Yan Shuyue had always been well-behaved and sensible, following the rules from childhood.
The boldest thing she ever did was seize on an excuse one summer night when she was eighteen, grab Lu Chengxi by the collar, and kiss him.
They called each other brother and sister in public, but behind closed doors they were wildly indulgent.
She had gotten what she wanted, and they were… compatible in certain ways. Even after they broke things off, she felt those years had been happy enough.

They met again at a dinner party.
In full view of everyone, Yan Shuyue steadied her drunk boyfriend, then turned and met a familiar gaze. At a loss for words for a moment, she properly greeted him, “Mr. Lu.”
Lu Chengxi leaned against the car door, his gaze passing over the two of them. “I’ll give you a ride.”
She was still polite. “Thank you, Mr. Lu, but we wouldn’t want to trouble you.”
He stared at her and smiled, his meaning unclear. “You’ve got a boyfriend now. Why are you so formal with your brother?”
*They only pretend to be siblings; they are each other’s one and only, reunited after a breakup, happy ending
Reading tips:
1. The leads live under the same roof. They are neither related by blood nor family, and there is no romance or intimate content while they are underage. Three-year age gap.
2. A situationship that turns into a real relationship, in an unconventional way.
3. The story opens with their reunion, then flashes back. Bittersweet and sweet in equal measure.
4. The boyfriend mentioned in the blurb is a misunderstanding.
