After returning reborn, Su Zhao has only one thought: slack off and wait to die.
In her previous life, she descended to the mortal world for love, only to be stabbed through the heart by the man she loved. This time, she can’t be bothered to explain anything. She just wants to lie around. Who would’ve guessed she’d be mistaken for a demoness, dragged to a sacred Buddhist sanctuary, and foisted onto that cool, ascetic young Buddhist monk?
At their first meeting, his prayer beads snapped.
From then on, the monk went mad. When she slept, he guarded her door. When she snuck food, he kept watch. When someone bullied her, he used his authority for the first time to drive them out of the monastery. The whole temple was abuzz: the monk had fallen for a mortal.
Su Zhao crunched sunflower seeds as she watched the show, laughing at what a fool he was.
Until the Trial of the Heart, when her memories of her previous life returned. The lofty Buddhist monk knelt before her in front of the whole world, tears streaming down his face. “It was me... I was the one who wronged you.”
She looked down at him, her expression calm. “Xuanqing, I waited so long for this day. So long that... I don’t want to wait anymore.”
Later, when the heavenly demons descended, he shattered his Buddha bones and willingly became a demon. “Zhaozhao, this time, let me protect you.”
She watched his bloodied silhouette standing in front of her, and the walls she’d built around her heart for a thousand years finally crumbled.
It turned out he really was willing to die for me.
Gods and Buddhas, demons and monsters, none can compare to the warmth of an ordinary life with you by my side.
Very interesting, recommended to watch, 🤔
