When An Ancient Chinese Romance Novel Heroine Transmigrated Into A Lesbian Novel - Chapter 39

Jiang Jiang silently closed her mouth, and even lowered her head.

Ji Xu’an looked straight ahead, only glancing at her out of the corner of her eye. Even though she couldn’t see the expression on Jiang Jiang’s face, she could guess that the other party must have a look of grievance at the moment.

Ji Xu’an had to comfort her in a hoarse voice, “I didn’t mean to say you were noisy. Doesn’t your foot hurt? Talk less and save your strength.”

As she spoke, one hand wrapped around Jiang Jiang’s waist, and the other arm passed through the bend of Jiang Jiang’s legs, lifting Jiang Jiang up horizontally.

The momentary feeling of being suspended in the air prompted Jiang Jiang to grab Ji Xu’an’s clothes tightly. She closed her eyes, feeling Ji Xu’an carrying her forward a few steps.

Jiang Jiang opened her eyes, watching Ji Xu’an bend down and carefully place her on the wheelchair. Ji Xu’an’s profile was constantly magnified in front of her, so close that she could count the other party’s long, curled eyelashes clearly.

Jiang Jiang stared straight at Ji Xu’an, and when she spoke again, her voice still had a nasal tone, “Is Sister really not angry with me?”

“I’m the one who did something wrong, why should I be angry?” Ji Xu’an didn’t look at Jiang Jiang all the time, but she knew that Jiang Jiang was looking at her. Ji Xu’an couldn’t help but tighten her expression, not daring to relax at all.

She put the small blanket on Jiang Jiang’s legs, and then let the other party put on her coat, before pushing Jiang Jiang out.

The ambiguous accident earlier didn’t seem to affect her much. Other than a brief flash of suppressed emotion when she told Jiang Jiang to stop talking, she showed no other signs of distress.

Because Jiang Jiang kept saying that her foot hurt, Ji Xu’an walked relatively quickly, and even forgot to take the crutches.

It wasn’t until they got downstairs that Ji Xu’an remembered this. At this time, it was impossible for her to go back to get them.

Anyway, she had already carried her just now. Ji Xu’an didn’t even wait for Jiang Jiang to imply it, and directly bent down to pick up Jiang Jiang. Jiang Jiang also very naturally hooked her neck, and her whole body shrank into Ji Xu’an’s arms like a bird clinging to someone.

The bottom line was gradually lowered.

Clearly, not long ago, Ji Xu’an would feel uncomfortable even if she accidentally touched Jiang Jiang’s face, but now she could carry Jiang Jiang in her arms without changing her expression.

Even if the situation was urgent, if Ji Xu’an hadn’t been open to this intimacy, , how could she compromise with Jiang Jiang again and again?

Ji Xu’an didn’t think much, and the situation didn’t allow her to think much. She put Jiang Jiang in the passenger seat, and even took the initiative to fasten the seat belt for the other party.

After confirming that there was no problem with Jiang Jiang, Ji Xu’an went around to the other side to drive.

Jiang Jiang’s face was still not very good, and the blush that had come out of her face from sleeping had all dissipated because of the accident just now. She leaned against the back of the chair with her eyes half-closed, and her face could vaguely show a bit of fatigue.

Ji Xu’an’s expression was cold and heavy. She turned the steering wheel, and the vehicle, like an arrow leaving the string, quickly drove out of the underground parking lot.

Fortunately, she didn’t have to wait for the red light much along the way. Ji Xu’an parked the car steadily, and then came down to carry Jiang Jiang.

Jiang Jiang shook her left foot without showing any signs. Actually, it didn’t hurt much anymore. She had a sense of propriety and wouldn’t really let herself get hurt again.

However, it was good to go to the hospital for a checkup. Anyway, the day for the follow-up visit was in two days, and Jiang Jiang also wanted to know how her foot was recovering.

Because there was no one else, Ji Xu’an went to register and queue up. Jiang Jiang was originally worried that Ji Xu’an wouldn’t be used to it, but she didn’t expect the other party to be quite skilled.

