Why Suffer for This Distress (GL) - Chapter 33
After surveying the area for a week, Su Xiyan breathed a sigh of relief. Thankfully, she hadn’t found anything bizarre like a female ghost head by the window.
“What? My Little Su Zi misses me? Are you currently searching for my magnificent figure?”
Xiao Moyan spoke with uncanny accuracy, making Su Xiyan’s face darken. She looked at He Jingmo, who also frowned, looking puzzled.
“CEO Xiao, what is it exactly?”
Su Xiyan was genuinely terrified of this elusive woman now. Xiao Moyan sensed her fear through the phone and gave a charming smile, “Hey, I just missed you recently, so I called to chat.”
Su Xiyan wouldn’t believe Xiao Moyan’s implausible excuse. She thought for a moment and pouted, “…Are you and Miss Xia here on vacation?”
“Ahahaha, what a smart kid. By the way, I’m at the airport now and urgently need accommodation. Hurry up and come pick us up.”
Xiao Moyan spoke like a queen. Su Xiyan’s face turned green, “No way, CEO Xiao, you’re going to stay in the home of us common folk?”
“Hey, I thought so too, but Xiaxia said she wanted to experience the life of common people, so I can only comply. It’s 11 o’clock now. You have half an hour to pick us up. Don’t make my woman wait anxiously. Bye-bye.”
“…”
After hanging up, Su Xiyan and He Jingmo looked at each other, helpless against this mercurial CEO Xiao. He Ranran and Su Nan looked at them in surprise, “What’s wrong? Who is this CEO Xiao that she can scare you two like this?”
“She’s not human…”
Su Xiyan’s voice was a little dry. There were already enough extra people in the house. If two more came, how would she and He Jingmo endure it?
“Look at you. Is she going to stay here? How about Ranran and I go out for a few more days?” Su Nan also guessed Xiao Moyan’s identity and status from Su Xiyan’s reaction. Su Xiyan quickly nodded. Right now, she wanted to drive away as many people as possible.
He Ranran and Su Nan politely left. Su Xiyan also put on a coat and was about to head out. He Jingmo grabbed her arm, “I’ll go with you.”
“It’s too late. You go to sleep first. I’ll go alone.” Su Xiyan shook her head, refusing. He Jingmo didn’t speak, just stared into her eyes. Su Xiyan was helpless and sighed, “Fine.”
Fortunately, there weren’t many cars late at night. They arrived at the airport in less than half an hour. Although it was pitch dark, He Jingmo immediately recognized Xiao Moyan and Xia Lingying in the massive airport. She nudged Su Xiyan’s arm and gestured with her eyes towards the two of them. Su Xiyan immediately waved:
“CEO Xiao, Miss Xia!”
Su Xiyan waved. Xiao Moyan, pulling a large suitcase and wearing sunglasses late at night, walked towards them, holding Xia Lingying, smiling, “Oh, I’m sorry, Little Su Zi, for bothering you in the middle of the night.”
“I really don’t see any sign of you being sorry, CEO Xiao.” Su Xiyan resignedly took the suitcase. Although she wasn’t very familiar with Xiao Moyan, the later interactions had made her sincerely admire and approve of this woman, and even unconsciously feel a sense of closeness. Xiao Moyan certainly felt this and winked at Xia Lingying about her own charm.
“Little Su Zi, your eyesight is good. You can see us even in the dark.”
Xiao Moyan rarely praised so generously, even placing her right hand on Su Xiyan’s shoulder. Su Xiyan smiled, “Jingmo saw you.”
“Oh? Teacher He, very good, very good. Worthy of a teacher’s eyes.”
He Jingmo coldly glanced at Xiao Moyan’s hand and said emotionlessly, “Late at night, the Black and White Impermanence are easy to spot.”
“…”
Xiao Moyan looked at her black dress and Xia Lingying’s white clothes, froze for a moment, and looked at He Jingmo. Xia Lingying on the side sighed, “Xiao, do you still want your claw?” He Jingmo’s jealousy was no less than hers back in the day, and Xiao really was something. She was showing off and made her look like a ghost officer too.
Xiao Moyan quickly retracted her hand and looked at Su Xiyan in surprise. She blinked and asked with a hint of delight, “What’s going on, Little Su Zi? Have you two made it official?” These two girls were quick. They were practically sprinting toward happiness.
“It’s official!” Su Xiyan was practically grinning from ear to ear. He Jingmo gave her a look, and she immediately cleared her throat, pulling the luggage and walking straight to the parking lot.
The atmosphere was harmonious on the way. Xiao Moyan talked about the purpose of her visit. Su Xiyan and He Jingmo felt like crying when they heard it.
Simply because Xia Lingying had dreamed of Harbin’s Ice and Snow World yesterday and described it to her, CEO Xiao, without a second thought, waved her hand, canceled all her work, and rushed over. He Jingmo had no reaction, but Su Xiyan’s hands tightened on the steering wheel. She secretly vowed that she would treat He Jingmo this way too, to let her live a life like a fairy.
Upon arriving at the Su family home, Xiao Moyan and Xia Lingying looked around. Xia Lingying went to sleep due to travel fatigue. He Jingmo also wasn’t energetic, but Xiao Moyan and Su Xiyan bought some snacks to go with beer and started drinking while watching TV with gusto.
