I Came to Dig Graves for My Four Childhood Friends

Mother wanted Chuchu to grow into a cultured, well-mannered young lady, but Chuchu turned out quite differently. In public, she seemed gentle and frail. In private, she wielded silver needles with graceful hands and stirred up trouble throughout the martial world.

The Jiangnan region was gentle and mild, but Qingzhou saw plenty of snow each winter. Every year, when the first snow fell, a few stories came with it.

At the Luo residence, she met Gu Su Limi. Though they bickered and tussled, there was also the innocent awkwardness of youth, like turning back to catch the scent of green plums.

On the coldest night of winter, Mo Shuyu arrived. He was the first person to tell Chuchu he liked her. His love was silent and steadfast, just as she had always imagined the best kind of love would be.

Then, on a snowy night with a charcoal fire burning, the young heir Ling Ye arrived from the capital. He was the dazzling young man she'd once seen in her youth, always frivolous and shameless. Chuchu disliked people with no manners, yet she was drawn to his freedom.

The older brother Mother brought home always wore a cold expression. Chuchu was constantly suspicious of him when they were together, but in the end, he fell for her and gave way time and again...

As time went on, their grudges became impossible to untangle, and Chuchu could no longer tell what she felt. So...

One pit per man. Lay them flat, bury them deep. Anyone who dares betray me can explain himself to the King of Hell. A woman's misfortune begins with taking pity on a man. Since not one of them has a pure heart, Chuchu resolves to dig graves for all her childhood friends, so they can learn from their mistakes and mend their ways!
