##Not blood-related brothers + younger man/older man + rural romance/wealthy family power struggle## Ruthless, taciturn ghost husband who is strict with everyone but his wife VS a sharp-tongued, princess-syndrome older brother who doesn't realize how tempting he is
Wei Zhili has princess syndrome.
Every time there's just a little rice left in his bowl, he doesn't want to finish it and insists on giving it to his younger brother. He's afraid of blood, so even a scrape means his younger brother has to disinfect and bandage it. People tease him for being spoiled by his brother.
His younger brother is smarter, more calculating, taller, and stronger than he is. So what? That's his little brother, and his little brother is happy to spoil him.
All he has to do is stand there. He doesn't even need to beckon. A single raised eyebrow is enough to make his little brother hurry over.
"Like a puppy," Wei Zhili says with a smile, before scolding him again. "Couldn't you bring your big brother a bottle of iced cola while you were at it? You little mute, I'm confiscating your allowance."
His little brother says nothing. He just takes out all his pocket money, carefully counts it, and hands it over.
After he turned eighteen, he never saw his little brother again.
Because his little brother became a murderer.
He can't remember how he killed him. He only knows he must have been the one who killed that damn father of theirs.
The day he got out of prison, a black car was waiting outside. A man stepped out, impeccably dressed, his presence sharp and imposing.
"Big brother, I'm here to take you home."
But Wei Zhili didn't recognize this man.
This wasn't his little brother. This wasn't his little mute.

Lu Xingzhi, the second young master of the Lu family in Shencheng, used ruthless tactics and moved carefully at every turn. In three years, he carved out a path to the top of the pyramid.
People watched him warily, but still bowed their heads, afraid to offend him. Who could accomplish so much? He had to be an evil spirit crawling out of hell.
He really was a demon. Only when his older brother came up did his stunning, almost inhuman face take on a human expression.
"I do have an older brother who was arrested and sent to prison."
Lu Xingzhi rarely smiled. When he did, blood was soon to be shed.
From then on, no one in the City of Demons dared mention "that person."
Lu Xingzhi had three secrets. First, he and his older brother, Wei Zhili, were not brothers by blood.
Second, he was the one responsible for ruining Wei Zhili's life.
Third, he wanted his older brother to be his canary, belonging to him alone.
Wei Zhili liked peace and quiet, so he bought him a Suzhou-style mansion. Wei Zhili once said he wanted to travel with him, so he had a private flight route arranged long in advance, waiting for him to give the word. Wei Zhili had once said blue diamonds were beautiful, so he wrested a flawless one from the competition, just so he could one day place it on Wei Zhili's ring finger.
If anyone mistreated Wei Zhili, he killed them. If anyone had improper thoughts about Wei Zhili, he tore them to pieces.
His older brother's memory had worsened since he got out of prison. He couldn't keep up with the times, and no longer wanted to be close to him. That was all right. He would teach him slowly.
The moment his older brother came back into his sight, the discipline began.
1. It looks like the older brother is disciplining the younger brother, but in reality the younger brother is taming the older one. The younger brother's whole worldview revolves around his older brother. He is definitely no good person.
2. The story is entirely fictional and has nothing to do with reality. Don't overthink the logic.
