Synopsis

[Complete] Brother who dotes on his sister + sweet romance + cozy moments

Xiao Yu couldn’t understand why his younger sister was so set on marrying beneath her. The top scholar came from a poor family and had no connections, power, or influence. Marrying him would mean a life of hardship, with no telling how many years she’d have to wait before things got better. His sister had far better options.

Until he fell for the top scholar’s precious younger sister.

He would do whatever it took to make her his.

After transmigrating four years ago, Qin Huan had kept her head down and behaved. But her first trip to a brothel ended in a murder case, and she was hauled off to the Northern Garrison Office.

Qin Huan: I’ve learned my lesson. Please let me go.

Later, she meets the notorious commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard in the courtyard of her own home.

Xiao Yu: “As we’re about to become family, you should call me big brother.”

Qin Huan, meekly: “Big brother…”

Will someone explain why the sister her brother has eloped with is the younger sister of this fearsome man?!

Later, when Xiao Yu hears she is going to marry someone else, his eyes redden. He holds her down and begs in a low voice, “Huanhuan, don’t call me big brother. Don’t call me big brother… Marry me, okay?”

What do you do when the brother-in-law who’s always treated you coldly takes an interest in your younger sister?

Qin Ce: “Let me think… how exactly did you stop me from marrying your sister?”

A sweet romance novel. Qin Ce was a scumbag in his past life, but after being reborn, he made amends in this life, living happily with Xiao Yingge. The female lead has two loving fathers. Although her family loves her very much in this life, I think it's because she's very good at making money after transmigrating at a young age, building a business empire and changing her family's impoverished…

It's really good. Actually, what touched me the most was the modern father who went back to ancient times to find his daughter. This was the most touching and unexpected thing for me. Compared to romantic love, family love is probably more moving.

The ending is satisfying. The main focus is on the romance between the male and female leads, and the male lead's battle of wits with his brother-in-law (haha). Those who like female leads should really enjoy it. The female lead is lively and her advantages are all in the background.

It's so well written, everyone has confessed. The female lead is so lucky! She has a big family who love and care for her, her brother is reborn and protects his sister, and she herself has found happiness. 🥰 The male protagonist and his sister have finally found happiness after all their hardships, and their subordinates are all doing well. The older brother makes things difficult for the younger brother 😆 The female lead's father also time-traveled. A happy ending

Qin Huan VS Xiao Yu, female lead's brother VS male lead's sister (I forgot the name ૮₍ɵ̷ɵ̷̥̥᷅₎ა) The female protagonist transmigrates, and her brother is reborn. The male and female leads are quite likable, and their relationship develops pretty quickly.

The rating could be higher; I think it's quite good, and the characters are well-developed. As for the side stories… I can only say that everything is a choice, and that's life. If you make a wrong choice, it's good to cut your losses. It's good that Xiaoru can get married and move on. As for the irritable general…

Putting aside the character design, the plot alone had me laughing my head off. Other small details were also well done, the characters were excellent, the male and female leads were both wise and clearly the kind of people who put the country first, and the supporting characters were also fleshed out. In short, highly recommended!

It's quite good. People are all captivated by love, but reality often falls short of expectations. Novels are truly mesmerizing.
