* A dazzling, confident beauty x a sweet, scheming girl
* A sweet, slice-of-life romance
* Eight-year age gap
Ji Wanqiu had been thriving abroad, but on her twenty-fifth birthday, her parents suddenly called her home to inherit the family business. It seemed her carefree life was waving goodbye, and Ji Wanqiu braced herself for a dull future.
But when she walked through the door and saw her childhood sweetheart sitting beside her younger sister, her resolve wavered for a moment.
The girl was fair and lovely, her eyes clear as autumn water. The moment she looked at Ji Wanqiu, her face suddenly flushed.
Ji Wanqiu couldn't help indulging her own desires.
Later, by a twist of fate, Tang Zhi's parents sent her to stay at Ji Wanqiu's home for a while.
While they lived together, Ji Wanqiu played the part of a caring older sister, looking after Tang Zhi in every way. She not only cooked delicious meals for her, but also stroked her hair when she was sick and said, "It's okay. Big Sister will take care of you."
The woman's mature, thoughtful kindness was just right, drawing Tang Zhi deeper with every step.
Only after Ji Wanqiu had completely claimed her did Tang Zhi discover how much cruelty lay hidden beneath that gentle facade.

After they got together, they spent countless nights entwined.
Ji Wanqiu reached out and wiped the tears from the corners of Tang Zhi's eyes. "Baby, did you know? You look especially beautiful when you cry."
The words made Tang Zhi's face burn, but she couldn't break free. All she could do was plead in a soft voice, "Big Sister..."
Ji Wanqiu wrapped an arm around Tang Zhi's waist, pinning the girl beneath her in a confining embrace. She laughed softly, her breath hot against Tang Zhi.
"The first time I saw you, I thought, this little bunny absolutely cannot end up in someone else's hands."

It was the first time Tang Zhi had ever seen someone so beautiful. Like the vivid red on her lips, she was a rose blooming wildly in the wind, impossible not to want to approach.
Spending day and night together makes it easy to form habits. Back then, Tang Zhi hadn't yet realized that her feelings had already crossed the line.
It wasn't until she saw Ji Wanqiu give someone else the same gentle smile that Tang Zhi could no longer suppress her jealousy. Only then did she gradually realize that the seed of love had been planted earlier than she thought.
Late at night, when Ji Wanqiu didn't know, Tang Zhi gazed at her sleeping profile. Love and possessiveness surged in her eyes, almost overflowing. She smiled softly and placed a light kiss on the woman's lips.
"Big Sister, you're finally mine."
