After Accidentally Marking My Stepsister's White Moonlight (GL, ABO) - Chapter 27

When Ye Wenjin woke up the next day, she wasn’t as flustered as before. Her expression was much more serene.

She clearly remembered what had happened the night before. Though recalling it still made her a little shy, it wasn’t the first time anymore—acting all panicked now would be unreasonable.

Ye Wenjin was trying hard to adjust to her relationship with Jian Mo. After all, they were legally married wives.

And she had noticed that Sister seemed to enjoy intimacy quite a bit. Last night, because Sister had been so alluring, they had stayed up very late.

But perhaps subconsciously aware that she had things to do today, Ye Wenjin still woke up at her usual time.

As she came to, she instinctively looked down at Jian Mo, who was nestled in her arms, and saw that she was still peacefully asleep with no signs of waking.

Thinking about how they had stayed up so late the night before, Ye Wenjin’s face flushed slightly, and her heart swelled with warmth.

She might have tired Sister out.

With that thought, she leaned in a little closer and gently pressed a kiss to Jian Mo’s forehead.

Then she quickly pulled back, nervous, but seeing that Jian Mo was still sound asleep, she relaxed slightly. Unconsciously drawn to her sleeping face, Ye Wenjin’s expression turned dazed.

From this close, she could clearly see Sister’s long, straight eyelashes, like delicate little fans, even the shadows they cast were beautiful.

Every part of her—her nose, her lips—seemed flawless.

How could someone be this beautiful?

Ye Wenjin stared blankly, unable to tear her eyes away.

Only when she blinked again did she belatedly realize that the woman before her had opened her eyes at some point and was now gazing at her with amusement.

Before Ye Wenjin could even process it, she blinked again in confusion, then suddenly realized Jian Mo was awake. She jerked back, scrambling to sit up.

“Sister, you… you’re awake?”

Jian Mo let out a lazy hum, the corners of her lips curling. “Mhm. For some reason, I felt an intense gaze in my dream—so intense I couldn’t sleep through it.”

Ye Wenjin’s eyes darted away, embarrassed. “Sorry, I woke you up.”

Jian Mo chuckled. “Good morning, Xiao Jin.”

Seeing that she wasn’t going to tease her further, Ye Wenjin obediently replied, “Good morning, Sister.”

After exchanging greetings, the two prepared to get up.

Truthfully, it was still early, but the mere thought of lying awake together in bed felt like the greatest challenge to Ye Wenjin.

When they were asleep, neither was conscious, but being awake like this was far too stimulating.

Still, since they had gone to bed late last night, would Sister be well-rested getting up so early?

Ye Wenjin was a little worried.

But just as she was about to ask, Jian Mo sat up, and the blanket slid off her body in an instant, revealing her flawless figure. From Ye Wenjin’s angle, every curve was on full display.

Ye Wenjin averted her gaze as if scalded, patting her chest to calm her racing heart.

What she didn’t notice was that Jian Mo had turned to look at her, eyebrows slightly raised.

After a while, assuming Jian Mo had dressed, Ye Wenjin cautiously turned back—only to find Jian Mo still watching her… and still undressed!

Ye Wenjin: “!”

Without another thought, she shot up, grabbed a robe, and hastily draped it over Jian Mo.

“Sister, be careful not to catch a cold. Although it’s warmed up quite a bit, mornings are still chilly. Getting sick would be really uncomfortable.”

Jian Mo gave her a deep look.

She was genuinely curious about Ye Wenjin’s thought process—how could someone be so innocent at times yet so straightforward at others?

Like right now, Ye Wenjin’s face showed no trace of embarrassment, only concern, her expression and gaze utterly sincere.

It meant she truly believed what she was saying.

Jian Mo chuckled softly, leisurely adjusting her robe.

“Xiao Jin, has anyone ever told you you’re quite interesting?”

Ye Wenjin paused, seriously pondering the question before shaking her head. “No, I don’t think so. Most people say I’m too earnest, that I’m a bit dull.”

Truth be told, Ye Wenjin didn’t deny it—she was indeed a rather uninteresting person. But she felt this was her most comfortable state, so it didn’t particularly bother her.

However, being called interesting was a first, especially coming from Jian Mo.

Ye Wenjin’s eyes brightened slightly as she looked at Jian Mo.

Seeing her sparkling gaze, Jian Mo couldn’t resist reaching out to pat her head.

