Childhood Friends | Twin Brothers Compete for Her | Second Male Lead Takes the Lead
Li Yizhen x Zhou Lin / Zhou Ye
The Zhou family's twin sons looked so alike it was hard to tell them apart, but their personalities couldn't have been more different.
Li Yizhen liked the older brother, Zhou Ye: gentle, considerate, and always attentive, with affection in his eyes and every expression.
But a boy like him attracted admirers too easily. The girls around Zhou Ye came and went, and he never seemed to stay for any of them.
Li Yizhen knew she wouldn't be the exception, so she kept her feelings to herself.
The younger brother, Zhou Lin, was aloof and never joined in their conversations.
Even when the two of them were alone, he treated her like she wasn't there.
Li Yizhen thought he probably didn't like her very much.
Until one day, drunk, she mistook Zhou Lin for Zhou Ye and pushed him down onto the sofa.
In her daze, Li Yizhen seemed to see a powerful emotion creep into those eyes, which had never known romance.
Later, Zhou Ye arrived at Li Yizhen's home with a ring and flowers and knocked on the door.
But it was Zhou Lin who opened it, his clothes disheveled and his hair tousled.
Zhou Ye dropped the flowers, grabbed his younger brother by the collar, and demanded in a low voice, "What are you doing here?"
The collar of Zhou Lin's shirt had been pulled open, revealing a suspicious patch of red on his skin.
"What do you think?" Zhou Lin choked out a couple of coughs as the collar tightened around his neck, then smiled, a rare sight. "She chose me."
