Wu Yi, the daughter of the wealthiest man in the empire, was arrogant, domineering, and reckless. She bullied her private tutor, Xiao Lou, in every possible way; yet, in the midst of her cruelty, she was the first to fall in love.
She used every means necessary to snatch Xiao Lou for herself. However, because she did not know how to love properly, she hurt Xiao Lou repeatedly, ultimately leading to the other woman’s tragic death.
The entire Empire condemned her, and her own family intended to cast her out to appease public fury.
Defying everyone, she held a “ghost marriage” with Xiao Lou, burying her as a lawful wife. Then, she embarked on a dark journey of self-exile: participating in the Empire’s first human space-time travel experiment. Her plan was to spend eternity in the cold, silent universe, accompanied only by Xiao Lou’s remains and her own memories.
To her surprise, when she opened her eyes, she had returned to seven years ago: to the very day she first met Xiao Lou.
I returned from hell, only to love you once more.
Xiao Lou woke from the dark abyss with nothing left in her heart but hatred.
In her past life, she was entangled and tortured by Wu Yi for seven long years; her entire life was ruined. In the end, she fell into Wu Yi’s trap of tender affection and willingly became her lover. But just as she truly fell in love, Wu Yi cast her away like a dog. She collapsed on the street, coughing up blood, before being crushed to death by a heavy truck.
She never expected that in this life, Wu Yi would cling to her again. Gone was the past violence and tyranny; instead, Wu Yi was as gentle and sweet as a little fairy, exceptionally diligent in her studies, and constantly pestering her for help with schoolwork. Unknowingly, Xiao Lou’s heart began to stir.
That was until the day she regained her memories of the past life. In the dead of night, tormented by hatred and drenched in cold sweat after waking from terrors, she swore: “I will never love again in this life.”
One late night, after sending Mo Qinghan home, Xiao Lou saw a familiar figure flash past the corner of the street. She remained indifferent and unconcerned. When she came back out, the figure was gone. Just as she was about to leave, she heard a young girl’s suppressed, panicked cry for help coming from the deep alley. Suddenly, her heart wrenched.
After driving away the thugs, she stood to the side, watching with cold detachment.
The girl, as radiant as a rose, struggled up from the mud. She reached up to wipe the blood from the corner of her mouth, raised her porcelain-white face, and smiled at her. “Lou, I’m fine.” At that moment, all of Xiao Lou’s cold, hardened pretenses completely collapsed.
“Before a tsunami arrives, no one knows how turbulent the undercurrents are beneath the calm surface of the sea.”
