In his previous life, Chi Xiaohuai was used by someone he loved and trusted. He was cast out of the immortal sect, shunned by the cultivation clans, and became a demon lord who ruled over one corner of the realm. In the end, he was hunted down. Every bit of it was because of his dear senior brother, Ling Wuchen.
Fortunately, Heaven gave him a chance to be reborn, though not in his own body. In this life, Chi Xiaohuai takes the name Huai Chiyu, and everything he does is for revenge.
When Huai Chiyu sees the Chi Xiaohuai of this world, he can only think how foolish his former self was. He'd treated Chi Xiaohuai with indifference, and yet this time around, Chi Xiaohuai doesn't seem to like Ling Wuchen. But in his previous life, he clearly did like Ling Wuchen. Huai Chiyu can't make sense of it, and doesn't have the time to figure it out. All he can think about is how to get revenge.
Until one day, Chi Xiaohuai gets utterly drunk and blocks Huai Chiyu at the door. His cheeks are flushed, his eyes red-rimmed. "Junior Brother Huai... I... I think I might like you."
"Huh? You... you... like me? This..." Am I really that full of myself? Huai Chiyu can't take it in. Seeing his reaction, Chi Xiaohuai's heart sinks to the bottom of a cliff, and tears spill from his eyes. Grabbing Huai Chiyu by the wrist, he asks, "Junior Brother, could you really not like me, even a little?" His voice trembling with tears leaves Huai Chiyu at a loss, so he says nothing and simply falls silent.
"Junior Brother... Big brother, say something!" Chi Xiaohuai stares at Huai Chiyu with red eyes. When he gets no answer, he seems to make up his mind. He grabs Huai Chiyu's clothes and kisses him. Huai Chiyu freezes for three seconds before trying to fight back, but Chi Xiaohuai was prepared and had already put a binding talisman on him. The young man's kiss is clumsy and haphazard, their lips bumping against each other. His eyes are squeezed shut, whether from fear or shyness, his lashes trembling as tears slide down from the corners of his eyes. Somehow, Huai Chiyu's heart softens. He sighs inwardly and stops resisting.
"No one understands you better than I do. I know every thought in your heart, because I am you."
"No, you still don't understand me well enough. Otherwise, how could you not see that I like you?"
You are the long-awaited rain upon my parched earth.
