Ye Yiyun vs. Yan Shuche
A melodramatic rebirth story [The first man to appear isn’t the real love interest. The real one appears in Chapter 9.]
Childhood sweethearts, made for each other. The weary bird returns to its nest, and you belong to me.
Miaojiang Gu poison manipulates the mind. The young Moon Master, orphaned as a child, is schemed against on his way to find his brother. He gives his whole heart to the wrong person and doesn’t even recognize the one he loves.
For ten years, someone else occupied the nest he’d built. He had given his life and death to the wrong person, and only after Yan Shuche died did Ye Yiyun learn that the young man he had carefully protected had suffered torment and humiliation at that person’s side.
He had tried to snatch Yan Shuche away and lock him up, turning him into a beautiful canary trapped in a little world of his own.
But that was the boy he’d raised from childhood, so spirited and passionate. He couldn’t bring himself to be cruel, and could only stay by his side and protect him.
Yet what awaited him was not Yan Shuche’s gratitude, but clothes cut to sever their ties, a sword pressed to his neck, and news that Yan Shuche was marrying that person.
The arrogantly delivered invitation seemed to tear apart the little affection between them. Driven by a moment of selfishness, he went to the Demon Sect.
He had hoped to see Yan Shuche dressed in his wedding robes, but instead found iron shackles around the boy’s ankles and a stranger’s look in his eyes.
The gravely ill young man had little time left. He died on a snowy night.
To find his beloved again, Ye Yiyun resorts to forbidden magic. The boy, his memories incomplete, follows his instincts back to the person most familiar to him.
Ye Yiyun dares not reveal the feelings he has kept hidden, but somehow they find their way into his dreams, where he sees Yan Shuche at his most wretched.
The boy stands on shards of porcelain, blood everywhere, his expression twisted with madness as he shoves handfuls of medicine into his mouth and repeats the same few words over and over.
