The Days My Older Sister Kept Me in Line

#Mean, proud young lady × gloomy, manipulative scholarship student

Xu Fuyi spent the Lin family's money, so she should obey Lin Xiaoman unconditionally.

That's what Lin Xiaoman thought, and that's how she acted.

She often bullied Xu Fuyi, and Xu Fuyi always obeyed without question, no matter what Lin Xiaoman wanted her to do.

Lin Xiaoman was pleased that Xu Fuyi knew her place, but also unhappy that she knew it too well, so she kept taking things further and bullying her more and more.

Yet Xu Fuyi always put up with it.

Lin Xiaoman thought Xu Fuyi would never escape her grasp, until Xu Fuyi asked Lin Xiaoman's mother to let her skip a grade. That was the first time.

The second time was after Xu Fuyi finished her university entrance exams. She applied to a university abroad and knelt before Lin Xiaoman's mother to expose Lin Xiaoman's cruelty.

Lin Xiaoman was put under house arrest, while Xu Fuyi left the Lin family. They didn't see each other again for five years, until Lin Xiaoman's mother's funeral...

Xu Fuyi showed up with the will. After Lin Xiaoman's mother died, the Lin Group was temporarily entrusted to Xu Fuyi, along with Lin Xiaoman, who wasn't yet capable of running the company.

“Xu Fuyi! You bastard!”

When Xu Fuyi locked her in the house, Lin Xiaoman screamed those words with all her might.

But Xu Fuyi merely touched the cheek she'd just been slapped on. Looking at the girl before her, who was just as nasty as ever despite the five years that had passed, she smiled and gently patted Lin Xiaoman's face. “Behave, or I'll return this slap, along with every one of the others from the past.”

Xu Fuyi kept Lin Xiaoman under her watch. Lin Xiaoman had to do as Xu Fuyi said and earn her university diploma and degree, so she'd be capable of taking over the company.

After that, Xu Fuyi would leave, as if she'd never been there at all.
