● Mom is actually the delicate, beautiful heroine of a domineering-possession romance.
*
In the eyes of Ji Chuyun, heiress to a fortune worth hundreds of billions, she was born the darling of the entire world.
She thought so not only because she came from a family at the very top of the social pyramid, but also because she had an exceptionally normal, loving family.
She had a fraternal twin brother who had grown up alongside her and shared a close sibling bond with her, a tall and handsome father, and a beautiful, gentle mother.
Her parents were deeply in love. More than twenty years later, they were still as devoted to each other as ever, leaving no room for anyone to come between them. They were the envy of everyone, a rare sight in the circles of the wealthy and powerful.
As their daughter, she had grown up surrounded by money, power, and an abundance of love.
Then, one day, she had a nightmare, and a strange passage appeared in her mind:
"Poor little sister! The male lead has been possessive of her for years, keeping her hidden away like a canary in a gilded cage, and even forcing her to give him two little brats! Did those two brats really never notice that their own mother wasn't happy? Why are those little brats grinning from ear to ear every day?"
Ji Chuyun: ?????
Is this "little sister" talking about me? But I don't think I've ever had children.
Wait. She suddenly realized she wasn't the "little sister" in question. The words describing her must be those "little brats."
And this so-called "little sister"... it sounded like they were talking about her mother!
Then that "male lead"... couldn't they mean her father?
Possessive domination? Her parents? Forced to have children?
Huh? Weren't they supposed to be deeply in love and devoted to each other?

"Beyond the gilded-cage story, what is the truth?"
●●Synopsis from the heroine's perspective:
Ji Weiling is the daughter Liang Jiyue's mother had after divorcing and remarrying. She is Liang Jiyue's only maternal half-sister, and the sole keepsake his mother left him.
After their mother died, young Ji Weiling was raised by Liang Jiyue himself.
He doted on her, gave her everything she asked for, treated her like a precious jewel, and protected her in every way.
Ji Weiling was very satisfied with her princess-like life. Taking advantage of her brother's affection, she spent her days throwing tantrums and acting spoiled in every possible way.
After all, she had nothing to fear. She knew her brother would indulge her.
Until one day, her dreamlike life as a princess was shattered, and someone exposed the truth about this fake princess:
She wasn't Liang Jiyue's biological sister, nor was she the biological daughter of his late mother. She was an impostor, a child of unknown parentage.
This fake princess had spent years swindling the Liang family's young master out of money and genuine affection.
Terrified that Liang Jiyue would come after her and settle accounts, Ji Weiling fled abroad with her boyfriend in the middle of the night.
●●Synopsis from the hero's perspective:
I loved you, protected you, and raised you. And in the end, you trusted your little boyfriend more than me?
Even if you aren't my biological sister, when did I ever say I didn't love you? Why did you run away?
Why did you leave me?
