【Xie He:Baby, help me exchange for a ticket to “Dreams of Your Past Life: the Theater of Life”. Let Han Wenqian see what happened after his death in a dream.】

【444:Huh? Σ( ° △°|||)︴】 ndey0u

【Xie He:What’s wrong, Baby?】

【444:Is this necessary…? _(:зゝ∠)_】He really feels that this move is really a little too ruthless…..

【Xie He:You just have to follow orders. Smile.JPG】

【444:…OK! One ticket to “Dreams of Your Past Life: the Theater of Life” costs 1000 experience points. Exchange complete! It has been implanted in Han Wenqian’s mind. The next time he falls asleep, he will see it!】

【Xie He:Very good. This is my breakup gift to Gege. He will definitely like it. 🙂 】

【444:……】

Xie He seemed to be in a really good mood, as if he had completely let go. He even initiated conversation with Han Wenqian.

After eating dinner, they went out onto the street. As they passed a large building, Xie He suddenly smiled and said to Han Wenqian, “Ge, I want to eat cake from that Western bakery. I haven’t had it for a really long time.” lXmzOj

Han Wenqian immediately nodded. “Wait here. I’ll buy it for you.”

He didn’t even think about it and left. He remembered that bakery. He used to pick up cakes for Xie He after work in the past. Although the other was a boy, he really loved sweets. Han Wenqian used to tease him affectionately about it.

That bakery had pretty good business. Although Han Wenqian was in a rush, he still had to wait a while before he could make his purchase.

He carried the cake out with a heart full of anticipation. It had been the first time Xie He had smiled at him in a very long time. It had also been the first time he had come outside with him and asked anything of him in a long time…. Everything caused his heart to jump for joy. It was like he had caught a glimmer of hope, like things would only get better and better between them from here…. aFNzmc

However, when Han Wenqian returned to the spot he had left Xie He, the other was nowhere to be found. That moment, a baffling sense of dread arose in Han Wenqian’s heart. The joy completely disappeared. Where had his younger brother gone?

Many people ran past Han Wenqian, heading towards a building’s entrance. What were they saying? It sounded like they were saying someone was jumping from a building.

Han Wenqian followed the stream of people in a daze. He looked up and saw Xie He sitting on the window sill on the sixteenth floor. Both hands were on the sill and his legs were dangling in midair. It looked like he had been waiting for someone. When he noticed Han Wenqian, he smiled at him from afar. This smile was as pure as it had been in the past.

It was just like it had been in the distant past. Fci A6

The wind blew against the young man’s bangs. Han Wenqian gazed at him from a distance with a tilted head…. The next second, he watched as the boy jumped off, arms spread out. He was smiling at Han Wenqian. His lips parted. He seemed to be saying something.

Han Wenqian couldn’t hear it. Everything felt like it was playing in slow motion. He bolted forward with everything he had in him, wanting to catch his angel. He wanted to hold him, to take him home, but he was a step too late….

He watched as the person he loved crashed down onto the ground beside his feet. Soon after, blood slowly seeped out from under him…staining Han Wenqian’s shoes…staining the ground red….

The cake box fell from Han Wenqian’s hands. Everything in front of him was a blur. VE36KO

A long time later, he slowly knelt down, and pulled the young man into his arms. But all the bones in the young man’s body had been shattered. When he held him, the other felt like he was a lump of flesh without any bones. The other’s head fell against Han Wenqian’s neck. He was still smiling.

Han Wenqian cupped Lin Xin’s face and softly said, “You’re scaring me again….”

But no one responded to him.

Han Wenqian asked, “What did you say to me just now? I couldn’t hear it. Tell me again, okay…?” DSxL7I

He tried to throw off the person holding him and punched really hard, knocking down the other person. Immediately after, more people came over to suppress him. Han Wenqian felt a pain to the back of his head and then everything went dark as he fell to the ground…. The moment he shut his eyes, he saw someone take his younger brother away…..

He wanted to reach out and grab hold of him but he couldn’t reach him…. The other was taken away. hqQwny

………………………………

When Han Wenqian woke up, he found himself lying in bed at home. His mother was watching him with a worried gaze. There were also tears in her eyes. She sobbed, “You’re awake.”

Han Wenqian tore off the blanket and began to leave. As he walked, he asked, “Where’s Xiao Xin? Someone took him away. Where is he?!”

