01
The name Chu Jinzhao hears most often in the sect is You Xunchun.
He is exceptionally gifted, the pride of heaven, and a cultivation prodigy rarely seen in ten thousand years.
No one could dislike a young man like that.
Chu Jinzhao doesn't, either.
She has wondered what it would be like to see You Xunchun again.
Would he succeed the sect as its leader? Or ascend to godhood?
But it would never be like this.
Covered in blood, his clothes in tatters, like a broken doll.
The heavenly tribulation strikes down, hitting Chu Jinzhao squarely.
Her vision goes black, and she faints.
When she opens her eyes again, she finds herself ten years in the past.
You Xunchun is just as she remembers him: lofty and graceful.
Tears blur Chu Jinzhao's vision.
She vows never to let You Xunchun become that way again.

One night, when all is silent,
Chu Jinzhao puts on a mask and sneaks into You Xunchun's bedroom. Putting on a mysterious air, she says, "I am a celestial being, and we are fated to meet. I have come to grant you one..."
Before she can finish, You Xunchun smashes the mask covering her face. His phoenix eyes narrow, his voice amused. "I had no idea you'd ascended, Junior Sister."
Chu Jinzhao answers through gritted teeth, "Yesterday..."
You Xunchun drawls, "And the first thing you did after ascending was sneak into your senior brother's bedroom at night?"
In a fit of desperation, Chu Jinzhao gives up pretending and blurts out, "I've been in love with you for ages, Senior Brother. I saw that no one was around tonight, so I came to play the part of a flower thief."
You Xunchun: "..."

You Xunchun grabs her by the collar, about to throw her out.
At the last moment, Chu Jinzhao says, "You can't throw me out! I transmigrated here from the future, and we got married there!"
You Xunchun pauses. "Oh?"
He clearly doesn't believe her.
Chu Jinzhao shuts her eyes and rattles off at top speed: "You have a mole on your inner thigh, and when we sleep together, you like to..."
You Xunchun clamps a hand over Chu Jinzhao's mouth, his voice fierce. "Shut up!"
No one notices the blush creeping over his face and the tips of his ears.
