You Should Have Told Me You Don't Like Sweet Girls - Chapter 40

Chapter 40

What was said was done.

As soon as she hung up the phone, Su Yu immediately made a call, sending someone to buy a house in that neighborhood and instructed them to hand over the key card to the woman who successfully followed Shi Xueqian.

Jiang Nianyi seemed a little excited. “We’re finally making some progress!”

Su Yu looked at Qin Shuangyuan. “Any progress on your end?”

Qin Shuangyuan shook her head. She had been looking for the person behind the a-list who had covered up Shi Xueqian’s personal information, as Duan Qing had told her to. “No, it was done very cleanly.”

A rare cloud of worry gathered on Jiang Nianyi’s sweet face. “What kind of environment does Shi Xueqian live in…”

Qin Shuangyuan asked a question. “Why wouldn’t senior tell you? She shouldn’t be unaware of your family background, right?”

In terms of family background alone, in the entire Yuncheng, besides the Lu family and the Qin family, who had a slight ability to contend, if the Su family wanted to deal with the other families, it would be as easy as flipping their hand.

Jiang Nianyi frowned. “Her family has pushed her to the brink of death so many times. Does she… still have feelings for that family?”

The words fell, and a silence erupted. This was an answer that only Shi Xueqian herself knew.

After a long time, Qin Shuangyuan looked at Su Yu. “A’Yu, have you never thought of going to see your grandmother again?”

How could she not have thought of it? She had left a note with her contact information for the little girl in the village, telling the little girl to contact her immediately if anything happened to her grandmother. She had also asked the little girl about some things, but the little girl was only in fifth grade now. She wasn’t even born when Shi Xueqian was a child.

She couldn’t find out anything.

As for going to see her grandmother herself, she had originally planned to go back after she was done with the club stuff. Who knew so many things would happen after she came back?

“If I suddenly disappear for a few days, I’m afraid senior will overthink it,” she said, looking up at her two friends. “How about you two go for me? You can also keep her company. She’ll be your grandmother in the future, too.”

Although the three of them were not related by bl00d, they were like siblings. Each of them had three pairs of parents. Shi Xueqian’s grandmother would inevitably become Su Yu’s grandmother in the future, and she would also inevitably become Qin Shuangyuan and Jiang Nianyi’s grandmother.

The two friends looked at each other, didn’t object, and nodded at the same time.

Jiang Nianyi: “Since that’s the case, let’s get a comprehensive understanding of Senior Shi! We’ll go tomorrow. Anyway, I only have one class in the morning on Friday. I’ll go after that.”

Qin Shuangyuan nodded.

Su Yu: “Thank you for making the trip. I’ll tell my grandmother in advance.”

Jiang Nianyi pounded her shoulder. “Your business is our business.”

That night, Su Yu still video-called Shi Xueqian, but no one answered the first two times.

When Su Yu called a third time, it was finally connected. What came into view was Shi Xueqian, who was wet and steaming. She had probably just taken a shower. Her whole body exuded a sense of laziness, which was extremely charming.

Su Yu’s throat rolled. She blinked. “Senior, did you just come out of the shower?”

Shi Xueqian nodded. “What’s wrong?”

Su Yu lay on the desk like a pitiful puppy. “Senior, I miss you.”

Shi Xueqian’s lips curved slightly. “I miss you, too.”

Su Yu kissed her twice through the screen. “Is senior going to rest now?”

Shi Xueqian nodded.

Su Yu: “Okay, then this beautiful Miss Shi, do you need your girlfriend’s service to coax you to sleep tonight?”

Shi Xueqian paused for a moment. She didn’t agree immediately. She glanced at the screen meaningfully. She took the towel off her head. Her soft and delicate hair was let down. She smoothed it out and casually pulled down the neckline of her pajamas. The neckline was wide, and with the pull, it revealed a subtle hint of her beautiful cleavage. Her fair skin shimmered with a tempting glow under the light.

Su Yu’s throat rolled. The words were squeezed out from between her teeth. “Senior, you’re just taking advantage of the fact that I can’t touch you. Go ahead and show off.”

“What are you talking about?” Shi Xueqian looked at her with clear eyes. She tousled her hair again. “I’m just tidying up, getting ready for bed.”

Su Yu: “…”

Okay, okay, I’m the one being a little pervert, thinking with my dirty mind.

She couldn’t go deeper into this topic. It would only make her feel worse if she couldn’t hug or touch her.

She changed the subject, to the real reason she had video-called her today. “Then what bedtime story does senior want to hear today?”

