Mr and Mrs Jiang had a total of four sons and daughters. The youngest daughter, Jiang Yu, was lost when she was three years old.
When Mrs. Jiang passed away due to illness, Mr. Jiang took a second wife. His second wife was a single mother and that was how Jiang Wan came to be the youngest daughter.
Technically, Jiang Wan was her stepsister.
Just like the book’s description, Jiang Wan had an oval face, big eyes, a high nose, and small lips. She was a stunning beauty.
The dress she was wearing looked simple but it was clearly a high-end product. The fabric was of exquisite material and Jiang Wan looked elegant in it.
She was a famous person on the school campus. She has been the school Belle for the last three years. How could Jiang Yu ever compare to this princess in the eyes of the masses?
The moment Jiang Yu saw Jiang Wan from the stories, a sense of inferiority was triggered. She did not dare look up at Jiang Wan. On the other hand, Jiang Wan was kind and friendly. She didn’t put on any airs. From that moment on, Jiang Wan had broken down the walls of Jiang Yu’s heart.
At this present moment though, a new soul was residing in this body and it said calmly, “Jiang Yu.”
Jiang Wan was taken aback for a moment before she realized that Jiang Yu was talking to her. Jiang Yu had not even bothered to say a single word more. Jiang Wan decided not to ignore it and said, “Sister, let me help you with your things.”
“There’s no need.”
Jiang Yu hoisted up her luggage and turned to the maid beside her. “Take me to my room.”
“Sister, you are the eldest daughter of the Jiang family. You can leave this kind of menial work to the servant,” Jiang Wan said as she followed behind.
“Ok.”
Jiang Yu entered her room and thanked the maid before slamming the door shut.
Jiang Wan was expecting to follow Jiang Yu into the room, not expecting to almost be hit on the nose by Jiang Yu’s door.
She narrowed her eyes and the smile dropped from her face. She stood outside the door and said, “Big Sister, get cleaned up. I will send someone to call you for dinner later.”
“Alright.”
Jiang Yu flopped on the bed as soon as she entered her room.
Her father and stepmother had perished in a car accident. The Jiang family had left behind four children.
The four brothers did not get along well. Three of the brothers had moved out, thus only the eldest, Jiang Cheng Lang, and Jiang Wan, lived in the family mansion.
Dealing with stepsisters just wasn’t as comfortable as lying down.
Jiang Wan was rejected but there was no show of anger on her face. She turned around and headed down the stairs. Just then, her cell phone rang but Jiang Wan didn’t bother to answer it.
It wasn’t until she had reached the dining room and the maids had served dinner that the second call came. Jiang Wan picked up the phone.
“Big Brother.”
The person calling was Jiang Cheng Lang. He had not seen Jiang Yu in person yet, so he wanted to check up on the situation with Jiang Wan.
Jiang Wan replied, “Yes, Big Sister is already home. It’s just that… Sister appears to prefer being alone and doesn’t like me very much…”
“Yeah, she locked herself in her room the moment she arrived and didn’t want to come down to have dinner with me… It’s okay, I am fine. She has just returned. She’s not familiar with me, she is probably wary of strangers…”
“Don’t worry Big Brother. I am not angry. I will take good care of Big Sister.”
“A gift?”
“I think Big Sister just needs time to adapt to her new life. There’s no need to buy expensive gifts for her for the time being…”
Jiang Wan put down the phone.
She smiled and began to enjoy her dinner.
Back in the room, Jiang Yu was lying on the bed after having tidied up. She could hear the sound of winds from outside the window as she stared at the ceiling. At last, she got out of the bed and snuck out the window.
There was another family villa not far off, and it was decorated more extravagantly than the Jiang family villa. Jiang Yu landed quietly on a tree in the garden. From where she perched, she could see someone walking out of the neighbouring villa.
The first thing to come into view was a wheelchair, followed by a pair of man’s legs. They were straight and slender. The man had on a pair of dark gray suit pants which were devoid of creases.
The man raised his head.
His facial features looked like they had been carved out with a knife. The lines on his face were sharp and deep. The bridge of his nose was tall and straight. The shape of his lips were full and beautiful. The most magnetic part about his face though were his eyes. They were deepset and shined brightly, as if they contained the stars. However…
