The silly, sweet little sister ✖️ the composed, restrained “fatherly” type.
Ming Zhao, the eldest daughter of the Ming family in North City, enjoyed her older brother’s pampering and spent her days acting like a little tyrant, running rampant across the city. Even if she caused a huge scandal, her older brother, with his thunderous methods, would always clean up after her.
That is, until her brother was officially acknowledged by the Zhou family and became the sole heir.
With a new family, a blood-related little sister, and the perfect marriage alliance waiting… everyone gossiped and secretly mocked the eldest Miss Ming, believing she had finally lost her support and that her glory days were over. They eagerly waited for her to stumble.
Unexpectedly, at a certain banquet, she ran into—
The eldest Miss hooked a man’s tie, her eyes sparkling, and tapped her lips with a finger. The always-composed Zhou family head leaned slightly forward, pressing a kiss to the dimple on her cheek. Seeing her frown in displeasure, he whispered softly,
“Be good. We’ll make trouble at home.”
—When they were children, Ming Zhao had angrily placed her hands on her hips and scolded Zhou Tingyun for being a scoundrel, swearing to sever their sibling bond with the wicked boy. Later, in bed, Zhou Tingyun massaged her ankle and calmly admitted,
“Yes, I am a scoundrel.”