Shi Xueqian lay down on the bed and thought for a moment. “I don’t know. Tell me your favorite story from when you were little.”

Su Yu: “Okay, then senior, close your eyes, be a good girl and go to sleep, and enjoy the service.”

“Su Yu,” Shi Xueqian stared at her. “Did you watch me fall asleep last night?”

Su Yu admitted it readily. “Yes, I did. I feel so happy just by looking at you~ I hope senior can appear in my dream tonight, too~”

“You can watch, but don’t sleep on the desk. It’s not comfortable, and you’ll catch a cold,” Shi Xueqian reminded her.

Su Yu pouted slightly. “Senior, I really want to hug you to sleep.”

Shi Xueqian stroked her cheek through the screen. She also wanted to, but she didn’t know when that day would come. Maybe after Su Yu graduated, or maybe never…

What she didn’t expect was that she would be at Su Yu’s house the very next afternoon.

The car drove into the Su family’s villa neighborhood. The flowers in the garden were in full bloom, and green grass covered the ground. Shi Xueqian looked out the car window. It was almost winter, but she didn’t expect to see such a beautiful scene.

She was looking at the flowers, and Su Yu was looking at her. “Senior, do you like this scenery?”

Su Yu still remembered that Shi Xueqian had said she liked beautiful scenery. Originally, many flowers that weren’t in season in the winter were planted in the garden. They were all wilted and about to die. After she made plans to bring Shi Xueqian over, she had people move the withered flowers and plant seasonal ones instead.

“I like it.” Shi Xueqian closed her eyes, feeling the wind blowing towards her. The wind carried a faint scent of flowers. As she had expected, beautiful scenery would make people relax.

Su Yu’s lips curved slightly. “Senior, are you not nervous anymore?”

Before they came, Su Yu had explained everything to Shi Xueqian, including who the actors would be, the specific filming locations, and so on.

Shi Xueqian had first read Su Yu’s script. It was a very warm and loving family drama. But after listening to Su Yu’s explanation, she was stunned for almost ten seconds.

Su Yu wasn’t in a hurry. She just admired her naive and surprised look. Her eyes were filled with both love and a smile.

For Shi Xueqian, those ten seconds felt as long as a century… She mechanically turned her head and looked at Su Yu. “This… isn’t this the same as meeting your family?”

Her naive and adorable look was so cute that Su Yu couldn’t resist stealing a kiss on her cheek.

Shi Xueqian finally came to her senses completely. She agreed with her own thoughts and pushed the person in front of her away. “Won’t this be, a little inappropriate?”

Her voice was clearly a little tense.

Su Yu rubbed her nose against her cheek. “It’s not meeting the family. You’re all just actors I’ve hired. You’re my collaborators.”

That was true, but who else has a girlfriend as a director for their first film, with their girlfriend’s biological parents as their parents, their girlfriend’s biological sister as their sister, and their girlfriend’s real-life friends as their friends?

No matter how she looked at it, she was the only outsider.

“You’re not an outsider,” Su Yu said, as if she had read her mind. She said seriously, “My parents will be your parents in the future. My sister will be your sister in the future. My friends will also be your friends in the future. My home will also be your home in the future. In fact, if you’re willing to go public, it can be your home now.”

Shi Xueqian didn’t respond to the question of going public.

Su Yu just mentioned it in passing. She continued to comfort her. “So, don’t worry, okay?”

The sunlight shone on both of them. The bright dust particles were like dancing stars. The two of them looked at each other like that, and neither of them said anything.

After an unknown amount of time, Shi Xueqian wrinkled her face. She unconsciously pouted a little, looking a little wronged and pitiful. “But I’m still nervous.”

When Shi Xueqian acted cute, Su Yu felt her heart was about to melt into a ball of cotton candy. She held the back of Shi Xueqian’s neck with one hand and her waist with the other, pressing her against her body. If she didn’t have to go to class later, she would have definitely pushed her down and bullied her properly. Unfortunately, she had a full schedule this morning. Even though she couldn’t see Shi Xueqian in this position, she could at least lock her own nerves even more.

She lightly patted her back. “Don’t be nervous. If you really want to talk about meeting the family, didn’t I already meet senior’s family? Grandmother likes me very much, and my family will like you, too.”

Shi Xueqian’s voice was still tense. “That’s different.”

Su Yu went along with it. “How is it different?”

Shi Xueqian: “When you went to my grandmother’s house, we weren’t together yet.”

