After returning from the northern campaign, the illustrious young general Pei Si becomes the dream man of every noble young lady in the capital, and Shen Wan's "second brother," who drops into her life from the sky.
Everyone else is captivated by his dazzling brilliance. Shen Wan, and Shen Wan alone, fears him to the bone.
He discovers her unspeakable secret, lets his subordinates humiliate her, and even personally pushes her into someone else's arms.
She avoids him like the plague. Until one day, returning from the convent, she is cornered by him, bruised and battered.
The man, eyes bloodshot, kisses the bruise on her neck and rasps, "Ruanruan, from now on, your life belongs to me."
**
Abandoned as a child and raised in the hell of the military camp, Pei Si knows that deep down, he's a madman.
He wears the guise of the capital's most dazzling young man, but in front of that timid "little sister," he sheds every disguise.
At first, he only wants to scare his enemy's little rabbit into tears.
He watches her tremble as she pleads for someone else, watches her suffer at the hands of her own family without daring to cry out.
Somewhere along the way, those taunts become an uncontrollable need to draw near, and thoughts of revenge turn into an obsession that keeps him tossing and turning at night.
The moment he sees her covered in wounds, a towering rage burns away his reason. What does a blood feud matter? What do the rules between siblings matter?
He wants only her!
Reader's guide: They aren't biological siblings. The male lead knows he isn't related to the female lead by blood, and she finds out before falling for him.
