The divine palace's red silk fades, and the golden threads never return.
"Have you ever been to Hanyunxiu? It's a place like heaven on earth."
"Are you cold?"
"I'll take care of your sister's medical expenses, whether or not you want to be with me."
On a pitch-black street, Gu An took Xiao Jin's cold hand and pulled him to his feet.
In his previous life, Xiao Jin received three years of care from Gu An, but always felt beneath her. He tricked her out of countless sums of money, then betrayed her secrets, leading to her death at the hands of her brother's scheme.
Xiao Jin had never imagined that the second young master of the Gu family, who could plot to have his own sister die in a car accident, would spare him.
In this life, he finally understood how Gu An had protected him. He no longer dared to hope for a love between equals. He owed her far too much.
He had no right to get close to such a wonderful girl again.
But what if? Just what if? If she turned back to look at him among the millions and chose him again, this time he would give her the deepest, most all-consuming love.
After coming of age, Xiao Jin asked to be sent to Hanyunxiu. He trained body and mind alike, enduring hardships beyond count.
Gu An heard from a friend that Hanyunxiu had gained a new, otherworldly beauty.
One distant glimpse was all it took for the whole circle to spread the word: a slender waist, skin like snow, as lovely as a rainbow gown, with a dream of passion worth more than a fortune.
At a social gathering, Gu An finally saw him.
He was nothing like the rumors said. His eyes seemed dazed, as if he had committed some terrible mistake, and his whole body trembled uncontrollably.
She had seen plenty of beauties, but one glance at him was enough to make her remember him forever.
The most heartless of them all. She had searched for him for three years, and he still wouldn't let her see him.
You can't force a melon to be sweet. Since he didn't want to see her, Gu An turned to leave, but a pair of pale, delicate hands trembled as they caught her.
"Don't go, An'an. No... Miss Gu."
"Please give me a chance. Three years ago, I was blind to your feelings and turned you down."
"Back then, you asked why I rejected you, and whether it was because I didn't have the courage to be loved."
"This time, I think I've finally gathered enough courage."
Content warning: The male and female leads are both virgins in both lives.
