The cutest little bob-haired girl on earth x highly intelligent, dark, bipolar man
-
They had lived under the same roof for thirteen years. In a family full of violence and arguments, Yu Xue always trembled behind Zhou Lianqing, whose body seemed able to shield her from every storm.
The day her biological father and stepmother divorced, Yu Xue and Zhou Lianqing opened a bottle of baijiu to celebrate.
Drunk, Yu Xue rested her head on her brother's stomach and felt something touch her forehead. She opened her eyes to see Zhou Lianqing's finger pressed against it.
But she didn't know that before then, Zhou Lianqing had kissed his own fingertip.

Later, Yu Xue accidentally ate the vitamins Zhou Lianqing took regularly and felt groggy all day.
Sensing something was wrong, she followed her brother when he went out.
Only then did she discover that the destination of the route he claimed was for overtime work was the municipal mental health center.
She thought it was caused by the trauma of their childhood, until one day she saw the words in his memo: How could I fall in love with my sister? But if I don't love her, how can I go on living?

Later still, she watched Zhou Lianqing lock himself in his bedroom for a day and a night.
He said he was working and told her not to disturb him.
But she knew he was having an episode.
So she tentatively knocked on the door. "Bro, I'm hungry."
A muffled reply came from inside. "Order takeout."
"No. I want to eat your cooking."
A few minutes later, the person inside opened the door, his eyes bloodshot. "What do you want to eat?"
Yu Xue hesitated, then reached out and hugged him.
The body in her arms instantly stiffened like stone.