Mother Han pulled him back and cried, “He’s dead.” WPJQKF

Han Wenqian threw off his mother’s hold and angrily said, “He’s not dead!”

Mother Han looked at Han Wenqian, tears blurring her sight. She didn’t know what to say. She had also seen Lin Xin’s condition. She was in so much pain and was so upset…if even she felt this upset, then what about Han Wenqian, who loved Lin Xin so dearly…? Just how much pain was he in…?

Han Wenqian didn’t care and continued to make his way out of the room. However, before he could get past the front door, Han Chengshan stopped him. Han Chengshan slapped Han Wenqian and said, “What are you making a fuss for? It was you who couldn’t take proper care of him. You couldn’t even care for one child and you still have the gall to cause a fuss!”

Han Wenqian’s head whipped to the side. In that instant, he froze. These words drained him of all his strength. His face paled and his lips trembled. lF3aqt

Yes, it was all his fault. He hadn’t been able to watch over the person he loved properly…. He had thought Lin Xin had managed to walk away from his pain. Several minutes ago, he had been smiling at Han Wenqian. He looked so normal. He had even said that if none of this had happened, he might have fallen in love with Han Wenqian….

He had thought that Lin Xin finally wanted to start anew. He had been so happy…which was why he had been so careless.

Han Wenqian raised his head to stare at Han Chengshan, dazed. His eyes were very still. It was all his fault…it was he who didn’t keep a proper eye on Lin Xin.

Han Wenqian slowly let out a hoarse voice, “I want to see him one last time….” 8z1c2y

Han Chengshan looked old and exhausted. A long time later, he nodded.

Han Wenqian left and went to see Lin Xin’s corpse again. He handled his funeral arrangements. He didn’t sleep for several days in a row. He just accompanied Lin Xin, right until he was buried.

Han Wenqian caressed Lin Xin’s tombstone and stared at the picture on it. The young man had on a bashful smile and one could see faint dimples in his cheeks. Han Wenqian peered at the photo with a gentle, yearning gaze. He quietly said, “What did you want to tell me that day? I couldn’t make it out….”

Han Wenqian shut his eyes and fainted. jp2qZy

He fell into a very long dream. In his dream, he returned to his previous life.

That day, he had rushed over to confront Lin Xin but had found Lin Xin in bed with Qin Ye. Lin Xin had mocked him. Blinded by his extreme anger, he hadn’t paid attention to the traffic and ended up dying in a traffic accident. He then floated out of his corpse. Next, he watched how things had unfolded afterwards.

This was what he hadn’t gotten to see in his last life.

Han Wenqian watched as Lin Xin rushed out from Qin Ye’s home. He held Han Wenqian’s corpse and wept. SeFlag

Qin Ye followed behind and stared coldly at Han Wenqian’s body. He said to Lin Xin, “What are you crying for? The Han Family has committed too many evil deeds. They should have died long ago.”

Lin Xin’s face was completely streaked with tears. He screamed at Qin Ye hysterically. “You promised me! You said that as long as I did as you told me, you wouldn’t hand the Han Family over to the authorities!”

Qin Ye cocked a brow up. “Yeah, I kept my promise, didn’t I? He got hit by a car and died all on his own.”

Lin Xin was so angry he nearly fainted. ZzGJwo

Han Wenqian watched Lin Xin cry sorrowfully. His heart ached terribly. But he was just a ghost. He could not approach the other or comfort him. He could only float beside him and watch on helplessly.

He watched as his body was buried. His father’s hair had turned white overnight. His mother cried so hard it seemed like she would be the next to pass away.

Lin Xin had been aggrieved and heartbroken the whole time. But eventually, he had calmed down. One day, he went to see Qin Ye and said to him, “You’re right. A dead person isn’t worth my heartache. The Han Group will be yours sooner or later. You promised me a portion of it.”

Qin Ye said, “Of course. I don’t just want the Han Group, but you as well. You will also be mine.” aWrQR9

Lin Xin smiled and said, “Good. I’m very capable. You won’t lose anything by being with me.”

After saying this, he kissed Qin Ye.

Story translated by Chrysanthemum Garden.

