Chapter 315: Chapter 315
The poison in Jin Yao was cured by some unknown method.
With her stomach better, she still looked like a cute little female and happily ran towards Jin Kun, throwing herself directly into his arms.
But this time, Jin Kun felt a clear discomfort and unease.
Jin Yao, taken aback and confused, asked, "Third Brother, what’s wrong? Are you in a bad mood?"
Jin Kun frowned and spoke with a stern, cold tone, "Yao Yao, even if we are siblings, we are grown up now, and we should keep our distance."
Avoid? Avoid what? How could she leech off their top-tier luck if she avoided him?
Jin Yao said with a smile, "Third Brother, we are siblings, and we’ve always been close . What is there to avoid?"
As she spoke, Jin Yao reached for his hand, but Jin Kun knocked it away.
Jin Yao’s face turned red all at once.
It was as if Jin Kun had slapped her in the face.
Damn it! She had been so kind to Third Brother, and yet this is how he treated her!
Jin Kun looked at Jin Yao and said, "Yao Yao, I am male, and you are female. We are not blood-related, and I have no intention of pairing with you."
Jin Kun’s words were much more distant. Jin Yao paused momentarily. "Third Brother, what are you talking about? We are siblings; what’s wrong with being close?"
Jin Kun stared at her expressionlessly. "I have something to ask you."
Jin Yao said uneasily, "Third Brother, if you have something to ask, just ask directly. Why look at me ? It’s making Yao Yao a bit scared... Do you... do you not like Yao Yao anymore? Don’t you love Yao Yao anymore?"
Jin Kun felt a tangle of complex emotions in his heart. Part of him was drawn to let Jin Yao close, while another part reminded him to be sensible, to be sensible.
Jin Kun asked, "Do you know about Bi Yao’s Golden Ear Beast?"
Jin Yao’s eyelids twitched slightly.
Why was it that they had only mentioned Bi Yao during the day, and now they were talking about Bi Yao’s Golden Ear Beast at night?
She smiled and said, "I know. The little Golden Ear Beast is so fluffy and adorable."
Facing this sister whom he had grown up with and spoiled for who knows how many years, Jin Kun was very direct in his questioning.
"Bi Yao’s Golden Ear Beast is dead, did you know?"
"Dead? Impossible! Didn’t I just see him with a Golden Ear Beast a while ago?"
Jin Kun said, "The previous one."
"The previous one?" Jin Yao became nervous instantly.
Bi Yao was a natural Golden Dragon, dazzling and eye-catching from the moment he was born.
Even the pronunciation of his name, Yao, was the same as hers—Yao.
Why should her real name be "dirt egg"?
She was just an earthworm female. If it weren’t for the good luck of seizing the original Jin Yao’s fate, she would have been left eating dirt.
All the other Golden Dragons were grown, and she couldn’t touch them, but Bi Yao was different; he was just a little cub.
She was jealous of him; she couldn’t stand to see him happy.
Didn’t he like the Golden Ear Beast? Wasn’t it his precious Golden Ear Beast?
Well, then she’d let him taste for himself how delicious his precious was.
With a guilty conscience, she said, "Third Brother, did Fifth Brother say something? You mustn’t believe him; you know he has never liked me!"
Jin Yao’s demeanor was unmistakably off.
Watching Jin Yao act , Jin Kun grew increasingly certain about who had killed the Golden Ear Beast.
He also became gradually disappointed.
"You killed Bi Yao’s Little Guoguo?"
"You even misled him into eating Little Guoguo?"
"Do you even realize that Little Guoguo wasn’t originally called Little Guoguo? Bi Yao was a twin at birth, and he lost his twin brother when they were young. His brother’s pet name was Guoguo. Bi Yao, missing his brother deeply, gave the Golden Ear Beast that name."
Jin Kun raged, "Do you know what that Golden Ear Beast meant to him?!"
Facing Jin Kun’s roar, Jin Yao couldn’t adapt at once. She shouted back, "But aren’t Golden Ear Beasts raised to be eaten? The Shi Bai family also raised one when I was little, and in the end, it was eaten too! Besides, it’s just a pet, and I’m the Dragon Princess! What’s wrong with me eating a pet? How dare you yell at me over a mere pet?!"
Jin Yao’s head buzzed. She covered her face, then looked up at Jin Kun in disbelief. ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ N0v3l.Fiɾe.net
"Third Brother... It was just a pet..." she cried out. "You hit me over a pet..."
Jin Kun’s fists tightened bit by bit.
He had said so much, yet Jin Yao didn’t seem to understand what she had done wrong at all.
He even felt bewildered.
The foster sister he had doted on for so many years—what exactly had he been indulging?
"Third Brother..." Jin Yao, who was still throwing a tantrum, keenly sensed that Jin Kun’s attitude had cooled.
"You don’t dote on me anymore? You don’t want me anymore? Because of Bi Yao? No, because of Si Yan?"
"You’ve found out Si Yan is better than me, so you want her and not me?"
Jin Yao cried out, "Yao Yao and Si Yan are different; Yao Yao isn’t a real Dragon Princess. If you don’t want Yao Yao, then Yao Yao truly has nothing!"
"Third Brother, I was wrong, Yao Yao was wrong, it’s all my fault. Please don’t be angry, don’t abandon Yao Yao. Don’t be mad. You are Yao Yao’s Third Brother; you’re Yao Yao’s Third Brother!"
"Third Brother, it’s because of Si Yan, isn’t it? Because Si Yan is your blood sister, and I’m just your foster sister, so you got angry at me just because of a pet, right?"
"If Si Yan had done this, if it were her, you definitely wouldn’t be mad at her! Because she’s your blood sister and I’m just your foster sister. No matter how well or how much I do, it can’t make up for a tiny mistake, can it?!!"
"All of you, one after another, are biased. Yao Yao has nothing; Yao Yao just wants familial love, wants her brothers to love her. What’s wrong with Yao Yao?!"
Jin Kun lifted his head and closed his eyes, an overwhelming wave of disappointment flooding his heart.
After he had collected all his emotions, he stepped forward and seized Jin Yao’s chin.
"You got one thing right. Even if my blood sister had done this, I wouldn’t have easily forgiven her. Let alone you, who are merely a foster sister."
Jin Kun stared into Jin Yao’s shocked and frightened eyes. That inexplicable emotional tie he harbored snapped at that instant.
In that moment, Jin Kun felt his mind clear considerably.
"Jin Yao. No, Tuo Dan. Are you the Dragon Princess? Have you finally seen yourself for what you truly are?"
"Third Brother?" Jin Yao suddenly felt scared. "Third Brother!!"
"Third Brother, why? Have I not treated you well? Why are you treating me ?!"
"It must be Si Yan! Ever since Si Yan appeared, Fifth Brother doesn’t want me, Fourth Brother also doesn’t want me, and now even you, Third Brother... even you don’t want me anymore! It’s all her fault, all because of her!!"
During the confrontation with Jin Yao, Jin Kun gradually became more lucid, and he began to see her true colors clearly.
"Tuo Dan, the ones you call Fifth Brother, Fourth Brother, and even myself were originally Si Yan’s brothers. So how can her taking back what belongs to her be considered harming you?"
