Chi Zhiyu is the illegitimate daughter General Gu brought back to the capital, and she is truly insane.
She fell in love with her own older brother. Even after he died, she married his memorial tablet, making General Gu so angry he was bedridden for three days.
The eldest son of the Gu family, Gu Hesheng, was just like his name. Everyone said he was a crane who had descended to the mortal world to undergo tribulation. His features were refined, and an air of immortal nobility surrounded him.
Chi Zhiyu fell for him at first sight. With the heart of a lovestruck young woman, she eagerly confessed her feelings to him.
Gu Hesheng looked at her coldly for a long while. "No wonder you're a country bumpkin. You're utterly shameless."
After he died, Chi Zhiyu put his memorial tablet in her bedroom, facing the red bed. Beneath her was a male courtesan who looked almost exactly like him.
Chi Zhiyu seethed inwardly: He thought she was vulgar? Then she'd make Gu Hesheng watch as she humiliated this man.
-
Gu Hesheng was reborn. Looking in a mirror, he saw the face of this body.
It looked almost exactly like his own, except for the wanton look in its eyes. He would never show such an expression, like a male courtesan from the Changchun Courtyard who served his clients.
Then he looked up and saw his own memorial tablet.
Gu Hesheng: "..."
He had underestimated just how shameless his little sister could be.
-
Gu Hesheng tried to escape, but each time he was caught and dragged back beneath the bed curtains, where she humiliated him even more cruelly.
The red curtains billowed. He endured the shame in silence, so overwhelmed he could not speak. His pale skin trembled at the slightest touch, his beauty on full display.
But Chi Zhiyu was starting to get bored. She picked up a handkerchief and wiped her hands, then looked at him. "Forget it. You can go. I have to observe mourning for my brother."
She said lightly, "He's as pure as a crane, while you're no better than weeds. I really do prefer my brother."
Gu Hesheng suddenly clenched the embroidered mandarin ducks on the soft pillow.
