"Happy birthday, Bro!"

Xia Yue raised her sincere face, her voice extraordinarily sweet.

Almost as soon as her words fell, An Yinan simultaneously waved his hand, throwing the picture from Xia Yue’s hand onto the floor. It hit the floor with a dull sound.

Today was the coming-of-age ceremony for An Yinan and Xia Yue. After An's father announced the division of the An family assets, Xia Yue realized a change in An Yinan's mood, so she planned to console him just like before.

"Do not call me brother!" An Yinan turned around, his glacial face and tone startled Xia Yue. She quickly recollected herself and carefully picked up the sketch An Yinan had thrown on the ground.

As she bent down, Xia Yue’s eyes welled up with tears, but she told herself not to cry. If she succumbed to sadness, then nobody else could cheer up a distraught An Yinan.

Ever since An Yinan returned to the An House at the age of ten, Xia Yue had not seen An's stern expression for a long time.

Struggling to hold back her tears, Xia Yue picked up the picture and stood. Actingly nonchalantly, she asked An Yinan, "Brother, are you upset because of the...house...property division?" As she spoke, Xia Yue struggled to maintain her composure. She could hide her facial expressions, but the pain in her heart was still there.

"You don't have to worry about that at all, really. I don't want any of it. Even though father has made this decision, the company is so big, you will surely be in charge of it in the future, What's mine is yours." Xia Yue comforted An Yinan despite her heartache, her words somewhat scrambled and uncontrolled.

"Perhaps, father is doing this so that people wouldn't think he's been unfair to me..."

"Shut up." An Yinan cut off Xia Yue coldly, raised his glass, and drained the red wine.

"Brother..." Seeing An Yinan downing his drink so furiously, Xia Yue called with concern.

"I told you, stop calling me brother!" Alongside his words, An Yinan's wine glass crashed to the floor, shattering into pieces with a crisp, ringing sound.

Before Xia Yue could react, An Yinan pushed her backwards until her back was against the wall. Just as Xia Yue was about to speak, An Yinan cut her off with a fervent kiss, his mouth filled with the scent of alcohol.

Xia Yue was in disbelief with what was happening. Did An Yinan just kiss her?

Left helpless, Xia Yue wanted to push An Yinan away, but her strength was not enough to hinder him.

She couldn't let this happen! An Yinan was her brother. Xia Yue's thoughts gradually cleared, and she used all her strength to push An Yinan away.

"You can't do this!" Xia Yue looked steadfastly at An Yinan's eyes, almost filled with rage, and shook her head.

Dominating and cruel, An Yinan stole her first kiss just like that.

Xia Yue lowered her eyes, unable to suppress her panic and disappointment, and planned to flee without waiting for An Yinan's response.

But just as Xia Yue was about to step away, her arm was grabbed back by a strong hand. She turned her head to meet An Yinan's cold eyes.

"Leaving?" An Yinan hooked up a demonically charming corner of his mouth, the coldness in his eyes brought Xia Yue a touch of fear.

"I haven't given you your adulthood gift yet." An Yinan tightly imprisoned Xia Yue in his chest with one hand, snatched the painting from Xia Yue's arms with the other, and casually flung it into the corner of the room.

Following the fall of the oil painting, Xia Yue's vision broke out bursts of heartbreak. She immediately felt the pulling of her clothes, An Yinan was tearing off her clothes, Xia Yue was terrified and cried out, "Brother, what are you doing?"

With a dark face, An Yinan ignored Xia Yue's shout and ruthlessly tore off her clothes.

Xia Yue panicked, An Yinan was now like a mad man, her tears fell in the struggle with An Yinan, she was pushing An Yinan while trying to get him to sober up: "Brother, stop it, I am your sister, brother..."

An Yinan suddenly stopped, and said coldly next to Xia Yue's ear: "Don't call me brother!"

Xia Yue was almost stripped, and her tears flowed harder when she heard An Yinan's words, uncontrollable, but now, An Yinan was drunk and unconscious.
