Weakness

My new novel, Stealing a Bite, is now updating!

Not-quite-siblings | Mutual pining | One-on-one romance | Happy ending

A seemingly timid, well-behaved younger sister who's actually sweet on the outside and scheming within x a seemingly cool and indifferent male lead who's even more calculating inside

Xu Chengyun thought Xu Xuanzhou liked obedient girls, so she pretended to be one for over a decade.

Xu Xuanzhou was afraid Xu Chengyun would hate him, so he ran away from her for over a decade.

-

The first person Xu Chengyun saw when she entered the Xu household was Xu Xuanzhou.

Her mother reminded her, "From now on, he'll be your older brother."

Xu Chengyun stood in the living room on the first floor and looked up impatiently. What she saw was a pair of ice-cold eyes peering from behind the staircase.

He glanced at her without a trace of emotion, then turned and walked away.

Fine. We'll stay out of each other's way.

Xu Xuanzhou always followed the rules, acting like a dutiful older brother and never crossing that line.

But he couldn't help it when someone insisted on provoking him.

-

Xu Xuanzhou knew his little sister was the sweetest, most obedient girl in the world, so he would never believe that the person embracing a strange man in a bar overseas right now was Xu Chengyun.

But the truth was

Xu Chengyun turned around and gave him a seductive wave. "Big brother, what a coincidence."

She only meant to put on a little act for Xu Xuanzhou, but things got out of hand.

In the dim private room, Xu Chengyun's hands were bound tightly. A sharp glint emerged from her dark eyes:

"Did he touch you here?"

The woman couldn't speak.

Xu Xuanzhou bent down. "Then I'll cover it with my scent."

-

In everyone's eyes, Xu Xuanzhou was flawless, without a single weakness.

Xu Chengyun thought so too.

Only later did she learn that his weakness

was her.

1. The male and female leads are not on the same household registration, and there is no legal or moral relationship between them.

2. The male lead's father and the female lead's mother have never had any relationship. The leads' feelings only develop after they learn their parents are not involved with each other.

Theme: You are my medicine.
