It wasn't until the deal fell through that I discovered all the young ladies were yanderes.

She might hate you even more...

And coincidentally, Bai Xiaoxiao was exceptionally beautiful...

So the girl became even fiercer. She pointed to the messy bed and said, "Can't you see how big this bed is?"

Bai Xiaoxiao was startled, and her beautiful eyes instantly filled with tears. She quickly took two steps back and apologized, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, don't be angry."

Then Bai Xiaoxiao turned her head and glanced at the bed full of clutter, confirming that it was indeed her bed, and then…

o (╥﹏╥) o

Meanwhile, things weren't going smoothly for Anjia either...

41. Flowers

An Ningying was standing opposite An Ruxue at the An family home. The two sisters were staring at each other.

To be precise, only An Ningying was staring at An Ruxue with a displeased expression, while An Ruxue seemed to be used to it and didn't care about An Ningying's expression at all.

She poured herself a cup of tea, took a small sip, and then looked at An Ningying, who was still staring at her. An Ruxue sighed.

"Even your older sister would be hurt by your eyes, Ningying."

An Ruxue's voice was still soft and cold, but when she spoke to An Ningying, there seemed to be a hint of helplessness in her tone.

An Ningying didn't care about An Ruxue's words at all. After listening to them, she felt no emotion and even wanted to laugh a little, so she sneered.

"hehe."

An Ruxue sighed, her voice cool but still betraying a hint of unhappiness: "My sister has been studying abroad for so long, don't you miss me?"

It's quite charming that this icy beauty suddenly has a melancholic tone, creating a kind of endearing contrast. Unfortunately, the person talking to her doesn't care about these things at all.

An Ningying poured herself a cup of tea, took a sip, and then complained, "I just feel that your study abroad time went by way too fast. How come you're back so soon?"

An Ruxue paused in her tea-drinking, glanced at An Ningying who looked displeased, and said, "Do you really hate your older sister that much? She was so good to you when you were little."

An Ningying should have kept quiet until she heard An Ruxue's words. She immediately exploded: "What? You were nice to me when we were little?"

"You mean you're good to me? It means you used to steal my things every day when we were kids—toys, food, and even more so, friends?"

An Ningying gritted her teeth and looked angrily at An Ruxue, who shrugged.

"Because I like those things too..."

"You think you can just take it because you like it?"

"Otherwise what? Silly sister, why not hold onto what you like tightly? What if someone else takes it away from you?"

An Ningying looked at An Ruxue with disdain. Her older sister had been bullying her since they were little. Whatever she wanted, if she liked it, An Ruxue would definitely get it.

When An Ningying was little, if An Ruxue took a liking to one of An Ningying's toys, young An Ningying would be tricked by her older sister and happily run off to buy it.

He excitedly gave her his toys.

Then, a few days later, the toy appeared in the trash can.

Because An Ruxue felt that she would eventually stop liking it, she might as well destroy it while she still liked it, so that her feelings for this thing would always remain as liking.

Flowers will wither, so you can simply pick them and soak them in a nutrient solution.

But what if one day you don't like this flower anymore? Wouldn't it become an eyesore?

So the flower should disappear after it blooms...

Isn't it enough to just remember that it once bloomed?

After An Ningying discovered that the things she liked were being carelessly thrown away by An Ruxue, she grew further and further away from her older sister.

An Ningying knew what An Ruxue wanted to do after returning: she wanted power, the power of the An family. She was the one with the most right to inherit the family business, so it was only reasonable for her to inherit it.

but…

It seems that her parents don't want to hand over their wealth to An Ruxue; they seem to prefer to give it to her. An Ningying doesn't actually care about money or anything like that.

but…

If the opponent is An Ruxue...

An Ningying really disliked An Ruxue because after she broke off their friendship, An Ruxue became even more outrageous, even trying to steal away her friends.

Those friends were so good to me...

But An Ningying felt that her parents were becoming increasingly strange...

They were strange and contradictory. They wanted to learn a lot themselves, but didn't want her to learn too much. It was very odd; they were like people with split personalities.

