Reborn as a heiress, she transforms into a ruthless vengeful woman.

Chapter 179: One knife cuts two

"I'm your sister, I can tolerate you once or twice, but I'm not a bitter person! Don't take all your anger out on me!"

After Ye Xinghe finished speaking, she was about to leave her seat when Ye Shuang stopped her, saying, "Don't go yet! I haven't finished speaking!"

"I'm asking you, why did Chu Mofan suddenly propose to you today?! What have you two been talking about lately?! How did you seduce him?!"

"Ye Shuang, did you see this glass of wine?" Ye Xinghe's slender fingers caressed the base of the wine glass, her expression icy cold. "I'm trying my best to control myself and not spill it on your face. So you'd better stop now and watch your mouth! Don't ask any more brainless questions!"

"Otherwise, your outfit today would be wasted."

Ye Shuang's face turned bright red with anger. "Why did it suddenly turn into a marriage proposal when we were having a perfectly good conversation and our relationship was just about to be officially confirmed?!"

Ye Xinghe opened her phone and casually tossed it in front of Ye Shuang. "Ye Shuang, see for yourself. I don't want to explain this to you anymore."

Ye Shuang scrolled through their chat history; it was mostly Chu Mofan initiating contact with Ye Xinghe. Ye Xinghe mostly didn't reply, only occasionally giving a perfunctory response.

"Then why did he tell me that he had no choice but to propose to you? He had no other option."

Ye Xinghe was speechless, looking away. "Ye Shuang, think about it carefully. When you confessed to him, did he explicitly reject you?! When he proposed to me, did I say yes?!"

"Chu Mofan was stringing you along while proposing to me with a fake ring. He was clearly toying with us two sisters and trying to sow discord between us. How can you not understand that!"

"I just don't understand!" Ye Shuang's eyes widened as she glared fiercely at Ye Xinghe. "Why did Chu Mofan lie to me?! If you hadn't been instigating this behind my back, why would he suddenly treat me like this?!"

Ye Xinghe snorted coldly, "So you'd rather believe an outsider than your sister, right?"

Having said all that, there was no need for her to continue the conversation with Ye Shuang. This person was stubborn and unreasonable, and saying more would be a waste of breath.

Ye Xinghe was about to leave again when Ye Shuang stopped her once more.

Ye Xinghe could no longer control her temper and said coldly, "Ye Shuang, I'm warning you. I've only tolerated you because you're my sister! If it were anyone else, I would have wanted to slap you hard the moment you started picking out your clothes."

"To be honest, your birthday has nothing to do with me. As long as you're happy, I'll do my best to accommodate you. Whether I'm happy or not really doesn't matter. It only happens once a year, so I'll do my best to accommodate you!"

"But if you continue to act so unreasonably, my patience is limited. If I do something excessive, don't blame me."

Ye Xinghe left for the third time, this time Ye Shuang grabbed her waist-length hair, "Ye Xinghe, don't be so arrogant in front of me! I'm just being unreasonable, what can you do to me?!"

"If you don't explain your relationship with Chu Mofan clearly today, I'm not done with you yet."

Ye Xinghe closed her eyes slightly, her heart filled with an icy chill, as if she had fallen into a sub-zero ice cave. She knew that her younger sister was beyond saving.

Ye Xingchen rushed over and grabbed Ye Shuang's wrist. "Ye Shuang, let go right now! Can't you talk things out properly?"

Ye Shuang said defiantly, "I won't let go! You two siblings outnumber me, are you bullying me?"

Ye Xinghe felt a sharp pain in her scalp and took two steps back. "Second brother, you don't need to worry about it. This is between her and me. I can handle it myself."

At this moment, the others at the table also heard the commotion and looked over.

At first, I thought the two sisters were just joking, but after observing for a while, I realized that they had actually started fighting.

Father Ye said anxiously, "Xiao Shuang, you can tell your uncle what's wrong. Your uncle will make the decision for you. Please let go of my hand first."

Zhuang Xiuqing quickly walked over and scolded, "Ye Xinghe, can't you be a little more considerate of your sister?! It's her birthday today, how can you bully her like this! Can't you even put up with it for one day?"

Ye Xinghe looked up. "Are those two things under your eyebrows for breathing? Can't you see who's bullying whom?"

Zhuang Xiuqing had no intention of persuading Ye Shuang to let go; instead, she encouraged her from the side, "Our little Shuang is usually so well-behaved and sensible, how could she pull your hair for no reason?"

"For her to do this, you must have provoked her!"

"You little rascal, you're always so sharp-tongued and unforgiving. Xiao Shuang must have been really angry to do that."

Ye Xinghe glanced to the side, then reached for the knife on the table. She turned slightly and slashed at Ye Shuang's hair, the blade just grazing her hand, startling Ye Shuang into quickly letting go.

"Ye Xinghe, are you crazy! Are you going to cut me with a knife?"

As soon as the words were spoken, a strand of hair fell to the ground.

Ye Xinghe held the knife, coldly staring at Ye Shuang. She knew that their sisterly relationship, like this strand of hair, was severed from this moment on.

Ye Xinghe glanced at Zhuang Xiuqing, then looked at Ye Shuang, "Your mother is right. Not only am I unforgiving when I'm right, but I also make sure others acknowledge my reasoning even when I'm wrong!"

Ye Xinghe stroked the blade and said in a low voice, "Ye Shuang, I just reminded you that my patience has its limits."

Then, she leaned close to Ye Shuang's ear and whispered, "I'm letting you know again. I've reached my limit. Get ready, this lock of hair of mine didn't come for nothing."

Ye Xinghe smiled slyly and patted Ye Shuang on the shoulder. Then she casually tied her hair into a bun at the back of her head and left the dining table.

Mother Ye quickly followed and asked with concern:

"Hehe, what happened between you and Ye Shuang? Why did you cut your hair?"

Ye Xinghe said sullenly, "She's being unreasonable. She keeps pressing me to tell me why Chu Mofan proposed to me."

Ye's mother stroked Ye Xinghe's hair tenderly, "You can't cut your hair like that, you were too impulsive. Now it's all different lengths, what kind of look is this?"

“If she won’t let go, we can’t let her keep holding on like that. The knife isn’t sharp, it’ll just cut off a small strand of hair, and it’ll grow back slowly.” Ye Xinghe said in a relaxed tone, comforting her, “Mom, don’t worry. It’s normal for sisters to have disagreements. Why don’t you go out and have dinner with Grandpa? I’ll be by myself for a while.”

No sooner had Ye's mother left than Qiao Lin approached.

Ye Xinghe looked up at her, a deep ruthlessness appearing in her eyes.

"Qiao Lin, go and buy me a pair of hair clippers."

I want it tonight.
