In her previous life, Jing Sui met Wen Huai, the nephew of Wen Chi Li, and the two eventually married. She thought they could live happily ever after, but in the end, he betrayed her, and the Wen family tormented her until she died.
Reborn into a new life, Jing Sui decides to live for herself and get revenge on the scumbags along the way. Just as everything is ready, Wen Chi Li appears out of nowhere.
The Wen family's third young master, Wen Chi Li, is renowned in the capital as a refined gentleman, elegant and courteous. Only Jing Sui knows that he is a demon, ruthless beyond compare.
But what shocks her most is what happens after she dies. He clutches her still-warm corpse and desperately kisses her lips. His usually immaculate clothes are disheveled as he roars, "Sui Sui, come back... Come back..."
Later, he spends three days and nights by her grave without sleep. His eyes are utterly lifeless, and he looks like a walking corpse.
When she learns how obsessively he feels about her, she isn't happy. In either her previous life or this one, Jing Sui wants to stay as far away from him as possible.
But when she meets him again, Jing Sui instinctively greets him, "Hello, Uncle."
He merely furrows his brows slightly, seeming impatient, but Jing Sui sees a glimmer of amusement in his unfathomable eyes.
Later, he murmurs in her ear again and again, coaxing her softly: "Sui Sui, be good. Don't be afraid of me."
"Be good. What do you call me?"
Jing Sui swallows nervously and calls him, "U-Uncle..."
The famously aloof Wen Chi Li lets out a low laugh.