“Little Su Zi, I didn’t expect to see your little face blooming with spring after just a few days.”
“Oh, it’s nothing, not too bad.” Su Xiyan replied shyly, feeling extremely happy inside. Xiao Moyan chuckled, “Not too bad when it’s overflowing? Tell your sister, have you two slept together?”
“CEO Xiao!” Su Xiyan gritted her teeth and glared at her, “Can’t you stop ruining this beautiful atmosphere? Why are you always so filthy?!”
Xiao Moyan raised an eyebrow at her and took a sip of beer, “Oh, look at that frustrated look. Did you get rejected when you pleaded for intimacy?”
“Of course not.” Su Xiyan was like a punctured balloon, her momentum deflated by Xiao Moyan’s single sentence. Xiao Moyan found her reaction amusing, “What, did I hit the nail on the head? I don’t believe it. I see how deeply Miss He is devoted to you. How could she bear to refuse?”
“Stop with ‘Miss He, Miss He.’ It sounds like some illicit profession. Call her Jingmo.” Su Xiyan frowned. She was now even controlling the use of her name. Xiao Moyan looked at her and laughed charmingly, “I wouldn’t dare, would I? Look at how possessive you two are. I just looked at you a little longer today, and Miss He looked like she was ready to eat me.”
“Really?” Su Xiyan looked at Xiao Moyan in surprise. Xiao Moyan nodded, “Of course.”
“Oh my, I really am that charming.”
Su Xiyan modestly smoothed her hair, incredibly shy. Xiao Moyan choked on her beer and coughed continuously.
She had to admit, after all these years, she had finally met her match…
“I told you to call her that, so you call her that. I’m the one who calls the shots in my house!”
Su Xiyan was floating on air after Xiao Moyan’s two compliments. Xiao Moyan didn’t give her face this time, scoffing, “You? You’re as scared of her as a mouse is of a cat, and you dare to boast?”
“The feeling is mutual. Compared to CEO Xiao being under the thumb of her wife, where am I at?” Su Xiyan retorted, baring her teeth. Xiao Moyan looked at her scornfully, “What do you know? Is that me being under the thumb of my wife? That’s respect, respect for women!”
“Hmph, why don’t you respect me then?”
“Why should I respect you? Are you going to sleep with me?”
“CEO Xiao, can you be any more shameless?!”
“Of course, how shameless do you want me to be?”
“…”
Su Xiyan finally admitted defeat. She hung her head and stopped talking. Xiao Moyan patted her head contentedly, “Good girl. It’s good that you know you’re wrong. How about I pass on a few tricks to you?”
“What experience do you have?” Although Su Xiyan’s tone still carried a hint of doubt, the anticipation in her eyes didn’t escape Xiao Moyan. She curved her lips, leaned back against the sofa, and looked at Su Xiyan with an extremely seductive expression.
“Why are you looking at me like that…”
Su Xiyan’s face felt warm. She had to admit, Xiao Moyan was very alluring. Her figure was naturally good. After drinking, her cheeks had a faint pink color. Her long legs were held together, and she was just leaning against the sofa. Her brown hair draped over her chest, rising and falling with her breathing. That curve, that cleavage…
“Hurry up and put away that lustful gaze. What would happen if my Xiaxia saw that?”
Xiao Moyan’s words shattered the dreamy atmosphere. Su Xiyan’s face was a little red. She glared at her angrily, “Do you think I want to look at you? It’s your fault for trying to flirt!”
“I was flirting?”
Xiao Moyan looked at Su Xiyan mockingly, “I just smiled casually, and you fell for it. Why don’t you try flirting with someone else and see if you can do it?”
“You think I can’t?!”
Su Xiyan’s competitive spirit was ignited. She might be humbled by Xiao Moyan’s experience in work, but in terms of natural beauty, Su Xiyan considered herself the number one person in the universe, second only to He Jingmo. Would she lose to this woman past her prime? A joke! She turned off the living room light, leaving only the dim wall light to set the mood. With everything ready, she began her strategy of unleashing her charm and seduction.
Evidently, Su Xiyan’s seduction method was younger and more direct than Xiao Moyan’s. She tossed her long hair, unbuttoned her shirt with one hand, looked at Xiao Moyan seductively, walked up to her, and began to perform a close, sensual dance right in front of her.
Xiao Moyan had been exposed to countless temptations throughout the years, but this was the first time she had encountered something as direct as Su Xiyan. She smiled alluringly at Su Xiyan, moving her body to match Su Xiyan’s actions.
When two masters meet, it reveals the true hero…
Su Xiyan used all her dance skills, twisting her body and exposing her midriff. Xiao Moyan was equally welcoming, occasionally lifting Su Xiyan’s chin and looking at her mischievously with raised eyebrows. The two enjoyed themselves, fueled by the alcohol. Just as the dance was reaching its climax, there was a sudden “click” sound, and bright, dazzling lights came on. Two cold, synchronized voices sounded.
“What are you two doing?”
“Oh my God!” Su Xiyan gasped in fright, lost her balance, and tumbled into Xiao Moyan’s arms. Xiao Moyan instinctively reached out to catch her.
This moment, this action… was truly like being caught in the act.
