The Film Empress White Moonlight Wants To Be A Salted Fish - Chapter 42

Lu Yiran went to the convenience store near the apartment complex to buy some food. When she returned, the elevator doors opened, and she saw Wen Shiyan who was about to open her door.

“Wen Shiyan…”

Hearing Lu Yiran’s voice, Wen Shiyan stopped opening the door and looked toward Lu Yiran.

Lu Yiran stepped out of the elevator, holding her shopping bag, and said to Wen Shiyan, “Wen Shiyan, aren’t you living at home?” As she spoke, she opened the door to her own apartment.

Wen Shiyan took out the gift she had brought for Lu Yiran and gave it to her. “I prefer to live alone.” Surprised to see that Wen Shiyan had even brought her a gift, Lu Yiran took it and asked, “Can I open it now?”

Wen Shiyan nodded. Lu Yiran hung the things in her hand on the doorknob and unwrapped the gift. Seeing what the gift was, she thanked Wen Shiyan, then asked, confused, “Wen Shiyan, how did you know I wanted this fountain pen?”

“The sales clerk recommended it,” Wen Shiyan said, then opened her door. “See you later, I’ll go tidy up my place first.”

In the evening, Lu Yiran, after taking a shower, had planned to just eat something simple. The doorbell rang, and Lu Yiran put down her bread and ran to the door. “Coming.” Seeing it was Wen Shiyan, Lu Yiran opened the door.

Seeing Lu Yiran’s unused kitchen and the bread on the table, Wen Shiyan put the bread in the refrigerator and said to Lu Yiran, “Come eat at my place.”

Hearing Wen Shiyan’s suggestion, Lu Yiran naturally agreed. Without waiting for Wen Shiyan to say anything more, Lu Yiran went to Wen Shiyan’s door and waited obediently for her to open it.

Looking at Lu Yiran, Wen Shiyan smiled unconsciously. Seeing Wen Shiyan smiling at her again, Lu Yiran entered the room and said to her, “Wen Shiyan, you’ve become much more prone to smiling recently.”

“Have I?” Wen Shiyan touched the corner of her mouth. Lu Yiran nodded, pulled Wen Shiyan to the mirror, and said to her, “Look!”

Looking at herself in the mirror, and seeing that she was indeed as Lu Yiran described, Wen Shiyan asked Lu Yiran, “What was I like before?”

Lu Yiran lowered her head and thought for a moment, then said to Wen Shiyan, “You used to look very cold, and you were always expressionless when you saw me.”

Looking at her current expression, Wen Shiyan asked Lu Yiran, “Really?”

The System interjected, [Of course, it’s true.]

Hearing the System’s voice, Wen Shiyan clenched her fists and managed a “friendly” smile at the System. “Please don’t come out when I’m alone with Yiran, okay?”

[Okay!]

Coming out of her room, Wen Shiyan said to Lu Yiran, “The food is ready, come and eat.”

While eating, Lu Yiran said to Wen Shiyan somewhat sheepishly, “Wen Shiyan, if you have time, could you teach me a few dishes?” Fearing she might be bothering Wen Shiyan, Lu Yiran quickly added, “Just teach me a few simple ones, and if you don’t have time, it’s fine…”

“Not a problem, I have time. But why do you want to learn to cook? Are you going to live here alone for a long time?” Wen Shiyan put down her chopsticks and asked Lu Yiran.

“Yes, I’m going to my mom’s company tomorrow, and this apartment is closer to the company,” Lu Yiran said. Wen Shiyan then told her, “Perfect. I’ll be staying here for a while, so you can come to my place for dinner after this.”

Lu Yiran hadn’t expected Wen Shiyan to say that. “Ah? Then you’ll have to cook for two people. Is it really okay for me to trouble you like this?”

“It’s no trouble at all. But if you feel like it’s a bother, could you buy some groceries on your way home tomorrow evening? I’ll send you a list of what to buy later,” Wen Shiyan said. Lu Yiran nodded.

“I heard you like red wine, so I brought a bottle from home. Wait a moment, I’ll go get it for you.” Lu Yiran said and left. When she returned, Lu Yiran was holding a bottle of wine and two glasses.

Seeing the two glasses, Wen Shiyan was alert and asked, “Are you going to drink too?”

Lu Yiran poured the wine and said matter-of-factly, “Of course. This is wine my mom got from somewhere; it must be good stuff. How can I miss out?” Lu Yiran said, then took a small sip first.

So difficult to drink! Lu Yiran looked at the wine in the glass in disbelief. She poured a glass for Wen Shiyan as well. “Here, drink.”

Seeing Wen Shiyan take a sip and nod approvingly, Lu Yiran, believing in not wasting anything, also started drinking.

“Lu Yiran? Yiran?” Wen Shiyan called out to Lu Yiran, but Lu Yiran seemed lost in thought. “Is Yiran drunk?” Wen Shiyan asked Lu Yiran, but Lu Yiran still didn’t respond.

Seeing Lu Yiran drunk, the System said to Wen Shiyan, [Uh, I’ll be going now. Good luck!] With that, the System vanished.

“Wen Shiyan…” Lu Yiran, with a drunken look, draped her hand over Wen Shiyan.

Wen Shiyan held Lu Yiran, afraid she would fall, and said to her, “Is Yiran drunk? Let’s go to sleep then.”

Lu Yiran suddenly took Wen Shiyan’s hand and gently nibbled on her knuckles.

The warm wetness froze Wen Shiyan in place.

With the moisture dampening her knuckles, Lu Yiran looked at Wen Shiyan with watery eyes. The tingling sensation on her fingertip spread throughout her body, and Wen Shiyan began to feel feverish.

