As I lay dying, Li Jinyang was busy marrying my younger sister.
He smashed the jade pendant I’d sent to beg for help.
“I’ve seen plenty of women stage a drama to win favor.”
“If you’re going to die, do it soon. Don’t ruin the auspicious hour for my wedding.”
Later, he came to the Shen residence to summon me, but everyone who had once seen me kept their mouths shut.
Only the tea seller who had once helped deliver my jade pendant prostrated herself before him. “Miss Shen is dead.”
Just as he wished, I died. But Li Jinyang went mad.
He searched the whole city, determined to find my body and use a supernatural art to bring me back reborn.
