The satin-faced embroidery was unrivaled in its exquisite craftsmanship, bringing the dragon and phoenix pattern to life, as if it were alive. Suddenly, Kang Jinse grabbed the pillow and brought it to her nose for a careful sniff, and her expression changed drastically. She tossed the pillow away in alarm. My God, there was actually musk on it. ᴛhis chapter is ᴜpdated by noᴠelfire.net She had actually been using this pillow for a year. The scent was very faint, mixing with her own fragrance such that it was undetectable. If it weren’t for the dream she just had that reminded her of the scent of musk, she would have never noticed it. Musk wouldn’t do much harm with short-term contact, but with long-term exposure, it could cause miscarriage at the least, or infertility at the worst. She wasn’t infertile, her child was directly deformed... Kang Jinse’s face suddenly turned very ugly. The pillow had been a gift from Kang Jinxian, who said that she had embroidered it herself to wish her and Yun Shen a century of happiness together. Could it have been Ah Xian? No, it must have been someone using her, wanting to turn her and her sister against each other, but she suddenly recalled the night Ah Xian chased someone out of Yun Shen’s study, a piece of logic she had overlooked until now. It was nearly midnight at the time; why choose such a moment to talk? She didn’t want to doubt Ah Xian; she was her own sister, the person she trusted with all her heart. If even she betrayed her, what was she to do? Details she had deliberately ignored before were now surging to her mind. She suddenly remembered something Ji Yunya had once said, "That person is right beside you—" So Ji Yunya had known all along, while she was played for a fool. The more she thought about how Kang Jinxian acted in front of her and how she deliberately tried to shift the blame onto Yan Yuzhen to divert attention, the more she admired Kang Jinxian’s devious efforts. Anger clenched Kang Jinse’s fists tight, her body trembling violently. She had wholeheartedly cared for her, but in secret, she had tried to harm her and even seduced her brother-in-law, utterly shameless to the extreme. She remembered how she had slipped in the bathroom a few days ago. Yes, in this house, other than Kang Jinxian, who else could have arranged it? She was in such a hurry to make her move. Well, if you’re ruthless, don’t blame me for being heartless. Kang Jinse wished she could rush out right now and tear her face apart, but she still had her wits about her and knew that such an act would only make Kang Jinxian even more insolent. She lay back down and called Su Ye in the middle of the night, as Su Ye was asleep, her voice still drowsy. "Jinse, what’s wrong?" "Meet me at the café tomorrow morning, I have something I need you to do." Su Ye sensed the severity in her tone and agreed without a fuss. The next morning, Su Ye met a low-key dressed Kang Jinse in the coffee shop, looking haggard and aged by several years, unrecognizable as the once brilliantly beautiful National Fairy. Lowering her sunglasses, Kang Jinse sat down opposite her, "How have you been recently?" With a smile, Su Ye said, "Fine, and you, Jinse? Your whole demeanor has changed with the pregnancy." Kang Jinse offered a cold smirk, stirring her coffee, as Su Ye fretted, "Jinse, you’re pregnant, you can’t drink coffee." Taking a sip, Kang Jinse remarked, "Hmm, it tastes good." Su Ye was somewhat stunned. Without explaining, Kang Jinse changed the subject, "Gu Cheng from Huang Ye, you have some connection with him, don’t you?" Caught off guard by the sudden mention, Su Ye hesitated, then whispered, "He’s my ex-boyfriend." Kang Jinse smiled, "That makes things easier." She took out a stack of CNY from her bag and pushed it toward Su Ye, "Take this money, I need you to do something for me." Quickly refusing with a wave of her hand, Su Ye said, "If you command it, Jinse, that’s all I need, I can’t take this money." "Money talks, and you’ll need it to get things done. As long as you can get the job done, I won’t let you down." After hesitating, Su Ye replied, "Then thank you, Jinse. What do you need me to do?" Looking up in disbelief, Su Ye inquired, "Jinse... you...?" Narrowing her eyes, Kang Jinse responded, "Is it too hard to do?" Shaking her head, Su Ye said, "No, you’ve looked after me for so long, Jinse, I’m happy to do something for you, but she’s your sister—" Kang Jinse laughed coldly, "She betrayed me, this is the price she has to pay." After a pause, Su Ye added, "Jinse, there’s something I’ve been holding back for a long time. I’ve wanted to tell you for a while but feared you couldn’t accept it. It’s about Miss Jinxian, I don’t know if I should speak."
