Chapter 300 - 116 Sister Rivalry: Killing Two Birds with One Stone_4
The woman beneath him was simply a temptress, especially that place, Kang Jinse was incomparable to her. He suddenly recalled what He An had once said... His movements abruptly stiffened.
Kang Jinxian’s voice was like a kitten’s, "Brother... what’s wrong with you?"
Yun Shen’s eyes in the darkness were fiercely bright, like a beast ready to devour its prey, instilling Kang Jinxian with terror. His movements became suddenly more intense, as if he wanted to tear Kang Jinxian apart and consume her, "You can only belong to me..."
Kang Jinxian slowly closed her eyes, drowning in the tidal wave of desire.
——
The next morning, Kang Jinse woke up with her eyes red and swollen, and it took much makeup to cover it up.
At the breakfast table, Yun Shen was nowhere to be seen, and she couldn’t help but curse under her breath, how he must not want to face her.
At this moment, Kang Jinxian, who was dressed in a white dress and looked pure and delicate, walked over. Seeing the haggard expression on Kang Jinse’s face, she couldn’t help but ask, "Sister, did you not sleep well last night?"
Kang Jinse sighed, "Don’t even mention it."
Yun Shu and Ji Yunya had not yet arrived, and there were only two people at the breakfast table. Kang Jinse looked at Kang Jinxian and couldn’t help but feel envious.
Her little sister might not be as beautiful as her, but she was younger, with better skin, and had an air of purity about her, the type that men probably liked.
The more she looked, the sadder she felt, "Your brother must have someone else on the side."
Kang Jinxian feigned surprise on the surface, but inwardly she was smug, "What? How could brother do such a thing? Sister, you must be mistaken. He’s not that kind of person. If he wanted to find another woman, why would he have dragged on for ten years?"
Kang Jinse, looking at the pure image of the girl before her, shook her head, "You’re too naive, you don’t understand men. Men are always chasing after the new and getting tired of the old. Your brother, he despises me for growing old." As she spoke, tears welled up in her eyes.
A slight smirk formed at the corner of Kang Jinxian’s mouth as she took Kang Jinse’s hand to comfort her, "Sister, don’t worry, no woman can take your place. You’ve been by brother’s side for over a decade. Even without love, you will always have a place by his side. Don’t sell yourself short. You’re only thirty-five, not old at all."
Those words were a stab to the heart. First, they pointed out that Yun Shen didn’t love her at all. Over a decade of companionship couldn’t withstand another woman’s invasion. Second, in front of an eighteen-year-old girl in the prime of her youth, thirty-five wasn’t considered old?
Unfortunately, Kang Jinse didn’t catch the underlying meaning of Kang Jinxian’s words. Instead, she felt they reached deep into her heart, and she couldn’t help but hold on to Kang Jinxian’s hand, "Ah Xian, you are all I have left. Mother died early, and it has been just us two sisters fending for ourselves. I can’t lose you too."
Kang Jinxian hugged her gently, with a hint of mockery flickering in her eyes.
"Sister, I will always be with you."
If she had felt any sympathy or guilt towards her sister in the past, she wasn’t going to be so foolish now. Her brother didn’t love her – he loved himself.
So, my dear sister, you’d better face reality. Given our sibling relationship, perhaps when the day comes, I may show you some mercy.
Kang Jinse suddenly gritted her teeth, "I know who’s taken your brother from me."
Kang Jinxian’s body stiffened abruptly, "Who?"
She didn’t notice her fingertips were trembling slightly.
As beautiful as her fantasies were, she was still not mentally prepared for the reality.
"It’s your brother’s secretary, that cheap woman. She’s always strutting around me, as if she wants the whole world to know. Your brother must have been bewitched by her; otherwise, why would he be so reluctant to touch me now?"
"That wench, daring to seduce my man, I’ll tear her face apart." Although she said this, she didn’t dare to actually do anything.
Kang Jinxian frowned secretly, having heard about her brother’s secretary — a voluptuous beauty.
Could it be that her brother was really involved with her...
No...that can’t be possible, Kang Jinxian desperately denied it but then relaxed, thinking even if it were true, what of it? It wasn’t uncommon for men to play the field, as long as he held her in his heart, that was all that mattered.
Glancing at Kang Jinse, who was on the verge of rage, Kang Jinxian narrowed her eyes.
"Sister, she’s just a secretary, she can’t overstep you. No matter what, you’ve shared a bed with brother for over a decade. Though lacking in title, the affection is there. A secretary, when all is said and done, is just an employee. Even if you get rid of her, what can brother do to you?"
Despite having never met that secretary, Kang Jinxian could sense that she was a formidable rival. By leveraging Kang Jinse’s hands to get rid of her, she would kill two birds with one stone.
