Adorable sweetheart X gentle, fatherly man / Eight-year age gap / A growing-up romance
Lin Shuyao was the adopted daughter of the He family of Beicheng. When she first met her new older brother, He Bojun, she clung to the teddy bear in her arms, tears of fear and panic streaming down her face.
With hands as fine as jade, the young man patted her back and spoke in a cool voice: "Shuyao, I'm your big brother."
He Bojun was the heir the He family had raised to take over the business: a favored child of heaven, dignified and gentle. He had always been strict with his younger sister, too.
An older brother is like a father, and Lin Shuyao hated how rigid he was. Yet the ever-busy He Bojun would accompany her to Fashion Week and let her use his unlimited credit card. When Lin Shuyao's confession to her senior ended in failure, it was He Bojun who held her in his arms and soothed her with a goodnight kiss on the forehead.
Later, pressured by her adoptive parents, Lin Shuyao agreed to a marriage alliance. On the night of her engagement, He Bojun, who should have been far away in New York, trapped her in a room.
Lin Shuyao sat on the man's lap, her tender skin rubbed red, and sobbed uncontrollably. "You're my brother."
He Bojun gently kissed away her tears and said in a hoarse voice, "Shuyao, no one understands how to care for you better than I do, and no one loves you more than I do."
"I shouldn't be your brother. I should be your husband."