She had just been discharged from the hospital and came back again. The doctor had some complaints about Ji Xu’an.

But she didn’t say much, only repeatedly reminding Jiang Jiang, “Be sure to pay attention to rest, and don’t rush to use your left foot before it has completely recovered.”

Jiang Jiang nodded repeatedly in response. After coming out of the consultation room, Jiang Jiang looked up at Ji Xu’an, her face full of apology, “Sister, I will definitely pay attention next time.”

Ji Xu’an supported the wheelchair, and met her gaze with an inscrutable expression, “You don’t need to apologize, it’s my fault for not taking good care of you.”

Ji Xu’an didn’t seem to want to discuss this topic too much. Without waiting for Jiang Jiang to speak, she continued to ask, “It’s getting late, let me take you to dinner.”

“What do you want to eat?”

Jiang Jiang subconsciously rubbed her stomach. She was indeed a little hungry, “I want to drink porridge.”

“Okay.”

Ji Xu’an drove her to a well-known porridge shop. It was meal time, and there were quite a few people in the shop.

After Jiang Jiang ordered, Ji Xu’an’s phone suddenly rang. She showed Jiang Jiang a slightly apologetic expression, “I’ll go out to answer a call first.”

“You go ahead, Sister. I’ll wait for you here.”

Jiang Jiang propped her chin, watching Ji Xu’an stride out.

Before she had time to withdraw her gaze, someone gently patted her shoulder. Jiang Jiang turned her head and saw that it was actually Fu Xiaoyin.

Fu Xiaoyin was beaming, “What a coincidence, Jiang Jiang, we meet again.”

Fu Xiaoyin smiled with a look of surprise, and you couldn’t tell at all that she had actually followed the two of them.

Jiang Jiang said, “Sister Fu, you’re here too.”

Fu Xiaoyin raised her eyebrows, “Maybe this is fate.”

As earlier, she was worried about missing her chance to talk to Jiang Jiang, only to have Ji Xu’an leave to answer a phone call.

It seemed that even God was helping her.

While Ji Xu’an hadn’t noticed, Fu Xiaoyin couldn’t wait to take out her phone, “Let’s add each other as friends first.”

Jiang Jiang didn’t refuse.

After successfully scanning the code, Fu Xiaoyin asked again, “I feel like I really have a connection with you. Can we take a picture together?”

“Don’t worry, I won’t use it for anything, just to keep it as a souvenir.”

Her eyes weren’t saying that.

Jiang Jiang knew that Fu Xiaoyin’s purpose was definitely not simple, but she couldn’t guess what the other party wanted to do.

After hesitating for a few seconds, Jiang Jiang still agreed.

Fu Xiaoyin squatted down, bringing her head close to Jiang Jiang’s head.

With a click, the expressions of the two were captured.

Fu Xiaoyin was satisfied, but before she could put away her phone, she suddenly caught sight of a familiar figure walking quickly towards this side. The smile on Fu Xiaoyin’s face suddenly froze.

Ji Xu’an didn’t expect that just while she was answering the phone, Jiang Jiang had been pestered again.

“Manager Fu.” Ji Xu’an looked at Fu Xiaoyin with an indifferent expression, “What are you doing here?”

Jiang Jiang was easy to deceive, but not Ji Xu’an.

Fu Xiaoyin felt a cold sweat break out on her back. The attention she had longed for but never received was finally directed at her, yet it stemmed from suspicion and rejection.

Ji Xu’an really didn’t have any thoughts about her.

“This is a restaurant, of course I’m here to eat, President Ji, is there a problem?”

Ji Xu’an suppressed the irritability in her heart, “There’s no problem, I just think you’re a little too close to my fiancée, and I want to remind you to pay attention to social distance.”

Fu Xiaoyin twitched the corners of her mouth, “When did President Ji have such a cute fiancée, how come people don’t know? Didn’t Jiang Jiang say that she was just your sister?”

For a moment, Ji Xu’an felt that the word “sister” was a bit harsh.

