Because her days were dreary and oppressive, and the love-insect curse inside her was acting up, Qian Li developed severe paranoia.
Her symptoms were especially obvious around her husband, Ye Changjue. They had married to unite the Immortal Domain and the demon clan, with little affection between them.
She was always convinced he had an old flame and that he was treating her as a substitute. She went to great lengths to trick him into writing a divorce agreement, then spoke with such cruelty that she seemed to mean they would never see each other again.
Ye Changjue was nearly driven to exhaustion by her suspicions. He was just short of worshipping her like an ancestor. He sneered, "I suggest you think carefully about the past."
Seeing the flames gathering at his fingertips, threatening to burn the divorce agreement, she promptly did as he said.
Then...
Memories surged back, and she realized that she was the one who had loved her old flame with blazing passion. She was the villain, while Ye Changjue was the poor substitute?
Qian Li: ...
After much inner turmoil, she stubbornly insisted, "Let's leave the past alone. Things have come to this, so we might as well part on good terms."
A cool smile touched Ye Changjue's eyes. "Since we were husband and wife, how about I find your old sweetheart for you?"
In her eyes, he had always been cold and unfeeling. There was no way he was being kind for no reason; he must be plotting something. Feeling guilty, she refused. "That doesn't seem right."
Ye Changjue pretended not to hear. He forcibly took her hand and used his reverse scale to cut open his chest, making her take out her old lover's heart and throw it away. After stirring her feelings, he forced her to promise to forget the old lover and start loving him...
Through all these villainous deeds, he showed her through his actions that there was no need to look for an old flame. Even if she found that person, it would still be him.
Premise: Keep your passion alive
