After My Death, I Became a Heartless Madman

Song Shizhou is dead.

Before her death, she was the only daughter of the wealthy Song family. Unfortunately, she had been switched at birth. Her adoptive parents abused her, and when she was finally returned to her biological family, they thought she was too uncultured and unworthy compared to the fake daughter they had raised.

But none of that mattered anymore.

After returning to the Song family, she attended a banquet. At the event, she encountered someone who looked exactly like the gentle older girl she had once admired. Encouraged by alcohol, she confessed her feelings. She expected rejection, but to her surprise, the woman accepted.

She remembered the expression on her face. The woman smiled warmly as she listened, appearing truly kind.

The next morning, Song Shizhou realized she had made a mistake. The omega in front of her resembled her childhood crush but was clearly not the same person.

This world had always been unfair to her. As she watched the omega sleep, she decided she would devote her life to caring for and protecting her.

But when the seemingly sweet omega woke up, everything changed. She mocked Song Shizhou, belittled her, and demanded constant proof of her love. If things didn’t go her way, she would respond with emotional coldness and cruelty.

Song Shizhou thought she was simply a spoiled young lady and chose to endure everything.

Later, she discovered the truth. The woman she had given her heart to, the one she thought needed protection, was actually the powerful Chief Inspector of the Inner City, Bai Ruowei.

In a final act of desperation, Song Shizhou proposed to her. Bai Ruowei, always proud and untouchable, gave her a mocking smile and rejected her without hesitation.

Only then did Song Shizhou truly understand. Her love, her promises, her efforts to humble herself, and every word she had whispered to please her meant nothing. To Bai Ruowei, it had all been a meaningless game to pass the time.

Looking at the mocking amusement on Bai Ruowei’s face, Song Shizhou felt her heart truly break for the first time.

Maybe fate took pity on her, because she was given a second chance.

In this new life, Song Shizhou wanted nothing. She no longer wished to stay with the Song family and wanted nothing to do with Bai Ruowei.

She was reborn on the night of the banquet, right at the moment she had pinned Bai Ruowei to the bed.

Bai Ruowei, known for her cold and terrifying demeanor, now gazed at her with gentle, affectionate eyes. She was even sweeter than Song Shizhou remembered.

Song Shizhou apologized and sent her away.

Two months later, at a small art studio owned by her older sister, Song Shizhou saw Bai Ruowei again.

The usually feared and distant Bai Ruowei grabbed her hand and asked with a trembling voice,
“You said you would love me for a lifetime. Why did you lie to me?”

Everyone believed Bai Ruowei was distant and hard to approach.

Until one day, a fool entered her life.

This fool was clumsy but sincere. She whispered “I love you” a thousand times into Bai Ruowei’s ear. And Bai Ruowei believed her.

Since this fool loved her so deeply, Bai Ruowei thought she could lower herself a little and play along.

But then the fool broke her promise.

She died.

Bai Ruowei remembered the lesson from her past life. In this life, she wanted to treat Song Shizhou better, to give her kindness and affection, and to train her into the perfect little companion.

However, to her surprise, Song Shizhou no longer wanted her.

She followed Song Shizhou to a small art gallery. Through the glass window, she saw Song Shizhou smiling at another woman who looked exactly like her. It was the same smile that had once been meant only for her.

In that moment, Bai Ruowei lost her mind.

One-sentence summary:  They all love me, but they never say it.
