However, he has a secret: he used to be the most prolific demon king in history! In his plight of trying to end his suffering, he runs into the amnesiac Xu Rouguang. This man cannot remember anything else about his life... but that he loves Lai Mingjie. Who would have thought that this man is actually the demon king's wife... and executioner?! With the promises of freedom and a new life together, the two of them works on recovering whatever they can to rebuild the destiny that they have placed onto themselves—and what they have shattered all the same. How strong can they be in their crossed paths filled with pain, death, and separation… now that they are together again?

Instead of responding to Hua Xiao directly, Lai Mingyan only hummed to himself. "Maybe I should stop channeling fairy essence. Someone's getting very honest."
Hua Xiao narrowed his eyes before laughing out, but his laugh was neither insulting nor deriding. It was the kind of villains did when they were being amused by the person they were speaking with. Right, Hua Xiao laughed like an amused villain. "Oh, wow, sorry… you should blame Qin He for telling me things about you. Are you less interested in me now that I am beginning to see past the reverent image?"
