When I was nine years old, my parents were involved in an accident, and they both died, leaving behind a large sum of compensation money.

From then on, it was only me and my elder brother on our own.

At the age of eighteen, I failed the university entrance examination. My brother asked me to work at his pharmaceutical factory, but I declined.

Also during that year, my elder brother brought home a woman, and they quickly got married.

This lady was both gentle and gorgeous, everyone said my brother must have saved the galaxy in his past life.

I was truly glad for my brother's fortune.

On the day my brother and sister-in-law got married, I enlisted in the military and didn't even get to take a sip of the wedding wine.

Once I left, it was for three years.

During these three years, I rarely contacted home; both my brother and I were busy.

The day I was demobilized, I excitedly dressed in my military uniform and boarded the train, wanting to give my brother a surprise.

Unexpectedly, a phone call came in and stunned me with a bolt from the blue.

"Xiaoxuan, your brother is dead." My sister-in-law choked on the words through the phone.

I rushed home frantically, and it was my sister-in-law who opened the door for me.

After a three-year absence, my sister-in-law has changed a lot.

The always pure sister-in-law now wore makeup and had a touch of worldly sophistication.

Even so, my sister-in-law was still very attractive.

Soft, flowing hair over her shoulders, a melon seed-shaped face, enticing eyes that were like a silken thread, bright cherry lips, all these aspects fortified her beauty.

Her figure now was even more mature than before.

The prominent bosom before her incited attention. Her slender waist carried her shapely buttocks that seemed to fidget restlessly, teasing one's heartbeat.

The pair of dazzling long legs, straight, slim, and fair, were very eye-catching.

Her attire was also sexy.

She draped herself in snowy white filial clothes, but inside, she was only wearing a purple bra.

Her chest was generously opened, revealing delicate collarbones and vast whiteness, as if she was afraid others might not admire her "capital."

Her hem was nearly a vacuum, the alluring pair of legs semi-visible with each step which could hook one's soul.

Noticing all of this, I grew silently worried: my sister-in-law had changed.

"Xiao Xuan, you're finally back," she said, her tears flowed rapidly as though they had been fermenting as soon as she spotted me.

She clung around my waist, buried her face on my chest, sobbing. "I don't know what to do when you're not around, I just can't take it."

Her voice was so desolate, as if she had suffered a great injustice.

Feeling her tender body in my arms, my body immediately reacted.

I'm already twenty-one, at the peak of my youth, yet my sister-in-law still treated me as a child.

"Sister-in-law." I gently pushed her away, "I need to see my brother."

"Mm, I'll accompany you." She nodded obediently and instinctively looped her arm around mine.

As she walked beside me, she looked at me with affectionate eyes.

"Xiaoxuan, you're all grown up now." A seductive smile appeared on her face as she leaned slightly against my arm, her full chest brushing against it.

I just smiled and said nothing.

I figured the reason my sister-in-law was acting this way was due to her newly-wed status.

I didn't think too much about her strange behavior. She had always been kind to me in the past, so I didn't want to question her actions with ill intentions.

When we reached the memorial hall, I was immediately brought to my knees by seeing the urn of ashes.

Seeing all that remained of my older brother, who doted on me like a father, my heart was filled with unbearable grief.

"Sister-in-law, how did my brother die?" I asked with a heavy heart.

"He succumbed to a terrible disease." Tears welled up in her eyes as she quietly sobbed, "We sought help from many places and they all said it was incurable, so..."

She broke off and wept openly.

She knelt beside me, burying her face in my chest.

Seeing my sister-in-law like this, I didn't press the matter further. But I was plagued by doubts.

My brother and I were both sturdy men, standing at around 1.8 meters tall. How could he have contracted such a severe disease so easily?

After hastily finishing dinner, I sat and rested in my room.

My room has long been cleaned by my sister-in-law. It's as if she knew I would return home.

I shook my head, negating my own speculation.

I think my sister-in-law is just treating me too well, taking the time to tidy up my room.

Clatter…

When I was lost in my thoughts, my sister-in-law pushed open my door.

"Xiao Xuan, you only had a little food earlier, are you still hungry? I made a bowl of noodles for you," my sister-in-law said with a smile.

Her voice is still as mild as a spring breeze.

"Thank you sister-in-law, I'm not hungry, you can eat it," I said politely, but I was feeling nervous inside.

My sister-in-law took off her mourning clothes and put on a blush-colored camisole nightgown.

Her rounded shoulders and delicate collarbones were exposed, making the atmosphere in the room instantly agitated.

Her long ivory legs were completely exposed, leaving nothing hidden.

And her full, firm chest, I could even see two protruding points.

"What is sister-in-law trying to do?" I was secretly alarmed, struggling to control my wandering gaze.

"How can you not eat?" My sister-in-law, not giving up, shoved the noodles into my hands, grumbled, "Are you still being polite with your sister-in-law? Hurry up and finish this for me, or else I won't let you get off easy."

As she speaks, my sister-in-law wraps her arms around mine in a flirtatious manner, giving it a gentle squeeze.

This sudden move sends a wave of surprise through my heart.

I can't help but feel that my sister-in-law isn't here to deliver this food, but rather to flirt with me.

"Alright then," I say, reluctantly accepting the bowl of food and efficiently cleaning it in no time.

"There you go!" says my sister-in-law, as she takes the now-empty bowl from my hands with a tender giggle, poking a finger against my forehead.

Her antics are unnerving, making me feel rather restless.

I can't shake off the fact that my sister-in-law is being excessively affectionate towards me.

After all, I am her brother-in-law. Her behavior could easily be seen as inappropriate.

I thought she would leave after delivering the food, but to my surprise, my sister-in-law shows no intention of leaving.

She places the bowl aside and settles down beside me on the bed, mere inches separating us.

"Little Xuan, the military must be tough," my sister-in-law muses, gazing at me seductively.

"You get used to it," I respond uncomfortably.

Her gaze is intense, making me feel uneasy.

"Ah, it's hard for me too," my sister-in-law sighs, resting her head casually on my shoulder. "Your brother has changed these past few years, indulging in alcohol, gambling, and prostitution. His behavior is causing chaos at home."

"Really?" I express in disbelief.

"My brother is an open-hearted and optimistic young man. It's hard for me to believe, when my sister-in-law says he engages in disgraceful deeds."

"Could your sister-in-law deceive you?" My sister-in-law's delicate body pushed against mine. "No matter how I advise your brother, he just won't listen. What can your sister-in-law do?"

"Your sister-in-law is just a woman who can't take on heavy burdens or offer much help. If I could have done more for your brother, he wouldn't have ended up like this." With these words, she started crying again.

"Perhaps this is fate," I offered vaguely.

"Your sister-in-law is destined to endure a lonely life," she lamented deeply following my words. "Your brother has been having affairs these past years and he hasn't even touched me."

As she spoke, my sister-in-law reached and pulled my hand towards her chest...
