After Rebirth, the Mad, Powerful Official Can No Longer Hide His Gentle Act

Jiang Wu had died once before.

In her previous life, her fiance and her closest friend had joined forces to deceive her. They made her believe her husband was a sinister, treacherous man, so she schemed against him and caused his death.

Only as she lay dying did she see the truth: from beginning to end, she was the one who had been manipulated and used.

Heaven had shown mercy and granted her another chance at life.

In this life, Jiang Wu only wanted to be a virtuous, devoted wife to her gentle, refined husband.

She had a wicked servant beaten to death, and her husband praised her with a smile. "You did the right thing, my lady. I’ll help you get justice."

She killed her enemy with her own hands, and her husband secretly passed her a knife. "The wicked deserve to die."

Jiang Wu thought this was the understanding they shared as husband and wife.

Until one night, she saw with her own eyes as her husband, hands covered in blood, smiled and snapped an enemy’s neck.

It turned out the man she had married was no kind and noble gentleman.

He was a madman and a fanatic, skilled at hiding his true nature!

Jiang Wu wanted to run, but her husband, dressed in white and as immaculate as dust, walked toward her over a mountain of corpses and gave a mocking laugh.

"A Wu, the whole world is a net, and all living things are bait. You can’t escape."

Jiang Wu was utterly disheartened.

That night, the man leaned over her and kissed away the tears at the corners of her eyes, his voice tender and his manner still gentle and refined.

"Don’t cry."

"You like a gentle man? Then I’ll learn to be one."

"But the more you cry, the more excited I get!"