Su Yu said as a matter of course, “But in my mind, I went there as senior’s girlfriend.”

Shi Xueqian tapped her collarbone with her fingertips twice. “Do you think everyone is as shameless as you?”

Su Yu chuckled. She held her chin and lifted her head. “Senior is making fun of me now?”

Shi Xueqian said seriously, “I’m just telling the truth.”

She still couldn’t resist. Su Yu lowered her head and sealed her lips. This time, there was no longer the fierce urgency from before, but a gentleness like fine rain, as if she was treating the most precious treasure in the world.

Their lips slowly met and licked. Their breathing slowly became hot. The gentle touch slowly turned into a sweet exploration. Her eyelashes trembled, as if it were a first kiss.

As she gently stroked her earlobe, a purr like a kitten’s came from Shi Xueqian’s throat. She didn’t push her away. Instead, she hugged her even tighter, and her breathing became more rushed.

Su Yu let her go, not yet satisfied. This caused the little cat to let out a dissatisfied whine and chase her to continue the kiss. She backed away a little. She pressed her fingertips on her moist and full lips. “We can’t go on. If we do, I won’t be able to go to class today, senior.”

“Or, do you want me to skip class for you? I’d be very happy to.”

Sure enough, when she heard this, Shi Xueqian didn’t chase after her anymore. Her beautiful amber eyes slowly cleared up. She bit her fingertip in dissatisfaction.

In the afternoon, after Su Yu finished her first and only class, she drove Shi Xueqian home.

The car stopped in front of the villa. Shi Xueqian turned her head to look at Su Yu. Her fingers on her thigh were twisted together, looking a little pitiful.

Su Yu raised her hand and pinched her cheek. “What are you afraid of? Are you afraid my family will make things difficult for you?”

“Don’t worry. Didn’t I tell you? It’s the same as when I met your grandmother. My family doesn’t know you’re my girlfriend yet. I only told them that you’re a beautiful, kind-hearted, and excellent actress from the same school.”

Shi Xueqian: “You didn’t lie to me?”

Su Yu nodded. “I promise I didn’t.”

In fact, she had. The night they got together, she couldn’t wait to get a huge megaphone and announce the good news to the world. Mr. and Mrs. Su had also been urging her to bring her home.

It had only been four days since they got together, but Su Yu had been urged no less than eight hundred times in these three days.

The front door of the villa opened, and Duan Qing and Su Tiancheng quickly came out to greet them. Su Yao and Han Youdi followed slowly behind them.

When Shi Xueqian saw them, she became even more nervous. For a moment, she forgot to open the car door herself. It was Duan Qing who opened the car door for her.

Duan Qing gave a gentleman’s bow. “Welcome to the Su family, little princess Shi~”

Su Tiancheng followed suit. “Welcome to the Su family, little princess Shi~”

The two of them stood on either side of the car door, as if they were knights escorting a princess home.

Su Yao stood to the side with her arms crossed, looking a little helpless. “Mom and Dad, aren’t you being a little too dramatic? You’re scaring her so much she won’t even get out of the car.”

Han Youdi smiled silently on the side.

The Su family had been this enthusiastic when she first came over, too.

Shi Xueqian was indeed a little afraid to get out of the car. She looked at Su Yu in a panic. The latter gave her a reassuring look, and she finally got out of the car and greeted the Su family.

Duan Qing held Shi Xueqian’s hand and walked into the house. Her love for her was not at all hidden. “So you’re Little Shi. Our Su Yu has told us a lot about you. Now that I see you, you really are beautiful and kind-hearted. Even though you’re so busy with your studies, you’re still willing to help our Su Yu make a film.”

Su Tiancheng: “Little Shi, don’t be shy. Just treat this as your own home.”

It was great that her parents liked her lover, but these two were a little too enthusiastic. They had probably thrown all her previous warnings to the wind.

Su Yu walked up and rescued Shi Xueqian from Duan Qing’s hand. “Okay, Mom and Dad, you two go get your makeup and costumes ready. Do whatever you need to do. Let’s start filming. We don’t want to waste senior’s time. She took time out of her busy schedule to help me film.”

Not only that, Su Yao and Han Youdi were also chased away.

Su Yu held Shi Xueqian’s hand, gently stroking the back of her hand. She pinched her cheek with one hand. “Are you okay? Did they scare you?”

Shi Xueqian shook her head.

The Su family was so enthusiastic that she was indeed a little panicked at first, but she could also tell that the Su family genuinely liked her. This diluted her nervousness, and she slowly relaxed.

