Shen Huaiyu always remembered that day.
His older brother was sentenced and sent to prison, his father abandoned them, and his mother suddenly died of a cerebral hemorrhage.
Dressed in mourning clothes, he stood beneath a black umbrella and looked up at the impenetrable storm clouds. He gave a quiet laugh.
He swore he would drag every bastard hiding in the gutter out into the open. Even if he were torn to pieces, he would make them fall into the deepest hell.

Gu Chengyue thought he had taken Shen Huaiyu by force.
He never expected that on the day he fell completely in love with Shen Huaiyu, Shen Huaiyu would personally send him to the executioner's block.
All that talk of taking him by force had been an elaborate trap, carefully designed to get close to him.
But even at the very end, Gu Chengyue stubbornly wanted an answer.
“Shen Huaiyu, what about you is even real?”
Through the visitation window, Shen Huaiyu answered a different question, speaking softly. “Gu Chengyue, you once said I was your venomous love spell. I think I can finally give you my answer.”
He enunciated each word, each one cutting to the heart: “But all I want is your life.”
So, will you give it to me?
Gu Chengyue fell silent.
Later, his words came true.
P.S.
1. Happy ending, one-on-one romance, revenge in an alternate setting (a real happy ending, truly).
2. Originally titled Love-Bound Gu, a title I hold dear.
3. Shares a setting with Assistant Xie next door, but the characters' motivations may not completely align. This novel's characterization takes precedence.
4. After careful consideration, the setting has been changed to [Urban Supernatural].
Theme: Cherish life
