Chi Yingyu was in a foul mood, and of course, Xu Ruobing couldn’t be happy either.
Just moments ago, they had been so close to reaching the peak of their intimacy.
If Chi Yingyu hadn’t suddenly interrupted them, they would have already crossed that final threshold by now—maybe even finished.
In the video, Xu Ruobing squinted her eyes.
Her once lustful, beautiful gaze now held a trace of anger.
But no matter how upset she was inside, Xu Ruobing could only swallow it down bitterly.
There was no way she would lay out such a private matter openly.
Xu Ruobing had no intention of exposing or flaunting these things.
Jiang Lai’s softness, her need for comfort—that side of her was something Xu Ruobing wanted no one else to see.
That version of Jiang Lai should belong only to her.
“Are you working now?”
“We were just confirming the livestream process for the day after tomorrow…”
Jiang Lai just wanted to break free from her sister-in-law’s hold as soon as possible.
Though Chi Yingyu’s embrace was burning hot, her body was even more restless at this moment, because the desires inside her hadn’t been satisfied and only accumulated deeper.
Just like before, it made Jiang Lai feel hotter and hotter.
Her body was growing increasingly empty, but she absolutely could not let her sister-in-law notice anything was wrong.
No matter how uncomfortable, she had to keep it inside.
!
Still, Jiang Lai struggled just enough. “Yingyu, dinner’s in the Thermal Lunchbox. It should still be warm now. You should go eat it quickly.”
As long as she could get her sister-in-law away for a while, Jiang Lai could try to ease the unbearable feelings stirring inside her.
But at this moment, she didn’t even expect relief while Chi Yingyu was nearby.
The best-case scenario was that even if it didn’t help, she could wipe herself off afterward.
Otherwise, the sticky feeling would be really uncomfortable.
Besides, Jiang Lai thought her excuse was foolproof. “If you don’t eat soon, it’ll get cold.”
“I already ate a little something at the office to tide me over. I’m not very hungry now.”
Chi Yingyu watched her brother-in-law settle back into his seat.
Jiang Lai’s warm hand had lingered in hers just moments ago.
Jiang Lai’s skin was very fair, usually giving off a delicate softness that made people want to cradle her gently in their palms.
But now Jiang Lai seemed to have a rosy filter over her, just looking at her felt suggestive.
Her voice earlier had been soft and gentle, and it was comforting to hear.
She was reluctant to leave Jiang Lai so soon.
More importantly, her brother-in-law was still facing Xu Ruobing—even if only via video.
It wasn’t certain what Xu Ruobing might do. Chi Yingyu wanted to keep watching from the sidelines.
“You can just pretend I don’t exist. I’m quite curious about how the livestream process will go anyway. I definitely won’t disturb you.”
Chi Yingyu deliberately raised her voice, so even Xu Ruobing on the other side of the video could hear her clearly.
Having someone watching made no difference to Xu Ruobing.
Jiang Lai had headphones on, so even if she kept using them, Chi Yingyu wouldn’t hear a thing.
But Jiang Lai was probably about to burst.
Although the video couldn’t perfectly show every detail of Jiang Lai’s face, her cheeks were flushed, and her eyes glossy, looking clearly unsatisfied.
Just looking at her was captivating enough to make Xu Ruobing feel warm herself.
But as soon as the thought crossed her mind, she turned and grabbed the remote to lower the room’s air conditioning temperature.
She needed a blast of cool air to cool down her heated body.
Since Jiang Lai was lonely and unable to satisfy her desires right now, Xu Ruobing couldn’t possibly enjoy these feelings alone.
She had to keep Jiang Lai company.
Chi Yingyu was truly a troublemaker…
Xu Ruobing knew exactly why Chi Yingyu insisted on staying to watch them work.
If she was really curious about the livestream process, she could just open an app on her phone and watch any random one.
No need to keep staring at them like this.
In the end, it was all just to prevent Xu Ruobing from doing something inappropriate.
Why not just be upfront about it instead of sneaking around like this?
Who exactly was she trying to warn?
Xu Ruobing was very displeased.
Chi Yingyu’s presence had almost ruined the entire atmosphere.
If Xu Ruobing could endure it now, what about Jiang Lai?
Though she hated to end the precious video call, it wasn’t worth ruining it over their petty conflict.
Under Chi Yingyu’s watchful eyes, Xu Ruobing simply gave Jiang Lai a few brief reminders before obediently ending the call.
But in the last moment, she still shot a resentful glare at Chi Yingyu.
The grievances she suffered today would be repaid sooner or later.
Even during those few short sentences, Chi Yingyu never let go of her brother-in-law’s hand.
Her fingers quietly slipped over and firmly squeezed his small hand, not releasing it until the video ended.
Jiang Lai closed the laptop and looked down at their hands.
Chi Yingyu finally had to let go, standing up as if she were a kid delighted by a successful prank, happily heading out to enjoy the dinner her brother-in-law had prepared for her.
Alone in the bedroom, Jiang Lai finally exhaled deeply.
She stiffened her aching body and stood up from the chair, feeling soreness in her waist and legs.
As for the sticky feeling from earlier, it had already dried up.
Jiang Lai walked to the bed, buried her face in her hands, and collapsed onto the soft mattress.
She hadn’t expected to react so easily.
Even though no one had touched her body, she was already so agitated.
Jiang Lai blushed and didn’t know whether Chi Yingyu’s arrival was a blessing or a curse.
She was grateful Chi Yingyu had stopped her from falling any further, but her unsatisfied body still protested.
Her feelings were extremely conflicted.
For now, Jiang Lai had no desire to continue.
The only thing she wanted was a quick shower to clean herself up.
The important Debut Broadcast was coming soon, and she had no time to dwell on messy emotions.
The Debut Broadcast was scheduled for 6:30 in the evening, but that didn’t mean Jiang Lai could arrive in the afternoon and relax.
There was a lot of preparation to do beforehand, so she had to go early in the morning to get everything ready.
Getting up early had been a habit for Jiang Lai since over ten years ago.
The only downside today was that Chi Yingyu didn’t have the breakfast her brother-in-law had made for her.
She had to fend for herself for all three meals—a small payback from Xu Ruobing.
The livestream would take place in another house Xu Ruobing kept solely for work purposes.
Because of her need to perform, Xu Ruobing sometimes exposed her living space to the public, but she didn’t want her private life revealed.
So she had a separate house set aside for these situations.
The house Xu Ruobing had taken Jiang Lai to before was her most private residence.
Jiang Lai living there was truly a Gold House for a Mistress.
