This is a transmigration novel that does not villainize the original male and female protagonists.
To return home, Wu Xicui must romance the seemingly "Young Bodhisattva," who is actually a yandere with psychopathic tendencies—Wei Tansheng.
To win over this yandere, she dies twice—killed by him, tormented by him.
And when he finally falls for her, she coldly toys with his emotions, watching him cry, helpless, his eyes red with tears as he murmurs deliriously, "Don’t leave me... have mercy on me."
Wei Tansheng, the third son of the Wei family, was taken by local bandits at the age of ten while accompanying his father to a regional post. After being rescued, he was left with a limp.
Half a year later, he entered Kongshan Temple under the care of Master Liaoshan, devoting himself to Buddhist teachings.
At eighteen, Wei Tansheng left the mountain, returning to the capital as a layman—yet he still lived as a monk, burning incense and worshiping Buddha daily.
Steeped in Buddhist compassion, he appeared gentle, kind, and benevolent, earning him the nickname "Young Bodhisattva" for his ethereal beauty.
But only Wu Xicui knows the truth: beneath this merciful facade lies a heart as cold and unfeeling as ice.
Humans see water as waves; fish and dragons see it as a cavern; celestials see it as crystal—but hungry ghosts see it as raging flames and festering blood.
He is no Bodhisattva. He is a hungry ghost, feasting on the suffering of others.
A two-faced, empathy-deficient yandere male lead × A heroine whose only desire is to go home—truly cold and unfeeling.
Note: The female lead reincarnates three times—first as a dark-skinned, burly man, then twice as a woman.
