After I Made a Move on My Brother's Best Friend

After Yu Shaoxian's husband died, her family brought her back to her parents' home.

On the day she returned, she met her younger brother's friend at the mansion gates, a tall, spirited young man.

At their first glance, their eyes met, and neither looked away.

After that, the young man often came to see Yu Shaoxian's brother, and even stayed at the Yu residence from time to time.

No one knew that by day the young man discussed poetry and literature with Yu Shaoxian's brother, while by night he shared passionate intimacy with Yu Shaoxian.

Two years later, the emperor arranged a marriage for the young man, and the Yu family chose a new husband for Yu Shaoxian.

Yu Shaoxian decisively ended their brief affair. The young man knew better than to keep pursuing her, and they went their separate ways, each to marry someone else.

But by coincidence, they were to be married on the very same day.

After the wedding rites, Yu Shaoxian sat in the bridal chamber, waiting for her new husband to lift her veil.

By the time the wedding candles had burned halfway down, her new husband finally arrived. But instead of lifting her veil, he led her into the bedchamber.

Just as Yu Shaoxian was losing herself in the moment, someone suddenly pounded on the door so loudly it shook the room. She thought she could hear her new husband's voice, too.

If her new husband was outside, who was the man in bed with her?

Yu Shaoxian yanked off her veil and met a familiar face, slick with sweat.

The man smiled and lowered his head to bite her earlobe. "Should I make him leave, or let him come in? You decide, Sister."

Yu Shaoxian regretted it.

She should never have been attracted to Zhao Chengyun's looks in the first place. He was a madman.

But it was too late.

[What she thought was a moment of attraction was all part of his long-laid plan.]
