Wen Jing: “Last night, Senior brother was improper towards me……”

His senior sister: “Nonsense! How can your senior brother possibly do that kind of thing? Don’t tell me you’ve long held those kind of intentions towards him, and unable to obtain what you wanted, you’re now framing him?”

Wen Jing: “There’s this evil brute, specializing in using his top-notch, exquisite looks and elegant disposition to fool people, and everyone is in the midst of danger while not even aware of it themselves.”

Jun YanZhi: “If it wasn’t for you, that evil brute would most likely still be struggling in pain and suffering.” <<less

An average, ordinary university student had his first life burned away in a painful death from a fire, causing him to transmigrate into a prince of another universe.

Life in the palace is inevitably difficult though, what with all the scheming enemies around him. This man’s only wish in this world is to be able to protect his “younger brother,” and for that, he’ll do anything–whether by hook or by crook–to ensure his brother’s safety and have him succeed the throne.

The man never once expected, though, that the person whom he swears to protect would be the one to stab him in the back. He got locked in a dungeon where he was tortured for three years. And when he was on the brink of death, his body was thrown away into the river.

When he wakes up, he finds himself in an eccentric and peaceful place, where everyone is suspiciously more than what they seem… <<less

From being a ward of a wealthy family to wandering without a home, he became acquainted with and fell in love with the eldest son of the Zheng family. However, he also faced betrayal and deceit from his lover, bearing the weight of countless rumors.

Most scions of prestigious families looked down on Chen Wengang. At the darkest moment of his life, Huo Niansheng, a playboy who had once mocked him, appeared before him and raised an eyebrow, “You used to be so aloof; how did you end up in such a sorry state?”

Chen Wengang was leaning against a graffiti-covered wall, a cigarette dangling between his fingers, and a half-grimace scar on his face. Huo Niansheng casually approached and borrowed a light, “If you’re truly homeless, why not come with me?”

Chen Wengang got into Huo Niansheng’s car.

Little did he know, that this decision would shape his entire life.

No one knew why the cunning Huo Niansheng was so persistent with an underground lover who was disfigured. He remained indifferent, not indulging in the extravagance of the nightlife.

Later, Huo Niansheng died in a cruise ship accident. In the farewell letter he left for Chen Wengang at the end of his life, he wrote, “I never knew if you truly loved me, and unfortunately, I may never find out in this lifetime.”

Afterward, Chen Wengang was reborn at the age of twenty.

He had not been disfigured yet, and there were many regrets that he could now rectify. Most importantly, he could give Huo Niansheng a second chance.

An Zhi Xia was born and immediately had her identity swapped out. She was harmed by the fake rich miss and her foster parents until no bones remained.

After drifting for a hundred years as a ghost, she watched with her own eyes as the fake rich miss assumed her identity to marry into a prestigious family, achieving success in both career and love. The fake rich miss also angered An Zhi Xia's birth parents to death, and left her four brothers either dead or disabled.

Upon returning to the 1970s when she was harmed, the hundred-year-old ghost An Zhi Xia decisively counterattacked. She acknowledged her birth parents, drove away the fake rich miss, and sent her foster parents to prison.

Did you think she wanted familial love?

No, she only wanted the villains to pay the price.

But things often go beyond one's expectations. An Zhi Xia's big brother doted on her, second brother cherished her, third brother loved her, fourth brother protected her. As for her mother, she was always worried about the fake rich miss, but that no longer mattered. Her grandparents still made the decisions at home and could not be swayed.

In this life, An Zhi Xia wanted to live for herself, make money, and pursue her career. Yet she was secretly being watched by someone.

When Fu Nian first met Chu Zhaoyi, the late emperor was still alive, and Chu Zhaoyi was still a Wangye.... more>>

But at their first meeting, Fu Nian experienced the ferocity of this future ruler.

A cacophony rang in his mind, and as the metallic tang of blood flowed along his numbed skin, Fu Nian heard that devilish voice tell him,

“Thunder and rain, all are the grace of a ruler. Just a bit of thunder, and you’re reduced to such a state.”

Later, he would hear these words again, but it would be a long time later.

“Thunder and rain, all are the grace of a ruler,” Chu Zhaoyi pronounced deliberately by Fu Nian’s ear.

With the remnants of his strength, Fu Nian struggled to suppress a sob, “Your Majesty, such thunder and rain, this humble subject… truly doesn’t deserve.”

[Opening in November]
Fu Nian’s first life ended due to poison.

Sensing his impending fate, he believed that the heart-connecting gu inside him was planted by a pitiable scapegoat, ordered by the ruler. Not wanting to implicate innocent people, he forcefully removed the gu from his heart, gasping his last breath only after handing it to the Imperial Guards.

After death, Fu Nian realized that the one who had planted the heart-connecting gu wasn’t anyone else, but Chu Zhaoyi, the one above ten thousand others. He thought of Chu Zhaoyi as heartless and merciless, someone who didn’t trust him, let alone love him.

Only in death did Fu Nian know that his master, who had plucked him from the pile of corpses and nurtured him, didn’t treat him as a disposable pawn, but genuinely cared for him. After Fu Nian’s death, his master went madly searching for medicine, going so far as to use living people as ingredients, all to save Fu Nian’s life.

His Senior Brother, too, surprised him. Fu Nian had thought that their last meeting before parting ways was the night his Senior Brother gifted him a sword.

Little did he expect that the one keeping their childhood sword manuals was his Senior Brother, and the one keeping the birthday gift he sent was also his Senior Brother. And after his death… it was his Senior Brother who clung to the jar containing the heart-connecting gu that he had dug out, crying uncontrollably.

But what surprised Fu Nian the most was Chu Zhaoyi.

He never thought that Chu Zhaoyi, whom he believed never truly loved him.

Would, after his death, hold onto his already stiffened body, gently place the phoenix crown and red wedding robes he never dared dream of onto him, kiss him devoutly over and over again, and even, like they did in their lifetime, sleep side by side through the night.

Awakening from a deep slumber, Fu Nian discovers a chance to rectify all the regrets of his previous life.

Everything is still within reach.