“This is my private matter, and I won’t bother Manager Fu to care.” Ji Xu’an sat down in her seat, and glanced at Fu Xiaoyin standing next to her, “Manager Fu, is there anything else?”

Fu Xiaoyin gritted her teeth. She used to think that Ji Xu’an was cold and aloof, and although her personality was a bit strong, she was also very charismatic. Today, she realized that Ji Xu’an’s mouth could really piss people off.

“No, nothing!” Fu Xiaoyin said each word one by one, and when she turned her head to look at Jiang Jiang, she smiled again, “Since someone doesn’t welcome me, we can only chat next time.”

“Goodbye, Sister Fu.” Jiang Jiang waved to her.

She watched Fu Xiaoyin leave, and turned her head to see Ji Xu’an looking at her with a dark gaze. For some reason, Jiang Jiang felt that she saw a trace of grievance in Ji Xu’an’s eyes.

She didn’t think much, and didn’t say anything to comfort Ji Xu’an. Instead, she lowered her head and played with her fingers, seeming a little absent-minded.

Jiang Jiang’s reaction was very strange when she met Fu Xiaoyin twice today, and alarm bells rang in Ji Xu’an’s heart.

“Do you like Manager Fu very much?” She asked as if inadvertently.

Jiang Jiang struggled for a while before nodding uncertainly.

“Sister Fu has a very unique temperament.”

Jiang Jiang couldn’t seem to find the words to describe that feeling. her expression, clearly recalling something, made Ji Xu’an feel even more displeased.

After thinking for a long time, Jiang Jiang finally understood, “I feel she’s very reliable.”

Ji Xu’an seemed to understand what Jiang Jiang meant. Because of the lack of fatherly and motherly love, Jiang Jiang had an instinctive longing and admiration for women who were older than her. She could understand just by looking at Jiang Jiang’s attitude towards her.

But I had at least been with Jiang Jiang for a while, what about Fu Xiaoyin?

They had only met today.

It must be Fu Xiaoyin who used sweet words to deceive Jiang Jiang!

Ji Xu’an was very sullen, but looking at the smile on Jiang Jiang’s face, she couldn’t bear to shatter Jiang Jiang’s fantasy.

Forget it, Ji Xu’an tried to convince herself again that the person Jiang Jiang trusted most was definitely still her.

Before Ji Xu’an could relax, Jiang Jiang suddenly said something shocking: “Sister, can I have a relationship?”

Ji Xu’an almost suspected that she had heard wrong.

But when Ji Xu’an met Jiang Jiang’s troubled gaze, she could no longer deceive herself; the seriousness in Jiang Jiang’s eyes told her everything.

“You want to date Fu Xiaoyin?” Ji Xu’an heard herself ask very calmly.

But her heart wasn’t calm at all, it could even be said to be absurd.

Jiang Jiang didn’t speak, only bit her lip, but the blush that floated on her face was so obvious that anyone could understand her thoughts.

Ji Xu’an felt a burst of throbbing pain in her brow, “You only met for the first time today, what do you like about her?”

Jiang Jiang said softly, “Sister Fu is very good-looking and very gentle to me.”

“Just because of that?” Ji Xu’an couldn’t understand.

As for how good-looking Fu Xiaoyin was, it wasn’t necessarily true, wasn’t she just an ordinary-looking person?

Objectively speaking, Fu Xiaoyin was still very beautiful, and her temperament was also very outstanding, but Ji Xu’an didn’t like her now, and only felt that she wasn’t good enough anywhere.

As for being gentle to her, they were all adults, could she really harm her boss’s rumored girlfriend?

If Jiang Jiang simply liked Fu Xiaoyin because of these two points, it was really impossible to convince Ji Xu’an.

She even had an absurd thought, wasn’t I more attractive than Fu Xiaoyin, and more gentle to Jiang Jiang than her?

Why would Jiang Jiang fall in love with Fu Xiaoyin who was inferior to me in every way?

Jiang Jiang’s thick eyelashes were half-lowered, “Emotions are a very strange thing, it’s not impossible to fall in love at first sight.”

“Sometimes, a single moment can change everything,” she said. “And there are plenty of people who didn’t like each other at first, but fell in love later.”

