Chapter 20: The Fake Heiress of the Wealthy Family (Part 20)

Shen Yi, that madwoman, had said such words, and she would definitely follow through.

How could Shi Xu’s poor home withstand it?

Shen Yi watched Shen Ke’s tearful appearance, released her grip on the back of Shen Ke’s neck, and gently patted her back. “Good child.”

Shen Ke clenched her ten fingers tightly, tears dripping steadily onto her thighs, soaking the dark blue jeans.

Shen Yi always did this—using her expressionless face to say words that no one dared resist, making possessive moves.

It expanded the fear in Shen Ke’s heart to its limit.

“I don’t like sitting on your lap.” Shen Ke said with sobs.

Her fair skin and red lips made her look pitifully alluring when she cried, carrying an intensely seductive desire.

This desire wasn’t deliberate but leaked out unintentionally, captivating people.

Shen Yi blinked lightly, her gaze deep. She asked, “Why?” Her voice already carried a hint of hoarseness.

Shen Ke didn’t notice. She lifted her head to face Shen Yi, her plump lips also stained with tears, wet and glossy.

She looked exceptionally soft.

Shen Yi’s gaze fell on them, watching those red lips open and close, the sticky tone laced with sobs entering her ears intermittently, making her heart pound fiercely.

“Sis—sister, your legs are so hard, my—waaah, my butt hurts.” It didn’t actually hurt, but she didn’t dare yell loudly at Shen Yi. She could only express her reluctance in this pathetic way.

If it were Shi Xu, she definitely wouldn’t make her do things she didn’t like.

She could even yell loudly, and Shi Xu wouldn’t scold her.

Shen Yi’s expression darkened slightly. She had passed the age of blushing and racing heartbeats, but looking at Shen Ke’s cheeks wet with tears right now, her heartbeat was unprecedentedly intense.

She wanted—to have her.

Shen Yi reached out with both hands. One pressed the back of Shen Ke’s head, the other covered Shen Ke’s lips.

Her cold fingers slid across. Shen Ke was so scared that her tears flowed even more fiercely.

Was she going to kiss her again?

Every time Shen Yi touched her lips, the next step was a kiss.

Shen Yi’s kisses were so forceful that she couldn’t breathe. They weren’t good at all.

Though she got wet every time, that was just a physiological reaction!

Shen Ke pushed the thoughts from her mind, closed her eyes tightly, her tear-soaked lashes trembling violently. Her resistance leaked from her expression.

Resistance? Shen Yi stared quietly for a moment, then finally released her hand and dragged Shen Ke by the waist to get her off her lap.

She really liked watching Shen Ke cry—beautiful and enticing.

But she didn’t want to see resistance toward her on Shen Ke’s face.

Perhaps, she liked Shen Ke more than she had imagined.

She wanted to kiss Shen Ke crazily, bite her lips, entwine her soft tongue, ravage her wet hot mouth completely, and cover it with her own scent.

But in the end, reason prevailed, suppressing this vulgar desire.

No, perhaps it wasn’t reason, but her liking for Shen Ke that won out.

She had never been in love, but she was a smart person.

She could distinguish these emotions that made her lose control.

Shen Yi rubbed the fingers that had touched Shen Ke’s lips and said softly, “Get out of the car.”

Shen Ke trembled as she opened her eyes, somewhat in disbelief. Her lips moved. “Wh-what.” Just let her go like this?!

Shen Yi repeated in an emotionless tone, “Little Ke, you can get out of the car now.”

Shen Ke’s heart relaxed. She quickly opened the car door and got out, but Shen Yi’s voice followed immediately, not loud but exceptionally clear. “Wait.”

Shen Ke pursed her lips and stopped in her tracks.

Shen Yi got out of the car and stood behind Shen Ke, her tone flat. “Little Ke.”

Shen Ke slowly turned around to face Shen Yi and said softly, “Sister, what is it?” Shen Yi had said she wasn’t part of the Shen Family, so there was no need to keep calling her Big Sis.

Shen Yi reached out and cupped Shen Ke’s face, tilting it up slightly. She gently wiped away Shen Ke’s tears with her thumb. “Little Ke, don’t hate me.”

