Chapter 16 Rehearsal Who asked you to kiss me?
During the breaks in filming, Yu You took a few photos with the Q-version figures on the milk tea cups and sent them to his assistant as a reference for his next daily updates.
Assistant: [Such adorable little fish and QQ fish! Take more selfies!]
Yu You: [Okay, I will [happy]]
He also thought these selfies were cute. After thinking about it, he modestly picked one and sent it to Jiang Xunzhou, waiting for some compliments.
Jiang Xunzhou: [Yes.]
Just huh?!
Yu You read the one-word reply twice in disbelief, and found that Jiang Xunzhou really didn't intend to say anything else. He closed the chat box angrily and decided never to send a selfie to Jiang Xunzhou again.
Chocolate is not suitable for dogs.
Yu You comforted himself.
The filming schedule was tight. In the afternoon, one of the co-stars was not in good condition and had to repeat the scenes over and over again. The filming lasted from the afternoon until late at night. Yu You was so tired that he had unsteady steps when he left the crew and fell asleep in the car.
After he fell asleep, he was motionless and did not wake up even when they arrived at the destination. The driver shouted several times but failed to wake him up. Not knowing what to do, he had to call Jiang Xunzhou.
Jiang Xunzhou had just finished a multinational meeting, left the study and went downstairs.
The door of the rear car was open, with bodyguards standing on either side. The driver stood there awkwardly, at a loss. When he saw Jiang Xunzhou coming out, he quickly called out, "Boss Jiang."
Jiang Xunzhou nodded lightly and walked forward with his long legs.
The back seat of the car was spacious. The boy was curled up in the corner and sleeping soundly. The air conditioning was sufficient. He also covered himself with a fine velvet blanket. His exposed ankles were slender and wrapped in snow-white thin socks.
Jiang Xunzhou leaned over slightly, wrapped the boy in a thin blanket, and picked him up.
Yu You closed his eyes and did not wake up at all. He sensed a familiar breath in his sleep, and took the initiative to rub against Jiang Xunzhou's arms, adjusting his posture to be more comfortable.
"Thank you for your hard work tonight." Jiang Xunzhou said politely to the driver, "You don't have to come tomorrow."
The driver nodded repeatedly: "Okay, okay."
Jiang Xunzhou walked back with Yu You in his arms, his steps steady.
After entering the villa, the light changed and the lights inside were a bit bright, which made Yu You subconsciously lean towards Jiang Xunzhou's arms. It was only when he bumped into his warm and strong muscles that he felt something was wrong.
The young man raised his long eyelashes in a daze, the corners of his eyes slightly red. He looked around and asked blankly: "...I'm back?"
"You're back." Jiang Xunzhou lowered his eyes to look at him, "Are you so sleepy today?"
Yu You sighed, "There was a scene where the director wasn't satisfied with the result. We shot it over and over again, it was so tiring."
Jiang Xunzhou took a few steps and put Yu You on the sofa in the living room: "Sit down first, I'll get you some slippers."
Yu You said "oh, be good" and sat on the sofa with his knees closed.
"By the way, Auntie saw that you liked eating pineapples a few days ago, so she cut a plate for you before leaving today."
Jiang Xunzhou came back with the slippers, lowered himself, and placed them at Yu You's feet. He said, "But I told her that you are losing weight now and can't eat too much fruit during the diet. I ate that plate of pineapples."
Yu You asked anxiously, "You didn't leave any for me?"
Jiang Xunzhou's lips curled slightly and he nodded: "I didn't leave a single piece."
Yu You was annoyed: "Just eat it, why are you telling me what to do?"
Jiang Xunzhou said, "A friend reminded me today to be a little mean to you, to prevent you from losing your place in the world."
Yu You was stunned: "So you ate all the pineapples that Auntie left for me? Don't you want to be my big fan?"
"Being your financial fan means providing you with money and resources, and there's no conflict between that and being a little mean to you." Jiang Xunzhou's tone was filled with a leisurely smile. "Also, let me remind you, everything in this room belongs to me, including the pineapple."
Yu You looked shocked and couldn't believe it.
How could there be a president who is so petty that he wouldn't even give up a small piece of pineapple?
His psychological reaction was written all over his face, and it was easy to understand.
Jiang Xunzhou was so amused that he couldn't help but chuckle, and finally remembered the serious matter he wanted to talk about: "You don't need to go to the set tomorrow, right?"
Yu You nodded: "What's wrong?"
"My parents will be back from abroad tomorrow." Jiang Xunzhou said, "As part of the contract we signed—"
Yu You understood: "I understand, I understand. Tomorrow I will pretend to be your lover and accompany you to meet them."
He specifically checked the relevant information. Jiang Xunzhou's parents were childhood sweethearts and had a very deep relationship. They had two sons. Some time ago, they were in a car accident and almost died on the spot. They went to a sanatorium abroad and there has been no news about them recently.
"Tomorrow, not only will my parents be here, but my brother will be too," Jiang Xunzhou said. "In order to convince them that we're real, there will be some intimate behavior. Can you accept that?"
Yu You asked humbly, "For example?"
Jiang Xunzhou coughed, a subtle awkwardness emerging from his expression. "For example... when we sit together, we should sit very close to each other, preferably holding hands. My parents will ask how we got together. During the conversation, we might kiss—but not too much, just on the cheek."
