[Rekindled love + mutual secret crush + groveling pursuit]
Obsessive, scheming man in a position of power vs rebellious, aloof beauty
-
Ever since they were children, whenever danger threatened, Fu Sili would stand by her side and protect her. Her parents ignored her; he was the only one who looked after her.
Fu Wanzhi was never a well-behaved girl. She defied convention and confessed to him without a second thought.
The man before her hears her out, then lets out a soft, mocking laugh, his gaze cool and distant. "You like your big brother? Doesn't that disgust you?"
The next day, she is heartlessly sent abroad for eight years, with no contact at all during that time.
Eight years later, she returns from overseas and keeps to the proper boundaries, never crossing the line. But he has changed in some ways.
Then he catches her on a date with someone else. The man who once called her feelings disgusting corners her at the doorway after drinking, his eyes red.
"Didn't you say you'd always love your big brother?"
"I was wrong. How about you keep loving your big brother?"
If friends and work make up five percent of her life, then the other ninety-nine percent is Fu Sili.
And his life is one hundred percent her.
But this has all been her plan from the start. If she's unhappy, then he can be unhappy too.
I'll torment you and hate you, but I love you too.
Ugh, how should I put it? I think I'll keep watching, but I really can't stand it anymore. The male lead and the female supporting character got a marriage certificate, even though I know they don't have feelings for each other. It feels like every time the female lead brings it up, the male lead just seems completely unmoved. I can't see any real pain or distress from him.
Few people have rated this book. Overall, I feel that the male protagonist wants to shoulder everything alone, to seize power, and then clear all obstacles for the female protagonist. Only when there are no obstacles can he feel at ease being with her. However, the female protagonist is unaware of all his thoughts.
Ah, I only realized after rating it that I'd read another book by the same author before. At the beginning, I thought the male lead's feelings for the female lead wouldn't be discovered for a long time, but it turns out both leads are ruthless. Anyway, it's a very good read. The female leads in the author's works all have their own ideas and are very assertive.
Where does the famous line, "Didn't I always like my brother? I was wrong. Please continue to like my brother," appear? I watched the whole thing and didn't see it.
I won't say much, it's just really good-looking. It's not a problem with my attitude, but I genuinely don't know how to describe it and am afraid my words will be too superficial.
This is a super good novel, I highly recommend it!
It's really good! The only problem is that the male and female leads didn't have any words at the beginning, which caused a lot of misunderstandings! But thankfully, they're both very clever and able to figure out each other's intentions from the misunderstandings, leading to a happy ending! Definitely worth watching!
I just wanted to ask the author if the male lead is chaste, or is it not bad?
At first, I didn't add this book to my bookshelf, thinking I'd just read a little bit first. But once I started, I couldn't put it down! The author's writing is truly superb! 👍👍
It's good to read, I enjoy reading it, and the author is fine too.