Sometimes, Ye Wenjin’s expressions reminded her of a puppy—so endearing it made one want to pet and tease her.

And Ye Wenjin was surprisingly cooperative, making Jian Mo’s head-patting motions grow increasingly natural.

With their morning emotional exchange concluded, the two finally got out of bed.

It was Saturday, and according to last night’s plan, they were heading to a neighboring city to watch a performance.

During breakfast, Butler Wu brought over two performance tickets, which seemed to have just arrived.

At the sight of the tickets, Ye Wenjin grew visibly excited, though she suddenly remembered something.

“Sister, do you have work to attend to at your company? If you’re busy, I can go alone.”

Jian Mo glanced at her and reminded her patiently, “Xiao Jin, it’s Saturday.”

Ye Wenjin nodded blankly. “Yes.”

Jian Mo smiled. “Since it’s a rest day, resting naturally takes priority.”

Ye Wenjin was momentarily stunned. She had assumed someone like Jian Mo, as a boss, would be incredibly busy—coming home late even on weekdays, with endless tasks to handle and meetings to attend, leaving little time even on weekends.

After all, that was how Yin Yu was. In her memory, Yin Yu always seemed swamped, returning home late at night or sometimes not at all, citing social obligations. Rarely did she spend an entire day at home.

Ye Shuyao often told her how hard Yin Yu worked and how tiring it was to manage the household, so she should be obedient and avoid troubling others over minor issues, learning to handle things herself.

As a result, she had instinctively assumed Jian Mo would be just as busy.

“Oh, I see. I thought bosses worked even on rest days.”

It seemed she had taken it for granted. Ye Wenjin quietly sipped her porridge.

Jian Mo let out a soft laugh. “Bosses are human too, so they naturally have rest days. Though it’s true we’re busy, the company won’t collapse if I’m away for a day. If anything urgent comes up, my assistant will let me know. Xiao Jin, you should understand—delegating appropriately makes things easier for both yourself and your employees.”

Ye Wenjin blinked, surprised that Sister would share this with her. But when she tried to imagine it, it did seem like a much more relaxed approach.

If you encounter a boss who nitpicks at everything, scrutinizes every detail, and constantly monitors your work, you’d probably end up with a nervous breakdown just from going to work.

So perhaps meeting a boss like Jian Mo is a stroke of luck for employees?

At least it’s much better for your mental health.

Ye Wenjin couldn’t help but think this way.

After breakfast, Ye Wenjin hesitated for a moment before glancing at Jian Mo and saying, “Sister, I’d like to go upstairs and change my clothes. Is that okay?”

Jian Mo nodded. “Mm, go ahead.”

With that, Ye Wenjin hurried upstairs with light steps, not only changing her outfit but also applying light makeup.

Just as she was about to head back down, she paused, turned around, and grabbed a notebook and pen—just in case there was a chance to ask for an autograph.

By the time she finished preparing and went downstairs, Jian Mo was already waiting for her.

Ye Wenjin felt a pang of nervousness and quickly ran over. “Have you been waiting long, Sister?”

Jian Mo turned her head and immediately noticed the effort Ye Wenjin had put into her appearance. Her gaze darkened slightly, but her expression remained unchanged as she replied softly, “No.”

Ye Wenjin didn’t catch the shift in her eyes, focusing only on her expression. Seeing no reaction, she felt a faint disappointment.

“Then… let’s go.”

The performance was scheduled for the afternoon. The neighboring city wasn’t far—just an hour’s drive—so they had plenty of time to explore before the show.

That was what Ye Wenjin had originally thought.

It suddenly occurred to her that going to a performance together like this was practically a date!

And not just any date—it was her first date with Sister.

Given that, she couldn’t just treat it casually. Dressing up carefully was absolutely necessary.

But Jian Mo didn’t seem particularly moved by her efforts.

Ye Wenjin felt a little deflated. Despite her excitement for the dance performance, her enthusiasm waned slightly in that moment.

“Xiao Jin.”

Ye Wenjin instinctively looked up. “What is it, Sister?”

Jian Mo’s gaze was somewhat shadowed, and for a moment, she didn’t speak.

Ye Wenjin studied her and suddenly grew nervous, sensing that Jian Mo’s mood seemed off.

“Sister? Did I upset you?”

Jian Mo shook her head before speaking slowly. “Xiao Jin really likes Teacher Mei Yan. You’ve dressed up beautifully today.”

