The Chain of the Cage
Their reunion at a bar on a stormy night was like a key, unlocking the obsession Shen Yu had kept buried for three years.
He was a business tycoon who could turn the tide with a flick of his hand. The person he had spent three years using every resource at his disposal to find was now sitting at the bar, tapping out the same rhythm as years ago, though an unfamiliar chill glinted in his eyes.
“Mr. Shen, you’ve got the wrong person.” Lin Qingci raised his glass with graceful detachment, as if all the entanglements, hurt, and bloody farewells of their past life had been nothing but a delusional dream in Shen Yu’s mind.
But Shen Yu remembered. He remembered the stubborn look in the eyes of the seventeen-year-old who had just arrived. He remembered the bite marks he had left on his collarbone, the bloodstained white shirt on that final night, and, most of all, the words Lin Qingci had whispered in his ear as he lay dying in their previous life: “Wait for me.”
He laid a vast, inescapable net, using his business empire as bait, all to lock this escaped cat back in its cage. But he had no idea what turbulent history lay beneath Lin Qingci’s cool exterior. Lin Qingci had returned with the memories of two lifetimes, seeking both redemption and another plunge into a dangerous obsession he knew he could not resist.
When the chain of a yandere tycoon meets its “prey,” who carries memories of a past life, who is imprisoning whom in this tug-of-war fought in the name of love?
The grass has grown and withered on their graves, but their entanglement has only just begun.