Yu You thought it was something else, blinked blankly, and asked, "We've both slept together before, are you still afraid of this?"
His words were so blunt that Jiang Xunzhou almost lost control of his expression, a blush spreading across the tips of his ears. "How are they the same? Back then, we were both drugged, and it was a special, involuntary situation. This time, we're acting while both sober."
Yu You scratched his cheek, a little confused.
During the passionate period, he was indeed not very conscious, but after the first night, the effect of Jiang Xunzhou's medicine wore off. Wasn't he quite devoted afterwards?
Although there was also the factor of being entangled by him and unable to leave...
Yu You knew very well that he couldn't contradict his boss, so he didn't argue with Jiang Xunzhou and just said obediently, "Okay, honey, I got it."
Jiang Xunzhou snorted, "That's good to know. Have a good rest tonight and remember to be prepared tomorrow. Do whatever it takes to prove our relationship."
Yu You felt that he possessed perfect acting skills and said confidently, "Don't worry, honey. Leave it to me, there will be absolutely no problem!"
Jiang Xunzhou's expression relaxed a little and he nodded lightly.
After talking about tomorrow's matters, Yu You returned to the guest bedroom. After washing up, he checked whether the door was locked and sent a message to Jiang Xunzhou.
[Don't worry, I'll lock the door tonight! I definitely won't sleepwalk to your side!]
He put down his phone, closed his eyes and fell asleep. The next morning, he opened his eyes and found that he had woken up in the guest bedroom. He breathed a sigh of relief.
Even if this body has a habit of sleepwalking, it can still be controlled if the door is locked.
Yu You gained confidence and packed up and went downstairs.
Jiang Xunzhou was already drinking coffee and waiting at the dining table.
Because this time he was going to a family dinner, the man dressed more casually than usual. His light brown V-neck shirt wrapped around his broad chest, with a few buttons casually undone and his cuffs rolled up to his elbows, revealing the powerful lines of his forearms.
Hearing the noise, Jiang Xunzhou raised his eyes and saw Yu You coming down the stairs.
The boy has a thin and tall figure, and is always dressed neatly, in a white shirt and brown trousers. His simple outfit exudes a clean atmosphere.
Those clear and beautiful eyes were full of light, and when they looked over, they reminded people of a handful of first snow on the top of the snow-capped mountain.
Jiang Xunzhou was in a trance for a moment, then came to his senses and said, "Come here."
Yu You hurried over in two steps, adhering to the professional spirit of a worker, and asked: "What's the matter? Is this outfit not suitable? If it is not suitable, I will go back and change it now."
"No need to change, it fits perfectly." Jiang Xunzhou said, "Give me your hand."
Yu You stretched out his hand.
Jiang Xunzhou held the boy's wrist and fastened a silver bracelet on it.
The silver bracelet is long and thin, decorated with irises inlaid with diamonds. It sways on the slender white wrist, reflecting the dazzling light.
Yu You exclaimed in surprise, then noticed that Jiang Xunzhou didn't wear a watch today. He only wore a silver bracelet with irises, the same style as the one on his wrist. He asked, "Is this our couple's bracelet?"
Jiang Xunzhou hummed, and then said, "Consider it as my reward for asking you to accompany me back this time."
Yu You's eyes sparkled: "Does this mean you're giving this bracelet to me?"
Jiang Xunzhou nodded.
Yu You already liked this iris bracelet. With her eyes curved in a smile, she leaned over and kissed Jiang Xunzhou on the side of his face: "Thank you, husband!"
Jiang Xunzhou was caught off guard and was kissed. His pupils dilated slightly and he stared blankly at Yu You in front of him.
The place that was kissed was moist, as if a trace of softness still remained, burning like a brand.
The scorching heat even has a tendency to spread outwards.
Yu You tilted her head slightly, looking innocent: "Husband?"
Jiang Xunzhou's Adam's apple rolled heavily, and his tone was a little annoyed: "Who asked you to kiss me?"
"Didn't you say there might be a cheek kiss today? I'm just practicing in advance."
Yu You seriously suggested: "Husband, your reaction is too dull. It makes us look fake. We don't look like a couple in love who often kiss each other."
Jiang Xunzhou gritted his teeth and spoke with difficulty: "Then...don't kiss me, I'll kiss you."
"That's fine too. Leave the difficult parts to me." Yu You thought for a moment, "We have time now, so we can rehearse."
He sat directly on Jiang Xunzhou's lap, wrapped his arms around his neck, tilted his face up, and said coquettishly, "Hubby, kiss me."
The boy's voice was soft and full of admiration. His rosy lips opened and closed, and the wet red tip of his tongue hidden inside flashed by.
The warm body leaned against his arms, emitting a light and pleasant scent of purple iris, which stirred his heart, made the temples on his forehead beat gently, and all the hot blood in his body rushed straight down.
Jiang Xunzhou closed his eyes, his ears reddened, and his voice was inexplicably hoarse: "Go down."
Yu You was puzzled: "Not kissing anymore?"
Jiang Xunzhou couldn't bear it any longer. The veins on his neck bulged slightly. He picked up Yu You and strode away.