The gentle action stunned Shen Ke for a moment. She tilted her face up, staring blankly at Shen Yi.

Shen Yi lowered her lashes, her gaze half-lit and half-dark, making her emotions unreadable.

Shen Ke’s lips parted then closed, unsure how to respond.

But the next second, Shen Yi leaned down and placed a kiss on her lips.

The kiss was extremely restrained, brushing lightly before pulling away.

Shen Yi released Shen Ke and looked toward Shi Xu, who stood at the shop entrance watching them. She said lowly to Shen Ke, “I wasn’t joking. Leave here by tomorrow at the latest.”

“I’ll buy you a house.”

“Wherever you want, I’ll buy it for you.” It wasn’t a question, but a declaration.

Shen Ke lowered her head and pursed her lips tightly. Sure enough, Shen Yi’s gentleness just now had been her illusion.

She couldn’t stay at Shi Xu’s home anymore.

Meanwhile, inside the black sedan on the other side, the atmosphere was exceptionally heavy.

Shen Yu actually wanted to maintain her usual smile, but she couldn’t. She even felt irritable enough to light a cigarette.

Was Shen Yi some patient with skin hunger? It had only been a few days, and she came knocking again, calling her into the car.

Looking at Shen Ke like that, she knew Shen Yi had probably kissed her hard—cheeks flushed red, eyes wet and glistening.

Shen Yi was about to leave, yet she still kissed Shen Ke. Was she that good to kiss?

Looking at Shen Mother beside her, who had an expressionless face, Shen Yu called out, “Mom.”

Shen Mother hummed, her mood at its lowest. “Shen Yi has gone completely mad!”

Shen Yu lowered her lashes, knowing the matter was settled.

Mom had been hesitating before, but after this stunt from Shen Yi, she probably just wanted to get rid of Shen Ke.

Shen Mother was furious. Previously, she couldn’t even accept a waste like Shen Ke coming out of the closet, let alone her carefully nurtured eldest daughter!

She wouldn’t allow the Shen Family’s heir to be a lesbian who fancied Shen Ke, whom she had raised as a little sister for eighteen years.

If word got out, wouldn’t the Shen Family become guilty of incest?!

Even though Shen Ke had no blood ties with them and wasn’t even on the household registry, that was a matter for after the truth came out.

She absolutely wouldn’t allow it!

After Shen Yi’s car left, Shen Mother reined in all her emotions, got out of the car, and walked straight toward Shen Ke.

Shen Yu had no intention of getting out. She didn’t want to get involved in this.

“Sigh, how did Little Yi turn out like this?”

Shen Father’s sigh came from beside her.

Shen Yu turned her head and said indifferently, “Yeah, how could sister do this? No matter what, Little Ke stayed in our home for eighteen years.”

At that moment, Shen Ke was viciously cursing Shen Yi in front of Shi Xu. “She’s so bad! She actually threatened me!”

“How could she do that! I hate being threatened the most!”

“I curse Shen Yi to give birth to a child with no pee-pee in the future.” This was the most vicious thing Shen Ke could think of.

Today had been going so well, but Shen Yi suddenly appeared, dragged her into the car, scared her to tears, took advantage of her, and threatened her!

Seeing that Shi Xu wasn’t agreeing with her, Shen Ke put her hands on her hips and snorted coldly. “Shi Xu! Why aren’t you cursing with me!”

Her eyes were still red from crying, yet she pretended to be so stubborn in front of her. Shi Xu’s emotions couldn’t be vented at all.

She forced a smile. “I—” How should I say it? Should I say that I went mad with jealousy when I saw someone else kiss you, or that my heart ached to death seeing you cry so aggrievedly?

“Little Ke.”

A sudden voice interrupted Shi Xu’s words abruptly.

Shi Xu and Shen Ke both looked toward the source of the voice.

Upon seeing the person clearly, Shen Ke trembled all over and stammered, “M-Mom, Mama, why are you, you’re here.”

She hadn’t seen Shen Mother since the time Feng Jian fell down the stairs.

