The Eldest Senior Brother’s Daoist Heart Is in Turmoil

Rong Shiyan, senior disciple of Beichen Martial Academy and its heir apparent. Everyone said he and his childhood friend, his junior sister, were a match made in heaven. When she smiled and asked him, “Does this mean we're together now?” Rong Shiyan looked into her eyes and nodded. He thought that protecting her and taking care of her must be what love was. Until a girl named Shu Luoning appeared. The daughter of a traitor from the Netherworld Palace, she arrived at Beichen on the brink of death. Fragile and quiet, she was shunned by everyone for her dishonorable origins. He should have ignored her. But whenever he saw her pale face, he would unconsciously clutch his sleeve. When he heard rumors about her, he couldn't help speaking up to silence them. His junior sister linked her arm through his and asked curiously, “Senior Brother, why are you always looking at her?” He came back to himself, his voice as calm as ever. “I'm not. I'm just making sure she doesn't cause trouble for the school.” Caution: 1. The junior sister has another love interest, and neither she nor the male lead has figured out what love is. 2. The male lead and the junior sister never kiss or hug. At most, they hold hands. They grew up together, and he treats her like a little sister, just as she treats him like an older brother. 3. This is a slow-burn, emotionally fraught romance. If you can't accept the first two points, please don't read. 4. Both leads are sexually inexperienced. 5. Is the heroine the other woman? Is the male lead cheating? That's up to you to decide. If you're fine with the points above, go ahead and read.
