[Modern Master and Servant]
[Average writing / Modern alternate universe / Two male leads / Stark power imbalance / Master-servant fiction / One-on-one, both devoted to each other / Past life and present life / Mild emotional angst / Happy ending]
For Hua Youzhang, having memories of his so-called past life was no bad thing. Whether as the powerful Palace Master Zhong in his previous life or as the young master of the incomparable Hua family, born into one of the most elite families in this life, Hua Youzhang was unquestionably on top. In this life, he even seemed to have a chance to make up for what he'd lost.
He could see everyone he'd wronged in his past life living a happy, fulfilled life here. If there was one regret, it was that he could never find Jiudu, the hidden guard he'd nearly driven mad in his previous life.
Hua Youzhang knew, of course, that not everyone could arrive a thousand years later with their memories intact. But most of the people who had made it here still bore some trace of their former selves. Jiudu alone was nowhere to be found, utterly unique and impossible to track down.
People still honored, respected, and feared him. Amid the countless faces, Hua Youzhang never again saw those eyes filled with such sincere emotion.
Then, shortly before graduation, a bloody case of a servant rising against his master erupted at the prestigious school.
His arrival in the chaos made the crowd part to open a path, but one person stubbornly knelt before him, shielding him from the bloody scene behind.
In a world that was noisy yet silent, Hua Youzhang found the bright eyes etched into his memories.
He had to be his Jiudu, Hua Youzhang thought. But in this life, he was only Shen Chongjiu, raised by a second-tier family to become a servant of the upper class.
By a twist of fate, Shen Chongjiu regained his memories of his past life, just as Hua Youzhang had wished. But now he was completely out of place in this world: insecure, timid, old-fashioned... and afraid of his master.
I hope it can be a little angsty 😘 The author's writing is excellent, I recommended it to my classmates and they all said it was very good. I just ask that the master be a little less harsh on the slave, thank you!!!
The setup is excellent, highly recommended.
It's incredibly good! Those who love angst are in for a treat!
Their feelings are very delicate. They both love each other.
