[Black-bellied puppy who pretends to be obedient & aloof, rational, genius young stylist]
When Shi Qingqian was eighteen, she found Shen Jingheng beside a trash can and took him home. Later, she suddenly realized that he had improper feelings for her.
Shi Qingqian couldn't accept that kind of relationship and tried to kick him out time and time again. But a dog raised by hand knows its owner, and every time, he found his way back home.
With red-rimmed eyes, he said so many things to her:
"Sis, do you think I'm a dog?"
"Sis, do you never take anything I say to heart?"
"Sis, you told me abandoning a pet was against the law."
"Sis, I can't interfere with your decisions, but if you're going to get married, could you let me be your secret third brother?"
-
Shi Qingqian couldn't take his persistence anymore and agreed to let him be her third brother.
But then he transformed into the heir to the capital's most powerful family, as well as her very real, terrifyingly influential fiance in an arranged marriage.
Shi Qingqian was furious, cut off contact, and went to the snowy mountains to join a film crew.
Shen Jingheng nearly worked himself to death to win her back. At home, he clung to her arm and whined, "I don't care. You can be the strong woman, and I'll be your sweet little husband. I promise I'll take good care of you."
-
On the day her biological father was sent to prison, Shi Qingqian dressed to impress and prepared to inherit the family business in front of the media.
Halfway there, she was knocked unconscious. When she woke up, her younger brother, whom she'd raised herself, had chained her to the bed.
He bent down and kissed her until she couldn't breathe, biting her lips hard. "Sis, don't look at other men. You can only look at me."
-
My sister is my savior, yet I desecrate the divine, day and night.
