A ruthless man, an indomitable soul, and a twisted entanglement full of wrongs. Four years ago, she sent him to prison and only found peace when he was sentenced to death. Four years later, he dragged her into hell, witnessing her being insulted and injured, yet still harboring no resentment. This is a meticulously planned revenge, as well as a persevering act of vengeance. Fushenxing originally believed that Heyan would always be within his grasp. To put it simply: in the beginning, the male lead torments the female lead until she's a wreck, and later, the female lead torments the male lead until he's ashes. Yes, it's as simple as that. Don't fantasize about the male lead being kind-hearted and gentle in the beginning, and don't expect the female lead to give up easily in the end. (Previous chapters have been revised and deleted. If you notice any inconsistencies in the plot or language, please use your imagination. Alas!) Note: Nanzhu has no moral compass, no sense of shame, and no bottom line. He's simply despicable! Feel free to criticize him, but please don't harm the innocent (like the author). Friendly reminder: The story involves many dark aspects, so please remain vigilant and close the page if you feel uncomfortable. Discussion of the plot is welcome, but no personal attacks, please. Thank you.
