Fake siblings | Honest younger sister x refined scoundrel of an older brother
Shen Wei was born in the countryside. Though she had no fine clothes or good food, she had a gentle older brother who cherished and protected her.
When she was nine, her brother climbed into a carriage and never came back.
Shen Wei pressed her mother for answers and learned that he wasn't her biological brother. Her mother had adopted him.
Later, her mother passed away, leaving her all alone.
Years later, when she met her brother again, he had become the head of the prominent Wen family, elegant and composed.
Just as before, he gently stroked her hair and warmly called her childhood nickname.
“Xiao Xiao, come home with me.”
Shen Wei's nose stung. She threw herself into his arms, tears soaking his clothes.
She would never be separated from her brother again.

Her brother brought Shen Wei back to his residence and treated her with tender care, granting her every request.
Shen Wei was completely content. All she wanted was to stay by her brother's side for a long time, but after a while, she began to feel that something was off...
The handkerchief she'd lost turned up in her brother's room. The pastry she'd bitten into disappeared without a trace...
And especially, after drinking the soup her maid brought before bed, she'd wake in the morning with red marks on her neck.
Then one night, she woke with a start and saw her brother sitting at her bedside, his expression dark and unreadable.
Shen Wei was thrown into a panic. Just then, a young gentleman began making his interest in her clear, and she accepted him.
On the day the young gentleman came to ask for her hand, her brother sat in the seat of honor, a smile playing on his lips, and casually refused the proposal.
That night, her usually proper and gentle brother became a different person.
He held her captive in his arms, his thumb rubbing the corner of her lips, damp from his kisses. His eyes churned with a possessiveness that sent a chill down her spine.
“Xiao Xiao said we'd be together forever.”
“You want a husband. Why can't it be me?”
#She sees him as her real brother, but he's been coveting her for ages#
