On the Seventh Year After My Death, the Replacement-Romance Novel’s Hero Went Mad

[Widower fiction + fake siblings + love triangle drama + male lead angst + forced love]

Lin Lu wakes up one day and finds herself transported seven years into the future.

Pei Yizhou, who once depended on her and her alone, has become a rising star in the tech industry and is said to have had a tragic, beautiful love story that everyone regrets.

She was the heroine.

Everyone tries to make her believe how deeply they loved each other back then.

“Pei Yizhou went out in the rain with a fever to find you because he wanted to be with you.”

“After you got together, he had to change trains several times every day just to see you.”

“You were glued to each other every day.”

“Your proposal was so romantic.”

“After you disappeared, Pei Yizhou had a breakdown and nearly killed himself.”

But Lin Lu remembers none of it and doesn't believe any of it.

They were clearly just siblings with a pure, innocent bond!

-

In the seventh year after Lin Lu's disappearance, Pei Yizhou sees her even more often, when he's drunk and in his dreams.

But each time, he can only watch helplessly as she disappears, leaving him utterly devastated.

Except this time.

He thinks he must be dying. How else could he hold his beloved, who has already passed away, in his arms again?

Then the person in his arms hesitantly calls him “brother.”

Having the person he loves dearly back at his side should be cause for joy, but Lin Lu has completely forgotten the days when she and Pei Yizhou were in love. She treats him like family, like a brother, anything but a lover.

To keep the love he has lost and regained by his side, he has no choice but to swallow his resentment and play the part of Lin Lu's good big brother.

That is, unless another bastard barges into their lives.

“Lulu, don't leave me again.”
