My Childhood Sweetheart Is a Crazy Beauty-Chapter 4 - Little Demon

Tang Wanqiu looked at her usually frail and easy-to-deceive sister in shock, "Sister, you can't possibly slander me just because Brother Mingcheng wants to break off the engagement with you!"

She reacted quickly, outright denying the accusation.

Tang Chuxia tilted her head to look at her, her eyes shone with a brilliant light, yet her words carried a shattered beauty.

"If you had told me you liked Hu Mingcheng, I would have definitely given up the marriage for you, considering my ruined health, I'm sure I won't live long anyway!"

Madam Tang couldn't bear to hear those words, her tears started to well up as she hastily grasped Tang Chuxia's hand, soothingly patting it, then turned her head to scold Tang Wanqiu, "Is this how your grandparents taught you? You have always liked to steal things from your sister since you were little, and now you even steal a man, are you that dissatisfied?"

Father Tang was also furious, "Sisters fighting over a man, you're not ashamed to lose face, but I am, our Tang Family can't afford to lose this reputation!"

Brother Tang also looked at Tang Wanqiu disapprovingly.

Tang Wanqiu swayed, her eyes filled with an uncontrollable resentment.

"I didn't, why would you wrong me? Is whatever sister says taken as the truth?"

She clearly didn't kiss Hu Mingcheng, she dodged it!

But... how did Tang Chuxia find out about it?

Tang Wanqiu abruptly turned towards Tang Chuxia, "Sister, you didn't really fall into the water, did you? You've been following me the whole time, haven't you?"

Tang Chuxia hugged Madam Tang, "Mom, does my sister hate me because I grew up by your side?"

Madam Tang's heart ached badly, she held Tang Chuxia comforting her by patting her back, naturally not noticing the way Tang Chuxia looked up towards Tang Wanqiu with a mocking glance that swiftly passed.

Only Tang Wanqiu saw it; her eyes widened as she finally couldn't control her emotions and shouted, "Tang Chuxia, are you sick? You just can't stand to see me happy, can you?"

She had always known that her parents doted on her frail sister more.

Even though there was no lack of space at home, they insisted on her living in the countryside with her grandparents.

She hated her parents' bias and was jealous of her sister, but during this time, she thought her sister was merely a frail beauty without any capabilities, yet now she realized she was wrong.

Unable to control her emotions, she blurted out her true feelings.

Slap—

Father Tang slapped Tang Wanqiu across the face.

Tang Wanqiu incredulously covered her face, turning to look at Father Tang.

"Why?"

The shock in her eyes was too obvious, and Father Tang coldly said, "You're morally corrupted and disrespect your older sister, who gave you such audacity?"

Although Madam Tang felt pained to see her younger daughter hit, she also spoke up, "Wanqiu, your sister is frail and has to take medication for life because of you, how can you speak like this?"

Tang Wanqiu, clutching her face, bitterly smiled, "That same line again, I don't even know what happened, why do you say it's because of me that she's frail? Is it also my fault that I grew too well when I was in your womb? If she herself doesn't have the ability to be strong, why should she resent me? If she is to blame anyone, it should be her own lack of strength, what does it have to do with me?"

Madam Tang's tears fell.

She opened her mouth to say something, but Father Tang noticed and scolded, "The least qualified person to question 'why' in this house is you!"

Tang Chuxia leisurely drank from her cup, observing with a smirk the family surrounding Tang Wanqiu in questioning.

She keenly sensed that Father Tang and Madam Tang were hiding something, and it involved both her and Tang Wanqiu. However, she didn't want to delve into it, as she simply aimed to do as she pleased.

Ever since she crossed over to this place, she had gleaned from the original owner of the body's memories that this twin sister was no simple character.

Absolutely not that innocent.

But if she put herself in the other's shoes, she could understand. Growing up in the countryside, abandoned by parents just because one was healthier, why shouldn't there be a desire for revenge?

Unfortunately, she wasn't the original host. How could she feel guilt? They weren't her children, and being frail wasn't by her own choice.

Tang Wanqiu looked at Tang Chuxia with tears brimming in her eyes, but Chuxia didn't miss the loathing hidden beneath.

She raised her water cup towards Tang Wanqiu, toasting to her own splendid mood.

"Achoo!"

A feeble sneeze reminded the Tang Family that Tang Chuxia had fallen into the water just the day before. Frail as she was, could she really withstand this?

Madam Tang hurriedly found medicine for Tang Chuxia to take. After all, with her delicate constitution, the slightest thing could lead to major issues.

Tang Wanqiu's eyes filled with more visible hatred as she watched her busy family.

As time ticked on, Father Tang and Madam Tang warned Tang Wanqiu not to go meet Brother Mingcheng, then they reminded Tang Chuxia to rest well before rushing off to work.

Neither of them had retired; failing to go to work wasn't an option.

Left behind, Tang Jianbing glanced at Tang Chuxia and then at Tang Wanqiu.

"Chuxia, after taking medicine, go and rest. Don't actually catch a cold. Wanqiu, come with me!" Having said that, he took Tang Wanqiu outside to talk.

Tang Chuxia stretched languidly and went to bed, her body truly weak. While the medicine indeed had some effects, closing her eyes made her think of the man from the previous night, her lips curving up regretfully. She had not had a taste of him; he fit her aesthetic so perfectly, but was too rigid.

The sheer thought of his fervent Adam's apple and the desire in his eyes stirred her body into excitement.

But then a sneeze shattered all those amorous thoughts, and she cursed the heartless man. He had doused her in cold water; she vowed to retaliate next time they met.

The very man occupying her thoughts, Gu Beihuai, had been on the verge of exploding from the reactions his body had after knocking her unconscious. He ended up lying in the snow to endure the aftermath.

After returning Chuxia to her home, he finally fell asleep, but he dreamt constantly of that woman's slender waist and fair neck. No matter how he might conquer and assert his masculinity, he was jolted awake by her words, "Can you even do it or not?"

Fuming from the bodily reaction, all he could picture was Tang Chuxia's eyes, teasing yet seemingly pure.

Her scent was fraught with subtleties, her fair as jade cheeks perhaps flushed from the medicine or perhaps from arousal, a light pink color beneath her moist and alluring eyes.

He suddenly opened his eyes and cursed under his breath, "Little demon!"

Just then, Wu Haipeng walked in. Hearing the curse, he chuckled, "What little demon is making our proud young master so angry?"

Wu Haipeng searched the room to no avail, then sat on the edge of the kang and teasingly asked, "Is it the girl from last night?"

Gu Beihuai's answer was a pillow thrown his way, Haipeng laughed heartily.

This typically cold-hearted guy was finally interested in a girl; it was big news indeed. He planned to go out and spread the word.

But then he heard Beihuai coolly utter a name behind him. Haipeng shivered, and his enthusiasm wilted. He couldn't believe his ears and asked incredulously, "For real? You didn't go crazy, did you?"
