[Little princess x her personal bodyguard] Four-year age gap
[Clingy, silly little sister who adores her big brother x cold-faced man who doesn't want to be called her brother]
Nan Yang, the eldest daughter of the Nan family in Mancheng, is an incomparable beauty.
The lovely girl is a little slow-witted. She speaks softly and takes her time with everything.
Yet no one dares to bully her.
They fear the Nan family's influence, but they fear Shen Juan even more.
Everyone says the Nan family raised a mad dog: sinister and ruthless, cold and aloof, and utterly reckless in a fight. What a waste of a face that makes countless young ladies swoon.
But when it comes to Miss Nan Yang, he shows the only tenderness he has.
When disaster strikes the Nan family and everyone turns against them, the little princess who was cherished like a treasure in her ivory tower falls from the clouds into the dirt overnight.
He says, "Miss, don't be afraid."
Nan Yang goes blind because of an inherited eye condition.
He still says, "Miss, don't be afraid."
Later, when the young woman wakes after surgery, he suddenly disappears without a word.

Four years later, Nan Yang is invited to a gala as a renowned painter.
The pretty, charming girl sees the man surrounded by people, cool and distinguished, hailed as a legend of Mancheng, and her eyes instantly turn red.
The young woman he watched grow up gets dead drunk. Ignoring everyone's attempts to stop her, she grabs his sleeve and whispers through red-rimmed eyes:
"Big brother, were all the things you said to me before lies?"
Everyone laughs at her for dreaming of marrying above her station, calling it a fool's fantasy.
But they never expect that the man rumored to be sinister, cruel, and far beyond anyone's reach will carefully wipe away the tears at the corner of her eye.
It is as if all his surging, stifled emotions are locked behind those dark eyes.
Looking utterly disheveled, he nearly loses his voice. "Miss, don't cry."
Shen Juan almost wants to get down on his knees before her.

Shen Juan was born into poverty and abandoned at an orphanage, where he grew up wild.
Quiet and withdrawn, he fought stray dogs for scraps, his beautiful eyes utterly lifeless.
Then one day, a girl treated like a princess, the center of everyone's attention, broke into his heart.
The little girl tugged at his clothes, stars seeming to shine in her eyes.
She said, "Big brother, will you come home with me?"
For Nan Yang's surgery, he got down on his knees, begged people for help, and hauled bricks. His dignity was ground into the dirt.
But he never cared. He wasn't afraid of anything.
All he wanted was for his Yangyang to live carefree, still the bright, pampered little princess she had been before disaster struck the Nan family.
*
On that gentle summer night, Shen Juan carried the drowsy girl on his back along a deserted asphalt road.
Moonlight was sliced by the leaves into soft threads, and the summer breeze carried the chirping of cicadas.
He lowered his eyes, his cool voice holding a tenderness that was almost impossible to detect:
"You are my string, Miss. Wherever the string goes, the kite goes."
Silly beauty x cold-faced personal bodyguard with top-notch social skills who plays both father and mother
Little sun x strong yet tragic hero
[They save each other]
1. The male lead really has it rough early on. He grows up wild and even gets down on his knees to beg people.
2. He keeps calling her Miss at first. A man has to be insecure to win a wife (not).
3. The male lead suffers. The girl is cherished from beginning to end and barely has to endure hardship: a real princess.
4. The cover was drawn by the author's most beautiful friend! >3<
5. His name has a character with multiple pronunciations! Shen Juan, pronounced juan.
