Lou Mingyan and the great villain Zhan Xiucheng had been enemies for ages.
He ruined three of her marriages, and finally angered her to death.
When she opened her eyes again, Lou Mingyan had returned to a thousand years in the past, where she had become the great villain's unforgettable first love.
Rumor had it that Zhan Xiucheng had loved this dearly departed beauty with all his heart, even betraying the immortal sect and falling into the demonic path for her.
Lou Mingyan's eyes immediately lit up.
When they met at the mountain gate, Zhan Xiucheng deliberately stopped her from entering.
Was that any way to treat the woman he loved?
Lou Mingyan suddenly understood: He had a crush on her and wanted to get her attention.
When Zhan Xiucheng was falsely accused, she kindly stepped in front of him to defend him.
But all she got in return was his distant, icy response: "Miss Lou, please show some self-respect."
Lou Mingyan tried to convince herself: ?? He must be shy!
Just when she'd nearly brainwashed herself into believing it, she finally discovered that the villain's first love was actually someone else.
...The sky was falling.
Lou Mingyan could finally take it no longer. Forget this mission to save the villain! To hell with it!
But she never expected that after helping the villain through the most miserable years of his life, she wouldn't receive his gratitude. Instead, she would find herself bound by a cold Immortal-Binding Rope.

Zhan Xiucheng had lived on the streets since childhood. He had experienced the world's cruelty, suffered deception and exploitation, and was ultimately kicked off a high platform by his own father, plummeting into the mud.
He had believed his whole life would be as worthless as grass, and that he was fated to endure others' slander.
Until someone stood in front of him.
The girl said firmly, "Zhan Xiucheng, you still have me. I believe you."
She saved his wavering heart from falling apart.
But after finding the person she truly loved, Lou Mingyan happily waved goodbye to him. "You're doing well now, so I'll head home!"
He lowered his eyes, hiding every emotion.
Only when the Immortal-Binding Rope wrapped around her did Lou Mingyan realize that the villain had already fallen to the dark side.
"Miss Lou, didn't you say you were going to save me? Why did you stop?" The boy who once begged her to stay so humbly had now become someone else entirely.
