The Brat and His Sister Complex

1.

Huo Yu was eight when he was brought back to the country.

A little girl at the old family home stared at him with bright, limpid eyes. Then Grandpa led her over and said, “This is your little sister.”

Huo Yu frowned.

//

In his teens, the boy received a love letter.

There was no name on it, but the handwriting was unmistakably familiar. He said nothing, and she never knew whether he had read it.

That love slowly grew and spread in a place where no one could see.

He thought he had hidden it well, until Grandpa found out. At the time, the sibling relationship between them was impossible to escape.

And so Huo Yu was sent abroad to study against his will.

When they met again years later, they had grown distant.

She got a boyfriend in college and became rebellious and difficult, opposing him at every turn. She never mentioned those once-innocent feelings again.

To get away from the Huo family, his little sister was willing to argue with him.

She even disappeared for months. When she came back, she had given birth to someone else's child, and their relationship was all but broken.

Later, Huo Yu took over the family business and devoted himself entirely to work.

Chu Ti became an actress, going from stage plays to the big screen, radiant and captivating.

They drifted farther and farther apart in each other's worlds.

But... there is an exception to everything.

The exception was the time she had an episode.

When she woke up in the morning, she was sleeping beside him on his pillow.

2.

The popular actress Chu Ti has a sweet, well-behaved daughter.

Her name is Little Apple, a secret unknown to the entire internet.

But the older Little Apple gets, the more she looks like her uncle.

That worries Chu Ti, but fortunately, a certain someone rarely comes to visit her.

When Chu Ti returned from the set one day, Little Apple was already waiting for her in the entryway, head bowed. Maybe she had run into some problem at school she couldn't figure out.

Chu Ti drew her daughter into her arms and comforted her tenderly.

Only then did she notice the evaluation report in her daughter's hand. The little girl's face was innocent and aggrieved as she looked up at her. “Why didn't Mommy tell Little Apple that Uncle is my dad?”

At the far end of the dim entryway stood a tall man.

He simply watched Chu Ti in silence, like a patient hunter, making the air feel cold and oppressive.

Chu Ti's body stiffened, and she opened her mouth.

A chill instantly ran down her spine. She was too afraid even to sweat.

Note: 1. They are not blood-related and are not registered in the same household.

2. Both are virgins, happy ending, three-year age gap. Full of melodrama, with plenty of fictional details.

3. The male lead is half German and has bipolar disorder. Whenever he feels he might lose the female lead, he goes mad, but he can't remember what he does during those episodes.

4. The male lead appears aloof and composed, but has repeatedly lost control because of separation anxiety. The female lead keeps testing her brother's boundaries and eventually pays dearly for it.

Qiao Mu is an honest, ordinary woman.

She's beautiful, from a rural household, and never had much growing up.

As they put it:

She's just got a nice figure. She's only his bedmate. Otherwise, why would a woman like her ever catch Fu Zhiheng's eye?

So for the two years she was with Fu Zhiheng,

she never fought for anything, never caused trouble.

She was content to spend a little of his money and treat him with the reverence due a god of wealth. Aside from things being a little strenuous in bed, everything was fine.

In their third year together, Fu Zhiheng wanted to escape an arranged marriage and put her forward as his bride. She ought to be able to do the job well and be grateful to the god of wealth for his blessing.

Unfortunately, as in all those novels,

Fu Zhiheng's first love came back. The two of them began meeting often, and Qiao Mu grew increasingly uneasy. Even spending his money started to make her anxious.

Qiao Mu thought about it for a long time.

To end things with dignity, she decided she knew what she had to do.

-

Fu Zhiheng and his wife fell in love and married as naturally as could be.

His wife was beautiful, sweet, and gentle.

She was also a little timid and afraid of trouble, and there was always a sense of distance between them. She never knew how to take advantage of his influence or act spoiled because he doted on her.

He worried that someone would turn her against him and make her leave.

So he went against everyone's objections and married her, hoping only to grow closer to her.

But then one day after they were married,

Qiao Mu suddenly asked for a divorce and told him to give her enough money to live comfortably.

Fu Zhiheng kept his composure and thought it over carefully.

Who had been manipulating his wife behind his back?

-

Fu Zhiheng came home from work very late that day.

His wife was already asleep. They had been giving each other the cold shoulder for a long time, and hadn't been intimate in days.

He quietly went to the bedside

and heard a melodramatic romance playing on her phone: “Chapter Four: The first love returns to the country...”

Fu Zhiheng: “...”

Honest, busty girl × domineering CEO.
