Shen Mingzhu is the daughter of a great immortal clan, an inconspicuous beauty of a vase beside her exceptionally gifted older sister.
The only thing people envy her for is her handsome, promising fiance.
When Xu Duan first introduced her, he was gentle as water. Beneath his vows of eternal love, she smiled, happy and shy.
Amid the envious gazes of everyone, only one person let out a soft scoff, mocking her with undisguised disdain.
Xie Wuyu, Xu Duan's friend, held a high position in an orthodox sect despite being a demon. Arrogant, cold-blooded, and haughty, he never gave anyone so much as a kind look.
By chance, a man like him witnessed her fiance sharing an intimate tryst with someone else
Xie Wuyu watched the scene with her, relishing the spectacle and ignoring her humiliation. He slowly drew near, his voice carrying the bewitching allure unique to demons. "How about I help you give him a taste of his own medicine?"
Shen Mingzhu never imagined that one day he would grip her by the neck and pin her against the door.
Inside the room, steam filled the air as their tangled breaths grew ragged. Her fiance's heartfelt confession came through the door with startling clarity.
The man bit her lip and asked with a wicked smile, "Why aren't you answering him?"
When he first saw Shen Mingzhu, she was nestled in someone else's arms, smiling, radiant and shy. At the time, he found the sight unbearably irritating.
When she first saw Xie Wuyu, one glance was enough for her to know she had found a more suitable blade.
[Scene]
The day her schemes were exposed, Shen Mingzhu prepared to break things off for good. Instead, someone took her hand and pressed it against a furry beast's ear. The man's voice was alluring as he said, "Since you played with me, you might as well see it through."
Shen Mingzhu: "?"
