- Chapter 35.1 - Beautiful Aunt vs. Fake Heiress
This must be the plot in the small world where the original host was kicked out of the Shen family.
After the true heiress, Shen Yun, returned, the original host, fearing she would be thrown out of the Shen family, followed the advice of a gold-digging man and drugged Shen Yishu. She threatened Shen Yishu to help her stay in the Shen family, promising to resolve Shen Yishu’s current predicament in return.
But she underestimated Shen Yishu’s ruthlessness.
Shen Yishu promised the original host that if she helped her, she could let her stay in the Shen family. However, the original host never imagined that Shen Yishu was always a merciless person someone who could even harm her own niece.
Let alone a fake heiress with no blood relation.
The original host helped Shen Yishu as soon as she made the promise, but the moment Shen Yishu resolved her immediate troubles, she kicked the original host out of bed and out of the Shen family.
Not only that, Shen Yishu blocked all of the original host’s future paths, making it difficult for her to even find a job to support herself.
It could be said that the original host ultimately died of poverty.
One has to admit, it was quite tragic.
Shi Xingrao slowly lay back on the sofa.
Cat Ears let out a sharp, piercing sound, “Sis, sis, why are you lying down? Aren’t you going to help Shen Yishu?”
Shi Xingrao wasn’t feeling too well either. She closed her eyes to rest, “Help her? Help her so she can kick me out of the Shen family and leave me to wander the streets?”
Cat Ears fell silent. It seemed that was indeed the case.
Shen Yishu clenched the sheets, her cold and stunning face damp with sweat, yet she stubbornly held on. It seemed she had underestimated Shi Xingrao’s ambition. Merely allowing Shi Xingrao to stay in the Shen family wasn’t enough to satisfy her.
Shen Yishu had only one thought: once she got out of this, she would make Shi Xingrao regret everything she had done today.
Shen Yishu sneered, “What else do you want? To marry me and share the Shen family with me?”
Shi Xingrao still didn’t respond to Shen Yishu.
The physical effects of the drug made her body tremble uncomfortably. Shi Xingrao clutched the sofa and curled up in the corner.
The original host hadn’t actually intended to climb into Shen Yishu’s bed but was schemed against by the gold-digging man and ended up drinking the drugged wine.
If the original host hadn’t slept with Shen Yishu, Shen Yishu might have only kicked her out of the Shen family. But by sleeping with her, she had severed all her own escape routes.
Shi Xingrao curled up there like a small, insecure animal.
Though she made no movements, Shen Yishu could see a sliver of pale skin on her neck, half of her face flushed red, her hair disheveled. Her half-open eyes glistened with moisture as she struggled to breathe from the discomfort, her chest rising and falling rapidly. Shen Yishu’s already dry throat felt even drier.
For some reason, she felt that Shi Xingrao today was different from before. Originally, she had only intended to use Shi Xingrao as a tool, but now, Shen Yishu narrowed her eyes. Perhaps she didn’t have to drive Shi Xingrao out of the Shen family. It might not be a bad idea to keep her as a lover.
Someone who only wanted to climb into her bed, who had no feelings for her making her an unseen lover wouldn’t be too unfair to Shi Xingrao.
But it seemed Shi Xingrao wasn’t very interested in her. Or perhaps, under the same drugged influence, it was more accurate to say that Shi Xingrao was restraining something, still scheming to gain more benefits?
Shen Yishu thought coldly, but did Shi Xingrao even deserve it?
Forced to lift her head by Shen Yishu’s grip on her chin, Shi Xingrao struggled to open her eyes. Her entire body felt weak, her breaths coming out warm, yet her gaze held a hint of innocence. “Auntie…”
That word “Auntie” snapped Shen Yishu back to her senses a little.
Could it be that Shi Xingrao wasn’t the one who drugged her? Then who was it? Shen Yun, or the man Shen Yun brought back?
Shen Yishu’s eyes turned icy. She had never suffered such a loss being manipulated without even knowing who was behind it.
Once suspicion took root, it would be difficult for that opportunistic man to regain Shen Yishu’s trust.
While Shen Yishu was lost in thought, trying to figure out who had set her up, Shi Xingrao closed her eyes again. “See? Give Shen Yishu something to think about, and you don’t even need to help her anymore. She’s so close to me now, but she doesn’t have the mind to sleep with me.”
Cat Ears: “…”
Truly a ruthless boss. Even in this state, she’s completely focused on figuring out who’s behind it all.
The next second, however, Shi Xingrao’s chin was lifted again. Shen Yishu looked at her with a dangerous glint in her eyes. “Help me, or be kicked out of the Shen family. Choose one.”
Shi Xingrao blinked slowly, her tone still innocent. “Does Auntie really want Raorao to help you?”
Calling her “Auntie” over and over made Shen Yishu feel as though she were doing something immoral, even though she and Shi Xingrao weren’t related by blood.
