Unfortunately, Li Xin was the former.

In a mysterious space, a man looked at the delicate and soft woman, like a pear blossom after the rain, and sighed. “Have you finished reading? This is your world. A novel featuring Lu Zigui.”

As one of the most miserable beauties who was cheated by the protagonist to devote herself to him all throughout her life, she was ultimately sacrificed for the sake of his “true love”. The man had thought that once she saw the truth of the unilateral “love” between them, she would cry bitterly or maybe cause havoc.

However……

After reading the final word, Li Xin casually closed the book, her expression as usual and lightly said, “You mean, my brother is not Lu Zigui, but Xu Yan. I recognised the wrong person, right?”

The man was dumbfounded by her tranquil manner, not resembling that of an implicated party, and hesitated, “……En.”

Li Xin: “So, what do you want to see me for?”

Man: “……If I said I could return you to the past?”

Li Xin: “Good.”

Looking at the woman’s slender figure fading into the brilliant rays of light, the man was at a loss and said blankly to himself, “Wasn’t this procedure too simple?……”
