I am Ye Guguang, utterly wicked, with a mountain of sins to my name.
In my previous life, I lived in splendor but died a pathetic death. At the Bridge of Helplessness, when Lady Meng asked if I had repented, I regretted only that I hadn't been ruthless enough, hadn't struck fast enough, hadn't killed every last righteous fool while I still had the chance.
I regretted even more that, in my youth, I had shown kindness for a moment and saved Ning Zhao's life. Who could have guessed that she would later join the righteous and rise through the ranks, until she finally killed me to earn her merit!
If I am reborn, you will be the first one I kill, Ning Zhao!!!

Blurb 2.
In my previous life, Ning Zhao killed me.
I hated her, and thought she must have hated me just as much.
But I never knew that after my death, she was the one who cleared the snow from my doorstep, the one who built me a cenotaph, the one who came to my grave year after year beneath an oil-paper umbrella, carefully wiping the dust from my gravestone.
I never knew that after I died, she was also the one who spent sleepless nights dreaming of me, her tears soaking the sleeves of her blue robe.
Drunk, I dream of clouds on Mount Wu; awake, my tears fall into the Xiang River. O beauty, my beauty, I know not how the evening rain became morning clouds.
After a night of longing, plum blossoms bloom; when one suddenly appears at the window, I mistake it for you.
