True Colors Revealed

When my wife was drugged at a drinking party and dragged into an abandoned warehouse,

I didn't rush in to stop it, heedless of my own safety like I had in my previous life.

Back then, I'd ruined my own prospects to keep her from making a politically damaging mistake.

But in return, she slapped me to the ground, then grabbed me in disheveled clothes and shouted that I was a shameless rapist.

From then on, I was known throughout the military as “the rapist.”

“What a beast! How could anyone do something so utterly vile?”

“Maybe this wasn't the first time. People like him should be shot!”

The rumors were like knives, carving into my flesh again and again.

Being forced to marry Zhu Yan made my life even worse than death.

Later, when she discovered she was pregnant, she had an abortion straight away.

Even after the miscarriage, she kept spreading rumors about me.

The neighbors all called me heartless and accused me of trying to kill her for her money.

My parents did everything they could to make Zhu Yan treat me better.

They threw all their support behind her, securing all kinds of awards and honors for her, until she became the youngest deputy-level official around.

But on the day I got into a car accident, Zhu Yan deliberately delayed taking me to the hospital.

All I could do was watch my blood stain the ground red and wait for death to come.

“If you hadn't stuck your nose in my business back then, I'd have been married long ago. This is what you get!”

I died covered in blood, unable to rest in peace.

When I opened my eyes again, I was back on the day she was drugged.

I stood outside the factory building, listening to the sounds within, and slowly smiled.

In this life, I'll make sure you two vile lovers get exactly what you deserve!
