Ringing Jade

In his previous life, Chu Yunfan was born into an illustrious family and was engaged to the junior sister he loved, Shang Fuyu. He should have been a favored child of heaven with a smooth life ahead of him, but he trusted the wrong person and could only watch helplessly as the green-tea senior brother Liang Xuezhong stole his fiancee away.

He thought his junior sister was cool and innocent, and that Liang Xuezhong must have schemed to seduce her, making her commit the mistake every woman in the world would make.

So in this life, Chu Yunfan planned every step carefully, always getting ahead of Liang Xuezhong and never letting his guard down. He successfully won the beloved Shang Fuyu back into his arms.

But that wasn't enough.

He wanted to expose the hypocritical facade of that shameless green tea, Liang Xuezhong, and make him taste the pain of being cruelly abandoned, just as Chu Yunfan had once been.

So he let the rebels poison both him and Liang Xuezhong with a deadly toxin, forcing Shang Fuyu to choose.

With their lives on the line, Liang Xuezhong's expression darkened, while Chu Yunfan was practically giddy.

He waited for Shang Fuyu to speak.

He thought Shang Fuyu would surely choose him this time.

Shang Fuyu did not disappoint. She smiled faintly and said, "I've never liked making meaningless choices."

"Let's be fair and just kill them both."

Theme: I have pitied Liang Xuezhong, yet still feel guilty toward Chu Yunfan.
