Biting Crimson Lips

Jiang Ge’er was doted on from childhood, but an accident left her an orphan whom anyone could bully. She had planned to seek refuge with her aunt and find someone to protect her. Then, in a dream, she glimpsed a fragment of the future. With no other choice, she had to proceed cautiously, carefully plotting every step as she sought a good family to marry into and a home of her own. Yet somehow, she caught Pei Yunjin’s eye. In public, she would softly call him, “Uncle.” In private, pinned beneath him on the bed, she heard his low, lingering voice by her ear: “From now on, I’ll protect you… Don’t be afraid…” … The first time Pei Yunjin saw Jiang Ge’er, he couldn’t take his eyes off her. His life had always gone smoothly, and he could have anything he wanted. Jiang Ge’er was no different. He had thought it was just a passing whim, but before long, he willingly became her devoted servant. All he wanted was for those eyes to turn toward him.