Qin Ye didn’t think Xie He would kiss him. He was left in a daze…until he was stabbed in the chest. Lin Xin sneered at him. For the first time, a crazed, sorrowful expression appeared on the face of the young man who had always been gentle, quiet and seemingly apart from worldly affairs. He stabbed Qin Ye over and over, and Qin Ye eventually stopped breathing. Despite this, the young man kept stabbing while saying, “It’s your fault, it’s all your fault…if it wasn’t for you, my brother wouldn’t have died. I have to take revenge….”

He kept muttering while he stabbed the other. In the end, he let out a pained smile. He whispered, “Ge, I’m sorry….” He then slit his own wrists and blood spurted out…. teLVSu

Han Wenqian’s eyes bulged out of his head. He reached out, frantic, wanting to cover Lin Xin’s wounds, but he only passed through the other’s body.

It was like he was watching a movie. He could only see the other but he could not touch him.

He watched as the younger brother he loved the most committed suicide after taking revenge for him…. He watched as the blood slowly drained out of the other, dyeing the world red. It was like watching a bloody scene of slaughter in hell….

Han Wenqian reached out time and time again, in futile attempts to touch Lin Xin. In the end, he only ever managed to pass through the other’s body. He said with a trembling voice, “You don’t have to do this. I just want you to be able to keep living…” cjJ6Rf

Even if I die, it doesn’t matter. I just wish for you to live….

Why are you being so stupid…?

Tears painted Han Wenqian’s face. His gaze gradually became fuzzy and his heart twisted in pain. So this was what happened in his last life…. Now he knew…. But he would rather Lin Xin never have taken revenge for him. He wished that at least in his last life, his younger brother could have lived well….

Han Wenqian woke up. He opened his eyes and touched his face. He had cried for real. 3BSorm

Finally, he was able to make out the last words Lin Xin had said to him as he had jumped. He had said, Gege, take me home.”

The cold, dusky moonlight filtered in through the windows, shimmering down onto the ground. Han Wenqian slowly sat up and walked to Lin Xin’s room. There was no one inside, but everything was the same as it had been in the past. The only difference was that the person he loved was gone now. It was empty, cold and still.

He walked out, pushing the door open to the piano room. The white grand piano sat there quietly. Han Wenqian’s gaze grew unfocused, as if he could see the young man of the past, sitting there in front of the piano with a gentle and bashful smile on his face. His fingers were flying off the keys, playing out a beautiful melody….

He remembered seeing that beautiful scene right after his rebirth. At that time, he hadn’t known that for the rest of his life, he would only ever get to see that kind of scene again in his dreams…. It was what he now wished for the most. He was willing to pay with his life if he could just get that back. mQ9Ife

And yet, he hadn’t cherished it.

Han Wenqian finally understood why he had been reborn. The Heavens had given him a chance with rebirth so that he could properly cherish the person before him. It was so that he could work hard to protect the beauty before him…. It was a chance for him to protect his happiness.

But he had only had hatred in his heart, so he had destroyed it all…he had destroyed the person he loved most.

Han Wenqian stood in front of the piano all night. The next morning, he happily told his parents, “Dad, Mom, I know what to do.” 5f9zl

Mother Han looked at him with an aching heart. “Tell me.”

Han Wenqian said, “I have a secret I’ve been keeping from you. Actually, I will die in three years. But I’ve been reborn. It was because I mistakenly thought that Lin Xin would betray me in three years, I framed and hurt him. This is the real reason for why I had hurt him. I had always been afraid you wouldn’t believe me so I never told you…but now I understand. I know how to fix things. I just have to be reborn again! This time, I will properly protect him and won’t disappoint you guys again. This time, I definitely won’t mess up. Trust me.”

Mother Han covered her mouth, tears streaming down. Her son had lost it.

After saying this, Han Wenqian eagerly ran out the door. Last time, he had died when he had been hit by a car. This time, as long as he died in the same fashion, he could be reborn once more! dKmD1I

This time, he would definitely cherish Lin Xin properly. He could not make the same mistake twice. He would not let anyone hurt him!

Han Wenqian’s eyes were full of anticipation. He rushed out into the oncoming traffic. However, before he was hit, the police stopped him. Turns out, the moment he had left the house, Han Chengshan had called the police.

Han Wenqian’s eyes were bloodshot. He screamed, “Why are you stopping me?! I won’t die! I’ll be reborn! I’ll fix my mistakes!”

