The Gentle Older Sister Played with My Feelings

Tsundere heiress x gentle seduction

The girl next door was gentle and considerate. When she smiled, her eyes shimmered with affection, and those seductive peach-blossom eyes seemed to give Bai Yizhi a knowing look.

When the older girl tutored her, Bai Yizhi could catch the faint, delicate scent of her crisp white shirt. Bai Yizhi's ears turned red, and she lowered her eyes, afraid to look directly at her.

Slender, elegant fingers tapped on the desk. "Make another mistake and you'll have to be punished."

Bai Yizhi liked her and, all clumsy and impulsive, managed to win her over.

But after they got together, she realized the older girl didn't seem as gentle as before. Not only did she lie to Bai Yizhi constantly, she also grew increasingly cold toward her.

After Bai Yizhi had been deceived in every way, the older girl's heart proved as cold as ice. She gently stroked Bai Yizhi's head. Her smile was still radiant, her eyes still bright, but her words were utterly cruel: "It was just for fun. Don't take it seriously."

That was the first time in her pampered life that Bai Yizhi had cried so hard. Sobbing, she desperately tried to make her stay, but the other woman didn't even look back. They cut off all contact.

When they met again, Bai Yizhi was at a low point in her career.

She had traveled for love to meet someone she'd been chatting with online, but could someone please tell her why this person looked exactly like her ex?

Bai Yizhi was aghast. She had thought she'd have a chance encounter with a glamorous boss, but instead she had a reunion with her ex after all these years.

The slender, beautiful woman simply looked at Bai Yizhi. Her expression was calm, but her eyes flickered. "Zhizhi, even though we've broken up, I'll still look after you like a little sister."

Bai Yizhi was unmoved. If she hadn't known what a cold-hearted person Nian Zhao was like, she might have believed her.

Her gentleness and thoughtfulness were an act. In reality, she was aloof and unfeeling. When she was in a bad mood, she looked at people with her tea-colored eyes as if they were dogs.

And yet, anyone who had spent time with her could hardly help liking her. Even the distant air she gave off, keeping everyone at arm's length, was irresistibly alluring.

Bai Yizhi snapped back in anger, "Who are you calling your little sister? Little sisters don't kiss their big sisters."

Bai Yizhi didn't go back to an ex. When they met again, she planned to keep her distance, but the other woman wouldn't leave her alone. Nian Zhao seemed genuinely determined to take good care of her.

When Bai Yizhi ran out of money, she gave her some.

When Bai Yizhi got angry, she soothed her.

When Bai Yizhi got hurt, she worried about her.

Somehow, taking care of her led to taking her to bed.

Bai Yizhi, who had sworn never to go back to an ex, finally gave in. Though she hadn't done anything, she couldn't help feeling that she had finally warmed Nian Zhao's cold heart.

Then Nian Zhao ran off again, and Bai Yizhi had been played once more.

This time, though, she grabbed Nian Zhao's slender wrist and dragged her toward the bed. Her voice carried a barely detectable hint of anger. "Big sister, try running away again. I won't mind locking you up."
