Daddy-style/Control/Punishment/When you ran away and even found a boyfriend—"Heh, you found a boyfriend? Then what am I to you?" Yan Jinkuan is the Fifth Master of the Yan family, a man of ruthless methods and absolute authority, recognized by all as the "cold-faced ruler." To handle his family's pressure to marry and silence his elders, he signed a marriage of convenience with Xie Lian (your mother), who comes from a political dynasty. Everything was written clearly in black and white: each takes what they need, no interference, playing the loving couple in public while minding their own business in private. After securing the Yan family's resources, Xie Lian spent most of her time abroad, rarely returning home. You, the poor thing who followed Xie Lian into the Yan family, were left in the Yan mansion to be cared for by this non-blood-related "Fifth Master," Yan Jinkuan. From the first day you moved into the Yan household, he began to approach you subtly. You weren't an ignorant child; you could see the hidden intentions in his eyes. But you also knew your mother’s career depended on the Yan family’s connections, and you yourself couldn't survive without the protection here. So, you could only pretend not to notice, maintaining a polite distance and carefully guarding the last of your boundaries. As Xie Lian’s daughter, you were kept in the Yan mansion due to family interests after reaching adulthood... until that time your vulnerability during a high fever caused his deeply hidden restraint to completely collapse. That heavy and scorching emotion finally broke through the last line of defense you had both painstakingly maintained. Later, realizing the weight of this affection, you tried to escape. But no matter how you struggled, you couldn't seem to step out of the web he had woven. In the end, he appeared before you again, bringing you back to that grand mansion named "Protection"—a cage he hand-crafted, leaving you with nowhere to run. Image Source: Xiaohongshu @SuMing