Han Chengshan stared at him and shut his eyes. He didn’t say a thing and left. umYSlr

He seemed to have aged many years at once. His back had even bent quite a bit and his hair had turned white. Mother Han watched as Han Wenqian was subdued by the police and sobbed silently. One of her sons had died and the other son had gone mad.

The police officers didn’t take Han Wenqian home. They brought him to the station and then sent him to a psychiatric hospital. He had the psychiatrist deal with him.

Han Wenqian fought the whole way, roaring in anger non-stop. He kept telling them that he had been reborn and that he wouldn’t die!

But no one believed him. Everyone thought that he was crazy. The doctors thought that Han Wenqian was too violent. Even with several people, they almost couldn’t hold him down. They had to give him a sedative. NZCMYE

When Han Wenqian woke up again, he saw that he had been tied down to the bed. He immediately began to struggle with all his might and shout. But no one paid him any attention.

The doctors came to forcefully inject him with medication every day, calming him down. They then kept asking him the same questions over and over again. Han Wenqian kept insisting that he had been reborn, that he wouldn’t die. He said he wanted to be reborn again to fix his mistakes…. The doctors all thought that he wasn’t getting any better so they continued with his treatment. They had him take large quantities of medication. Because Han Wenqian’s mental state was very unstable, he kept trying to escape or kill himself, so he was tied to the bed for a very long time. He was unable to leave.

A year passed and Han Wenqian finally stopped saying that he had been reborn. He also stopped making a fuss. The doctors would occasionally let him leave but they kept him under a strict watch.

Mother and Father Han would come see him but Han Wenqian didn’t recognize them any more. He had really gone insane. 5fbWsG

Han Wenqian stayed at the psychiatric hospital for several years. He had been reclusive and never spoke to anyone in the beginning. But later on, he made a friend. It was Old Liu from the room next door.

Old Liu was a middle-aged man. He looked very slovenly but he had a very good personality. He complemented the reclusive Han Wenqian very well. The most important part was that the two of them had much to talk about.

Every day, the two of them would sit in front of each other, sharing a table in the cafeteria and chat.

Old Liu would point to his empty left side and say, “My boy Han, this is my wife, Ah Yan.” FeP293

Han Wenqian would look to the empty space on his right and say, “This is my younger brother, Xiao Xin.”

Old Liu said, “Ai yo, your younger brother is really adorable. What a good child.”

Story translated by Chrysanthemum Garden.

Han Wenqian would then reply very happily, “Your wife is beautiful. You’re very lucky.”

Old Liu would then answer back, “Aren’t I? I love my wife the most. I promised to love her for the rest of my life.” AzMQGo

Han Wenqian was not to be outdone. He said, “I also love my younger brother the most. I said I’d protect him for the rest of my life.”

The two of them complimented the other’s loved one. It was a very big display of affection. They chatted very happily. But when the hospital workers saw the ridiculous pair, they couldn’t help but shake their heads. They wanted to laugh but also felt their hearts ache.

After eating, Han Wenqian would bid farewell to Old Liu. They would promise to continue their chat the next day.

These days went on for a long time, until one day, Han Wenqian didn’t show up. That day, he didn’t go out to eat with Old Liu. By the time the doctors found him, he had already died. shy1vC

It turns out that he had secretly been stashing medicine for about a year. He had hidden them beneath the bed and had then eaten them all at once. All sorts of psychiatric medicine filled his stomach. There were also some pills left in his throat and mouth post-mortem.

The expression on his face made it clear that he must have suffered greatly when he died. But upon closer expression, you could see a sliver of a smile—as if he was finally free.

The author has something to say:

Lalala, finally this world has ended, la~ Tomorrow, I’m going to take a day off to plan out the next world~ dDT1E

\(≧▽≦)/ New world announcement: The Cold Prince and the Charming Princess-Consort.


Eve: I can’t help but feel bad for HWQ and Old Liu. But of course, my heart aches the most for Lin Xin. I knew my cinnamon roll could never have done anything bad like that. Anyway. 3 more worlds to go! Jiayou~

sere: HNNN HURT LKANSDJKGN the first time i read this i felt like XH really went all out in squeezing that last bit of abuse out even as he died. Spoiler(?): after i read the last arc this abuse really hits differently

Translator's Note

OK so if you read a lot of BL, especially old BL, authors tend to use “feminine” words to describe the shou, such as “wife”, and in this case, “princess-consort” or “wangfei” (lit. Wife of a prince). I originally chose to keep it this way because I’m translating, not writing. But the more I have to use it, the more it bothers me. Anyway, I will be using ‘wife’ and ‘princess consort’ in the next arc because it’s an ancient era so they’re probably not PC anyway. In the last two arcs (and likely my future projects), I’ll probably use spouse or another gender neutral term instead unless there’s a reason to keep it that way. While I think that it’s totally cool if someone wants to be called ‘wife’, regardless of what gender they identify with, I also think that just defaulting to calling the ‘bottom’ in a relationship ‘the wife’ is too heteronormalizing.

