The Handbook for Taming the Rebellious

Fu Yunxi is twenty-two, calm and self-possessed. He made a name for himself in business at a young age and is the Fu family’s most outstanding heir. Ning Xingle, fifteen, is the younger brother his parents adopted. Rebellious and unruly, he gets terrible grades and is always causing trouble at school, giving the Fu elders endless headaches. His parents have spoiled him too much, and in the end, no one can control Ning Xingle. But there’s nothing he’s afraid of, except for his stern, unsmiling older brother. Fu Yunxi never lets him get away with anything: every mistake earns a punishment, and he never goes easy on him. Talk back to a teacher? Punished! Skip class and get into a fight? Punished! Lie and deceive someone? Punished even more severely! Every time Ning Xingle gets into trouble, Fu Yunxi disciplines him harshly. Yet Ning Xingle depends on his brother, afraid of him but unable to resist drawing close. And behind Fu Yunxi’s cold exterior, he cares about his younger brother more than anyone. He just never says so.
