   The eldest and second eldest brothers figured it out themselves. Lin Yichuan and Lin Xinyan exchanged a glance, shook their heads helplessly, and could only resign themselves to sitting in the front row. The car slowly pulled away from the train station, and Lin Qingye gazed at the bustling city night scene outside the window, feeling somewhat dazed. She had grown up in the countryside and had never seen such brightly lit streets, towering buildings, and bustling traffic; everything seemed so unfamiliar yet novel. Li Wantang noticed her nervousness, gently took her hand, and said tenderly, "Qingye, this is your home from now on. If there's anything you're not used to, just tell Mom." Lin Qingye nodded obediently, a warm feeling welling up in her heart. She had been adopted by foster parents since she was a child. Although they treated her well, the family was poor and life was difficult. Now, suddenly returning to her biological parents' side, facing such a comfortable environment and warm family, she felt a little lost. Lin Yuan glanced at her through the rearview mirror and smiled, "Qingye, Dad prepared a gift for you. I hope you like it." "Thank you, Dad," she replied softly, her cheeks slightly flushed. Lin Chengyun immediately leaned over, grinning, and said, "Little sister, your third brother has also prepared a surprise for you! I guarantee it'll be cooler than your eldest and second brothers'!" Lin Yichuan scoffed, "Are you sure? Mine is a globally limited edition." Lin Xinyan smiled faintly, her tone gentle yet carrying a hint of competitiveness, "I had someone bring back a high-end custom-made item from France; it should suit you better, little sister." Lin Chengyun retorted, "Tch, materialistic! My gift is heartfelt!" Li Wantang couldn't help but chuckle, patting her youngest son, "Alright, stop arguing. Qingye can choose whichever she likes." Lin Qing was amused by their enthusiasm, her initial awkwardness gradually dissipating. The car entered the Lin family villa area, and Lin Qingye's eyes widened slightly as she gazed at the magnificent European-style building. Lin Chengyun said smugly, "How about it, little sister? Isn't our house nice?" Lin Qingye nodded honestly, "It's beautiful." Lin Yuan parked the car, and the family entered the villa. As soon as she entered, the butler and servants stood in a neat row, respectfully saying, "Welcome home, Miss!" Lin Qingye was startled and instinctively hid behind Li Wantang. Li Wantang smiled and put her arm around her shoulder: "Don't be afraid, these are all the staff of the house. If you need anything in the future, just let them know." Lin Yuan waved his hand, and the butler immediately understood. Soon, several servants pushed over several exquisite gift boxes. "Qingye, these are gifts that your parents and brothers prepared for you. See if you like them?" Li Wantang said softly. Lin Qingye carefully opened the first box—it was a diamond necklace, sparkling under the light. "This... Is too expensive..." She said, somewhat at a loss. Lin Yuan smiled: "It's not expensive. You deserve the best." The second box contained a high-end custom-made dress, the third was the latest top-of-the-line laptop, the fourth... Each gift was more luxurious than the last. Lin Qingye's eyes welled up with tears. From childhood to adulthood, she had never received such thoughtful gifts. Lin Chengyun leaned closer, saying mysteriously, "Little sister, my gift is here!" He handed her a small box, which Lin Qing opened to find a key. "What's this?" She asked, looking up in confusion. "I bought you an apartment near the school, it's all furnished. If you don't like living at home, you can move in anytime!" Lin Chengyun said proudly. "And it's close to my school, so I can visit you every day!" Lin Yichuan sighed, "... You certainly know how to be attentive." Lin Xinyan chuckled, "Looks like we need to step up our game, we can't lose to the third brother." Lin Qing finally couldn't help but burst out laughing. Her laughter seemed to melt away the ice and snow, brightening the entire living room. The three brothers looked at her, and the same thought simultaneously popped into their minds—**In this life, we must make our little sister this happy forever.**

    ❤️First Book: The long-lost eldest daughter of the Shi family has been found. Her brothers are full of pity for her, vowing to spoil her like a princess. Everyone in the capital thought she was a sickly and pitiful girl. Until one day, the eldest daughter changed her usual frail appearance and personally led people to destroy the Shi family. The scumbag father asked angrily, "Are you trying to commit patricide?" The girl, however, seemed to have heard a joke and slowly repeated, "Patricide?" "That's a pleasant-sounding word." "Your daughter, Shi Yin, was killed abroad by your good wife when she was only twelve years old." The girl smiled calmly, but no one saw the loneliness in her eyes or the tears that streamed down her cheeks. Because the real Shi family's eldest daughter, Shi Yin, was her best friend. And this time, she returned only to destroy the Shi family and avenge that innocent girl. That day, blood flowed like rivers in the capital, and countless noble families fell silent, fearing implication. Only later did people realize that she was the envied, favored daughter of heaven. The unparalleled, strategically astute second daughter of the Yin family, in the European Prime Minister's residence. Ruthless and cruel were not even adequate descriptions of her. And yet, this same person would call out to the peerless young man with tenderness: "Brother Yan." She gave him all her tenderness. Because the boy was her salvation. ❤️ Second book: "A cold and aloof nobleman, gentle only to one person X A bright, unrestrained, and possessive young lady" Outside, she is the young master of the Yue family, feared since childhood. Inside, she is a pampered princess, showered with love and affection by her parents. Yue Qingyan has lived for eighteen years, bright and unrestrained, high above the world. She has three incredibly handsome and capable older brothers, and she herself is an unattainable figure in the eyes of the world. Because she has enough confidence, she has always done as she pleases. So even though she transmigrated into a fake heiress in a book, destined for an early death, she calmly tore up the script and returned to her country to make a name for herself. Her smooth sailing from childhood to adulthood has given her a very strong possessiveness. Whatever she wants, she must have. So when she met her nominal fiancé, that aloof and snow-like young man, she knew at first glance that this person would be hers. Even knowing that the young man had ulterior motives in approaching her, she still wanted to keep him by her side. Watching the young man's departing figure, the girl's tone was filled with madness and obsession. "You went to great lengths to get close to me, you better not be trying to harm me, otherwise..." "I will definitely destroy you!" He was someone she liked, yet he stood on the opposite side of her. If that was the case, and she couldn't have him, then she would destroy him. This was a high-stakes gamble. And how could the young man, who regarded the girl as more important than his own life, bear to let her lose? ❤️ Both are by the same author. The first book was very popular on Kuaishou and Douyin before, a revenge novel. The second book just started receiving ratings, so the ratings are relatively low, but it's super good.