  1. This was so sad QAQ I cried a lot… I might (?) want to read a sequel where he did get reborn successfully? If there is one. IDK.

  2. Waaaaaah this is so heartbreaking!! 。:゚(;´∩`;)゚:。 I feel bad for WQ too. The gong abuse is too much for my heart to take but still soooo soooo satisfying. Thank you so much for the update!!!

    Going back to lurking mode -ᄒᴥᄒ-

  3. thank you for the chapter! why is nobody talking about the parents’ abuse? the mother was totally innocent and she got screwed on both timelines…

  4. Can… can we get a happy ending story for LX and HWQ like the one in Quickly Wear the Face of the Devil?? 🥺🥺 my heartttttt 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

  5. Hehe. I feel bad for Wenqian, I really do. Nobody deserves that, but so is Lin Xinㅡnobody deserves that. Han Wenqian had his karma coming. On another note, is Old Liu a reference…?

    Thanks for the chap!

    • Sadly just before a suicide the patient really gets suddenly better. But only to have enough strength to go through with it. So you have to be really careful if something like this happens. It’s good that they get better but sudden and big improvements are a big red flag.

      A sad but important truth.

      Thank you for the chapter!

  6. It seems i’ll be skipping nexy arc, sadly

    Got no time to put up with the princess/wife bullshit. Thanks for the translation guys

  7. This made me shed tears. He became a fool and a lunatic… the part when he wanted to get into a car accident for another rebirth got me.

    Thank you for the chapter!

  8. Whew! I didn’t expect HWQ to be put into an asylum! But how dumb can you be to keep insisting on your “story” when that’s what got you committed and drugged out with psychotropics?!

    • I don’t think it was because he was dumb. It was probably more like, Lin Xin’s death broke him. He kept insisting on his story because he was desperate for them to believe him so they’d let him go get “reborn” again. People are rarely rational when faced with overwhelming grief

      • I suppose it was as it said, he really did go insane… This level is beyond me. But I guess if I had done the scum things he did to the person he did… I can only say he got what was coming to him.

  9. Every arc is just hurting everyone else and no one escapes from the suffering.

    Every arc no one basically wins.

    Thank you for the chapter!

    Just RIP

    (A rebirth is blursed. Either be a curse or blessing and it’s up to the person whether they want it to be a curse or a blessing)

    I hope every pitiful character in this novel to be reincarnated and have a happy and fulfilling life.

  10. I told you so! I knew XH would suicide. But damn I didnt expect the ninjas to attack with onion blades! Q^Q

  11. WHAT HAPPENS IN THE LAST ARC WHY DOES IT MAKE THIS HIT DIFFERENTLY!?????? PLS TELL ME IT HITS DIFFERENTLY IN A GOOD WAY!!! 😭😭😭😭😭😭

    • The reason why it hits differently is related to background information revealed about MC and ML. Uhh it’s not really a bad thing or a good thing LOL I’ll also leave that the last arc is angsty is a different way then all the previous arcs were. And there’s a very sweet ending.

  12. aih…I binge reading 6 month worth. first i cried and cursed the scum gong, then I laugh and hope for a more dog blood. asking more and more abuse towards the mc, because, the more he fly higher with his abuse, the more painful he will be in slaughter scene…

    thank you for the chapter!!

  13. 😭😭😭😭As always, the arc makes me cry like a baby! The little scene with Old Liu was so cute but heart breaking!

    Thank you for the chapter

  14. Thank you so much for the hard work !!

    Wow, I feel sad but I also feel so numb ….

    😕

    Next arc sounds exciting!

  15. So sadd I cry so much through this arc😭

    This has got to be the cruelest gong abuse in the entire novel (༎ຶ ෴ ༎ຶ)

  16. wow. A protagonist finally figured out the halo and plot armor all on their own!!! He finally figured it out!! He figured out if he died he’ll just be reborn again!!

