"Has the Crown Princess admitted his mistake?"
"Your Highness, the Crown Princess... He's gone to the Grand Tutor to complain that you're dating before marriage! The Grand Tutor's coming with a cane! Run!"
*
In his previous life, the rumor in Shengjing was that Gu Xiao loved Fu Huaijin to death. To marry the Sixth Prince, he gave up his title to become his husband and spent his entire fortune helping him take the Eastern Palace.
Then, in the blink of an eye, it became a joke: the Sixth Prince had turned around and fallen for a beautiful male courtesan, whom he was now offering a fortune to marry.
Gu Xiao was left with nothing and thrown out.
An old enemy came after him, and he died on the street on a snowy night.
*
Gu Xiao was reborn.
The good news: he'd been disconnected from the "Miserable Bottom Mission System"!
The bad news: he, the dignified heir of a duke's estate, handsome, suave, and dashing, had spent his previous life chasing after someone shamelessly, crying, throwing tantrums, threatening suicide, and doing everything possible to curry favor and win affection... His good name was in tatters!
Back in his youth, before any of it had happened, Gu Xiao had two plans:
First, he'd stop before it was too late. This time, he'd be a decent person, enjoy his vast wealth, and live a carefree life.
Second, he'd repay every grudge. He'd make that bastard Fu unfit to be called a person!
*
Fu Huaijin was reborn too.
The pampered Sixth Prince woke in the middle of the night, grief etched across his face, as if he'd lost his most precious treasure.
It was as if a seal in his mind had broken. He heard a voice say, "Mission complete. The Scum Top System has been disconnected."
He awoke from a long dream and felt his heart being torn apart.
He seemed to be standing once again amid the bitterly cold snow, with only one name in his heart and mind:
Gu Xiao.
*
This time, the rumor in Shengjing was that the heir, Gu Xiao, couldn't stand the Sixth Prince and would do anything to make life difficult for him.
There was also a rumor that the Sixth Prince was completely devoted to him, willing to jump into any trap to make Gu Xiao happy!
Fu Huaijin went along with it all. Whenever Gu Xiao dug a pit, he jumped right in, without hesitation.
Gu Xiao called it quits once he felt they'd settled their debts.
But Fu Huaijin said, "I owe you a lifetime, so I should spend a lifetime repaying you. I can't give you a single day less."
