Lin Huan was reborn three times, but she couldn't escape a death sentence.
On her fourth time, she found herself in the same familiar house. The man who had killed her three times sat across from her, holding a chain. "Lin Huan, choose one. Go with your beloved Shen Huan, or stay here with me? Hmm?"
"I'll stay here with you." This time, Lin Huan didn't hesitate for a moment.
Only by staying with Jiang Yu would she be safe. She had no other choice. If she chose Shen Huan, Jiang Yu would catch her and bring her back anyway, and things would be even worse.
"Good girl." Jiang Yu seemed very pleased with her immediate answer. This time, he didn't put the chain on her.
One step closer to a successful revolution. Lin Huan was overjoyed. She'd thought she had the script in hand and that winning him over would be a breeze.
Until she realized that despite all her hard work, and all the tenderness she showed the male lead, his affection meter was going down instead of up.
"Can we stop messing around?"
The path to winning him over is long.
I willingly fall into your tender trap,
because I love you.
I willingly let you lock me up and keep me confined,
because I pity you.
But you forgot:
A rose has thorns.
But if it wants to survive,
it must hide them away.
You forgot, my rose.
You forgot the days we spent together,
and the three lifetimes you kept me confined.
To keep you from leaving me,
I learned to sheath my fangs.
I will make sure that in every life,
you can never escape my cage.
A calculating, possessive, suspicious male lead vs. a sunny, warmhearted, straightforward female lead
Warnings: No moral compass. The male lead is genuinely twisted, and the female lead isn't a good person either. Contains some blood and violence, so don't read if that's not your thing. Entirely fictional, no real-life inspiration.
Note: Don't scrutinize the historical setting too closely.
Theme: Life is as brilliant as a song
