Three years after their parents returned to Jing City from an overseas work assignment, Sheng Xuanyi somehow ended up with a second younger sister he had never wanted. His parents named her Ji Nian.
She took neither her mother's nor her father's surname. Her parents explained to Sheng Xuanyi that they had named her in memory of Uncle Ji, their comrade who had died in the line of duty.
More than a decade passed in a flash, and the annoying little sister had gradually become someone he could hardly bear to part with, bound to him by blood.
Sheng Xuanyi could hardly relate to his past self. How could he not have wanted such an adorable, lovable little princess, even if she was a bit spoiled?
One day after graduation, Sheng Xuanyi spent the night at home and accidentally overheard his parents arguing in their room. His father insisted on telling his sister the truth about her background once she came of age, while his mother refused.
Stunned, he groped his way downstairs to the kitchen, hoping to grab a cold drink from the fridge and clear his head.
A switch clicked behind him, and the lights flared on. Ji Nian stood there wearing nothing but a bath towel wrapped around her chest. When she saw him, she screamed, "A ghost! Sheng Xuanyi? Why are you creeping around in the dark without turning on the lights?!"
Sheng Xuanyi opened a bottle and gulped down some ice water. Then he walked over, picked up the shawl she'd tossed aside earlier that day, and flung it at her face. "Watch your manners. Call me big brother."
The girl's furious retort was, "Sheng Xuanyi, are you insane?!"
Later, deep in the night, in a room where he couldn't tell if he was awake or dreaming, the girl sat on top of him and still called him Sheng Xuanyi, with no respect for his seniority. "Are you crazy?"
But this time he tightened his grip around her waist, kissed her lips, and wouldn't let her pull away. "Call me big brother."
