Winter Lychee [Cui Ying X Lian Huai, Modern Version 2]

When Cui Ying was eight, she went to live with the Lian family.

The Lians had an incredibly handsome son, Lian Huai, whose beauty reminded her of the bright moon in a clear night sky. She fell for him at first sight.

Sadly, he was bound to hate her because her arrival meant he had to share half his candy with her.

Later, she took half his allowance, half his free time, half his hugs and piggyback rides...

And even half his bed.

One morning, Cui Ying was lying in her brother's arms, waiting for him to get up so he could comb her hair. It finally dawned on her: Wasn't this a little different from the story she'd imagined?

The Lian couple had prepared themselves to have a serious talk, but never got the chance: "...?!" They were a little surprised, but relieved to see how close the children were.

Luyuan Middle School is the most famous private school in the area, and every student comes from a distinguished family.

After Cui Ying transfers there, Lian Huai is always worried that the other students will bully her because she's living with another family, so he looks after and spoils her at every turn.

His little sister is indeed rather delicate. Whenever anything happens, she just throws herself into his arms, pouting and crying to him, making his heart ache.

Until one day, Lian Huai opens his desk at school and finds that the anonymous love letters that usually fill it have been replaced by a stack of signed complaint letters.

They accuse Cui Ying of all sorts of misdeeds, and every letter is signed by one of the school's notorious bullies who throw their weight around. The other girls are even too scared to write him love letters anymore.

Lian Huai: "..."

It must be a misunderstanding.

His little sister is so adorable. How could she do something like that?

A cool, gentle big brother x a little sister who's only cute around him, and otherwise a demon king

A little bonus scene:

One day, the top student brother is reading in English and disturbing his book-loving little sister.

Cui Ying: You're so noisy. I'm going to use a silencing spell on you.

Lian Huai: How?

Cui Ying: Look up.

Then she cups his face and gives him a kiss on the lips.

Lian Huai's face instantly turns red to the tips of his ears, and he can't say a word: "...!"

Cui Ying smiles happily: See? It works really well, doesn't it?

You are my winter lychee, giving me the sweetness of summer in the cold wind.

Also known as "My Delicate Little Demon King Sister", "The Eighteen Layers of Rose-Colored Glasses My Sibling and I Have for Each Other", and "I Really Like You"

Reading guide:

1. The female lead merely lives in the male lead's home. They have no legal, ethical, or blood relationship as siblings. "Big Brother" is just a polite form of address, like calling someone the boy next door.

2. Both leads are each other's first love, and this is a super sweet, doting happy ending! They don't date before coming of age, so expect only cozy everyday moments. Once they're adults, it becomes a romance!

3. Cui Ying and Lian Huai are part of a series with the same character concepts. The original character concepts appear in "Demon Cult Enchantress x Righteous Young Hero".

Theme: Love and warmth.
