Lin Suining met someone.

He was as cold as frost and snow, and as radiant as the moon in the night sky. Such a solitary, aloof man was, unexpectedly, a calm madman. She watched him lower his sword, wipe the blood from his cheek without changing expression, then glance her way.

She thought it was just a chance encounter, but fate has never been reasonable. A birthday banquet and a marriage contract soon came between them.

Lin Suining refused him again and again. "My reputation is in tatters. I'm a spoiled wastrel..."

The haughty heir remained unruffled, meeting every move with a countermove, as though certain of victory. Whatever storms came, he could turn them all to nothing with a wave of his hand.

It was only when she admitted she had feelings for someone else that his expression darkened and his voice turned icy. What he said left the entire hall stunned.

"Just kill him."

Later, her elder brother was imprisoned and the Lin family fell into ruin. Lin Suining still agreed to the marriage.

Little did she know her husband would only grow more outrageous.

Xie Yixuan toppled his father and took charge of the marquis's estate, then even plotted to kill the emperor.

Terrified, Lin Suining backed away step by step, but he seized her. "What are you afraid of? Weren't you the one who said you had feelings for me? Shouldn't you like me no matter what I'm like?"

Overwhelmed, she endured torment day after day, left him a divorce agreement, and fled.

But just as she tried to elope with another man, he caught her.

"Is he really better than me?" Xie Yixuan pressed closer, rubbing her lips. "If you don't want to be a bird in a cage, how about I become a fish in your pond?"

"My heart is no stone; I have someone I adore, and hope to look upon you year after year."

Bright, spoiled, and clever heroine vs. cold, dark, and unhinged hero

Reading Guide:

1. Multiple characters are reborn, but the heroine is not.

2. This is a slow-burn story.

3. The hero is fairly normal at first, but he really does go mad later.

4. The hero loved the heroine in his previous life.

Yu Yin and a young man from the highest echelons of Beijing society shared a connection when they were young. No one else knew, and it would not resurface until many years later.

Shen Nanji was languid and carefree, distant and indifferent. Even his naturally affectionate eyes were cold.

She thought she had left an unforgettable impression on him, but when they met again, he stared at her for a long while, brows slightly furrowed, then asked in confusion, "Have we met?"

But Yu Yin was stubborn. She pursued him relentlessly for two years. Shen Nanji neither avoided her nor accepted her, simply watching as she acted out a one-woman show of love and heartbreak.

She thought he had never fallen for her.

Otherwise, why would he merely watch coldly as tears streamed down her face and ask, "Have you cried enough?"

Otherwise, why would he smile at her repeated confessions and say, "You have plenty of love. You don't need mine too."

After their final embrace, she really did leave and never appeared again. The usually unflappable Mr. Shen stared at the red exclamation mark on his screen, clutching his phone with trembling hands.

They met again at a reception. Beneath the glittering lights, she was laughing and drinking with another man.

Grinding his teeth, he walked over. "Miss Yu, you've already found someone new?"

After the reception, Yu Yin staggered out. In a haze, she bumped into someone and apologized repeatedly. But the man clung to her instead of moving away, then wrapped his arms around her waist.

"Shen Nanji, what are you doing?"

He pretended to be drunk and smiled. "Can't you tell? Throwing yourself into my arms."

Mist blurred her vision. She tried to dodge and escape his hold, but the person behind her grabbed her.

Shen Nanji's gaze swept over the flushed face in his arms. He lifted her chin, forcing her to look at herself in the mirror, and spoke in a soft, hoarse voice.

"I love you. Can you feel it now?"
