Black-hearted, tsundere, sunny junior sister x cold-faced, adorable, straight, oblivious senior brother
Also known as: Senior Brother, Do You Even Love Me or Not?
Sword cultivators! That's the spirit.
He was entrusted with protecting me, but I can't tell whether it's gratitude or love.
The year Zhu Lan'an joined the sect, her senior brother treated her wonderfully. He taught her swordsmanship, took her punishment, and copied scriptures for her... She thought it meant he liked her.
Until someone discovered that Zhu Lan'an's biological parents were once celebrated sword masters who had colluded with the demon clans... Suddenly, rumors spread and everything turned against her.
Zhu Lan'an refused to believe it.
She asked about her origins, but her senior brother stopped her again and again. There were clearly things he wanted to say, yet he refused to say a word.
Then, during the sect's tournament, their swords clashed, but neither blade was damaged. Instead, they rang out together.
Zhu Lan'an realized that her sword and her senior brother's had once belonged to her parents. They were twin swords, forged from the same source and unable to harm each other. Only then did she hear her senior brother reveal his origins with his own lips: he was an orphan her parents had rescued while traveling the world and upholding justice.
So all his tenderness toward Zhu Lan'an had been repayment for a debt. Was it gratitude for raising him, or romantic love? She could no longer tell.
Zhu Lan'an moved out to live alone. After thinking it over, she decided to seek the truth herself and clear her parents' names.
But her senior brother followed her, still caring for her as attentively as ever...
Zhu Lan'an never asked him about it.
Until the night of the fierce battle, when her senior brother grasped the hand holding her sword and said softly:
"I really am repaying a debt, and I really do love you. I have, from the very beginning."
Then, swords rang out all around them...
That night, the rain fell hard and the wind howled.
But tonight, Lingxiao remains.