  17. The hurts😭😭😭 my kokoro bleed!! My poor baby Lin Xin, hurts so badly in TWO lifetime. Gosh. The gong abuse is quite satisfying. And also so sad. I dunno i a M or a S. Thank you for the chapter.

  18. Ahh now I can finally sleep peacefully and prepare for the next heartbreaking arc. QwQ

  19. allright. I’m used to it now. let the tears flow.

  20. Yeah, nah, thank god for XH stepping in. If LX had to go through it personally, I’d yeet my 60kg+something table in author’s face.Worst of it all, LX would die much more miserably because he might not be able to hold on like XH did, with all misunderstandings uncleared until that secretary screws someone else over in his stead again. Speaking of that secretary, I’m pissy. Don’t feel good. Need 444 to buy me delicious food to calm down.

  21. The last 3 arcs I didn’t manage to cry (probably because I was numbed at that time) then this arc came up and guess what, I can’t even breath through my nose!!!! (ㄒoㄒ) Lin Xin is the MOST lovable bun, why must you hurt this cute baby!!!! Wuwuwu I feel so bad for him

  22. HWQ is the one who got abused in the last but why im the one who was tortured 😭 author why are you keep hurting us😭

  23. Ummmmm. Plot hole but isn’t his father already dead? Before his accident happens? How did his hair turn grey, sorry this is really bugging me

  24. My eyes actually burned. Right now, this is the only arc I almost cried, especially when I reached the part Xie He planned to leave.

    Surprised-pikachu-face.jpeg

  25. I haven’t been crying for the past few arcs and I thought it was cause my angst tolerance grew stronger but…boy was I wrong. This arc hit me so hard man

    • Hahaha,I thought so too so I decided to skip through this arc and went straight for the gong abuse:) Now why does this method feel even more painful? I dont know if I should feel relief over the fact that I didnt read XL’s suffering because i could not bear it. The first chapter of this arc,I immediately saw that there was some sort of misunderstanding and my heart was soft for XL. However,it did made me confuse alot but I still came to know of the idea on what had happened overall.

  26. this story have the most angst..i couldn’t dare to read the middle chapter, HWQ is so cruel towards his brother…serve him right to died in misery state

  27. +1 @/sere!!! The abuse this time really hits different ah! I meann…i’m speechless with President Xie’s work!!

    It’s not just Gong Abuse from the first arc to end anymore…Reader Abuse? Except anyone who reads SCCG is an M

  28. So you are saying all my worries were for nothing? This was a normal arc? You terrible authors, you scared my poor old soul into believing the gong wouldn’t get retribution! How I suffered believing somehow they would get together in the end. Ah, I’m so glad I didn’t skip this arc!

  29. HNGHHHH my heart hurts…. I know it’s just a story but the dog blooded plot really hurts. Poor cinnabun LX! 😭 I wanna stop but I can’t stop. The more pain I feel, the more I want to see the story through to the HE…. Ugh…. 😢

  30. Wows,after reading the reviews,I declare everyone as a masochist/possibly sadists for coming this far into the novel. Let us read through this amidst the heartwrenching pain and suffer together,la!

  31. Lets all be positive everyone!

    We must remember that XL didnt go all through that and its just the mc acting. The ones who suffered are the gongs. XL never experienced how he was tortured by his beloved brother,never had a drug addiction,etc.

    XL died in his prev life,taking revenge for his family. Its really nice how XH transmigrated just the day HW was reborn. So in short,XL only got to see his caring brother and family.

    (Hopefully,XL isnt inside the body all this time watching someone controlling it hopelessly and how the people he loved would do something like this:) ahhhh idk,XH is just too good at acting

  32. Nobody wins, nobody ever wins here. Most of all the readers who are abused the most in this novel T T

    At the same time, i’m a sadist, i think the gong deserves it and more, happy with the retribution. At the same time i also knows that with him not knowing the full story, it can’t be helped that he would want revenge the moment he is reborn. His reactions were normal, but actions went too far and dark. It can only be a tragedy. The only thing that makes me slightly better is that it didn’t happen to og Lin Xin in the present life, but our heartless slag President Xie, who carefully move the plot along to complete the mission. I just wished those other scums, Zhou Yuebin and his gang, along with that senior girl who tricked Shu Yan also get their retribution.