Hearing these words, something seemed to flash through Ji Xu’an’s mind, but it disappeared too quickly, and she couldn’t grasp it.

She admitted that what Jiang Jiang said made sense, but Ji Xu’an still couldn’t accept the fact that Jiang Jiang liked Fu Xiaoyin.

But before she could find a reason to object to Jiang Jiang, Jiang Jiang smiled and said to Ji Xu’an, “And I’m not sure if I really like Sister Fu, I just think she’s a pretty good person, and Sister Fu seems to have a good impression of me.”

She looked at Ji Xu’an with a smile, and her almond eyes sparkled with a moving light, “Sister, if I really confirm my feelings, can you help me?”

Ji Xu’an didn’t know what she was angry about, but there was a fire burning in her heart.

She even wanted to ask Jiang Jiang, do you know what you’re saying?

But Ji Xu’an didn’t say these words. Based on her experience from educating Ji Heyuan in the past, children often have rebellious bones. The more you don’t let them do something, the more they want to do it.

So at this time, she couldn’t blindly oppose Jiang Jiang, she had to guide her step by step.

Ji Xu’an looked at Jiang Jiang deeply, “Okay.”

Ji Xu’an attributed her opposition to the fact that Fu Xiaoyin wasn’t suitable for Jiang Jiang. She thought that if she met someone more suitable for Jiang Jiang in the future, and Jiang Jiang also liked the other person, she would definitely agree.

Jiang Jiang ate this meal with satisfaction, but Ji Xu’an had some difficulty swallowing.

After eating, the two set off for home. Jiang Jiang had been replying to messages on the way.

The ding-dong sound kept ringing in Ji Xu’an’s ears. Ji Xu’an glanced at it, and a bad premonition suddenly rose in her heart, “Who are you chatting with?”

Jiang Jiang pursed her lips and smiled, confirming the guess in Ji Xu’an’s heart, “It’s Sister Fu. She asked me if I was back, and said she would take me to eat a particularly delicious French meal next time.”

Ji Xu’an pursed her lips slightly. She still had time to take girls to eat French meals, it seemed that Fu Xiaoyin was quite free.

Jiang Jiang glanced at Ji Xu’an’s tight face without showing any signs. She turned her phone to silent, and then put her phone away.

“Sister, have you ever liked someone before?” Jiang Jiang asked with a curious face.

It was natural for sisters to discuss such things, but Ji Xu’an was simmering with resentment, her reply curt and cold.

“No.”

“Today, Sister Fu told me that you used to have a good relationship with a female celebrity.” Jiang Jiang tentatively brought up this matter. Of course, she didn’t mention Zhou Zi’an’s name. If there really was something between Ji Xu’an and Zhou Zi’an, she would definitely know who she was referring to.

Sure enough, after hearing the words “female celebrity,” Ji Xu’an’s expression became even colder. She glanced at Jiang Jiang without leaving a trace, taking in the gossip and expectation on Jiang Jiang’s face.

Ji Xu’an said expressionlessly, “She’s lying to you.”

It seemed that there really was a story here, but it might not be as Fu Xiaoyin said. Unfortunately, Ji Xu’an wasn’t willing to tell her, and Jiang Jiang could only suppress the curiosity in her heart for now, and prepare to investigate it properly later.

“Then what kind of person does Sister like? Boys or girls?” Jiang Jiang paused, her voice with an imperceptible loss, “The person Sister likes must be someone who can match you, right?”

Ji Xu’an’s hand holding the steering wheel tightened slightly, “Why do you say that?”

“Just a feeling.” Jiang Jiang thought for a while, “Compared to an ignorant child who needs you to take care of, someone who can walk side by side with you is definitely more worthy of your appreciation, right?”

Ji Xu’an was silent for a few seconds, “Like you said, no one can say for sure about love. A heartbeat is just a moment. It doesn’t matter what kind of person she is, as long as I like her, that’s enough.”

After saying these words, Ji Xu’an even felt her heartbeat quicken a bit.