“Yi-Yiran, how about I take you to sleep?” Wen Shiyan’s voice was hoarse as she looked at Lu Yiran, her eyes filled with suppressed desire.

“No!” Lu Yiran said, hugging Wen Shiyan and rubbing her head against Wen Shiyan like a kitten.

“Yiran, calm down for a bit…” Wen Shiyan said, wanting to pull away from Lu Yiran who was rubbing against her. She was really about to lose control…

Lu Yiran suddenly bit her shoulder. Wen Shiyan blushed and covered the spot Lu Yiran had bitten. Her clothes were disheveled from Lu Yiran rubbing against her, and the Lu Yiran on top of her was still restlessly licking the spot she had just bitten.

Something inside her was touched. Wen Shiyan pushed Lu Yiran down onto the sofa and covered her with her body. Lu Yiran’s hot breath sprayed on Wen Shiyan’s ear.

“Wen Shiyan, how about we play a game?” Lu Yiran’s finger traced the back of Wen Shiyan’s neck, gently sliding down the pale skin.

After Lu Yiran said this, a light kiss landed on Wen Shiyan’s lips. The aroma of wine permeated their mouths, and Wen Shiyan’s breathing became heavy. She obediently closed her eyes.

She knew what Lu Yiran was like when she was drunk, but she was shamefully looking forward to Lu Yiran doing something to her…

Lu Yiran reached out and wrapped her arms around Wen Shiyan’s neck, their lips pressing together, and then deepened the kiss.

Their breaths intertwined, and the air carried an inexplicable dampness. Sometime, Lu Yiran had unbuttoned the front of her clothes. Wen Shiyan was jolted as if waking up, pushing Lu Yiran away and breathing heavily, clutching her clothes.

Looking at the flushed Wen Shiyan straddling her, Lu Yiran licked her wet lips with her tongue.

Before Wen Shiyan could tidy her clothes, Lu Yiran grabbed her wrist and pulled her into the bedroom.

Heavily pushed onto the bed, Wen Shiyan tried to calm her frantic breathing and said to Lu Yiran, “That’s enough, Lu Yiran!”

Seeing the ambiguous moisture still on Wen Shiyan’s lips, Lu Yiran smiled and leaned in to wipe it away for her.

“Wen Shiyan, I’m going to sleep now. You have to sleep with me too.” Lu Yiran said, then lay down next to Wen Shiyan and hugged her tightly. Seeing Lu Yiran suddenly become obedient, Wen Shiyan breathed a sigh of relief.

She could have struggled free from Lu Yiran just now, but she didn’t want to… so quickly. Wen Shiyan looked at the already sleeping Lu Yiran and kissed her on the forehead. Lu Yiran definitely wouldn’t remember what happened tonight, so she didn’t have to worry about anything…

Early in the morning, Lu Yiran was awakened by the alarm.

“Oh no! I’m going to be late!” Lu Yiran said, grabbing the clothes beside her. Suddenly, she realized she wasn’t at home, and the alarm clock only showed six o’clock.

“Phew…” Fortunately, it was still early. Lu Yiran looked around with a headache. She seemed to have eaten dinner at Wen Shiyan’s place last night, and then she seemed to have fallen asleep… But she actually slept at Wen Shiyan’s place, and in Wen Shiyan’s room!

Lu Yiran quickly got up, opened the door, and saw Wen Shiyan outside, fully dressed.

“Good… good morning. I’m really sorry about last night…” Lu Yiran said, tidying her messy hair. Hearing Lu Yiran’s words, Wen Shiyan shook her head nonchalantly. “It’s fine. You fell asleep after you got drunk last night.”

“I see. Well, I’ll be going now!” Remembering that she hadn’t washed up or changed, Lu Yiran hurried to leave after saying that.

Watching Lu Yiran leave, Wen Shiyan behind her touched her own lips as if savoring the memory.

After arriving at the company, Lu Yiran called Lu Chiqiu: “Mom, I’ve arrived at the company.” Seeing the secretary sister who came to meet her, Lu Yiran smiled and greeted her.

When Lu Yiran entered the company, everyone she passed kept looking at her. Some even rushed up to Lu Yiran.

Many employees didn’t know that Lu Yiran was the daughter of Pei Ruochu and Lu Chiqiu. An employee stepped forward and asked, “Lu Yiran, why did you come to our company?”

Seeing someone step forward, more people also came up and started asking Lu Yiran questions.

“Lu Yiran, I heard you are dating Wen Shiyan, is that true?”

“No, no, I heard she was dating Xie Shuyao.”

“I heard it was Wen Shiyan and Xie Shuyao…”

Looking at everyone asking questions all at once, Lu Yiran looked troubled.

To get away from these employees, Lu Yiran said to them, “Uh… would you believe me if I said all three of us are together?”

Sure enough, upon hearing Lu Yiran’s words, the employees didn’t believe her at all.

“Haha, Yiran, you’re so funny.”

Seeing Lu Yiran in a difficult position, the secretary sister helped her out, “Alright, this is our bosses’ daughter, please stop disturbing her.” After the secretary sister spoke, the employees around Lu Yiran instantly quieted down.

Realizing they had asked too many questions, they all said, “Sorry, sorry, Miss Lu, we were just being rude.”

Finally escaping the crowd, Lu Yiran breathed a sigh of relief in the elevator.

“Miss Lu, do people still not know you are the bosses’ daughter?” The secretary sister asked. Lu Yiran shook her head and said, “But now they all know.”

When she went upstairs and saw Lu Chiqiu, Lu Yiran stuck to Lu Chiqiu as if she hadn’t seen her for years, sitting right beside her.

Although she didn’t know what was going on with Lu Yiran, Lu Chiqiu noticed that Lu Yiran had become cuter and more obedient since participating in the variety show.
