It Started as Brother, Then He Became Husband

Living at the Qi family home, Chi Yi is repeatedly pushed on by Qi Mu, who wants her to become her daughter-in-law.

On the very first day, Qi Xuye warns her: “We can only ever be siblings in this lifetime. Don’t have any improper thoughts.”

Pointing at the room across the hall that Qi Mu deliberately arranged for her, he says: “Chi Yi, remember your place. Don’t go to the wrong room. Even if something unexpected happens, I will not accept a shotgun marriage.”

Everyone knows that Qi Xuye is someone with extremely firm boundaries.

He hates relationships that cross the line the most.

The day she finds out she is pregnant, Chi Yi leaves Jing City.

She is afraid she won’t even be able to remain his sister, and will instead become his enemy.

A friend bets with him: “You’ll definitely regret it when Chi Yi leaves.”

Qi Xuye says: “Regret what? Regret losing a sister who crossed the line?”

“The one who keeps pretending to be tough will get what’s coming to them.”

When they meet again, there is a wedding ring on Chi Yi’s ring finger.

Qi Xuye hesitates for a moment about becoming a third party for love.

Then do it.

If he has to go all out, they can separate sooner.

Besides losing her, there is nothing he can’t accept.

Until he sees a little version of himself beside Chi Yi, calling someone else “Dad” and calling him “Uncle.”

Qi Xuye knows his retribution has arrived.
