Yan Lichuan was Yan Xiruo’s brother. He was big, tall, and handsome. He always tried to make his family lead a better life through his own efforts. However, he always failed in his investments. Recently, he’d become slimmer and more haggard. The woman who was holding Yan Lichuan’s arm was her sister-in-law, Chu Keren. She looked just like her name — pretty and pleasant. When she curved her lips and smiled, there was a brilliant glow in her eyes.

Chu Keren was wearing a yellow knee-length dress. She had an exquisite figure. Her curly, burgundy hair was draped over her shoulders, making her little face look more delicate.

If Yan Xiruo was said to be as pure and beautiful as a lotus, then Chu Keren was a red rose in full bloom. Whenever she moved and smiled, she would strongly exude femininity.

Compared to her brother’s gentleness and kindness, Chu Keren’s temperament seemed to be more demonic and arrogant. In this family, aside from her brother, she pretty much ignored everyone else.

Yan Xiruo and her parents were happy for him for having married his beloved woman. They didn’t particularly care about Chu Keren’s attitude. As long as her brother was happy, that was enough.

After greeting his mother, Yan Lichuan strode over to Yan Xiruo. He embraced Yan Xiruo’s slender shoulders and asked with concern, “Is he treating you well?”

Looking at the brother who cared and doted on her, Yan Xiruo didn’t want him to get worried. She curved her lips and said, “Pretty good.”

Chu Keren walked to the living room. Her agile and beautiful eyes seemed to be looking at Lu Jingchen inadvertently. Lu Jingchen was also looking at her. After both of them exchanged gazes for a few seconds, they looked away with complicated feelings.

After Yan Xiruo and Yan Lichuan chatted for a while, they went to the kitchen to help their mother prepare lunch. Although Chu Keren was the Yan family’s daughter-in-law, she never stepped into the kitchen. There was once when Yan Xiruo’s mother called her in to help. However, she said with disdain that she hated the smell of oil and smoke the most. After that, Yan Xiruo’s mother stopped calling her.

…

During the meal, Chu Keren smiled and said to everyone, “Father, Mother, Lichuan. I have a piece of good news to share with everyone. I found a job and can contribute to the family now.”

Yan Lichuan frowned slightly. “Didn’t you not want to work?”

Chu Keren picked up a paper towel and wiped the corners of her lips elegantly. Her smile deepened. “Your investment has failed recently and Mother’s not well. Unlike Xiruo, I don’t have the luck to lead the life of a young mistress at home.”

Hearing Chu Keren mentioning her, Yan Xiruo tightened her grip on the chopsticks. She laughed at herself in her heart. This young mistress was probably the saddest in the world!

“It’s a good thing that Keren has found a job! Where are you working? How much are you going to be paid per month?” Yan Xiruo’s father interrupted.

Chu Keren gave a side glance to Lu Jingchen, who was sitting diagonally opposite her, with her gentle eyes. Her foot under the table climbed up the man’s thigh bit by bit. “Brother-in-law’s lacking a secretary and my qualifications suit the role. As for salary, he said that if I do a good job, he will give me a bonus.”

When Chu Keren was speaking, Yan Xiruo felt that her thigh was itchy. She lowered her head and saw from the corner of her eye a slim and delicate foot retracting quickly.

Chu Keren didn’t expect that she would rub against the wrong person. She panicked for a while, then quickly calmed down. She looked at Yan Xiruo with a smile and said calmly, “Xiruo, after the meal, I have a gift for you!”

Yan Xiruo thought of Chu Keren’s circling motions on her thigh just now and felt puzzled. She lifted her long eyelashes and looked at Chu Keren, who looked charming between the eyebrows. She smiled and said calmly, “Thank you, Sister-in-law.”
