Blurb:
One,
My elder brother is the elegant, handsome, and refined young nobleman of Jian'an City.
My sister-in-law is the most beautiful woman in Jiangdong. Her mere appearance is enough to captivate anyone.
I love my sister-in-law.
So I fled to the ends of the earth.
Two,
Later, my brother died. I returned to Jian'an to avenge him and protect my family, protect... her.
I hear my sister-in-law is going to remarry the man who once seduced and abandoned her, then married her older sister.
Everyone says that man has changed completely and is devoted to my sister-in-law. Most importantly, he's a marquis.
So I joined the army, and returned as a marquis myself.
Three,
Just as I thought I had finally become better than other men, more worthy than them of standing by her side,
my brother returned. It turns out he wasn't dead.
In an instant, I woke from my dream and was brought back to reality.
My brother and I became political rivals and rivals in love,
but this time, I won't run away.
Sister-in-law, look at me just once. One glance is all it takes for me to sink into this, heedless of all decency.
Content warnings:
1. The blurb is in first person, so it presents the male lead's perspective, which isn't necessarily the objective version of events. The novel itself will be written in third person.
2. Repeating it three times: both leads are each other's only partners, both leads are each other's only partners, both leads are each other's only partners.
3. I usually write strong female leads and was a little tired of it. The heroine here is soft and sweet, yet gentle and strong.
