Yan Xi has been receiving harassing letters lately, and everyone around him is a suspect.
He has no choice but to turn to the only person he trusts: He Tingshu, his fiance's best friend.
Yes, he's engaged, but he's very hesitant about getting married.
He Tingshu is a famously aloof beauty, admired near and far. Everyone calls him a refined gentleman who always acts with integrity.
Sure enough, as long as He Tingshu is by his side, everything is peaceful.
Just as Yan Xi breathes a sigh of relief, his gravely ill mother's plea makes him reconsider registering his marriage with his fiance.
That very day, he receives another letter, its writing twisted and crazed.
[If you get married, I'll kill him!]
He Tingshu's hand is wrapped in bloodstained gauze, yet his handsome face still wears a warm smile.
"It's all right. It was just an accident. Don't worry." His long fingers pause politely in front of Yan Xi's tear-streaked eye. In the end, he sighs and offers him a handkerchief.
Yan Xi suddenly has a bold idea: register his marriage with He Tingshu and fulfill his mother's wish.
After they marry, the shadows of the past seem to lift. Their feelings quietly change, and Yan Xi and He Tingshu become a real married couple.
Until one sunny afternoon, in a moment of passion, Yan Xi knocks a notebook off the table.
Several familiar scraps of paper, covered in twisted handwriting, fall out.
[You have to be mine!]
[Content warnings]
* The top is not a homewrecker, but he is obsessive and twisted, with seriously warped values.
* A melodramatic love triangle. The bottom and his ex truly loved each other.
* The title and blurb may still change. I just want to write a melodramatic story where the bottom switches partners (lights cigarette).
