How Did My Sweet, Silly Little Brother Turn Into a Black-Hearted Schemer?

A light snow fell over Beiyuan. Six-year-old Ning Boshu watched coldly as his father led Ning Qiaohe home. From that day on, they became brothers. Ning Qiaohe was smarter and more obedient than him. To assert his authority, Ning Boshu often ordered him around. "I'm your big brother, you're my little brother, so you have to do what I say!" Ning Qiaohe nodded. "I'll listen to you, Big Brother." No one expected Ning Qiaohe to be three years younger than Ning Boshu, yet skip a grade and become his classmate in middle school. That evening, Ning Qiaohe smiled at Ning Boshu. "Big Brother, now that we're in the same class, it'll be easier for you to come to me when you need something." As he spoke, he expertly pulled Ning Boshu's workbook from his schoolbag and started doing the exercises. Ning Boshu snorted and muttered, "Don't think that just because we're in the same class now, you can stop listening to me. I'm still your big brother. Whatever I say, you have to do. Got it?" Ning Qiaohe obediently answered, "Got it." Everyone who knew the Ning brothers said they had gotten their roles completely mixed up. The older brother didn't act like an older brother at all. Whenever he got into trouble, he dumped all the blame on his little brother. And the little brother calmly took it, then went to apologize to people and clean up after his brother with a straight face. They were just like Zhou Yu and Huang Gai: one willing to strike, the other willing to take it. Ning Qiaohe was endlessly tolerant of Ning Boshu, perhaps because Ning Boshu had told him since they were children, "I'm your big brother, you're my little brother, so you have to listen to me." He thought Ning Boshu would order him around for the rest of his life. It wasn't until he watched his brother fall in love and completely ignore him that Ning Qiaohe suddenly realized a third person could appear between them and upset their balance. He didn't want that. 1. Younger top, older bottom. The romance is a misunderstanding. 1v1, both pure. 2. Readers with extreme top or bottom preferences, please stay away. 3. The top and bottom are not related by blood. They do not date before adulthood; their romance begins when they are adults. Theme: Build a harmonious society and keep striving every day.
