The Brother Who Forgot to Hate Me

My name is A Cha. I heard that A Yan picked me up from a battlefield. I say "heard" because I have forgotten much of my past.

A Yan is the emperor of Great Chu. No matter how busy he is with state affairs, he always makes time to have a meal with me every day.

A Yan is a gentle person, the best person in the world to me. He covers me with the blanket when I kick it off in the middle of the night, remembers my period, personally makes ginger tea, and warms my stomach...

Not to mention the lavish life and all those priceless jewels.

Today, I wanted to surprise A Yan, but I saw someone kneeling in the hall. A Yan was not as gentle as usual. He was cold and frightening.

"Li Dingyan, you treacherous usurper! You murdered your father and brother, killed the prince consort, took your own sister for yourself, and spun a lie in an attempt to keep the princess by your side. You are cruel, vile, and disgusting..."

After that, the person fell silent. She was dead.

Her corpse, its eyes like those of a dead fish, stared fixedly at me from behind the curtain.

I was so frightened that I knocked over a candlestick. A Yan noticed me and approached, at a loss for what to do.

No, he wasn't A Yan. I suddenly remembered that years ago, he had been my elder brother.

I drove my hairpin deep into his chest. "You're disgusting."

He took hold of my hand, pulled out the hairpin, and let out a low laugh. "But didn't you once say that your elder brother was the most important person to you?"

Yes, I had always cherished him most. But suddenly, I missed the way he used to be when he hated me most.

Not like this, entwined with me on the bed, clinging to each other desperately in every corner of the golden palace.

He kissed away my tears again and again. "Love your brother one more time, all right?"

Male lead's perspective:

I have a half-sister named A Cha.

Her mother fought my mother to the death. I hate her.

She chatters beside me and is so noisy. I wish she would disappear forever.

Her mother is gone too. She threw herself into my arms and cried bitterly. Fool, I'm so happy.

War broke out, and we were both sent to Wei.

Life in Wei was miserable. I wanted to abandon her, but she smiled and gave me the last piece of bread. What a fool.

Fine, I'll keep her around a little longer.

I wish she were a kite.

A Cha was naughty today and flew into another man's hands.

It doesn't matter. I hold her string.

She has forgotten me. That's all right. Our nineteen years together have long since become part of our flesh and blood. We are the people most precious to each other.

A younger sister can only love her elder brother.

2. They are not actually siblings, and the old emperor was cuckolded.
