Reborn as Yang Guo: In This Life, I Love Only Guo Fu

[The characters may be out of character, and I've added some original details. Please forgive me. Feel free to leave if it's not for you.]

Reborn, Yang Guo wants to become a noble and upright gentleman, as bright and clear as the moon.

Then he sees Guo Fu, and the dead wood of his heart blooms again, though this time it blooms into madness.

In front of others, he is the most proper and composed of all the Quanzhen disciples, like a gentle breeze and a bright moon.

In private, he is a dark, obsessive demon who clings only to her.

She is his Dao, his tribulation,

and the obsession he kept buried for a lifetime, finally daring to indulge to the very end.

[Content Warnings]

- Rebirth + unrequited love fulfilled, devoted male lead, told from his perspective

- The male lead seems indifferent and easygoing at first, but falls hard the moment he meets the heroine

- The heroine is spoiled and radiant; the angrier she gets, the more he loves her

- Rebirth, male lead's perspective, Yang Guo secretly loves Guo Fu

- Yang Guo is completely smitten with Guo Fu: the angrier she gets, the more he likes her; the more she flares up, the more he cares. This is not a traditional gentle, indulgent romance

- Canon pairings are broken up. Yang Guo and Guo Fu are the couple, with no Xiaolongnü storyline. Proceed with caution if that's not your thing

- No extreme mistreatment of the heroine and no contrived misunderstandings. The focus is on regrets from the past life and sweet romance in this one
