Xia Yi's younger brother, who was kidnapped ten years ago, has returned.
The boy is tall and thin, his eyes hidden behind black hair, his whole body radiating wariness.
He hates being approached and will bite.
Everyone is afraid of him.
Xia Yi isn't. She comforts him, makes him bear-shaped cookies, and tells him how handsome he is.
Little by little, Xia Yin opens his heart.
Everything seems to be heading in a good direction, until Xia Yi notices that his arm has no crescent-shaped scar like her younger brother's.
Xia Yin grips her wrist tightly. “Big Sister, don't send me away.”
But he is discovered all the same.
.
They meet again.
Xia Yi rushes to the funeral home. Before she can see her fiance, who died in a car accident, she spots Xia Yin, there to pay his respects.
He's changed: shirt and slacks, refined features, a string of Buddhist prayer beads wrapped around his right wrist.
Xia Yi is stunned as he draws her into a loose embrace.
His amused whisper brushes her ear. “Big Sister, your fiance looks a lot like me.”
.
From the moment he first met Xia Yi,
Xia Yin knew she was his destiny.
The girl was as beautiful and radiant as a rose. He wanted to be the greenhouse that kept her captive.
