In a manor in S City, a birthday banquet was being held for the eldest daughter of the Jian family.
Jian Lao Xin, the eldest daughter, wore an elegant red long dress, with the silk fabric accentuating her perfect figure and making her look alluring and sexy.
Her exquisite features were unadorned with makeup, but her naturally fair and smooth skin contrasted beautifully with the diamonds on her red dress, making her appear even more radiantly white and rosy.
Jian Lao Xin was arm-in-arm with her husband Yin Sibo, a blissful and proud smile on her lips.
It was their first wedding anniversary, coinciding with her birthday.
Everyone looked on enviously at the princess-like Jian Lao Xin, whispering among themselves.
"I heard that Jian Lao Xin's stepmother dotes on her more than her own daughter."
"That's right, they say the Eternal Star necklace she's wearing now was bought by her stepmother Jia Jingrong for over ten million yuan. It's a masterpiece by the famous Italian designer Hank!"
"Look, that's Jia Jingrong's eldest daughter Jian Mengling, she looks so pampered and pitiful!"
Jian Lao Xin couldn't help but smile proudly. Her life was a success; though her birth mother passed away early, she had a loving husband, doting parents, and a half-sister...
"How are you? Tired?"
An hour later, on the balcony, her husband Yin Sibo gently brushed back a strand of hair from her forehead, his handsome face filled with deep affection.
After making the rounds toasting the guests, Yin Sibo noticed Jian Lao Xin looking a bit fatigued, so he brought her out here.
"Not at all, with you by my side," Jian Lao Xin smiled as she drank the juice Yin Sibo handed her. Yin Sibo lowered his head, a hint of guilt in his eyes.
"Sister, you should enjoy yourself while you can. Soon, your birthday might become your death anniversary!"
A cold voice rang out, and Jian Lao Xin was surprised to see her half-sister Jian Mengling enter.
The manor overlooked the sea, with the balcony built over a cliff, but the door was soundproofed, so no one inside the hall could see or hear what was happening here.
Jian Mengling, usually gentle and graceful, wore a mocking and sinister smile. She closed the door and came over, violently shoving Jian Lao Xin away.
"You vile woman, don't touch my man!
Jian Meng Ling cried out sharply, Jian Lao Xin's face turned ghastly pale, looking at Yin Si Bo, while Yin Si Bo looked at her apologetically, his gentle expression gone, his gaze becoming colder and colder.
'How ridiculous! Sister, Si Bo is my husband, what are you?' Seeing her sister and husband ignoring her and intimately leaning together, Jian Lao Xin couldn't help but stride forward, raising her hand to slap Jian Meng Ling!
Yin Si Bo swiftly grabbed Jian Lao Xin's wrist, 'Lao Xin, I'm sorry, I've fallen in love with Meng Ling a long time ago...'
Jian Lao Xin's heart felt as if pierced by a thousand arrows, 'What did you say?'
Her husband of one year actually fell in love with her sister? When did this happen?
'Three years ago!' Jian Meng Ling's small face was full of pride, no longer wanting to hide her true colors, 'And now I'm pregnant with Si Bo's child, two months along, so sister, you might as well go die!'
Jian Meng Ling's face became ferocious, Jian Lao Xin was completely clueless about what had happened.
'Si Bo, what is the reason for this?'
Yin Si Bo's eyes had long lost any guilt, he coldly looked at Jian Lao Xin, 'Lao Xin, I've been exhausted living with you, from tonight on I can live with the woman I love.'
Jian Lao Xin's face turned deathly pale, while Jian Meng Ling came over, 'Jian Lao Xin, do you know why mom doted on you so much? Don't you know, mom deliberately raised you to be an arrogant, willful, stupid and ignorant young mistress who only pursues luxury goods like an idiot! Do you know how much daddy detests you?'
Jian Lao Xin felt a chill down her back! That's right, she didn't know when, but she became more and more obsessed with pursuing luxury goods, like an addiction. Once she set her sights on something, she had to have it!
'Mom raised you to be such an idiot, but even though daddy detested you, he still pretended to dote on you, because only then could he swindle that huge inheritance out of your hands... and just now we put drugs in your juice, then you'll fall off the cliff and die, from then on your inheritance will be mine, the man will be mine, this mansion worth hundreds of millions will also be mine...'
*Slap!*
Jian Lao Xin was so angry her pretty face flushed, raising her hand to slap Jian Meng Ling, 'You bitch, how dare you?'
'Jian Lao Xin! You dare hit my beloved woman!' Yin Si Bo immediately became enraged, forcefully pushing Jian Lao Xin back several steps, her back against the railing behind!
Jian Lao Xin felt as if her heart had been slashed open, her face burning with pain, she looked at her husband in shock, unable to believe that this man who had doted on her for a year had actually hidden his feelings so deeply!
Not just Yin Si Bo, but also her stepmother Jia Jing Rong, and stepsister Jian Meng Ling! These two vile women treated her well while harboring such vicious intentions!
'Yin Si Bo! Jian Meng Ling! You wretched pair, someone help...'
Jian Lao Xin was about to call for help, but her body suddenly started convulsing, an inexplicable feeling of excitement causing her to flail uncontrollably!
'Sister, that's a very potent drug... a new type of drug! Hehe, after you die, people will think you overdosed and fell to your death! Oh, and do you remember that banquet seven years ago, you also drank the new drug I gave you? And by the way, that bitch your mom was actually poisoned to death by my mom...'
Jian Menglin sneered coldly, leaning against Yin Sibo's chest, her smile like a poisoned sword piercing Jian Laixian's eyes.
Although Jian Laixian's movements were controlled by the drugs, her mind was still clear.
"You vile woman... So it was you who killed my mother... and drugged me..." Jian Laixian realized, but it was too late.
Her body danced uncontrollably, and Yin Sibo slowly approached her. "Jian Laixian, in consideration of our one year of marriage, I'll let you die a quick death!"
As he spoke, the once infinitely tender eyes of Yin Sibo flickered with chilling murderous intent, and he forcefully pushed Jian Laixian off the cliff!
Jian Laixian clung tightly to Yin Sibo's clothes, her eyes brimming with tears, her heart in excruciating pain.
"No... wait! Don't kill me, I have a plot of land worth billions..." Jian Laixian's eyes were filled with pleading. "Don't kill me, I'll transfer the entire land to you!"
Yin Sibo and Jian Menglin exchanged a glance, their eyes flickering with greed.
"I'll tell you... Sibo, come here..." Jian Laixian trembled all over, gazing imploringly at Yin Sibo.