So the arguments were constant, which is why she was quite vulnerable at that time, and it was during that time that she met Su Mengkong.

and so…

Is she going to try and take it from me again...?

An Ruxue took another sip of tea, glanced at An Ningying sitting opposite her, and sighed softly.

Silly sister is just silly sister.

At this point, hadn't you realized what kind of people your parents were?

Still don't understand why they want to hand over their family business to you?

Because you're stupid, and easy to control.

Harmful…

An Ruxue suddenly seemed to remember something. She put her teacup down on the table, then suddenly moved closer to An Ningying, and said with a smile:

"Why are you so hostile towards me? It's been so long since we sisters have seen each other, and you haven't replied to my messages at all. I can't even keep track of your life anymore."

"I'm really curious about your life. Have you... found a guy you like lately?"

An Ruxue had a smiling expression on her face, her eyes full of curiosity, as if she was genuinely curious about her younger sister's life.

However, An Ruxue's smile was too formulaic. Every smile was just right, without any superfluous expression. It seemed that this smile was only meant to hide something deeper.

So, little sister, what are your feelings for my things, for that "him"?

What if you fall for her too?

Oh dear, that really puts my sister in a difficult position, hehe...

Really are…

This is so exciting...

"Tell your sister, do you have a crush on anyone?"

Ten minutes later, An Ruxue looked at An Ningying, whose face was flushed, with a smile. She sat back down with satisfaction and took another sip of tea.

What An Ningying didn't see was just how profound her sister's gaze was when she lowered her head to drink water...

That's why I said you're a silly little sister...

After getting the answer she wanted, An Ruxue became happy, and the coldness on her face faded considerably.

The housekeeper came over at this moment and said to An Ningying and An Ruxue, "Miss, Second Miss, the meal is ready. Madam and Master are waiting for you."

After the housekeeper brought An Ningying and An Ruxue to the dining table, he left. The An family did not have the rule of not speaking while eating or sleeping, and the four of them chatted.

The conversation mostly revolved around An Ruxue's life abroad, but under someone's deliberate guidance, the topic suddenly shifted to where An Ruxue would live after returning to China.

An Ruxue's mother didn't actually want An Ruxue to live with her, so she had been subtly hinting to An Ruxue to live outside.

“Ru Xue, I have two other properties outside. You’ve just returned to China, so Mom will transfer the ownership to you in a couple of days.”

Subtext.

The property will be transferred to you; you can live there now.

The dinner table fell silent for a moment, filled with a strange atmosphere.

An Ruxue feigned hesitation, but a hint of satisfaction and a smile shone in her eyes. She elegantly took a bite of her food, then looked at An Ningying and spoke with a beaming smile:

"No need, Mom. It's too much trouble to go through the property transfer. I'll just go live with Ningying. That way, it'll be easier for us to take care of each other. I have so much to say to her since I just got back to China."

"what?"

"Alright, alright, let's settle on that then."

The decision to have An Ruxue and An Ningying live together was made so hastily that An Ningying is still somewhat bewildered.

An Ruxue smiled, a very happy smile, as she looked forward to seeing him again.

What is he like now?

My own flower, forever blooming, unique and irreplaceable…

...

42. Always love Brother Su.

Bai Xiaoxiao is very anxious right now.

She felt that her roommate didn't like her.

But she didn't know what to do.

They already disliked themselves somewhat, but after taking off their masks, they became extremely, extremely self-disliking...

Bai Xiaoxiao was very beautiful, more beautiful than they could have imagined.

For example, they initially thought Bai Xiaoxiao was just an ordinary beauty based on her figure.

It's the kind of look that's pretty, but not ridiculously so.

There are actually many people like this in school, although they weren't particularly jealous at first.

But they were stunned when Bai Xiaoxiao took off her mask…

Damn, she's even a little bit prettier than Lin Qingmeng and An Ningying...

The main difference is that the three of them have completely different styles. Lin Qingmeng is charming, the kind of beautiful woman you want to pin down on the bed and do naughty things to all day.

An Ningying has the sweetness of first love, the kind of beauty that evokes your most beautiful memories with every smile and frown.
