[Childhood sweethearts × secret love comes true × mutual devotion × oblivious heroine wakes up × heroine’s growth × devoted to each other × sweet romance]
For twenty-nine years, Liu Xixi had always thought of Zhou Xu as a brother she’d trust with her life.
Her family nagged her to get married? She asked her brother to pose as her blind date!
She wanted to start a game company? Her brother promptly sent over an investment plan worth millions!
She worked overtime until late at night? Her brother always showed up right on time with a hot supper!
Until she discovered that all her brother’s passwords were her birthday, his computer held more than three thousand unsent emails written to her, and the way he looked at her was nothing like the way a brother looked at his sister!
Liu Xixi was stunned. “So I thought of you as my brother, and you wanted to get with me?!”
The man lowered his head and bit her flushed lips, his fingertips gripping her trembling waist. His voice was husky and burning with desire. “What else? I’ve waited for you for nineteen years. I couldn’t spend my whole life really being just your brother.”
Later, the whole company watched as the decisive Mr. Zhou made daily trips to the game company next door. He was either bringing their boss milk tea or sitting in her office peeling shrimp for her, the very picture of a devoted boyfriend.
Liu Xixi: “Wait, weren’t we supposed to be brothers? What happened to keeping your self-control?!”
Zhou Xu nibbled her ear and laughed. “I can’t control myself around you.”

Sure, it's got the feel of a hidden gem of a novel. At first, I wasn't interested because there were no ratings, but after reading a few chapters, I found it quite good.
