The Cold-Hearted Heir Takes His Cousin's Heart by Force

Fake siblings + forced possession + groveling redemption At fifteen, Su Wanqing entered the marquis’s household with her mother, Shen Yuwei. She blossomed into a graceful, lovely young woman, and believed that the only comfort she would ever have in life was the Third Prince, her gentle, spring-breeze-like ideal man. But her aloof, dangerously unhinged elder brother, Xiao Yanci, had already come to regard her as his own, allowing no one else to covet her. He destroyed her marriage prospects and forced himself on her on the eve of her wedding. When she pleaded for her beloved, he only sneered, “What do you have to bargain with me?” For the sake of her ideal man, she was forced to submit and imprisoned in the household, becoming his alone. Then, during a great fire, she fled with a child in her belly and vanished completely. Three years later, in a small Jiangnan town, the canary of the past had become a pastry seller with a little one in tow. And the man who once held power over the court now knelt before her, eyes red as he begged, “Qingqing, come home with me.” The heroine suffers first, then the hero. Pure historical romance, no golden finger, happy ending. Read with caution.
