[Two male leads + both pure + reborn + light political intrigue]
In his previous life, Mu Yinhuai’s own father was turned into a human pig, his close friend had his face flayed, and Shen Jinxian kept Mu Yinhuai imprisoned and abused him for three years.
Reborn, he was once again the dashing young Master Mu, while Shen Jinxian was nothing but a lowly nobody.
Watching Shen Jinxian kneeling on the ground and enduring a whipping, Mu Yinhuai drew his sword and killed him on the spot.
But every time Mu Yinhuai killed him, he suffered a pain that pierced to the bone, then returned to the starting point of his rebirth.
On the verge of breaking down, Mu Yinhuai thought of letting Shen Jinxian leave the Mu residence. If he avoided getting involved with him from then on, he could keep the Mu family safe.
But Shen Jinxian refused to leave. “Young Master is kind. I’m willing to be your servant.”
And then...
Mu Yinhuai kicked him. He rubbed Mu Yinhuai’s foot and said, “This servant’s shoulders are hard, so it hurts when you kick them. Next time, kick this servant in the face.”
Mu Yinhuai threw things at him. He brushed Mu Yinhuai’s hand and asked, “Does your hand hurt, Young Master?”
Mu Yinhuai slapped him. He pressed his tongue against his cheek and said, “Young Master smells so good.”
Mu Yinhuai ground his teeth. “You’re just as twisted as you were in my last life.”
Mu Yinhuai hated him. When enemy forces invaded, he abandoned Shen Jinxian amid the encirclement of enemy soldiers.
When they met again, Shen Jinxian had become a general admired by everyone, while Mu Yinhuai was the son of a traitor despised by all.
He thought Shen Jinxian would torment him and hate him, but the great general knelt on one knee before everyone and said, “Young Master, this servant is late.”
Only later did Mu Yinhuai learn he had hated the wrong person.
In his previous life, the real Shen Jinxian had long since been left exposed outside the city walls to save Mu Yinhuai’s life.
Mu Yinhuai wept and laughed at once.
“Shen Jinxian, why has your life been so hard?”
Mu Yinhuai gently kissed away his tears. “Try me again. I won’t be bitter.”