According to Su Yu’s script, there were four scenes to be filmed today. One was a scene of watering flowers with Duan Qing in the garden. One was a scene of reading in the study with Su Yao. One was a scene of helping Su Tiancheng in the kitchen to make dinner. The last one was a warm scene of the family eating together.

From these scenes, it was clear that Shi Xueqian was playing the role of the most beloved younger sister in the family.

When she got inside, Shi Xueqian realized that there were also many staff members in the house, each doing their own work in an orderly manner. It looked like a very professional team.

Someone greeted Su Yu. “Director, can you come take a look? Is this okay?”

The set didn’t need to be built. They could just use the original look of the Su family’s house, but some details needed to be paid attention to.

Su Yu led Shi Xueqian to the sofa and sat her down. She took out a box of butterfly puzzles and instructed her. “Senior, I’m going to take a look. Can you play with this puzzle here for a while?”

Shi Xueqian nodded obediently.

Su Yu dotingly stroked her head. “Good girl~”

Then, she got up and went into the crowd.

Han Youdi came out from a corner on the second floor. Just as she saw Shi Xueqian, someone from behind hugged her waist.

Su Yao whined and stuck to her. “Honey, come back to the room with me. I finally have some free time. Don’t you feel bad for me? Spend more time with me.”

Han Youdi’s ears immediately turned red. She wanted to push the person behind her away. “Stop messing around. There are so many people here, and your parents are still at home… Mmm!”

The back of her neck was lightly bitten. The back of her neck was her most sensitive spot. Her body quickly went half-soft.

Han Youdi leaned away to avoid her kiss and pushed her. “Tonight, you can do whatever you want with me. Just be good now.”

Su Yao didn’t let go. “Just a little now.”

“Su Yao, can you listen to me?” Han Youdi’s voice became a little more serious, but because her sensitive spot was being held, there was no deterrent effect at all. It was more like she was whining for mercy.

Su Yao forcefully held her chin, dominatingly sealed her lips, and hugged her as she turned into a deserted corner.

Han Youdi struggled. “Su Yao, stop it. What if your parents see us? Tonight, we can do it tonight.”

Seeing her struggling so much, Su Yao reluctantly let her go. If she didn’t let her go now, Han Youdi would really ignore her for several days. The last time they had a semi-forced office play, Han Youdi didn’t talk to her for a week. It felt like it was just yesterday. It was better not to be too presumptuous now.

But now that she was soft and easy to coax, she added a condition. “I’ll let you go, but you have to promise me that we’ll play ‘conference room play’ next time.”

Han Youdi’s perfectly ironed white shirt now had three buttons undone at the collar, revealing her full and tempting cleavage. The corners of her eyes were red. She was clearly aroused. She looked up at the person in front of her. Just a faint lift of her eyes was a clear sign of rejection, but it immediately captured Su Yao’s soul.

Su Yao leaned down. Her tongue slithered up the tempting cleavage. “If you don’t agree, then I don’t agree.”

Han Youdi pushed her head away. “Su Yao, you’re really crazy.”

Su Yao didn’t mind being called crazy. Her lips curved. “I’m only this crazy because my wife spoiled me. Honey, if you don’t agree, we’re going back to the room right now.”

With that, she used her mouth to bite her fourth button.

Su Yao knew that Han Youdi was actually more excited than her at this moment. She knew Han Youdi liked the thrill and the environment where they could be discovered at any time. She liked the thrill of almost getting caught. Her rejection was just because she was too shy.

Han Youdi pressed down on her head to keep her from moving. “Okay, okay, I promise you. Just stop being a hooligan now.”

Su Yao immediately stopped. She kissed her on the corner of her mouth and praised her while re-buttoning her shirt. “My wife loves me the most~”

Just as she finished speaking, her phone rang. She took out her phone and glanced at it. “I’m going to take a call.”

Han Youdi nodded. She walked out again and stood in a place where she could see Shi Xueqian.

She saw Su Yu get up and leave, and Shi Xueqian’s eyes followed her. She sat on the sofa, not touching the puzzle in front of her. She just quietly watched Su Yu.

After an unknown amount of time, she finally moved to the puzzle and started putting it together seriously. A staff member happened to walk in front of her, blocking Han Youdi’s view. When she saw Shi Xueqian again, she was already standing up. There was a touch of red on her fair fingertips. Fresh bl00d was flowing from the wound.

