Childhood sweethearts to possessive love, female lead is not a virgin, male lead is a virgin, captivating heroine vs. stubborn tsundere
Save this one to your collection. I’ll update my other novel, "Just Give Me Money," first.

She was truly awful.
Just because we had one argument, she threatened to marry my eldest brother.
Worse still,
my eldest brother, whom I respected, loved, and admired so much, said he was willing too.
I was furious. Someone like her had no business talking about love. With a temper like hers, all she could do was ruin people!
If I ever looked at her again, spoke to her again, or thought of her again, may I die on the battlefield, my body wrapped in my horse’s hide, my spirit never to return home!
A few years later,
I heard that my eldest brother was gravely ill. As his younger brother, I naturally had to return home to visit him, show my brotherly affection, and comfort and care for my sister-in-law.
Who knew that when he rushed home in a panic, he’d find his good second brother wiping Lin Shuci’s tears and holding her little hand as he said, "Don’t cry, Shuci. It’s only natural for a younger brother to take his elder brother’s place. The Jingxiang Marquis’s household is the same. Your second brother will take care of you from now on."
Xu Peizhi: Fine, fine! So I even missed out on her second marriage!
[Bonus Scene]
The Crown Prince’s carriage was attacked. At the critical moment, Xu Peizhi took a sword meant for His Highness, keeping him safe. While Xu Peizhi recovered at the marquis’s estate, his mother was arranging introductions to promising young men for the newly widowed Lin Shuci. When she heard Lin Shuci had taken an interest in the grandson of the Prince of Langya, who was from the Wang family, and that the two had gone boating and admired the spring scenery together, composing poetry, it seemed their match was all but certain. Then, for some unknown reason, the grandson suddenly left the capital.
Lin Shuci tried to run after him, but someone blocked her in her room.
"I’m far better than that grandson, and you know it, sister-in-law."
#I’m not forcing myself on her of my own accord, I’m being forced to#
#We’re actually in love with each other, it’s just not obvious#
Heroine: #Get lost!#
Notice:
1. The heroine and the three brothers are not related by blood. The story is told from both leads’ perspectives.
2. The heroine is not a virgin, while the male lead is. There’s humor and melodrama, plus a man who takes love by force (bolded). Please read with caution if you can’t accept that.
Theme: Love of freedom and hope.
