    [Pseudo-siblings + Both virgins + Long-planned] [Mainly a tug-of-war + interspersed flashbacks] Lu Lingxi moved into the Pei family home when she was eight. At their first meeting, the boy sat atop a tall bookshelf, light shining on his head, dressed in white with black trousers, cold and aloof. Lu Lingxi grinned at him, "Brother." He merely glanced at her, offering a dismissive comment, "Little brat." Originally, they thought they would never see each other again, but who would have thought they would later become deeply in love? Lu Lingxi always knew Pei Chenlin was a little devil, pure yet wicked at heart. During their passionate years of love, his wickedness was on full display in bed. Later, they parted ways, only to meet again three years later. They became siblings again, but his gaze towards her was no longer innocent. Seeing her with other men, he was consumed by jealousy. On a rainy night, he held her in his arms, threateningly whispering in her ear, "Be good, break off contact with him."
