The Northern Ghost King

[Bad Ending + Love Triangle Between Three Men + Two Male Leads + First-Person POV]

(Open ending: Both male leads, Liu Changqing and Murong Yu, die. Murong Yu and the other man grow old without ever speaking again, and the heroine marries an old friend she has known for years.)

The Southern Ghost King is my lawful husband. In everyone else’s eyes, he cherishes me above all and loves me to the bone. Only I know just how dirty his methods of dealing with me are.

Liu Changqing has loved Murong Yu for years and has always regarded me as his mortal enemy. Yet, because his love is unrequited, he has no choice but to endure it, getting entangled with Murong Yu and giving up on becoming an immortal.

After Murong Yu betrayed me, I grew suspicious of love and came to distrust everyone in this world, especially those closest to me. Later, I unexpectedly met Lucifer, a deranged and fallen angel from the West, and made a bet with him: whoever loses becomes a turtle.
