The Capital’s Young Heir Falls Hard and Begs Big Sister to Reel Him In Again

[Sweet! Seductive! Sensual! Spoiling! Flirtatious! Overwhelming possessiveness + clear-headed and emotionally grounded, with no unnecessary angst]

Xu Nian, a powerful older woman, meets Gu Hengxing, a younger scion of one of the most elite families in Beijing.

After eleven years together, Xu Nian is cheated on. One drunken night, she mistakenly believes she slept with Gu Hengxing. He goes along with the misunderstanding, hoping to win her over, but then unexpectedly disappears for a year.

When he shows up again, Xu Nian has already become the fiancée of the Gu family’s eldest son, Gu Hengchuan!

Gu Hengchuan is the son of his father and his first love. I’m the Gu family’s rightful eldest son!

And Xu Nian should be my girlfriend, Gu Hengxing’s.

“Only a year apart, and you couldn’t wait to climb into someone else’s bed?”

“Hmph! You know it’s been a year? I knew you were young, but I didn’t realize you were such a coward. You took liberties with me, and I never even asked you to answer for it, yet you got so scared you went into hiding!”

“Into hiding? Then who’s standing in front of you? Why are you with Gu Hengchuan? For money? Status? Or an opportunity?”

“Couldn’t it be for love?”

“No!”

“Why not? How can you be so sure?”

“Because I’m the only one you have eyes for. You were like that a year ago, and you still are now!”

“Gu Hengxing, you’re far too confident!”

“Hmph! I won’t give him a single thing from the Gu family. He won’t get the money or the status. You’d be better off climbing onto my branch, big sister. It’s a much safer bet!”

“That does sound tempting. Too bad I don’t like being threatened... or younger men.”

“You don’t like younger men?” Gu Hengxing smiled faintly and leaned close to Xu Nian’s ear. “I remember all too well how you were panting in front of me on Christmas Eve last year. You weren’t saying that then!”

“Gu Hengxing! Are you asking for a beating?”
