[Both are reborn]
In her previous life,
Jian Xunci spent all of her youth on Tang Muze.
He psychologically manipulated her, wearing her down again and again through their toxic entanglement. The long-term exploitation by her parents and friends also left her with multiple mental disorders.
Back then, she thought she had simply been born under an unlucky star.
For most of the rest of her life, she was in the hospital, sometimes lucid, sometimes trapped in delusions and hallucinations.
None of her old friends came to visit. Tang Muze had long since married and was nowhere to be found.
But there was one person Jian Xunci often saw at her side whenever she was lucid.
Yu Chao.
She sifted through fragments of memory and recalled only one time when she had gotten drunk and something had happened between them.
Could that brief encounter really have made Yu Chao, a superstar with a famous reputation, come visit her... for ten whole years?
-
Later, she heard that Yu Chao had died of a heart attack.
That lie haunted her for a long time. Yu Chao had told someone to say it as his final request.
The truth was that he had died saving her.
Jian Xunci, who might have lived a few seconds longer, gave up the ghost the instant she heard the truth.
-
Yu Chao never expected to be reborn either. He made up his mind.
This time, he would keep his distance from her and let go of his obsession.
He wouldn't follow her around anymore, and he wouldn't meet the same end again.
Then the girl walked toward him, one step at a time.
Her cool, slender body fell into his arms as she called his name in a drunken voice.
Again and again, he told himself that this woman was in love with someone else and only used him as an outlet.
He just wanted to lock up his belt!
The next day, the girl didn't glance at him with the same disgust as in their previous life, as if he were something unlucky she'd picked up.
Instead, she reached out and firmly clasped his hand.
Her eyes glistened with tears. "Yu Chao, live to be a hundred."
Yu Chao hesitated.
Was it guilt?
Only Jian Xunci herself knew.
In her previous life, the person she should have fallen in love with had been him all along.
