ached.
Her ugliest and most embarrassing side had been seen by her wife. She might as well be an awful woman.
She would scare Mo Yingxue away and make her give up the idea.
She would worry about the future later.
Yue Lei bit the soft flesh on the inside of her lip, her face showing a mercenary and greedy expression. “Okay. I’m doing a part-time job as a sketch model right now. If you want to hire me privately, I’ll charge you five hundred a day, including food and housing.”
When she said this, she only dared to look at the leftovers on the table in front of them.
She didn’t dare to look up, afraid that Mo Yingxue would see the panic in her eyes.
Yue Lei was unilaterally severing the bond between them.
Her heart felt empty, as if she had lost a huge piece of a puzzle.
About half a minute later, a cold fragrance came closer.
Mo Yingxue wrapped her arms around one of her arms, a cool smile on her face. “Okay, I agree. My mom is away all year, and I live alone. You can stay with me from now on.”
Yue Lei was still immersed in the pain of having broken up with the person she loved.
“You don’t… Huh? You agreed?”
She frowned, her rebellious eyebrows filled with confusion.
Mo Yingxue was eating away at Yue Lei’s personal space, little by little.
At this moment, not only was she holding her arm, but she was also getting bold enough to rest her chin on her shoulder. “Of course, I agree. Sister, you’re so beautiful. You’ll definitely add a lot of color to my paintings. Five hundred a day is not expensive at all.”
Seeing that Yue Lei hadn’t accepted the offer for a while, Mo Yingxue glared at her. “Did I agree too quickly, and now you’re regretting that the price you asked for was too low?”
She raised her eyebrows and pretended to be fierce. “We’ve agreed, so you’re not allowed to raise the price. Five hundred a day is fifteen thousand a month. This price is much higher than what a regular model gets, so there are no days off. As long as I need you, you have to be my model at any time. You have to put everything aside and put me first.”
Mo Yingxue’s pride and willfulness, without considering the feelings of others, was the side of her that Yue Lei was familiar with.
In her previous life, she was Boss Yue on the outside, but she was her wife’s lackey at home.
If Mo Yingxue told her to go east, she would never go west. Her fear of her wife was known to everyone.
Even when she was excited, as long as Mo Yingxue told her to stop, she would grit her teeth and let go.
Now that her wife had said this, Yue Lei naturally couldn’t say no.
Her feelings were mixed.
On one hand, she felt bad for her wife’s wallet.
In her previous life, Mo Yingxue’s mother, who was a professor with many patents, was not short on money, but she didn’t spoil her child.
Mo Yingxue’s allowance in college was only tens of thousands of yuan a month. At that time, she also liked to collect and go to auctions, but she could never afford the paintings and calligraphy she wanted.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have been won over by Yue Lei’s offensive of flowers and gifts.
If she was going to pay herself fifteen thousand a month, she would have even less money to spend as she pleased.
On the other hand, Yue Lei was also very doubtful.
Is my charm…
Really that great?
She knew she was tall, slender, and had good facial features, which was considered pretty by most people.
But if Mo Yingxue thought her face and body were worth fifteen thousand, then in her last life, she had given herself away for free.
Why would her wife always dislike her and give her the cold shoulder?
While she was dazed, Mo Yingxue took out her phone. “Sister, give me your contact info.”
After adding her as a friend, she immediately transferred fifteen thousand yuan.
Yue Lei looked up at Mo Yingxue. “Xiao Xue, aren’t you afraid that I’ll take the money and run?”
“You’re right.” Mo Yingxue opened the camera, took a few continuous photos of her, and said with a serious expression, “If you run, I’ll call the police.”
…
Mo Yingxue had class in the afternoon and didn’t get out until 4:30. The two of them agreed to go home together after class.
Yue Lei walked into a coffee shop alone with her suitcase.
Unlike in the morning, she had money in her pocket now and had regained her confidence. She was no longer hesitant.
After ordering a double maple latte, Yue Lei took out her laptop from her suitcase and plugged it in.
The computer interface at this time wasn’t very different from eight years later. At most, the software icons had a different style, but the frequently used ones were still the same.
Yue Lei plugged in her headphones and went to the live-streaming platform.
Her account was already following the streamers from her previous company. Five of them had changed their names and profile pictures back to their initial ones, writing goodbye messages like “retired from the industry” in their bios.
Yue Lei observed carefully and found that three of them were truly retiring, while the other two were redirecting their fans to a new account.
Two other streamers had only changed their names.
They said they had left the agency and become independent streamers. They were now preparing for new shows and events, setting up new fan groups, and cutting ties with the company.
Only Little Puff hadn’t changed anything. Her profile picture and username were still the same as before.
Yue Lei searched her homepage and couldn’t find any clues that she had announced her departure from the company.
“She’s probably too lazy to change it. I’ll have to remind her later,” Yue Lei thought. She didn’t like to maintain meaningless social relationships.
Since they were no longer working together, she hoped they wouldn’t have too much contact in the future.
She refreshed the page.
Suddenly, a notification popped up in the top right corner.
The streamer you follow, ‘Little Puff-Y’, is live! Come watch!
Yue Lei thought for a moment and clicked on the live-stream.
