C4 I Was Helpless

Stepping out of the bathroom, she took a moment to compose herself. But as soon as she entered the living room, something felt off. A familiar girl was sitting on the couch, poised like she owned the place.

That girl... was her sister, Jiaojiao?

Yuhan's heart skipped a beat, and her mind buzzed as she recognized the face. The girl from last night with Ann Beiqi... it was her sister?

Was it really her last night?

Another wall inside Yuhan crumbled. She fought back the nausea, controlled her emotions, and tried to ask calmly, "Jiaojiao, what are you doing here?"

"The message last night was from me. So, how was it? Did you enjoy watching Beiqi and me in the car? Did it get you all worked up?"

Jiaojiao's words were calm, yet they shattered Yuhan.

Yuhan felt like a stone was lodged in her chest, and her throat tasted bitter, as if she might cough up blood at any moment. But she couldn't let that happen. She couldn't let Jiaojiao see her pain. Watching Jiaojiao strut like a victorious rooster, Yuhan suddenly found her composure. Just like handling an emergency at work, she hid all her emotional turmoil, sat down, and stared directly at Jiaojiao.

Jiaojiao, seeing Yuhan's silence, began to lose her cool. "Yuhan, don't you get it? Beiqi and I have been together for a while now, and I'm pregnant with his child."

"Yuhan, weren't you always so strong? What happened? Last night, you didn't even have the guts to confront us?"

Yuhan's face turned pale at these words. "He doesn't love me... does that mean he loves you?"

Even she couldn't convince herself with that. Deep down, she knew the truth about Beiqi's feelings.

"Of course! Beiqi said your marriage was just a deal. He never loved you, and even if he married you, he wouldn't touch you!"

Moo Yuhan sneered, "Yeah, his lies to girls are all the same, his ways of deceiving are all the same. Do you really think he loves you? I feel sorry for this child because he'll share the same fate as his mother—your fate—becoming an illegitimate child, hidden away."

Jiaojiao lunged at Yuhan, furiously trying to scratch her face. "Who are you calling illegitimate? Who are you calling a nobody? What right do you have to talk about my mother?"

Yuhan didn't just stand there and take it. She dodged while mocking Jiaojiao, though the movement tugged at her injury from the day before, causing a dull pain.

"I have no right? Jiaojiao, your mother was a loose woman, and you were born out of wedlock. Everyone in the Moo family knows these scandals. I just didn't expect you to be so much like her!"

Hearing this, the madness in Jiaojiao's eyes intensified. She didn't even bother to argue, acting like a wild woman as she lunged at Yuhan, her hands desperately trying to scratch Yuhan's face.

Yuhan calmly blocked her, then seized the moment to push her away forcefully. Jiaojiao crashed into the couch, still trying to recover. But before she could retaliate, Yuhan had already grabbed her hair tightly.

Yuhan slapped her twice, then looked down at her with a cold expression. "Did you really think I wouldn't hit you? Jiaojiao, you're overestimating yourself. This house you're in is still mine, and you're just an illegitimate child of the Moo family. Now get out, and don't let me see you again, got it?"