Ye Wenjin froze for a second. When she grasped the implication behind those words, her first reaction was disbelief, followed by excitement.

She tried to contain herself and carefully explained, “I do love Teacher Mei Yan’s performances, but the reason I dressed up was… well, this is our first date. I couldn’t just go out looking sloppy—that would be too careless.”

As Ye Wenjin spoke, Jian Mo’s gaze gradually softened. By the time the explanation was over, she had returned to her usual demeanor.

Still, she asked for confirmation, “So, Xiao Jin dressed up for me?”

Hearing this, Ye Wenjin felt a little embarrassed but nodded. “Mm! I wanted to match you better.”

Most of her clothes were casual and carried a strong student vibe.

Ye Wenjin had always believed that as long as clothes were wearable, they were fine. But if she was going out with Jian Mo, she couldn’t just wear those things.

Otherwise…

People might really mistake them for sisters.

Ye Wenjin didn’t want that, so she deliberately changed into a different outfit. Even so, the gap between them wasn’t something that could be easily bridged by clothes alone.

Ye Wenjin had agonized for a long time before finally settling on this outfit. Even as she came downstairs, her heart was still fluttering with nervousness, afraid that Jian Mo might not find it appealing.

But Jian Mo’s focus wasn’t on whether her clothes looked bad—instead, she noticed that Ye Wenjin had dressed up carefully and assumed it was for the sake of watching the performance.

Though the thought felt a little narcissistic, Ye Wenjin couldn’t help but wonder—

Was Sister jealous just now?

The moment this idea surfaced, Ye Wenjin couldn’t suppress the happiness that bubbled up inside her.

Jian Mo chuckled softly, her voice tender. “It looks lovely. So Xiao Jin put in so much effort.”

Hearing this, Ye Wenjin’s eyes sparkled—she had been praised by Sister.

The earlier sense of disappointment vanished in an instant, and only then did Ye Wenjin belatedly feel a little embarrassed about her own words.

Jian Mo’s eyes were also filled with amusement, clearly in a very good mood.

The two set off soon after, arriving in the neighboring city while it was still early.

Ye Wenjin had initially wanted to suggest going around to explore, but before she could even speak, Jian Mo had already made arrangements.

Yet their first stop was a shopping mall.

Just as Ye Wenjin was puzzling over why they had come here, Jian Mo casually walked into a women’s clothing store, scanned the racks, and then picked out a few pieces to hold up against her.

Ye Wenjin startled. “Sister?”

Jian Mo motioned for her to stay still, her gaze shifting between Ye Wenjin and the clothes in her hands, assessing whether they suited her.

Obediently, Ye Wenjin fell silent, watching with wide eyes as Jian Mo continued comparing outfit after outfit against her.

After evaluating several sets, Jian Mo turned to the sales assistant trailing beside them and said, “For all the ones I just looked at, get one in her size.”

Struck by this sudden stroke of luck, the sales assistant immediately flashed a professional smile and replied brightly, “Of course, miss.”

Ye Wenjin was dumbfounded, momentarily stunned by Jian Mo’s extravagant shopping style.

It wasn’t until Jian Mo turned to browse other items and held them up against her that Ye Wenjin finally snapped out of her daze and hurriedly said, “Sister, there’s no need—this is too much. I won’t be able to wear all of it.”

Jian Mo patted her hand reassuringly. “It’s fine. They’re different styles—you can rotate them.”

And so, Ye Wenjin watched as she resumed her shopping spree—clothes, shoes, bags, accessories…

By the end, Ye Wenjin felt dizzy staring at the mountain of neatly packaged shopping bags.

She had never seen such an aggressive shopping approach before—it was downright jaw-dropping.

“Hmm, this set looks nice. Xiao Jin, go try it on.”

Bewildered, Ye Wenjin took the clothes and numbly changed into them.

Jian Mo examined her carefully before nodding in approval. “Yes, wear this one.”

Remembering what happened last time, Ye Wenjin obediently packed the clothes she had arrived in into one of the shopping bags.

Jian Mo seemed very pleased.

So Ye Wenjin turned to look at their reflections in the mirror.

Jian Mo had excellent taste—the clothes she picked suited Ye Wenjin’s temperament perfectly, yet they were completely different from what she usually wore. Now, standing together, the two of them no longer looked like sisters at all.

Instead, they resembled a genuine young couple—perfectly matched and harmonious.

All those gaps she had once perceived were slowly being filled by Jian Mo, one by one.
