Are you trying to force me to become a star?

Chapter 89 The Old Lady's Sorrow

"Is your little brother home? Do you want your sister to come find you?"

Upon receiving Yang Mi's message and looking at her current location, Xu Jinyan understood: This older sister was planning a surprise attack.

The two haven't seen each other since the last villa party, and have only "communicated" through phone chats and video calls.

Unfortunately, the surprise she gave him today might turn into a shock he gave her.

He stood up and went to the bedroom first. When he returned to the living room, he said, "Grandma, a friend of mine heard that you twisted your back and came to see you. I'll go out and meet him."

The old lady glanced outside: "It's already dark, let's not let them come over!"

Xu Jinyan: "...She has to catch a flight tonight, and it just so happens to be on her way; she'll be arriving soon."

"Oh, come on, my back is all better now... You should go out and greet him."

As Xu Jinyan went out, she took out the prepared items from her spatial storage and exclaimed, "I can really speak fluently without thinking!"

……

……

Yang Mi looked at Xu Jinyan, who had just opened the passenger door and sat down, and was somewhat surprised. Was he in such a hurry?

After not seeing him for more than two months, she suddenly appeared without saying hello, wanting to give him a surprise, and it seems to have worked well.

A smile bloomed on her face as she was about to move closer.

"Wait a minute, did you bring a gift in your car?"

Xu Jinyan stopped her.

Yang Mi looked at her body in confusion: Isn't this it?

Xu Jinyan glanced at the black stockings on her legs, sighed, and tossed her a pair of pants: "My grandma hurt her back and is at my house right now. You came too suddenly; I told her you came to visit her."

Yang Mi: "..."

A line from a movie flashed through her mind: "Translate this, translate it! What the hell is a surprise?!"

What the hell is this called a surprise?!

After a period of intense emotional turmoil, she gradually calmed down.

She put on the pants that Xu Jinyan had specially brought for her, and then touched up her makeup in front of the mirror.

Upon opening the car door, she saw the gift box Xu Jinyan had prepared and thought to herself: He really is thoughtful in every way!

Then she asked worriedly, "Is Grandma's condition alright?"

"Don't worry, it's not serious."

If you had come a couple of days later, you might have already recovered.

The two went over their lines and then entered the villa together.

……

"..."

"..."

……

Seeing Xu Jinyan return after seeing the guests off, the old lady was genuinely worried.

She never expected that the person who came to "specifically see her" late at night would be a woman.

It wouldn't matter if it were anyone else, but the key point is... Yang Mi is already married.

As they say, old people are shrewd; in just over ten minutes, the old lady keenly sensed something amiss.

—The two of them have something to do!

Seeing her grandson sit down again, she said tactfully, "Jinyan, this must be Yang Mi, who was on 'Mushroom House' with you. She's a really pretty girl, it's just a pity she's already married."

Xu Jinyan nodded: "It's her, she even has a child."

The old lady looked at his nonchalant demeanor, her lips twitched, and then she sighed, "Speaking of children, I actually prefer you a bit more, unlike your brother, who's been mischievous since he was little!"

Xu Jinyan: "..."

In the last chapter, you complained that I was too honest!

He thought to himself how sharp the old lady's eyes were, and comforted her, "Grandma, don't worry, Sister Mi just wants to ask me to write a song for her."

"Besides, don't you know your grandson? He's been a moral role model in his class since he was little. How could he possibly go after a married woman?"

Then he silently added in his mind: I really didn't touch a married woman!

The old lady nodded with a look of relief, but inwardly she was worried: Is there anyone who comes to visit a patient wearing underwear?

Did she ruin some of her grandson's plans today?

She was unsure whether she should tell Wenqing about this discovery that she had made by accident.

The grandfather and grandson chatted for a long time, each lost in their own thoughts, before going back inside.

……

……

Yang Mi arrived at a nearby hotel, took a shower, and then lay down on the bed.

Recalling what had just happened, her face still felt hot; it was like meeting the parents.

She must have acted quite naturally at the time, after all, she's an actress, so fooling an old lady shouldn't have been a problem.

Fortunately, it was just his grandmother; otherwise, she really didn't know if she would have had the courage to go inside.

However, after calming down, she thought of:

What should she do if Xu Jinyan tells her directly that his grandmother is at home?

Did you leave alone in your car?

Should we take the initiative to visit the elderly?

It seems like neither of them is what I want.

Fortunately, Xu Jinyan made arrangements for her directly, choosing the most dignified way that also took the best into consideration for her feelings.

Just as she was lost in thought, she received a message from Xu Jinyan on WeChat:

"Where's your sister? Should your little brother come find you?"

Upon seeing this message, she could no longer contain her emotions and immediately sent her location: "Room 404".

Xu Jinyan knew her exact location, of course; it was the five-star hotel closest to the villa area.

So he left the house quietly without disturbing the old lady.

A dozen minutes later, Xu Jinyan circled the hotel to make sure there were no paparazzi or people who had a very negative feeling towards him before entering room 404.

At the same time, I also had some complaints in my mind: all that skill is being wasted on this.

As soon as he entered the door, Yang Mi came over and hugged him tightly.

Xu Jinyan looked down in surprise. What was wrong?

Before he could speak, she stood on tiptoe and kissed him.

As Xu Jinyan responded, she thought to herself: Let's talk about it later!

……

……

Done!

Xu Jinyan looked at Yang Mi nestled in his arms and was genuinely curious.

"Honey, would you like some plum juice?"

Yang Mi was immediately amused and patted him on the shoulder.

Her smile faded, and she said slowly, "I'll tell you in advance next time I come to see you."

Xu Jinyan shook her head: "No need for that. I quite like these kinds of surprises, it's just a pity..."

"What's a pity?"

"Too bad you weren't wearing stockings when we got to the hotel, hahaha."

"...Aren't you afraid I'll suddenly call you during your family gathering? What if your whole family is here today?"

"It's fine as long as the whole family is here. We can't let you come all this way and then drive back by yourself, can we? That would be too awful!"

Yang Mi looked up at him and asked softly, "Are you done? I'm going to put on my stockings!"

Xu Jinyan looked into her eyes, thought for a moment, and said, "Sister Mi, you seem a little tired?"

"...I've been feeling a bit tired lately."

"Didn't the bet go through? Why are you still so tired?"

"Sigh, you don't understand... I have too much work scheduled. Just recently, I had two movies, and later there's a music variety show called 'The Coming One,' and..."

Xu Jinyan sat up: "I've recently learned some new massage techniques, would you like me to help you relax?"

Yang Mi raised an eyebrow. Although she didn't know what he was going to do, she let him be.

But after a while, she found his massage... to be very comfortable.

"Actually, the reason my grandma is staying at my house is because I want to give her some back massages," Xu Jinyan said as he massaged her back.

"Oh...I see. Grandma probably...didn't notice anything amiss, right?"

"...No, after all, you're a professional actor."

"Well...that's good. Your massage...was indeed quite...professional."

"Thanks."

As she felt more and more massaged areas becoming increasingly sensitive, Yang Mi's face began to burn: You jerk, you really know how to play!

"Is it...almost done? I think...I think it's good enough."

"One last step:"

Xu Jinyan straddled her legs and used his thumb to massage along the meridians, slowly moving it along the tendons. He gradually applied pressure.

"This move is called... Little Dragon Scouts the Way!"

"……you!"
