The Confession of a Heartbreaker
Six months after our wedding, my husband suddenly brings home a handsome man.
He's gorgeous, with eight-pack abs, and always looks at me with damp, innocent eyes. He seems completely harmless.
My husband tells me to take good care of him, so the handsome man starts relying on me.
The more he relies on me, the more I start dreaming about him at night.
In my dreams, he's spirited and brilliant, the darling of heaven. He loves me, and I love him too.
When I wake up, I'm filled with regret and shame.
My husband is the one I love! How could I possibly fall for someone else?
But the handsome man clings to me all day, cuddling up close and softly calling me "Star." His beautiful doe eyes make it impossible for me to say no. Oh no! I'm a real fickle, faithless woman after all!
My husband's reaction is strange too.
One night, my usually gentle husband suddenly holds me tight and whispers hoarsely in my ear:
"Yongyong, if you like Xiang Xu, we could bring him into the household as a concubine."
Me: "?????"
My husband: "But I have to be the principal husband. He'll have to call me big brother."
In the dim light, I don't notice my gentle husband's bloodshot eyes, brimming with hatred.
The Principal Wife's Monologue
Before we were married, I saw with my own eyes as Yongyong was set up and killed by her half-sister.
She swallowed hemlock and died coughing up blood.
Although this woman and I were betrothed, she was timid and weak. I watched her fall into the trap with cold indifference.
But something strange happened. That very night, after she died, someone brought her corpse back to life.
The new soul was so lively and spirited that even her bland appearance began to shine.
I fell in love with her without hesitation.
But in the third month of our marriage, a man suddenly came to our door.
That's when I learned that she was Jiang Zhaoxing, the third daughter of General Zhenyuan.
The man was the young lord of the Pingyang Marquis household, her childhood sweetheart. They had been married for two years and were deeply in love.
The young lord had activated a formation before the Buddha and offered up a fragment of his soul in exchange for Zhaoxing to be brought back to life in another body.
According to ancient tradition, only by consummating their relationship could they repair each other's souls. Otherwise, they'd both die.
Ha! What a ridiculous formation! What a ridiculous ex-husband!
You two claim to be devoted to each other forever, so what does that make me? Am I just unlucky?
Yongyong has forgotten her past, and now she loves me. The one who isn't loved is the third wheel!
But why?
Why does Yongyong smile at him so seductively?
Why do they cuddle and cling to each other right in front of me? Have they no shame?
They actually... actually had sex in broad daylight! Couldn't they wait until nightfall?
I hate Xiang Xu! I hate the way he acts coy and puts on a charming show in front of Star, seducing her! Tempting her!
That shameless lecher, I'll kill him someday!
The Fool's Monologue
During the Battle of Datong Pass, Star and Gu Huan were both captured.
Gu Huan was frail, so I chose to rescue her first.
But when I went back to save Star, I found she'd been given an incurable poison.
As she died, she looked at me with despair and hatred and didn't leave a single last word.
It broke my heart.
I offered myself as a sacrifice before the Buddha and activated the formation. At last, I brought Star back.
But when I found her, she was already married.
No matter! A real man can bend and stretch. As long as I can stay by Star's side, I'm willing to take the junior husband's place in this household.
Ha, Song Wenxi agreed, just as I expected.
I'll gradually bring back Star's memories and make him watch as she returns to my side for good.
But the scheming Song Wenxi deliberately settled me in the room next to theirs, so I have to hear their intimate business every night!
Do they really have to go at it so hard? Star is delicate. How can she endure being put through that kind of punishment?
Ha, it's fine!
It's! Fine!
It's!
Fine!
One day, I'll kill that bastard!
