[Complete] Please leave a five-star review! [The complete novel is just 5 yuan. Writing isn't easy, so please support the official release. A bow of thanks.] [My completed novel, No One Loves Me, is available to read] When He Jianxue was twenty-nine, her mother and adopted younger sister died one after another. Her legs were disabled, and she lost everything almost overnight, reduced to barely scraping by at home. The moment she could no longer walk, all her honors left her. Her sister's death was her greatest pain, one that nothing could ease. That was until a slender, petite figure appeared before her, took her hand in hers, and gently said, "Sister He, your hand is so cold." When she lay awake all night, unable to sleep because she had lost her sister, the young woman pulled her into an embrace and comforted her. "If you don't mind, you can think of me as your little sister tonight." He Jianxue never imagined in her life that she would have another little sister. Perhaps because this little sister was so wonderful, she gradually realized she had begun to feel something more for her. / Sheng Tingmian grew up learning opera at the theater with her aunt. When she was eighteen, she moved with her aunt to an old residential complex in Yanshi. There, she met a disabled woman. All she knew was that the eldest daughter of the He family had an elegant, aloof air. Sheng Tingmian managed to get an investment from her, saving her aunt's opera troupe from closing down. Later, when she heard that the woman's younger sister had died, she went to comfort her out of sympathy. Unexpectedly, the woman asked her to call her big sister. The woman doted on her more and more. Sheng Tingmian knew she had become an emotional substitute for her sister, and planned to spend the rest of her life being her big sister's good little sister. But gradually, she realized that her big sister seemed to have improper intentions toward her. She would kiss her after drinking, calling her pet name with tender, lingering lips. She would secretly kiss the pearl tassel that had fallen from her, where no one could see. When Sheng Tingmian performed onstage, she would be her most devoted audience member. And especially after her legs healed, she wouldn't let Sheng Tingmian date anyone else. Sheng Tingmian might be young, but she wasn't naive. When she saw her big sister holding back for fear of frightening her, she decided to be frank. "Big sister, you don't have to hold back. You can come over and kiss me." Truthfully, she didn't just want to be her big sister's "little sister." [Reader's Guide] 1. Unemployed opera starlet as the bottom x disabled powerful woman as the top 2.

A superior who had been secretly in love with her for years pinned her against a corner and confessed desperately and wildly, saying he loved her and would give her anything, even himself. Xie Zhitang gave a low laugh, her shoulders trembling as she held it in. "Anything?" Her superior's eyes burned with intensity. "Yes." "Would you kill someone for me?" "What?" "Would you go to prison for seven years for me?" Her superior's expression changed. "If you can't do either, what right do you have to say you love me?" Terrified, he fled through the door. Xie Zhitang gave a scornful smile, brushed the dust off her shoulder, and turned toward a prison. As the prison gates opened, a tall, slender woman in prison clothes came out. Seven years ago, on this very day, Xie Zhitang had nearly been assaulted. Her older sister, Xin Geling, had accidentally killed a man while protecting her.
