A sensitive, insecure, and stoic older brother VS a sunny but conflicted younger sister [Mutual Pining | Second Chance Romance]
Jiang Min has an "older brother" she brought home. His name is Song Zheng.
Song Zheng treats her wonderfully. He can be her personal servant, waiting on her hand and foot, with just one taboo: she must never say, "I don't want you anymore."
When Jiang Min was in middle school, Song Zheng was the top student in his grade at a prestigious high school.
One day, Song Zheng came to walk her home after school, and she suddenly realized he wasn't the same as before.
Beneath a streetlamp surrounded by the mosquitoes of midsummer, the young man's handsome face made even an ordinary school uniform look like something out of a romance drama.
She began to take a closer look.
Hmm, his eyes are lovely, and so is his nose. Hmm, his personality is great too, especially how good he is to me.
Hmm? Oh no, why is my heart beating so fast?
One love letter after another came Song Zheng's way, and Jiang Min couldn't take it anymore.
If other people could write him letters, so could she!
Her pink love letter had barely been written, still warm from the effort, when it landed in Song Zheng's hands.
Jiang Min stood beside the desk, head lowered, but with a defiant air. Why shouldn't she be allowed to write one?
For the first time, her brother lost his temper. His face went pale, then flushed. He silently read the letter over and over, almost able to recite it from memory.
"Who is it for?"
His voice was stiff and strained, but he still remembered to keep it low and as gentle as possible.
Jiang Min suddenly looked up. Oh no, she'd forgotten to sign her name.
When her brother disappeared, the sad songs in Jiang Min's headphones played year after year.
With college graduation fast approaching, Jiang Min decided to have one last campus romance. A gentle, considerate upperclassman and a bright, sunny intern both reminded her of her brother from certain angles.
No! Unfortunately, she ran into a scheming playboy who used the fact that he'd entered the working world a few years earlier to take advantage of her.
That was when Song Zheng appeared. He parted the crowd and rescued the girl huddled in a corner of the academic advisor's office. Without a hint of hesitation, he reached out and wiped her tear-streaked face clean.
"Why are you crying harder and harder?"
"Isn't your big brother right here?"
P.S. The leads are not related by blood, and they are each other's only partners.
They are five years apart in age.
