Male lead’s POV: Rekindled romance
Female lead’s POV: Haunted by a ghost she cannot defeat, no matter how hard she tries
Falsely aloof, secretly yandere older brother x younger sister who has been thoroughly taken
Yulan was the most prized courtesan at Jiangnan’s most renowned establishment. Her first-night auction drew a crowd that filled the streets.
But a wealthy young nobleman passing through on his way back to the capital bought her for a fortune.
She had no parents and no memories, so she knelt before him. “My lord, Yulan has nowhere to go. Please let me stay by your side and serve you.”
The man wore a dark cloak and coughed until the veins on the back of his hand stood out. “If you don’t want to stay, you can leave whenever you like.”
She gazed at him: tall and graceful, cool and noble, like a god descended from the heavens in a storybook.
Why would she leave such a fine gentleman?
It was just that his health was very poor.
He was cold even in the fifth month, and called her to warm his bed;
He found his medicine too bitter, so she had to feed it to him with candied fruit in her mouth;
He was troubled by nightmares late at night... and called her name when he awoke.
They grew closer and closer. He could hardly bear to be without her. If she disappeared for even half a moment, his expression turned dark and suspicious.
As time went on, many things quietly changed.
Until
She learned he had a younger sister who died in infancy, whose name and appearance were almost identical to hers.
Only then did she suddenly realize that his affection was never meant for her. It stemmed from an unspeakable taboo.
She tried to escape in the dead of night, but failed.
Later, after he dragged her back to bed, those hands, their veins standing out, traced every inch of her.
The gentleman was no longer cool and aloof. His heartbeat raced. “I hear Yulan has been telling everyone that I’m in poor health?”
She struggled desperately to get away, but he clamped her wrist in an iron grip. Beneath the candlelight, his handsome face became that of a demon.
“Then does little sister know who ruined this body of mine?”

Jiang Yingyue hated her.
He hated her for feeding him poison and leaving him behind just when he thought they were most in love.
Since then, he had suffered nightmares every night, his heart burning with rage.
But four years later, she appeared before him again, as unfamiliar as if she had forgotten everything between them. Only her voice was still as soft and innocent as before.
“Your servant is willing to serve you. I will belong to you for the rest of my life.”
Yulan, I already gave you a chance.
I’ll let the past go.
Don’t think of running away again.
