#I Thought My Half-Brother Was a Gentleman#
How Yang He sees her half-brother:
Gentle and humble, dignified and courteous, well-versed in poetry and books, and able to tell right from wrong. Though born to a concubine, he never fails to embody the gentlemanly ways of the Yang family.
He's a wonderful, wonderful older brother.
How Yang Lang sees Yang He:
As the legitimate daughter, she's spoiled, hypocritical, and vain.
She openly enjoys everyone's care and affection, yet puts on a false show of concern for all living things.
She's a deeply, deeply fake person.
[Female Lead's Blurb]
Yang He has always looked up to her older brother.
He is unlike other men. He doesn't flatter or feign sincerity.
He's gentle and aloof, like the moon in the sky.
Until one day, she accidentally sees Yang Lang strangling a burly servant to death in the back garden.
The servant foams at the mouth, his lips turning purple.
Her brother's face is expressionless. His movements are smooth and practiced, not the least bit hesitant.
At the time, she doesn't know.
The miscarriage of the First Madam and the disappearance of the Second Young Master are both his doing.
Nor does she know that from the moment he returned to the Yang family and laid eyes on her, Yang Lang had been plotting in secret.
A pretty, hypocritical fraud like her would one day be killed by his own hands, in the most brutal way possible.
A seemingly gentle concubine-born son, inwardly so insecure that it has turned him dark, x a bright, gentle, harmless legitimate daughter.
An antisocial personality who "only wants to fuck up this goddamn world" x a little ray of sunshine who thinks, "My brother is the kindest and best person in the world."