It was really strange. She had never been interested in love before, but now she could actually say such things.

Jiang Jiang said slowly, “I’m happy you’re so good to me. You’re so gentle, you’ll definitely be even better to your partner.”

“If my girlfriend in the future is as gentle as Sister, that would be great. I’m too stupid, and I hope she can be more mature and strong, like Sister, patiently tolerating my mistakes and sheltering me from storms.”

Ji Xu’an’s heart skipped a beat, “You…”

She wasn’t stupid, and always felt that Jiang Jiang’s words seemed to have a hidden meaning.

But the next second, Jiang Jiang immediately broke Ji Xu’an’s suspicion, “I feel that Sister Fu fits my requirements quite well.”

Ji Xu’an’s breathing sank slightly. However, Jiang Jiang didn’t stop, and continued to say,”Actually, Sister Chu is also really nice. She’s very good to me, too.”

Jiang Jiang held her small face, her eyes full of shyness and embarrassment, “They are all very good people.”

Ji Xu’an breathed out a deep breath, and then sneered in her heart.

They were all very good?

Not necessarily.

She thought she might be going crazy. She had actually felt that Jiang Jiang was hinting at her just now.

Didn’t I already know that Jiang Jiang only treat me as a sister?

Thinking of this, Ji Xu’an pressed the horn hard, and the corners of her lips were almost drawn into a straight line.

Jiang Jiang didn’t speak for the rest of the journey, and Ji Xu’an didn’t say a word either. Both of them looked preoccupied.

…

It wasn’t too late, so Jiang Jiang packed up and prepared to take a shower.

Ji Xu’an helped her get the hot water ready. She didn’t leave immediately, but stood in the bathroom and looked at Jiang Jiang.

They looked at each other in silence.

After a few seconds, Ji Xu’an’s thin lips parted slightly, and she asked, “I’ll wait for you outside?”

Jiang Jiang thought that Ji Xu’an might hear the sound of her bathing, and her cheeks couldn’t help but blush a little, “No need, Sister. I’ll be careful, nothing will happen.”

Ji Xu’an knew that Jiang Jiang was shy, but perhaps the restlessness that had been suppressed in her heart hadn’t had time to dissipate, and Ji Xu’an couldn’t help but think, could it also be that Jiang Jiang was guarding against me?

“What if you accidentally fall, and I’m not there? Can you do it yourself?”

Ji Xu’an’s tone didn’t allow for refusal, “Go wash up, I’ll sit on the sofa for a while.”

Jiang Jiang had no choice but to nod, “Then I’ll trouble Sister.”

Seeing that the look in her eyes was still bright and clear, Ji Xu’an’s mood seemed to be a little better, “It’s no trouble, go ahead.”

As she spoke, she turned around and retreated, and thoughtfully closed the bathroom door.

Jiang Jiang soaked herself in the hot water, and was still thinking about what happened today.

Fu Xiaoyin’s effect on Ji Xu’an seemed greater than Jiang Jiang had anticipated. Jiang Jiang had only hinted at it, but despite Ji Xu’an’s outwardly calm demeanor, subtle expressions betrayed her inner displeasure.

Was it because I am still wearing the title of her fiancée?

After all, she had taken the initiative to admit my identity as a fiancée in front of Fu Xiaoyin today.

It was precisely because of this that Jiang Jiang had a series of probing behaviors afterwards.

Right now, things were still within Jiang Jiang’s expectations, and everything was even developing in the direction Jiang Jiang wanted. She closed her eyes and submerged her nose and mouth in the hot water.

Maybe it wouldn’t be long before I got my wish?

Jiang Jiang had already figured it out. After a while, she would ask Grandma to help her again.

…

After taking a bath, Jiang Jiang’s whole body was steamed with heat, making her skin white and rosy. She didn’t accidentally fall, but Ji Xu’an was still worried and took the initiative to take over the job of drying her hair.

A few days ago, how could Jiang Jiang have imagined that one day she would be able to enjoy Ji Xu’an’s service?

