A Steamy Relationship

Everyone in the capital knew that the eldest daughter of the Shu family was dazzlingly beautiful and spoiled.

On the eve of her engagement, her fiancé vanished without a trace. For a whole month, no one saw him or heard from him.

While everyone waited to see her become a laughingstock, the handsome, aloof man finally returned.

Dressed in an expensive tailored suit, his features were cold and sharp.

As everyone gasped, he walked up to her, took her hand, and stood up for her with almost reverent devotion.

Shu Yun herself: "..."

"That's some impressive acting."

But come nightfall, her fiancé immediately switched modes.

By day, he was a refined gentleman.

At night, it was as if some dangerous switch had been flipped. He held her tight and wouldn't let go.

"A Yun, you were the one who came after me first."

Shu Yun fell silent for three seconds, then gently reminded him:

"Mr. Shen, we're in a contract relationship. Please calm down."

He did not calm down at all. If anything, he held her tighter.

Then one day, she accidentally found the crucial evidence.

It turned out that the man who lost control while holding her every night... wasn't her fiancé at all.

He was her fiancé's twin brother, a man with a ruthless streak and a reserved manner.

Shen Sizhuo.

-

Shen Sizhuo had a secret of his own. He had been raised abroad since childhood, and no one knew that the Shen family had had twins.

If his older brother hadn't been seriously injured, he would never have been forced to come forward.

He had assumed his brother's identity to find the traitor in the family.

He was only supposed to play his brother!

But after the job was done, he unexpectedly discovered that his brother's fiancée seemed different from the rumors.

Beneath her bright, spoiled exterior was a sweet, gentle heart.

The closer he got to her, the harder it became to restrain himself.

Then one day, he found out.

She had known all along that he wasn't his brother.

In that moment, all his restraint, his sense of propriety, and his reservations fell apart.

If she knew and had said nothing,

then he would stop pretending.

He stared at her possessively and asked in a low voice:

"A Yun, since you figured out who I was ages ago..."

"Does that mean I can stop pretending, too?"

-

Little scene:

At night, Shen Sizhuo held her and refused to let go.

Shu Yun couldn't speak, with him kissing her, so she grabbed his hair. "Can't you behave yourself?"

The man really did behave for two seconds, then pressed against her even more insistently, his voice low and burning hot.

"Sister-in-law, my brother can't give me much."

"But you... you're one of the things he can."

Shu Yun: "???"

Shen Sizhuo: "Don't worry. I'll cherish you more than he does."

The next morning.

Shu Yun clutched her aching waist and flew into a rage.

"No more of this brother-and-sister-in-law roleplay next time!!"

Shen Sizhuo pondered.

"...Then should I try a different one next time?"

Her: "???!!!"

Him: "Maybe... call me husband?"
