Qing Ci waited for Jun Lin in the Ninth Heaven for five hundred years.
Well, saying she "waited" isn't quite accurate. After all, she was his disciple, and there was nowhere she could run.
In short, she was the most well-behaved and obedient sort, an invisible presence who always sat in a corner and never competed for anything.
She thought that if she behaved well enough, one day her patience would be rewarded.
But what happened?
He married her only because she looked like the woman he had loved, who had been dead for six hundred years.
Fine.
She accepted it.
Jun Lin did everything he could to bring his beloved back to life.
After the wedding, watching him pine for her, Qing Ci couldn't hold back her anger.
"Divine Lord, you might as well take my immortal bones. They were hers to begin with, anyway."
Only after she said this did Jun Lin finally turn his head toward her.
That was the most serious look he had ever given her.
And the last.
[Reading Guide]
1. The heroine is conflicted, love-struck, and deeply obsessive. She is not a perfect character. If that's not for you, please don't read!
2. Both leads are virgins; the male lead is powerful and the female lead is weak; tragic ending; replacement trope; the male lead chases his wife after losing her
3. A scum master who's a hopeless romantic vs. a hopelessly love-struck disciple
4. This is a fictional setting, so no need to worry about historical accuracy. A mountain of headcanon
5. The whole novel is complete and won't be abandoned. This was written on a whim, so please don't bash it if it's not your thing
6. If you happen to enjoy it, I'll be honored~
