The Senior Who Treats Love as a Tool

She recalled the sensation on Xie An's skin, her slightly cold palm pressed against the warm hollow of her waist, the body beneath her hand trembling slightly, warm, moist breaths caressing her ear, her face flushed like the most enchanting flower blooming in the night. The jasmine flower bloomed in her heart. No matter how much her body resisted, no matter how cold and sharp her words were, they would all turn into a pool of spring water under her mischievous hands, allowing her to revel in wantonness, bringing a room full of spring scenery.

Disgust welled up in her eyes. She was so ashamed that her entire body flushed crimson, collapsing into tears before her, attempting to awaken her reason. But she was inherently filled with hatred, only becoming more vicious. Tears became the most natural catalyst, drenching the malicious soil in her heart, making her emotions swell even more. Love and hatred poured onto her, and she finally learned to be docile.

As if a drop of hot oil had fallen into her heart, her body surged with a burning sensation, even a sharp pain. Jin Yan Si's dark eyelashes trembled. Was she also staring at Xie An with such eyes? It was... too disgusting. Just thinking about that possibility made her so nauseous she couldn't speak. Her hand, hanging by her side, clenched tightly. Jin Yan Si's cheeks showed an unusual flush, but her lips were terrifyingly pale. She unnaturally retreated half a step, her red skirt flowing gracefully like an elegant pink butterfly's wings. Only her uncontrollable heartbeat reminded her that her mind was far from calm.

In Xie An's eyes, there was only Shen Qing Chen. Except for the moment she opened her mouth to speak, Xie An didn't look at her again. A self-mocking smile played on her lips. Jin Yan Si was almost provoked by her own absurd thoughts to laugh aloud. This kind of person... this kind of deceitful person, how could she have such thoughts about her? Don't be so disgusting. All her feelings were solely based on her desire to humiliate and take revenge on her. Nothing more.

Her gold-inlaid red agate earrings swayed gently. Her gaze, fixed on Xie An's face, grew more sinister. Her high heels clicked crisply against the ground as she quickly approached, deliberately squeezing between the two. All thoughts were cut short. Shen Qing Chen instinctively loosened the hand resting on Xie An's shoulder. Jin Yan Si immediately seized the opportunity to push in, feigning intimacy as she hooked Xie An's arm. Her voice was sweet and enchanting, but the smile didn't reach her eyes: "I'm not feeling well, Big Sister An An. Could you accompany me to the lounge for a moment?"

Xie An's body stiffened slightly, her eyes flickered. She remained silent, clearly implicitly refusing. Malice and indignation intertwined, surging in her beautiful eyes. There it was again. Ever since that incident, she had begun to reject her touch, treating her like a viper, yet she was utterly reliant in front of Shen Qing Chen. It was truly infuriating. A morbid obsession surged in her heart, making Jin Yan Si's face even more captivating. She tilted her head to look at Xie An, a faint smile playing on her lips, deliberately lowering her voice: "Don't we still have something unfinished to discuss?"

At these words, Xie An finally looked up at her, her gentle brows tinged with a hint of sorrow, her aura becoming even more ethereal, fragile, and pitiful. But that expression only further stimulated the destructive desire in Jin Yan Si's heart. "Alright?" She seemed not to notice Xie An's awkwardness and evasion, blinking coquettishly, her voice rising slightly at the end.

Shen Qing Chen's gaze grew slightly cold. Just as he was about to speak and stop her, Jin Yan Si suddenly turned and smiled at him, her smile bold, her eyes full of aggression, her red lips alluringly demonic, yet her voice was as sweet as honey: "Since it's a girls' matter, Brother Qing Chen can't help. If you can't help, surely lending Big Sister An An for a moment is fine, no?"

Shen Qing Chen also smiled gently, his eyes mild, seemingly wholeheartedly concerned for Jin Yan Si: "Yan Si, are you truly unwell? Or should we call a doctor to check? In case An An can't help, you'd at least suffer less."

Jin Yan Si completely ignored his trap, merely smiling: "How could Big Sister An An not be able to help?" Her voice was unhurried, emphasizing each word: "Tonight I am unwell, and only she can cure me."

The smile on Shen Qing Chen's lips faltered slightly, and a few traces of coldness flashed in his eyes. Xie An didn't want the two to argue because of her, so she slowly opened her mouth, her voice clear as spring water: "It's fine. You two talk first. I'll accompany... Miss Jin for a while and then return."

Seeing that Xie An had spoken, Shen Qing Chen found it inconvenient to stop her. He only warned her as she passed by: "Then be careful."

Xie An obediently nodded, smiling at him. Jin Yan Si's eyes darkened again, and she said with a laugh: "Brother Qing Chen is so humorous. What could I possibly do to Big Sister An An?"

As if finding it uncomfortable to talk with her head tilted, she decisively retreated a few steps, and Xie An was forced to follow. The person facing Shen Qing Chen now was Jin Yan Si. The corners of her eyes were slightly raised, full of allure. Her long red dress accentuated her snow-white skin, and her slender waist was not even a full arm's embrace, her beauty captivating. She slowly moved closer to Shen Qing Chen. Just as he was about to widen the distance, she whispered in a voice only they could hear, full of resentment: "I just can't get to her."

Shen Qing Chen froze on the spot, his usually gentle expression suddenly shattering. He stared in disbelief at Jin Yan Si's enchanting face, and after a long moment, he gritted his teeth and whispered: "Are you insane? She's your sister." His first reaction wasn't even to use gender to suppress her, but to use this forbidden relationship to warn her. These words seemed to strike a nerve in Jin Yan Si. She suddenly burst into laughter, laughing until tears welled in her eyes, and slowly said: "The Jin family only has one daughter, and that's me. Where would a sister come from?"

After speaking, she grabbed Xie An's wrist and swept past Shen Qing Chen. Shen Qing Chen's heart pounded wildly. He couldn't help but grab Xie An's other hand, instinctively blocking Jin Yan Si's movement. Xie An didn't know what the two had said. Seeing Shen Qing Chen hold her back, she looked at him with a hint of doubt. Shen Qing Chen searched for words to stop them, but his mind was blank, his eyes reddened. He had no idea how to deal with this madwoman, Jin Yan Si, and could only clench her hand, struggling against her. Jin Yan Si was not in a hurry either. The smile on her face unchanged, she calmly said to Xie An: "Big Sister An An, are you truly so heartless, not intending to accompany me?"

Xie An understood her meaning. Her being unwell was just an excuse; Jin Yan Si's true purpose was to talk about those gloves. And she herself intended to end this matter soon, so she naturally wouldn't refuse. Therefore, she smiled reassuringly at Shen Qing Chen, slowly removing his hand: "Don't worry."

Jin Yan Si was satisfied. She provocatively smiled brightly at Shen Qing Chen, then pulled Xie An away. Only when passing Tang Xing Yu did she pause slightly, her gaze, a mix of scrutiny and hostility, sweeping over him. Seeing no reaction from him, she relaxed. Tang Xing Yu's eyelashes lowered slightly. The jade pendant in his hand had long since grown warm. When Jin Yan Si passed by, he feigned indifference, but as Xie An brushed past his shoulder, his long eyelashes trembled slightly. Sensing something unusual in her hand, Xie An looked at him with slight surprise, but he still didn't look up. Only, the jade pendant that had been emitting a faint light in his hand had disappeared at some point.

An An is surrounded by perverts, but luckily, she is one herself.
