You Are the Star I Cannot Touch - Chapter 39

Chapter 39: Wants To Hit Someone

“Mmm,” Gong Yutong looked at the data.

Mu Yan waited for a while but there was no follow-up. “You… just an ‘Mmm’?”

Gong Yutong looked at Mu Yan this time. “What did you just say? Why don’t you say it again?”

Mu Yan “…………” Is she that serious about work? Completely oblivious to everything around her. Angrily, Mu Yan pinched Gong Yutong’s face. “Can’t you see I’m frantic?”

“Be good, don’t fuss.”

Mu Yan “……… You… What did you just say? Sweetheart, say it again, I want to hear it.” She looked at her, her eyes full of expectation.

Gu Xizhi covered her face, unable to watch.

“What?” Gong Yutong looked at her in confusion. “What’s wrong? Are you being abnormal again?”

Mu Yan “………”

“Xizhi, take a look, I’ll go back with you.” Gong Yutong handed her the laptop.

Gu Xizhi took it and looked. Both of them were now immersed in work.

Qu Shijin felt a little lost and bored.

Mu Yan looked gloomy, like a little wife who had been wronged.

“Sister Mu Yan,” Qu Shijin looked at Mu Yan, “Can you accompany me to the restroom?” She couldn’t rely on Gu Xizhi.

“Mmm.” Mu Yan stood up, took one step, then came back and fiercely pinched Gong Yutong’s face before leaving.

Gong Yutong “…………”

Gu Xizhi couldn’t help it and burst out laughing. “This Mu Yan is quite adorable.”

“Stop laughing, it’s serious business.” She was speechless.

“Okay,” Gu Xizhi suddenly remembered something. “Mu Yan took my little girl away.”

“Afraid she’ll get lost? Go with them.”

“She’s getting… disobedient.” Gu Xizhi was already planning how to bully her tonight. Leaving without even telling her—her guts have grown big. She continued to look at the laptop.

Gong Yutong looked at the data, somewhat lost in thought. How could she not have heard Mu Yan’s words just now? How should she answer? She couldn’t answer, so she could only remain silent. Now was not the time. Without the absolute ability to protect her, she couldn’t afford to gamble.

……………

Tang Xiaowan bought two bottles of water. The sun had come out now, so she opened her umbrella and pulled Chi Yue into her embrace.

“The sun is out. You’re so fair, don’t get a tan.” She even thoughtfully unscrewed the bottle cap and handed it to her.

Chi Yue “………” She could even beat Tang Xiaowan in a fight, so how could she not unscrew a bottle cap?

“Mud dolls,” Tang Xiaowan pulled Chi Yue over. “Aunty.”

“Hey,” Being called so affectionately by Tang Xiaowan, the woman’s mouth curved up with joy, especially since the person was also good-looking.

“Aunty, your hands are so skillful. Could you make a few for me?”

“Okay, okay, what kind do you want?”

“Me, and her,” she pointed at Chi Yue, “and two others. I’ll show you the pictures.”

“Sure.” The woman started by sculpting Chi Yue, then baked it dry, and then sculpted Tang Xiaowan. When she saw Gong Yutong’s photo, she praised it repeatedly.

“So beautiful! Is this a real person?”

“My friend, isn’t she pretty?” Tang Xiaowan said with a proud look. “She’s practically a goddess.”

“She’s beautiful,” the woman said, looking at the photo. “She’s too beautiful. I’m afraid I’ll desecrate her beauty and not sculpt her well.”

“It’s okay, Aunty, I believe in you.”

“Alright.” The woman finished sculpting and handed her the four dolls. “They won’t break.”

“Thank you. How much?”

“Twenty each, eighty.”

Tang Xiaowan paid the money, gave her own doll to Chi Yue, and kept Chi Yue’s.

Chi Yue “………” Why keep hers?

Tang Xiaowan saw the cotton candy, unceremoniously bought one, and handed it to Chi Yue, while she held the umbrella and drank water.

Chi Yue “………… Tang Xiaowan, I’m not a three-year-old.”

“Don’t fuss, eat your cotton candy properly.” At this rate, when would they reach the mountaintop? They needed to take a shortcut.

Chi Yue felt utterly speechless.

“Let’s go.” Tang Xiaowan pulled Chi Yue to take a shortcut. It was a difficult path to walk, and Chi Yue naturally struggled, as fighting was her forte, but walking on this kind of mountain path was not.

