"Tang Yue, I’ve always wanted to meet you, but never had the chance. I am Lian Qingqing, Lian Qingyang’s twin sister." Lian Qingqing introduced herself with a smile, extending her slender white hand, her pretty nails painted bright red, matching her red lips perfectly. "Hello." Tang Yue extended her hand and gently shook hers. Tang Yue’s hands were also delicate from not doing much physical work, her clean nails were bare, exhibiting a healthy pink hue. As their hands met, both of their hands looked very beautiful. Lian Qingqing was charmingly coquettish, her voice sweet and soft. Even her gaze carried flirtatiousness; even as a woman, one could feel that Lian Qingqing was a very charismatic person. Not to mention Lian Qingqing was very talented, reportedly a jewelry designer too. "So, this is the first time you met?" Shen Yunfei exclaimed as if he had discovered a new continent. "Indeed, and age-wise, Tang Yue is actually my older sister, half-sisters sharing the same father, only a half-year apart," Lian Qingqing smiled wryly. "By seniority, you should actually call me ’sister’." Tang Yue’s gaze was clear, her eyes flickered as she listened to Lian Qingqing, reminding her of Lian He’s betrayal towards her mother Zhang Hualian. If it weren’t for her mother fighting death to give birth to her, Lian He... Tang Yue thought a lot, but ultimately, she averted her gaze, turned around to open the door, and said, "Qingyang, you and your sister have not seen each other for a long time, there must be a lot to talk about. I won’t disturb you." With that said, Tang Yue, holding a long-eared rabbit, had just entered the door when Wu Xin immediately stopped Lian Qingyang. "Sister Xiao Yue, we agreed to have a French dinner together tonight," Lian Qingyang shouted at Tang Yue’s retreating figure. Wu Xin just shut the door, locking Lian Qingyang out, giving him the cold shoulder. "Qingyang, you always say that Sister Xiao Yue treats you well, but now it seems, she treats you just so-so, even giving you the cold shoulder," Lian Qingqing said, seemingly sympathizing with Lian Qingyang. "Come on, Qingyang, I’ll treat you to a French dinner." "No thanks." Lian Qingyang pushed aside Lian Qingqing’s hand unhappily, glared fiercely at Shen Yunfei and said, "Shen Yunfei, let’s have a spar." "It’s almost dinner time." Shen Yunfei’s belly growled at the mention of a French dinner. Yet, Lian Qingyang didn’t care about all that, grabbing Shen Yunfei to start sparring. Thanks to Bai Qing’s training, Lian Qingyang’s skills had greatly improved. Previously only able to draw with Shen Yunfei, now he was easily defeating him, continuously knocking Shen Yunfei down and even landing another punch on his face. "You’ve gone far enough, Lian Qingyang, don’t you know not to hit the face when fighting?" Shen Yunfei could barely move his mouth without feeling pain, blood trickling down his lip. He used to think he was skilled, considering small thieves nothing. Now, not much time had passed. He couldn’t beat Wu Xin, that was understandable – there’s always someone better. But Lian Qingyang, who had always been on his level, had abruptly started to overpower him single-handedly; Shen Yunfei felt indignant, not to mention Lian Qingyang had hit his face. A rage arose from within Shen Yunfei, and they started fighting again. Lian Qingqing tried to intervene a few times, but after failing to stop them, she simply opened the door and sat on the sofa inside drinking coffee. They usually fought anyway, Lian Qingqing thought it was normal. "Yunfei, your face..." Lian Qingqing checked the time, and when she came out, she saw Shen Yunfei lying on the ground, his face beaten to a pulp, screaming in pain. Lian Qingyang was relatively better; only his left cheek had turned blue, and he was standing against the wall for support. "Shen Yunfei, let me tell you, don’t just casually tell others about my whereabouts," Lian Qingyang warned. Lian Qingqing immediately looked stern and said, "Lian Qingyang, we are siblings, am I an outsider?" "Lian Qingqing, we only have that little bit of blood relation left," Lian Qingyang sneered, casually wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, he would never forget what Lian Qingqing did back then. "Hmph, no matter what, I’m still your sister." Lian Qingqing frowned and helped Shen Yunfei into the room. Shen Yunfei’s injuries were external, going to the hospital would only mean getting disinfected, which could easily be done at home. With his face , Shen Yunfei was too embarrassed to even go to the hospital. Once they left, Lian Qingyang went to knock on Tang Yue’s door, with a pitiful tone he said, "Sister Xiao Yue, I’ve been bullied, and you don’t even care about me." The door opened instantly. Lian Qingyang took the opportunity to squeeze in and said, "I knew Sister Xiao Yue cared about me. Look, my face is all blue." "You got someone beaten to a pulp," Tang Yue curled her lips as she took out a freshly cooked egg, peeled it, and applied it to his face, saying, "Lian Qingyang, you and Lian Qingqing are twins, she came over, did you really have to end up fighting Shen Yunfei like that? You’re not a little kid anymore who fights over things." Eyebrows furrowed, Tang Yue murmured as she looked at the bruise on his face. "Sister Xiao Yue, I actually wanted to come and stay with you for a few days, who knew she would show up," Lian Qingyang spoke without considering Lian Qingqing as his real sister. Tang Yue was puzzled and wanted to ask something, but ultimately, she didn’t ask. "Sister Xiao Yue, Lian Qingqing is not what she seems on the surface, be careful around her, keep your distance," Lian Qingyang couldn’t help but advise, then turned to Wu Xin and said, "Wu Xin, protecting Sister Xiao Yue is your duty, you can’t relax at all. You have to stay close to Sister Xiao Yue and make sure nothing happens." Hearing this, Tang Yue rolled her eyes but felt deep down that something significant must have happened between Lian Qingyang and Lian Qingqing as siblings; otherwise, why would their relationship be so bad? ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝⚫𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖⚫𝕟𝕖𝕥 This is not like siblings at all, more like enemies. "Qingqing, be gentle." "Ah, Lian Qingyang really is too harsh, ruining my handsome face, how am I supposed to meet people now?" From the time Shen Yunfei began applying medication, he never stopped cursing, especially cursing Lian Qingyang. "Qingqing, Lian Qingyang is too outrageous towards you; you are his real sister, yet he calls a half-sister so affectionately and treats you so coldly, it’s too much," Shen Yunfei complained about Lian Qingyang. Lian Qingqing sighed and said, "That’s just how Qingyang is, as his sister, I can’t hold it against him, but honestly, I’m really worried." Lian Qingqing’s brows furrowed together, her face was covered with delicate makeup, and as soon as the worried emotion appeared, Shen Yunfei immediately asked, "Worried about what?"
