Chu He has a dream that she's the heroine of an old-school tragic romance.
She was born poor, but studied diligently. At last, at eighteen, she worked hard and earned excellent grades, getting into the university of her dreams. It should have been the beginning of a new life.
But then she met the male lead, Ji Zhenqing.
He was born into a wealthy and powerful family, but he was nothing less than a lunatic. After falling in love with Chu He, he treated her as his private property. If she so much as looked at someone else, he would fly into a rage.
To treat Ji Zhenqing's illness, the Ji family used Chu He's education as leverage and forced her to become his girlfriend. Resentful, Chu He took all her anger out on Ji Zhenqing. After repeatedly resisting and failing to escape, Chu He finally broke down completely and chose to end her life.
After she died, the male lead also took his own life at her grave.
Chu He: Fucking bastard.
Awakened, Chu He looks at the male lead before her. The coldness fades from her face, and she gives him a gentle smile.
The male lead's dark pupils tremble. He murmurs obsessively, "Hehe..."
*
After six months of pretending, Ji Zhenqing is finally ready to spring his trap.
Watching Chu He cry sadly in front of him, Ji Zhenqing lays out his entire plan and promises to take her away.
That night at the airport, Chu He makes a phone call, and the Ji family arrives.
Chu He breaks free of the male lead, takes the money she's saved over the past year, destroys every trace of her identity, and boards a plane abroad alone.
Looking at the money Ji Zhenqing gave her over the past year and the ten million the Ji family transferred into her account, Chu He curls her lips. She'll consider it compensation for her emotional distress.
*
She never expected the plane to crash, and when she opens her eyes again, she's back at the Ji residence, one year earlier.
Chu He looks at the man in front of her, and a new plan takes shape. If she can't get away from this mad dog, then she'll turn him into her obedient pet.
Content warning: The male lead will eventually regain all his memories. This is not a healing story, and the heroine may not love him until the extra chapters.
The male lead suffers.
She acts in the beginning, then trains him like a dog.
Theme: Love means helping each other become better people.
