Don't Run, Fu Mei!

Mad, obsessive Yang Guo × spoiled young lady × sweet-faced, dark-hearted Buddhist monk

Yang Guo has been reborn.

In his previous life, when he learned that Guo Fu had died in the fall of Xiangyang, he finally understood: he had hated her all his life and loved her all his life without ever realizing it.

This time, back at the Heroes’ Gathering, Guo Jing asked him in front of everyone, “Guo’er, will you take Fu’er as your wife?”

He did not refuse as he had in his previous life.

He fell to his knees. “Your son-in-law, Yang Guo, pays his respects to his honored father-in-law.”

The crowd erupted. Xiao Longnu went deathly pale. Guo Fu jumped up and shouted, “Who wants to marry you? You think you’re good enough?”

He only smiled, his eyes holding the madness and tenderness of someone who had lived through the vicissitudes of life. “That’s not for you to decide, little sister Fu. This time, I’ll decide.”

He would marry her. He would dote on her. He would repay her twice over for everything he had owed her in his previous life.

But he never expected someone new to appear in this life:

Wunian, the Buddhist prodigy of Shaolin Temple.

His Dharma name was Wunian, meaning “no thoughts,” and he was meant to be free of desire. He had the face of an immortal, and his white robes were immaculate, untouched by worldly dust.

One day, Guo Fu rode down the mountain and trampled his alms bowl, cursing him as a “bald monk blocking the road.” He looked up, sunlight falling across her bold, bright eyes.

In that moment, the name “Wunian” became the greatest delusion of his life.

He took arrows for her, shed blood for her, and broke the vows he had kept for nineteen years.

At last, he asked, “If I were to leave the monastery, would you... give me a chance?”

Guo Fu was stunned. She looked at the handsome monk, as elegant as a painting, then at Yang Guo nearby, whose eyes were full of anxious uncertainty.

She had no idea whom to choose.
