On the weekend, I returned home as agreed.

The one who opened the door was Xu Mengyao.

She didn't look good, her face was pale, and she looked haggard. In just a few days, she had lost a lot of weight.

It was clear that she had been suffering under Gu Jie's torment these past few days.

"Oh, Mengyao, how did you hurt your hand? Such a big blister, is it a burn?"

I looked at Xu Mengyao's hand and pretended to be surprised.

When Xu Mengyao used to live with me, she was delicate and pampered, never doing any work and keeping her hands soft.

But these days, Gu Jie didn't like takeout.

So, he made Xu Mengyao cook.

The blisters on her hands were all from being burned by oil.

"Sis, you finally came." Xu Mengyao's eyes were teary as she spoke.

It was clear what kind of days she had been having.

I nodded and walked in with a cake.

Today's meal was very sumptuous, with five dishes and a soup.

Gu Jie definitely deserved some credit for training Xu Mengyao's cooking skills so well.

"Mengyao, Sister wishes you a happy birthday." I looked at Xu Mengyao, with a gentle smile on my face.

Xu Mengyao poured me a drink and offered it to me: "Sis, thank you."

I stared at the drink in her cup and didn't take it.

"Mengyao, are you really asking me to drink this?"

I had seen in the surveillance footage that Gu Jie had poured a packet of white powder into the drink.

Xu Mengyao pretended not to know: "Of course, on my birthday, can't I have a drink to celebrate? Sis, what's wrong with you? Why are you so hesitant to drink?"

She pouted: "This was sent to me by a fan, if you weren't my own sister, I wouldn't have the heart to offer it to you."

I looked at her, unmoved, and didn't take the cup of alcohol.

Time passed minute by minute.

Gu Jie, who was getting impatient, suddenly stood up, making the chair creak loudly.

"Stop beating around the bush, it's annoying." He snatched the drink from Xu Mengyao and walked towards me, grinning: "Your sister was right, you really are prettier than her, and your figure is much better too."

He looked at me, then at Xu Mengyao, and burst into laughter.

"I never thought I, Gu Jie, would have a day like this, enjoying a pair of sisters. Hahaha... I, Gu Jie, have this day!"

Xu Mengyao's face turned ashen, she looked at Gu Jie in disbelief: "Didn't you promise me that you would let me go when my sister arrived?"