Shi Xueqian stood up unhurriedly and asked something to a passing staff member. The staff member was about to speak when Su Yu, who had noticed Shi Xueqian, immediately rushed over, took her by the hand, and led her to her bedroom.

“What are you looking at? Why are you looking so seriously?”

Su Yao appeared behind Han Youdi and followed her gaze. She saw the backs of her sister and Shi Xueqian walking towards the bedroom.

Han Youdi stared thoughtfully at Shi Xueqian’s back.

Su Yao raised her hand and waved it in front of her eyes. “What’s wrong?”

It shouldn’t have been on purpose, right? It’s a brand new puzzle. It’s normal to accidentally get cut. Han Youdi took her hand away from her eyes. “Nothing.”

In Su Yu’s room, she took a first aid kit from the bookshelf and immediately disinfected Shi Xueqian’s hand. The bl00d was quickly washed away. Su Yu put a bandage on her and finally sighed in relief. “Thank goodness the wound isn’t too deep. Senior, you have to be careful next time.”

Shi Xueqian smiled. “It’s fine. This small wound will heal quickly even if it’s not treated.”

Su Yu frowned slightly. She stood up. “Since senior thinks it’s nothing, then I’ll also make a cut. That way, one for you and one for me, and we’ll be a couple.”

Her tone sounded like a joke, but her eyes were very serious.

“Senior, wait here for me. You can also treat me later.”

With that, she was about to walk out.

Shi Xueqian reached out and grabbed her. “Okay, I get it. I’ll be careful with everything I do from now on.”

Su Yu sat down. “Senior knows how to feel bad for me, but why don’t you know that I’ll feel bad for you?”

“I’m sorry,” Shi Xueqian said, wrapping her arms around her neck. She kissed her on the lips. “I was wrong. Don’t be angry, okay?”

Su Yu turned her face away, avoiding the kiss that was chasing her. Shi Xueqian immediately sat on her lap and pressed her forehead against hers, like a devout believer making a vow. “I won’t say things like that again. Don’t be angry, okay?”

Su Yu fiercely kissed her on the lips, forcing her to completely go limp on her body. Even if she struggled, she wouldn’t let go, and she forced her to respond. It was a sweet and suffocating punishment.

Only when the person on her body was no longer struggling did she let her go. Her fingertips rubbed the red corners of the person’s eyes. She said unhurriedly, “Senior, you can’t say such irresponsible things again.”

“Senior, do you know? You said something similar in the club’s makeup room last time. Do you know how suffocating it was for me to hear that?”

“Senior, you don’t have to love me, but please, you must take good care of yourself, okay?”

Only then did Shi Xueqian realize that last time in the club’s makeup room, Su Yu’s distance was not because of disgust, but because of heartache. The redness in her eyes wasn’t because of anger, but because of pain.

Her mind flashed back to the two times Su Yu had saved her without hesitation.

So it turned out that there really was someone in this world who would be angry if she didn’t take care of herself, who would feel heartache if she didn’t take care of herself, who would be worried if she didn’t take care of herself, and who would cherish her more than she cherished herself.

She had thought that the reason Su Yu was angry was because she knew she was deliberately trying to get her attention.

Shi Xueqian no longer cared that she hadn’t fully recovered her strength. She struggled to sit up. She wrapped her arms around Su Yu’s neck and looked into her eyes that were once again red, as if hot tears could fall at any moment. “Silly girl, how could I not love you? I promise you, I’ll take good care of myself, too.”

“After all, as you said, my life was saved by you, so it’s yours.”

It was only at this moment that Shi Xueqian understood that she was willing to live for Su Yu, and she was willing to defy the Xu family for Su Yu, not because she realized she had fallen in love with Su Yu, but because of Su Yu’s overwhelming, obvious, and unconditional love for her.

This love was as heavy as a mountain, so heavy that she had to live well and repay it with her life.

Su Yu: “Senior, if you say things like that again, I’ll really be mad at you.”

Shi Xueqian rubbed her nose against hers. “Mmm, I won’t say it again. Be a good girl, don’t be angry.”

Su Yu’s eyes darkened. The red threads in her eyes intensified. “Senior, what did you just call me?”

“Good, girl.” Shi Xueqian saw the change in her expression and deliberately slowed down her tone, word by word. Her eyebrows arched slightly. Her naturally charming features were now tinged with this deliberate pose. Her gaze seemed to turn into a tangible strand of love, easily entangling Su Yu’s body and soul, making it impossible to escape.

Every word tapped on the nerve in Su Yu’s body called ‘desire.’

“Good junior, have me.”
