[Brothers in life become enemies / Gentle, unhinged Beijing socialite / Forbidden romance]

◎ Addictive-personality Beijing socialite x rebellious social butterfly

At nineteen, Shen Xianyue did two things.

One, she left the Beijing Chen family, who had raised her for years, and went away to study.

Two, she got a boyfriend.

Her boyfriend was her older brother from the Chen family’s sworn brotherhood, and she was very pleased with him.

On the day they made their relationship official, she returned to the Chen home to plan her next trip. But the man approached her step by step and sniffed the air beside her, his head tilted slightly...

"Ayue."

"You smell like someone else."

At that moment, Shen Xianyue caught a familiar look in her "brother's" eyes.

It was the same way her boyfriend looked at her when they kissed passionately, lost in the moment.

Chen Zhaolin dotes on the younger sister who was brought into his home to live with the family years ago.

He and his sworn brother raised her together.

Everyone congratulates the young woman when she makes her relationship public. Only Chen Zhaolin's smile hides fathomless depths.

Half a month later, Chen Zhaolin glances at Shen Xianyue's swollen, bitten lips and harshly wipes the glistening moisture from the corner of her mouth with his thumb. Then he gently asks, "Tell your brother, who is that piece of trash?"

Shen Xianyue is rebellious by nature and doesn't want to say anything.

Unexpectedly, something belonging to her boyfriend suddenly slips from her pocket. Chen Zhaolin stares at it, eyes blazing with fury.

There is only one person around him who would use this.

It is his sworn brother.
