The husband’s regret comes too late!
Early on: silent and enduring × deeply devoted and stubborn
Later on: cold and distant × deeply devoted and obsessive
Li Zimu loved Xi Li in silence. He thought this love could last a long time, and that if he played the substitute long enough, one day he would finally become the real one…
But he never expected the original to come back one day, meaning it was time for the substitute to step aside.
But when he really was about to give up his place, Xi Li regretted it.
…
All he got in return was Li Zimu’s death certificate.
At that moment, Xi Li went mad.
Everyone said Xi Li had lost his mind, searching the world in a frenzy for a dead man.
Li Zimu’s name seemed to become taboo for everyone.
One summer, five years later, fate brought them together again. One ran, the other chased.
Li Zimu: “I’m not Li Zimu.”
Xi Li: “I don’t care if it’s only a name.”
Li Zimu: “Then I don’t like you.”
Xi Li: “It’s enough that I like you.”
Li Zimu: “I like someone else.”
Xi Li: “Then I’m willing to be his substitute.”
Unlike before, this time the substitute, Xi Li, successfully stole the throne.
