Golden Phoenix (Mountain Village Town)

[Ruthless, dazzling golden phoenix × earnest, devoted corpse carrier with a disfiguring birthmark]

Liu Pingsheng found a tree sparrow in a graveyard.

Its feathers were falling out, and it was so hungry it had grown terribly thin. It looked pitiful.

Liu Pingsheng carried the sparrow home and raised it, holding it close to his chest and tucking it under the covers. He warmed it by the fire in winter and fanned it in summer, even biting his finger to feed it his blood.

Until the sparrow became a golden phoenix, burst through the door, and flew into the blue sky.

The golden phoenix flew and flew.

Liu Pingsheng chased and chased.

As he chased, Liu Pingsheng called out:

"Fly, fly higher. Whatever you do, don't come back. Never come back again!"

Liu Pingsheng sent the golden phoenix away with his own hands, yet kept hoping it would return to look at him just once.

He hoped and hoped.

Hoped and hoped.

At last, the golden phoenix flew back to his side.

But this time, when it returned,

the golden phoenix gnawed at his flesh and drank all his blood. It pecked his bones to pieces, then threw his heart on the ground and trampled it again and again.

Note:

1. A story about repaying kindness with betrayal. The female lead is no good person, so don't expect her to behave morally. She'll stop at nothing to achieve her goals and soar upward.

2. The female lead is relatively innocent at first because of her circumstances, and suffers because of her background. Later, she awakens to her selfish, cold nature. Her limp will be cured.

3. The female lead is not a virgin, while the male lead is. She will get involved with other men, and later have an official fiance who is rich, handsome, and powerful.

4. A story about tormenting an insecure, good man, physically and emotionally. Unlike the male leads in my previous works, he won't humbly let her go. This includes him pestering her after she dumps him.

5. No pregnancy or childbirth.

6. The early plot has some similarities to The Blind Carpenter at the Village Entrance, so it makes a perfect substitute. Later, the stories are completely different. The male lead follows her to the city, where a large portion of the story takes place. If you find the early part repetitive, feel free to read selectively.

7. Set in an alternate modern world, with some fictional social rules.

8. I like tormenting men, but I don't hate men. This is a romance, not a wish-fulfillment story devoted purely to torturing the male lead. The female lead will have feelings for him, and later they will both pursue each other and dote on him. If you want a female lead who is heartless and only torments the male lead, this may not be for you.

9. Around 200,000 words, happy ending.