Shen Ke’s gaze darted nervously, missing the flash of disgust in Shen Mother’s eyes.

Shi Xu noticed it, and her face turned extremely ugly.

But Shen Ke called this woman Mama.

She couldn’t lose her temper.

Shen Mother composed herself, though she still looked cold. “Little Ke, can we talk alone?” Though phrased as a question, her expression made it a command.

Shen Ke pursed her lips, turned to look at Shi Xu, and said, “I’ll be right back. Wait for me here.” This meant she agreed.

Watching Shen Ke follow her to a dimly lit corner not far away, Shi Xu ground her teeth.

She was going crazy—

Why did the treasure she held in her palm have to suffer this?

Meanwhile, in the distance.

Shen Ke incredulously repeated Shen Mother’s words.

“Marry into the Yue Family—”

Shen Mother’s tone was flat. “Yes, marry the eldest daughter of the Yue Family.”

“Same-sex marriage was legalized last year. You can get married.”

“Little Ke, this is your best way out.”

“The Yue Family is only slightly inferior to the Shen Family, but—”

“Enough, I agree.” Shen Ke interrupted Shen Mother.

The clear cat-like eyes held no emotion toward Shen Mother anymore, faintly tinged with sadness. “I agree! But I have one condition: you can’t let Shen Yi harass me anymore!”

Shen Mother saw that emotion in Shen Ke’s eyes and felt an inexplicable discomfort. She was silent for a moment, then finally nodded.

With that, the deal between them was struck.

After Shen Mother left, Shen Ke’s expression immediately brightened. She bared her little tiger teeth, her round eyes sparkling.

She wasn’t stupid; she knew Shen Mother wanted to use her. But wasn’t the Yue Family’s eldest daughter Yue Lingqing?

They were good friends now.

She ran toward Shi Xu and pounced into her arms, tilting up her small face proudly. “Shi Xu! Let me tell you, I just screwed over the Shen Family!”

“She wants me to marry into the Yue Family, and I agreed.”

Shi Xu had felt a bit better seeing Shen Ke’s proud little expression, but upon hearing the second sentence, her heart clenched violently and plummeted to the bottom. “What.”

Shen Ke didn’t notice Shi Xu’s off mood and continued, “But it’s nothing. Yue Lingqing is my good friend now; she’ll treat me well for sure.”

“I’m not worried at all. I even made a condition: Shen Yi can’t come looking for me anymore.”

“Shi Xu, I’m smart, right?”

So—stupid. Shi Xu closed her eyes, her voice terrifyingly hoarse. “Shen Ke, did you forget? I like you.”

When she opened her eyes again, Shi Xu’s were red. She grasped Shen Ke’s hand and placed it on her own chest. “Shen Ke, it hurts so much here.”

Shi Xu’s expression was gloomier than Shen Ke had ever seen.

Shen Ke panicked, her small lips parting slightly. “Shi Xu, I…”

But Shi Xu released Shen Ke then, cutting her off. She turned away. “Sorry, Baby. I lost control of my emotions for a moment.”

“If only I were a bit more useful.”

Shen Ke bit her lower lip and said nothing. She didn’t know what to say. Seeing Shi Xu’s expression made her chest feel stuffy.

This was the first time Shi Xu had turned her back to her while speaking.

For some reason, Shen Ke felt aggrieved, but she held back her tears, didn’t cry, lowered her head, and stared at her toes. She said softly, “Shi Xu, are you in a lot of pain?”

Hearing Shen Ke’s aggrieved tone, Shi Xu’s heart tightened. She immediately wanted to turn back but held herself in check.

“Yes, it hurts like I’m dying.”

Shen Ke’s lashes trembled. She had just wanted to share with Shi Xu. “Shi Xu—”

“Xiao Xu, come help!” Shi Dad’s call rang out just then.

Shi Xu responded, then said to Shen Ke, “Baby, go upstairs and take a shower first. I’ll go help.”

With that, she hurried off.

Shen Ke stood in place without lifting her head.

“Drip, drop.”

Tears fell one by one to the ground, blooming into little flowers.

