Marrying Mr. Qin, the Tycoon

[New novel, Love Is Bound to Lead to Marriage: Please add it to your collection! A red-packet rain is coming when it launches!]

Qin Xuzhou is a big shot in Qingcheng. Though born into a wealthy family, he was raised right and never went astray. Nobody in Qingcheng would dare disregard Young Master Qin.

But at home, Qin Xuzhou, who acts so flamboyantly in public, practically wishes he had a tail so he could wag it at Meng Yihe every second of the day.

"Honey! Where's my tie?"

"Honey! Where are my socks?"

"Honey! Where's my underwear?"

When a pair of underwear was thrown at the man who called her "honey" eight hundred times a day, he wasn't the least bit annoyed. He cheerfully picked them up and went to change.

Meng Yihe, who people claimed had taken her older sister's place and married into the Qin family, could only laugh and cry. Wasn't he supposed to be aloof and uninterested in women? Wasn't she only meant to be a decorative trophy after marrying into the family?!

Love Is Bound to Lead to Marriage

Sang Nian is the illegitimate daughter of the Sang family, a secret they keep hidden from the world. Quiet and reserved since childhood, she isn't good with words and has spent years following Huo Yan around as his least noticeable sidekick.

As the younger son of the Huo family, Huo Yan has lived a carefree life for over twenty years. Lately, though, he's had a small problem.

He's realized that his little sidekick, Sang Nian, seems to have feelings for him.

One day, after having too much to drink, he happened to run into his always-busy older brother. Under the influence of alcohol, Huo Yan shared his sweet little problem. "Bro, what if Sang Nian really does like me? Maybe you should take her off my hands?"

Huo Yan teased Huo Zhen half-jokingly.

The man leaning against the sofa lifted his eyes and gave a faint, ambiguous smile. His reply was just as hard to read: "Sure."

Huo Yan laughed at once. "Come on, don't mess with me, Bro. She's not your type."

Outside the door, Sang Nian didn't listen any longer. She left as quietly as she had come.

Huo Zhen set down his glass and said softly, "What makes you think I don't like her?"

Huo Yan sobered up in an instant, unable to say a word.

But he couldn't deny that for a moment, he felt secretly delighted. His brother, the pride of heaven, could actually stumble after all.

After all, Sang Nian was in love with him.

Later, when the Sang family decided to marry their illegitimate daughter off to a nearly forty-year-old divorced man, Huo Yan felt it was his duty to save Sang Nian from that fate.

That afternoon, before he could go find Sang Nian, he saw in his own garden that his "secret admirer" had risen onto her tiptoes and kissed his very own older brother!

Sang Nian had always followed the rules. The most daring thing she had ever done was kiss Huo Zhen on the lips while he slept, bidding farewell to her unrequited love that had come to nothing.

But Sang Nian didn't know that what she thought was her careful, secret affection had all been part of Huo Zhen's careful plan.
