When Yu Zhining turned eighteen, he moved into the apartment of Yin Duzhou, the older brother of a family friend.
Yin Duzhou was four years older and already the head of a corporate group. Cold and taciturn, he took charge of everything: when Yu went to bed, what he ate, which clubs he joined. Nothing escaped his notice.
Yu Zhining had only wanted to get through college in peace, but this “older brother” was even more attentive than a real one.
What he hadn't expected was that he didn't mind at all.
On the first day of school, Yin Duzhou personally took him to his dormitory and knelt down to tie his shoelaces in front of his roommates.
One roommate quietly asked, “Is your brother this nice to everyone?”
Yu Zhining didn't answer, because he had noticed that there was something different about the way Yin Duzhou looked at him.
Later, he received an anonymous photo of Yin Duzhou with another man at a coffee shop.
On the back, someone had written: “Are you sure you know him?”
Yu Zhining placed the photo on the table. “Explain this.”
Yin Duzhou glanced at it. “A business partner from three years ago. Anything else?”
“Yes. Why do you never tell me who you've met?”
“Because it doesn't matter.”
“Then what does matter?”
Yin Duzhou looked at him. “You.”
Over four years of college, Yu went from being told what to do to willingly letting himself be managed, and from calling Yin “Older Brother” to calling him “boyfriend.”
On graduation day, Yin Duzhou dropped to one knee. “I've been looking after you for four years, and I want to do it for the rest of our lives. Will you let me?”
Only later did Yu Zhining learn that Yin wasn't a busybody. He only wanted to look after him.
And the “benefactor” pulling the strings behind the scenes was the one who truly wanted to destroy everything.
