Tempting Her

In her previous life, after her family fell into decline, Lin Sangyao was forced to become Lin Wenyu's plaything. He toyed with her as he pleased, stripping her of all the dignity of a noble-born young lady. In the end, she died a tragic death.

Reborn by chance, Lin Sangyao is once again the noble-born young lady adored by all and admired by countless talented young men.

At this point in her previous life, Lin Wenyu was still an illegitimate son in the Marquis's household. His birth mother was dead, his father disliked him, and countless people bullied and looked down on him. Even the servants took every chance to kick him while he was down.

No one could have guessed that his true identity was that of royal blood, lost and raised outside the palace.

After being reborn, Lin Sangyao thought of Lin Wenyu, her nominal older brother, grabbed a stick, and stormed angrily over to his room.

Instead, she saw a handsome man standing in the courtyard. His clothes were torn to shreds, exposing bloody wounds.

Feeling her presence, he turned his deep, shadowed gaze toward her.

Lin Sangyao's heart clenched. Instinctively, she hid the stick behind her back and called out in a trembling voice, "Brother..."

She failed to notice that the man's gaze had grown even darker, filled with possessive desire.

.

At the darkest point in Lin Wenyu's life, Lin Sangyao had unexpectedly barged into his world. She would look at him awkwardly, her eyes full of both fear and disgust, yet still shield him with her slender frame.

She made him swear that he would repay her someday, that no matter what happened, he would treat her well and never bully her. Lin Wenyu played the part of a gentle older brother and obediently went along with her.

Later, when his true identity was revealed to the world, she was still the noble-born young lady adored by all, more radiant and dazzling than ever, living a life utterly unlike her tragic fate in her previous life.

One day, she smiled and shared the thoughts in her heart with him. "There's someone I like. I'm getting married soon."

Lin Wenyu, who had always been gentle, changed his expression. He pinned her between himself and the wall, his eyes filled with menace and possessiveness. "Tell me, Sangyao. Who do you like, and who are you planning to marry?"

The male and female leads are not related by blood, and both know they aren't siblings.

The romance only begins after they end their familial relationship.