Perhaps it was because she had gotten used to taking care of Jiang Jiang these days, Ji Xu’an didn’t feel uncomfortable at all. Looking at Jiang Jiang sitting obediently in front of her, Ji Xu’an even felt a little satisfied.

Jiang Jiang was really obedient. She closed her eyes when asked to close her eyes, and raised her head when asked to raise her head. Ji Xu’an even had the illusion of dressing up a doll.

She gently massaged Jiang Jiang’s scalp with her fingertips, and then combed down Jiang Jiang’s long hair, her movements were extremely gentle.

Jiang Jiang closed her eyes and didn’t know anything. She turned her head to cooperate with Ji Xu’an. When she tilted her head, she seemed to feel her lips brush against something, warm and soft, like Ji Xu’an’s fingers.

Jiang Jiang suddenly opened her eyes, but there was nothing in front of her.

“Sister?” Jiang Jiang raised her neck, looking at Ji Xu’an in confusion, “Just now, did I…”

Ji Xu’an rubbed her long hair, her expression calm and composed, “Hmm? What is it?”

Jiang Jiang retracted her gaze, “It’s nothing, maybe I was mistaken.”

She didn’t see it, but Ji Xu’an, who was standing behind her, breathed a sigh of relief silently, and there was also a subtle pause in the fingertips that were playing with Jiang Jiang’s long hair.

It was indeed just an accident just now, but Ji Xu’an found that she didn’t seem to dislike it.

If it was Jiang Jiang, she even felt that she could accept it even if they were closer.

Ji Xu’an couldn’t help but fall into deep thought.

…

Jiang Jiang slept alone at night.

When they were in the hospital, it could be said that it was a last resort, but now they were at home, and the two couldn’t find an excuse to sleep in the same bed.

When Jiang Jiang woke up the next morning, Ji Xu’an had already gone to work, but Jiang Jiang wasn’t the only one at home.

“Yo, Miss Xie, you’re awake?”

Jiang Jiang had just walked to the living room when she saw a head poking out of the kitchen.

“Sister Zhou?” Jiang Jiang was a little surprised.

She suddenly remembered that Ji Xu’an had already told her last night that she would find someone to take care of her, but Jiang Jiang didn’t expect this person to be Sister Zhou.

“It’s me, did Miss tell you?” Sister Zhou wiped her hands on her apron, her face smiling, “It’s inconvenient for you to be alone at home, Miss asked me to come and cook for you.”

“Mm, thank you.” Jiang Jiang slowly walked to the dining table and sat down, and Sister Zhou didn’t come over to help her.

After Jiang Jiang sat down, Sister Zhou said, “My hands are dirty, it’s not convenient, can you do it alone?”

Jiang Jiang chuckled, “It’s okay, just do your thing.”

So Sister Zhou went back to the kitchen.

Jiang Jiang looked at her back, and her smile slowly faded.

The feeling this person gave her was very strange. When she lived in the old house before, Jiang Jiang always felt that Sister Zhou was silently observing her, and Jiang Jiang could feel that Sister Zhou didn’t like her very much.

If it was because Ji Xu’an’s attitude towards me was cold before, but now Ji Xu’an had already changed her attitude towards me, why did Sister Zhou still have a bad opinion on me then?

Jiang Jiang tapped the table lightly with her fingertips. There must be a hidden secret behind this that I don’t know about. Sister Zhou didn’t seem to have been mentioned in the original story, so she probably didn’t hate me because of Zheng Zhouzhou.

Then what was the reason?

There is a reason for everything. The grievances and entanglements in this world are nothing more than stemming from emotions or interests.

Which aspect was Sister Zhou because of?

After eating breakfast, Jiang Jiang went back to her room to read. Sister Zhou looked at her back with a thoughtful look.

An hour and a half later, Sister Zhou was walking back to Star River Bay with newly bought vegetables. On the way, she received a call, the other person said something that prompted a confident reply from Sister Zhou.

“I saw it with my own eyes. Miss and Miss Xie came out of different rooms. They definitely didn’t sleep together!”

“If they are really a fiancée with a good relationship, why sleep in separate rooms?!”
