Scheming to Claim You

[Male rivalry, possessive love]

Qin Wanqing, the legitimate daughter of the Earl's household, was gentle, talented, and beautiful. After spending some time in the countryside to recover from an illness, she returned to the capital and, at her father's command, married into the Duke of Zhenguo's household, to which she had long been betrothed.

Not long after their wedding, her husband took her to pay respects to his elder brother, who had returned from military service.

Qin Wanqing followed obediently behind her husband, until a dark voice sounded above her head: "Sister-in-law?"

It was as cold as if the words had been forced through clenched teeth.

Qin Wanqing abruptly looked up. But when she saw the man seated at the head of the room, she froze in place.

Wei Zheng had won great military honors for Dayin. No one knew that when he was young, he had been in love with a young woman who loved him in return. Just as he was about to propose, she vanished.

On the day Wei Zheng returned victorious, his younger brother brought his new bride to pay respects to him.

He looked up. The young woman nestled in his second brother's arms was none other than the woman he had intended to propose to!

As Wei Zheng watched the newlyweds, his five fingers curled inside his sleeve, his knuckles clenched white.

He could yield the title of heir to his second brother, but Qin Wanqing...

He was going to take her back.

#My husband's brother is my ex?!#
