Chapter 15

~5 min read 930 words

She was just about to ask when the housekeeper's voice came from outside: "Eldest Young Mistress, guests from your maiden family have arrived and wish to see you." The housekeeper searched room by room, calling out as he went.

Shi Yuke and Jiang Siwei stood in the magnificent, gold-gilded hall, feeling as though they didn't have enough eyes to take it all in.

The Shi Family could barely be considered second-tier in Jiangzhou City, and Jiang Siwei was Jiang Yadan's niece; the Jiang Family was several rungs lower than the Shi Family, so both of them were seeing such an imposing living room in reality for the first time.

Shi Yuke at least held the title of the most beautiful woman in Jiangzhou City and had seen more than Jiang Siwei, so even if she felt envy, jealousy, and hatred inside, she did not show it on her face.

She sat gracefully on the sofa, maintaining her usual elegance in front of outsiders.

But Jiang Siwei was not as "composed" as her eldest cousin; from the moment she entered this house, her eyeballs rolled around, constantly looking here and there.

The greed in her eyes was undisguised.

The servants looked at Jiang Siwei with disdain!

Shi Yuke was very pleased; since childhood, she had always been willing to bring Jiang Siwei along wherever she went.

With Jiang Siwei's shallowness and lack of class to set her off, it made her appear even more magnanimous and dignified.

Most importantly: Jiang Siwei's appearance was plain, which better highlighted her own beauty.

Unlike that dead girl Shi Youxuan, who was still so beautiful that people couldn't look away even after becoming a fool!

The dead girl came down from upstairs.

Shi Yuke rushed over enthusiastically and gave her a big hug: "Xuanxuan, I've missed you so much."

People who didn't know would definitely think the sisters had a very good relationship at their maiden home.

"I don't miss you." Shi Youxuan said flatly, not buying into her "enthusiasm."

……

Shi Yuke was stunned; in her memory, it was always Shi Youxuan who fawned over her, and she only needed to give her a pleasant look for her to be happy for a long time—there had never been a time when she was this cold.

And Jiang Siwei was already so angry that she prepared to vent for her eldest cousin; she rolled up her sleeves, ready to slap Shi Youxuan: "You stupid fool, my eldest cousin and I came to see you out of kindness, you should feel honored! What kind of attitude is this?"

"Ouch... it hurts, let go, it hurts!" Her thick wrist was pinched by the bodyguard with two fingers; he didn't seem to use much force, but Jiang Siwei's features were already twisted in pain, and cold sweat broke out on her face.

"Apologize to our Eldest Young Mistress." Sheng Hanyu had given instructions that when he was not at home, this household was to hold the Eldest Young Mistress in the highest regard.

Jiang Siwei had no choice but to apologize: "I'm sorry, Second Cousin, I won't dare to do it again."

The bodyguard released his fingers and stood to the side; she didn't dare to provoke anyone again.

Shi Yuke finally looked at Shi Youxuan properly; it was fine if she didn't look closely, but one look made her tremble with rage!

The composure and elegance she had been maintaining just now could barely be kept up, and her smile froze on her face, twitching.

Shi Youxuan was dressed from head to toe in top international luxury brands: her top was Chanel, her skirt was Louis Vuitton, and the slippers on her feet were from the British nobility—Manolo Blahnik.

The necklace hanging around Shi Youxuan's neck was Cartier, her bracelet was Van Cleef & Arpels, and her earrings were from Gucci...

Even the hair clip casually pinned to her bangs was a limited edition from Bvlgari.

Shi Yuke was green with envy; although she didn't own these things, she was extremely familiar with them.

Jiang Siwei was slightly better off in this regard, because she didn't recognize them at all!

Everything Shi Youxuan wore and had on her was a new release from this year, every single piece was a global limited edition, and those pieces of jewelry were not sold individually, but as complete sets.

Yet they were casually put on by a fool who didn't even know how to match them—what a waste of precious things! If only these all belonged to her, how wonderful that would be!

The greed and jealousy in the depths of Shi Yuke's eyes were hidden from the servants and bodyguards, but they were all seen by Shi Youxuan.

"Sister, your hair clip is crooked, let me straighten it for you."

The hair clip was taken into Shi Yuke's hands under the guise of helping, but she didn't want to put it back on Shi Youxuan; her eyes rolled as a plan formed: "Sister, this hair clip doesn't really match your hair color, why don't we swap?"

Shi Youxuan didn't object, so the gaudy hair clip on Shi Yuke's head was put onto hers!

"Hmm, it looks really good, this one suits you better."

Having taken advantage, Shi Yuke's smile became much more sincere, but soon she began to feel dissatisfied again; the fool still had so many good things, including those not worn on her body... she wanted them all!

"Sister, I haven't been to your room yet, would it be alright if I went to take a look?"
