My Lady, Don't Be Angry. The Chief Councillor Knows He Was Wrong

An Unconventional Palace Intrigue

Eight-year age gap - devoted love - both are each other's first - a husband with a fatherly air

"Hello, older brother!"

Fu Jin'an: "..."

At first, he treated her like a younger sister from another prominent family, intending to find her a good match once she came of age. But later, as Fu Jin'an watched the little girl grow into an increasingly radiant beauty, he couldn't remember when he had started finding her young male classmates so irritating.

"Didn't you say you were my older brother?"