“I’ll hold your hand. Follow me, slowly.” Tang Xiaowan held her hand. “Be careful.”

“Mmm.”

It took the two of them two hours to climb to the mountaintop. Fortunately, both were trained, so they weren’t excessively tired.

“It’s cool over there.” Tang Xiaowan pulled Chi Yue to a shady spot. “You’re sweating a lot.” She took out a tissue to wipe her. “Don’t move.”

Chi Yue had no choice but to let her wipe her. They were quite close, and she… was a few centimeters taller than Tang Xiaowan, so she got a partial view of the ‘scenery’ inside her clothes.

Tang Xiaowan focused on wiping her sweat, until she reached her lips. She looked at her lips, then leaned in a little and kissed her.

Chi Yue “………” Is she here to take advantage of me?

Tang Xiaowan let go of her before Chi Yue could make a move. “I saw your lips were too dry, so I moisturized them for you.”

Chi Yue “………” What a shameless excuse.

Tang Xiaowan continued to wipe her, down to her neck. Looking at her tender neck, she kissed it again. “There was a mosquito.”

Chi Yue “………” Is she sick? A mosquito? If there was a mosquito, she should eat it. Isn’t that perverse? If she wants to take advantage, she should just say so.

Tang Xiaowan wiped down to her chest. She wished those droplets of water were smaller so she could see properly. Thinking of this, a fire in her lower abdomen made her uncomfortable. “Can I… touch it?”

Chi Yue “Get lost.”

“Stingy. Your collarbone is so pretty, can’t I touch it once?”

Chi Yue’s face turned even redder. She thought wrong, she wasn’t talking about… the collarbone.

“Sister Yue’er, what were you just thinking about? Was it here?” Tang Xiaowan pinched her slightly.

Chi Yue kicked out, but Tang Xiaowan dodged.

“Sister Yue has an unhealthy mind, oh.”

Chi Yue “………”

Tang Xiaowan leaned close to her again. “Let me kiss you.”

Just as Chi Yue was about to speak, Tang Xiaowan clasped the back of her head, took advantage of the opening, and kissed her. Then she let her go and stroked her lips, looking at her.

“Let’s go. We have to wait for them. We can’t let Yutong’s brother have any trouble, or Yutong will beat me to death.” Tang Xiaowan suddenly smirked. “Can you walk? Do you need me to carry you?”

“No.” Chi Yue was so angry she wanted to hit someone. Awkwardly, she let Tang Xiaowan pull her along.

“Cute.” Tang Xiaowan was in a better mood. This one was softer than anyone she had ever touched, sweet and delicious.

Chi Yue really wanted to hit someone, but if she injured Tang Xiaowan, she’d have to deal with her afterward. It wasn’t worth it either way. She decided to keep a mental note of it and settle the score when they got back.

They found a spot to wait for the others to climb up. Tang Xiaowan handed her the water.

Chi Yue looked at it, thinking Tang Xiaowan was afraid she couldn’t unscrew the cap. She took it and kicked Tang Xiaowan without hesitation.

“Why are you kicking me?” Tang Xiaowan rubbed her butt in confusion.

“Does it hurt?”

“Isn’t that obvious?”

“So, I can unscrew the cap.”

Tang Xiaowan was stunned for a few seconds. “Chi Yue, someone is caring for you, don’t you understand? Don’t you know how to accept it?”

“I only accept Xiao Yan’s care.”

“You… Is Mu Yan that important to you?” She felt a little sour asking that question. Mu Yan was inherently very important to Chi Yue, irreplaceable. Thinking of this, her heart felt sour. Irreplaceable, irreplaceable, Chi Yue certainly knew how to use words.

“Yes, she is more important than my life.”

“Will you ever fall in love? Will you ever marry? Is she more important than the person you love?”

“Mmm, I won’t fall in love, and I won’t marry. I’ll just stay with Xiao Yan and protect her.”

“What?”

Won’t fall in love, won’t marry, will stay with Mu Yan. Could it be that she…

“You don’t like Mu Yan, do you?”

“No, she is my only friend and my only family.”

“Oh, in other words, you only care about Mu Yan, and your heart only has room for her, right?”

“Mmm.”

Tang Xiaowan didn’t know why she was angry. And Chi Yue just said “Mmm.” It was maddening! She immediately ignored Chi Yue, and Chi Yue naturally didn’t pay any attention to her either.
