Reborn, the Obsessive Crown Prince Keeps Chasing Me

[The seemingly innocent but secretly ruthless crown prince as the pursuer vs. the lovesick beggar as the pursued]

Chen Tingyue is a poor, destitute beggar, barely surviving and living in wretched conditions. Yet he worships one man as a god. Throughout his wretched half-life, he regards that man as his faith, wishing he could offer him his very flesh and blood. He fights for him and would gladly give his life for him.

With feelings he cannot put into words, he follows that man all the way, accompanying him as he climbs step by step toward the throne.

But in the end, he hears that the man is going to marry someone else. Bitter, heartbroken, and grieving, he is powerless to do anything. At last, he drags his broken body through the day of the man's coronation, only to die.

The gulf between their stations is so vast that Chen Tingyue never speaks of his deep love, even on his deathbed.

Heaven takes pity on him and gives him another chance. Chen Tingyue knows the difference between them is like the clouds in the sky and mud beneath one's feet, so he decides not to meet the man at all this time. They will go their separate ways, each to face their own fate.

But when love has taken root so deeply, how can Chen Tingyue stand by and watch the young, inexperienced man die and have his soul vanish? So he helps him again and again, only to sink deeper into the mire each time, unable to escape.

As he watches history begin to repeat itself, Chen Tingyue can only run. But the man grabs him and pulls him back, pinning him in his arms. His eyes bloodshot, his voice low and hoarse, he says, “You took my betrothal gifts and thought you could run? Where else in the world would you find a deal that good?”
