[Mad power-hungry male lead + black-lotus female lead + two strong leads + two mad schemers + forced love]
On the day my entire family was sentenced to death, my betrothed, Jun Ye, looked down at me and asked, “The Lu family is finished. Do you hate me?”
To survive, I met his gaze, my face alight with madness. “They were the ones who stood in your way, my husband. I love only you. What do I care about anyone else?”
He called me a lunatic, said my madness was just a disguise because I was afraid to die.
He had no idea that I was a demon just like him, using a feigned, obsessive love to kill my way into his heart, one step at a time.
He gripped my throat and threatened me. “Be my sharpest blade. When you’re no longer useful, I’ll kill you.”
I caressed his face, feigning a lovestruck gaze. “Then, my husband, I choose that mass grave east of the city. The feng shui seems pretty good.”
“Hah. You think good feng shui will get you a good next life?”
“I don’t want another life. I’ll haunt you even as a ghost, entwining myself with you night after night until death do us part!”
Later, at the pinnacle of power, he considered making me his scapegoat, while I considered killing the father and keeping the son.
But in the end… neither of us could bring ourselves to do it.