Shen Yishu bit the tip of her tongue lightly. “Don’t call me Auntie.”
The girl seemed a little wronged, yet inexplicably obedient. “If I don’t call you Auntie, what should I call you?”
It sounded more like she was saying, “If I don’t call you Auntie, I’ll have no home, no family left.”
Like a little abandoned puppy.
Shen Yishu stared deeply at the girl. “Shi Xingrao, if you help me, you’ll still be part of the Shen family. I won’t abandon you.”
She could reluctantly allow Shi Xingrao to remain in the Shen family as the second young miss.
Only then did Shi Xingrao timidly nod. “Auntie, you have to keep your word. You can’t abandon Raorao.”
Seeing Shi Xingrao nod, Shen Yishu suddenly felt it wasn’t as interesting anymore. Even under the influence of the drug, her urgency had faded. She liked obedience, but she also liked a little defiance.
Cat Ears watched the fluctuating interest value in the system backend, feeling a bit confused. This female lead was rather unpredictable.
Three hours later,
Cat Ears was exhausted from exchanging emotional points. When she turned to look, Shi Xingrao was already asleep, while Shen Yishu was bent over a desk, solving a Sudoku puzzle. Shi Xingrao had used her emotional points to exchange for the highest-difficulty Sudoku book in the system space for Shen Yishu, along with an antidote that gradually eased the effects of the drug.
The more Shen Yishu worked on the Sudoku, the more alert she became, and her sense of pleasure steadily rose.
Once she was sure Shen Yishu had lost interest in her, Shi Xingrao took the antidote herself and went to bed.
Cat Ears was stunned. “You’re just going to sleep in the ruthless boss’s bed like that?”
What if she has nowhere to sleep later? Aren’t you afraid she’ll kill you?
Shi Xingrao blinked innocently. “How could that be? My beautiful, kind Auntie would never be so cruel.”
Cat Ears: “…”
Which part of “kind” or “good” has anything to do with the female lead?
Shi Xingrao had already closed her eyes and fallen asleep.
The first light of dawn filtered faintly through the heavy curtains, the morning chill sending a shiver through the air. On the bed, the girl curled up, burying herself deeper under the covers. Shen Yishu sat in a chair, studying the girl’s sleeping face, unsure how long she had been watching.
When Cat Ears peeked in and saw the woman staring intently at Shi Xingrao, her expression gave nothing away, yet Cat Ears couldn’t help but feel a creeping unease. Who wouldn’t be unsettled by someone watching them sleep?
It had been continuously exchanging emotional values in the background, assuming Shen Yishu was still solving Sudoku. But it turned out she was watching Shi Xingrao. Could simply watching her generate so much emotional value?
It seemed Shen Yishu was genuinely intrigued by her host.
Suddenly, the sound of a key turning in the lock echoed from the door. Only then did Shen Yishu lift her gaze, slowly shifting her attention back to Shi Xingrao’s face. A fleeting expression perhaps disappointment, or something else crossed her features.
So it really wasn’t Shi Xingrao.
Yesterday, they had been unable to leave because the door was locked. Otherwise, she might not have even considered targeting Shi Xingrao.
Her niece didn’t seem particularly interested in her only in staying with the Shen family. Yet, it didn’t quite feel that way.
But staying with the Shen family and being with her weren’t mutually exclusive. In fact, sleeping with her could have given Shi Xingrao a stronger bargaining chip to remain.
Shen Yishu pressed her fingers to her temples, perplexed. What exactly was Shi Xingrao thinking?
It had been a long time since Shen Yishu found someone so difficult to read.
After washing up and changing, Shen Yishu stepped out of her room, ready to head to the office. Being locked in the room had already cost her too much time today. “Aunt Chen,” she said, “I won’t be having breakfast at home.”
No sooner had she spoken than a vibrant young face appeared in her line of sight. The boy, Yang Xiao, was around eighteen or nineteen, full of youthful energy. He had returned to the Shen family with Shen Yun.
Yang Xiao extended a breakfast package toward her, deliberately revealing a burn on his hand from splattering oil. “Sis, you should still have breakfast, no matter what. I prepared this for you can eat it on the way.”
Shen Yishu’s gaze briefly dropped to his hand before shifting away, her tone icy. “No need. And don’t call me ‘sis.'”
After Shen Yishu finished speaking, Aunt Chen moved to clean her room. Without accepting the breakfast Yang Xiao offered, Shen Yishu instead turned back to Aunt Chen and instructed, “There’s no need to clean my room today.”
With that, she left the Shen residence, not sparing Yang Xiao another glance.
The moment Shen Yishu was gone, Yang Xiao crushed the sandwich in his hand through its packaging, squeezing it with furious force. Don’t clean the room? Afraid of disturbing Shi Xingrao?
He had underestimated this fake heiress. Yang Xiao let out a cold laugh. Of course, someone on the verge of being kicked out would have no shortage of tricks to win people over.
