Lan Yingen, the spoiled young master of the Lan family, relied on his family’s status to live however he pleased. He always got his way and never cared what anyone else thought.
Then one day, he discovered that he was the fake young master who had been switched at birth.
His father said, “Yingen, we won’t kick you out, but you need to change your temper.”
His eldest brother said, “En’en, I’ll still treat you like my own little brother. But Chen Mo just came back and has nothing, so you need to give way to him.”
The real young master smiled. “I don’t mind you staying. We can still be brothers from now on.”
His former drinking buddies turned on him. “You’re not a young master anymore. Do you still dare to stand up for that bastard child?”
Lan Yingen sneered and left without looking back.
One day, two days...
Little by little, everyone began to panic. They tried all sorts of ways to force him to come back.
How long could a pampered young master, accustomed to a life of luxury, last out there?
Everyone waited for him to lower his head, apologize, and return as a gentle, submissive Lan Yingen.
But not long after...
At a banquet, Lan Yingen arrived with a man. They were intimate, and he looked even more radiant than before.
That man had recently emerged in the business world, sweeping aside all competitors. His background was mysterious, his assets immense, and he had more gold, silver, and jewels than anyone could count.
No one knew how Lan Yingen had met him.
Only Lan Yingen knew how cold the arm he was holding really was.
Not like a living person’s.
Attacker's perspective:
A mighty evil ghost was abandoned by his wife, who tricked him into entering a jade pendant and sealed him inside with a talisman.
In the first year, the evil ghost thought:
He said he’d let me out soon.
He must have his reasons. I’ll wait for him.
In the fifth year:
I miss him so much. Why hasn’t he come for me?
Has my En’en gotten thinner or fatter lately? Is he afraid of the cold when he sleeps alone?
In the tenth year:
If I get out and find he has a new lover,
I’ll hack that adulterer to pieces and grind his bones to dust.
In the thousandth year:
He finally came for me.
.
After accidentally shattering the jade pendant he had worn close to him since childhood, Lan Yingen saw thick black threads coiling around his body. He collapsed to the floor and scrambled back in terror. “Wh-what is this?”
The evil ghost bent down from midair, a sinister smile playing on his lips as he murmured, “Wife...”
“From now on... we’ll never be apart again.”
A spoiled, cold beauty who has a young master’s fate despite not being the real young master × a gloomy evil ghost who is furious after being dumped one-sidedly for a thousand years
