Chapter 267: Cutting off an Old Friend (2)

Gong Yimo was unable to avoid Li Ke's unwavering gaze. In the end, she laughed, "I'll eat it!"

Seeing that she really swallowed the pill, the feminine man was about to go back on his words, when he was suddenly suppressed by Li Ke!

"Jian Xi, don't forget who is in charge here!"

And you are only a dead man, nothing more!

Jian Xi narrowed his gloomy eyes and glanced at the indifferent Gong Yimo. He said coldly, "If anything happens, you can't escape the blame."

Li Ke laughed coldly, "That's why nothing will happen!"Visit no(v)eLb(i)n.com for the best novel reading experience

Gong Yimo raised her brows in confusion as she continued to listen to him speak.

"Do you know how I'm currently living?"

Gong Yimo said faintly, "Aren't you living outstandingly with all the power and wealth you can have?" She remembered that Li Ke has an older brother, he had always wanted to surpass his older brother. His family was strict, and his father was afraid that his two sons would fight each other, so he only supported his eldest son.

Li Ke smiled palely, a snowflake fell on his face, but it didn't melt, just like his heart which had long entered the depths of hell.

"Since I was young, I've been more outstanding than my older brother...we were both his legitimate sons. But because he was born before me, father has always supported him. He would always assist my older brother because he was looking forward to the day that older brother will take over the family and bring honor to the family. Humph...just based on that idiot?"

He didn't know martial arts, yet he only wore a thin layer of clothes in this weather. Even his voice was trembling as he spoke; Gong Yimo didn't know whether his voice was trembling because of the cold or resentment towards his father.

"And I...strived to improve myself. Since he didn't help me, I relied on myself. As a result, I became a scholar at the age of eleven. After seven years, I placed second in the Hanlin examination, and was able to enter the Hanlin Academy...

I had put in so much effort, studying day and night, and merely became a seven rank minor official! But my older brother, who doesn't have any ability, became a fifth rank official just because of my father's support!"

"Why? We're both his sons, yet why was he also so partial towards my older brother even though I'm the one who has the ability? If I was able to switch places with him, I would have definitely been able to accomplish my goals and bring pride to my family!"

"That was all until I met you!"
