After I Fed My Possessive Uncle, He Tried to Run Away With Me

Moody, brooding young man + easygoing little-white-rabbit heroine + female lead has no sexual experience, male lead does + happy ending + older woman-younger man romance Shen Amian was breathtakingly beautiful, with a willowy figure and skin as white as snow.

What right did he have to enjoy twenty years of the Xie family’s love and affection, and still keep her for himself? He watched her bustle about for him every day, watched the guilt and tenderness she couldn’t conceal when she looked at him.
