Everyone knows that Lu Wanshuang of the Immortal Sect is a lunatic who has spent a century searching for her dead husband's reincarnation.
Xie Shiqing had heard plenty of stories about her, but never paid them any mind.
What did Lu Wanshuang have to do with him?
He never expected that before long, the head of the Xie family, his own uncle, would have him bound hand and foot and sent to the Immortal Sect as a live-in son-in-law.
The soul lamp had revealed that he was the reincarnation of Lu Wanshuang's dead husband.
The first time he met Lu Wanshuang, the lunatic lifted his chin with a teasing touch and studied him for a long while, her tone languid.
"Your face isn't as handsome as it used to be, but it'll do."
Then she told her maid, "Get him cleaned up and send him to my bed."
He resented it all, and loathed Lu Wanshuang even more. What he hated most was the way she would look at someone else whenever she gazed at him.
But after he truly accepted his identity as her dead husband, he fell deeply in love with her.
And then she stood beside another man and shrugged, unconcerned.
"Sorry, I mistook you for someone else."
Xie Shiqing stood rooted to the spot, staring after Lu Wanshuang and the man as they walked away. He clenched his fists in silence, his gaze dark and sinister.
Fine. Lu Wanshuang, just you wait.

Before Lu Wanshuang became the madwoman everyone cursed, she had once been innocent and carefree.
After she was injured by chance and stranded in the mortal realm, a swordsman saved her. She fell for his looks at first sight.
So she disguised herself as a mortal and followed the swordsman across the land, traveling thousands of miles and seeing its mountains and rivers.
Unfortunately, Lu Wanshuang was no mortal, and the swordsman was no swordsman.
Before he died in her arms, he was still trying to wipe away her tears.
He said, "Wanwan, don't cry."
Then he vanished, leaving not even a scrap of his clothes behind.
