PROLOGUE

That night, in the dim light of the Buddhist hall, the young girl, soft and delicate like jade, with eyes like waves, fainted in the arms of the Liang family's patriarch, the elder brother of her late husband.

"Big Brother, will Third Brother never come back? What about me… what should I do in the future..."

[Male lead's perspective]

Liang Yun was like snow on a mountain, noble in character and self-disciplined. He was respected by everyone, a gentleman whom countless women admired but could never reach.

The old matriarch had only asked him as a test, whether he would take a concubine from the third branch to leave a successor for his late younger brother. She never expected the usually rigid eldest grandson to agree to such an outrageous request.

Unexpectedly, after a brief silence, Liang Yun silently agreed to this absurd arrangement.

At first, he only wanted to protect her for his brother's sake, to give her a stable life. He was willing to be an invisible man and leave her with a child, with only a memory to hold on to.

However, as time passed, he fell deeper into the relationship.

In countless passionate nights, he kissed her lips over and over, asking her: "Between me and my brother, who do you love more?"