This time, it wasn’t from fear, but from heartache.

She hated Shi Xu treating her like this.

It was just a marriage alliance! What was the big deal!

It was all Shi Xu’s fault for being so petty!

Though she tried her best to blame Shi Xu, Shen Ke still couldn’t stop the increasing tears.

Shi Xu had been spacing out while holding a wrench when her shoulder was patted. She looked up in confusion. “Dad, what’s up?”

Shi Dad pointed toward Shen Ke. “Xiao Xu, did you bully her just now? Little Ke is such a cute girl, and now she’s wiping tears over there.”

Shi Xu froze and looked toward Shen Ke. Her pupils contracted sharply. Shen Ke hadn’t gone upstairs?!

Shi Xu immediately set down the wrench and ran over.

“Baby, why didn’t you go upstairs!”

Shen Ke silently lifted her head to look at Shi Xu, tears hanging from the corners of her eyes. Before Shi Xu could speak, Shen Ke did something utterly unexpected.

Shen Ke pressed down on her shoulders, stood on tiptoes, and kissed her.

The soft lips carried a fresh, sweet fragrance that Shi Xu touched and smelled.

In an instant, Shi Xu’s mind was completely filled with Shen Ke’s kiss.

Shi Xu didn’t react even after Shen Ke pulled away.

Shen Ke puffed out her cheeks, rubbed her eyes with her hand, and wiped away the tears. Her chubby cheeks formed two cute little arcs. “Alright, I kissed you, so you can’t be mad anymore.”

“It’s not like we’re getting married right away. I have to wait until I’m twenty to get married. Who knows what accidents might happen by then.” Shen Ke muttered.

Mama had said that no one could stay mad after being kissed by her.

These words pulled back Shi Xu’s soul, which had floated out of her body. She belatedly touched her lips, then revealed a smile that grew more and more exaggerated.

She grinned so widely that her teeth showed but her eyes didn’t. Seeing this, Shen Ke angrily kicked Shi Xu twice. “Don’t laugh!”

“Shi Xu, apologize to me! You were mean to me just now!”

“Baby, sorry. I just like you too much, that’s why!”

“I won’t do it again.”

“Then Baby, if I ask to get back together now, will you agree?”

“Scram! No way! You’re so poor—how could you support me!”

Hearing Shen Ke’s huffing words, Shi Xu’s heart bubbled with sweetness. Baby was too cute.

She had taken the initiative to kiss her. After so long, it was their first kiss.

Ah! Damn, so delicious it drove her crazy. She wouldn’t be able to sleep at all tonight!

At nine in the evening, Shi Xu returned to the room.

Shen Ke was already lying on the bed with her eyes closed, breathing evenly. She seemed to be asleep.

Shi Xu tiptoed to the bedside and gazed intently at Shen Ke for a long time before reluctantly leaving. Then, blissfully happy, she walked into the bathroom to prepare for a bath.

She had just turned on the hot water when the bathroom door opened.

Shi Xu wasn’t startled and boldly displayed her figure.

“Baby, you—”

As she turned around, Shi Xu was completely stunned and couldn’t even speak.

Shen Ke, wearing a somewhat sheer black tight miniskirt and barefoot, walked into the bathroom.

Shen Ke’s gaze flickered for a moment, but the next second, her expression turned willful. “Little Dog, today, M-Mistress permits you to kiss my feet.”

“Th-then, handle it yourself—”

“Get out!”

After saying that, Shen Ke blushed first.

She had searched on Baidu: why does someone feel good after being slapped?

A bunch of comments popped up.

There were also some videos that made Shen Ke’s face flush red.

Turns out Shi Xu was an M—no wonder she was such a pervert.

That’s what the people in the videos said, though she had phrased it more mildly.

Would Shi Xu be happier if treated like this?

Definitely. After all, she was rewarding Shi Xu.

Although Shen Mother had agreed, she still needed to leave Shi Xu’s home as soon as possible.

Shen Yi was so unhinged; she definitely wouldn’t be subdued that easily.

So tonight, she wanted to make Shi Xu a little happy. After all, it was their last night together.
