I caused her father's death, yet I kissed her in front of everyone.
In the crush of the crowd, her new boyfriend stood just three meters away, able only to clench his fists and watch helplessly.
My baseball cap was pulled low. I looked down at her flushed, furious eyes as she bit back her words.
“Sheng You, what do you think tomorrow's trending headline will say?”
I first met her when I was eight. The little girl pretended to be innocent and cheerful, but her eyes were full of pride and superiority.
I had crawled out of a pile of corpses. People had forced me to beg, to smile for them, and to take beatings. Her spotless, lofty air stung me to the core.
I took up sanda and learned taekwondo. After all, Uncle Sheng had plenty of enemies as a narcotics officer.
As for her, there was no harm in helping protect her while I was at it.
Later, I became famous, a household name.
The paparazzi pointed their cameras at the Sheng family, hoping to dig up dirt on me...
The day Uncle Sheng jumped into the river, she didn't cry.
From then on, all she felt when she looked at me was disgust.
Thinking back over the years, she had never once called me “brother.”
It didn't matter.
I had never planned on being her brother in the first place.
Tomorrow, the day after, every day from then on.
She would be mine.
