Shen Xingyao has two sides.
At school, she's “Shen Yao,” an ordinary girl who's gentle and wholesome.
At home, she's the Shen family's captivating young lady, who can flirt without batting an eye.
Jiang Cheng is her bodyguard, six years older, aloof and restrained, always mindful of his place.
He warns her again and again:
“Miss, you're all grown up. Stop coming so close.”
“Hands off. Don't touch me like that.”
“Not here.”
But she does it anyway, flirting with him day after day and teasing him every night, loving to watch his ears turn red while he tries to stay composed.
At a reception, she hides from her younger brother by hugging a fake boyfriend and putting on an act.
He sees the whole thing.
A glass shatters. His eyes redden, and he strides over, pinning her hard against the wall.
“Shen Xingyao, did you deliberately call me ‘big brother’ just now because you were afraid he'd misunderstand?”
“If you have someone else in your heart, why do you keep flirting with me?”
“You've turned my heart upside down. Now you think you can just slip away?”
Before she can answer, he lowers his head and kisses her.
The kiss is fierce and deep, filled with pain he'd held back for far too long.
“I beg you, stop torturing me...”
Their breaths mingle, and his voice is hoarse beyond recognition.
“Even if things with him are fake, I still won't let you get close to another man.”
His mouth says no, but his body says otherwise.
Big Brother, you always say one thing and mean another!
