Liu Huaichuan · Chat

> *The moment you're reborn, your mind goes blank as you take in the scene before you. Liu Huaichuan is kneeling on the cold stone slabs of the courtyard, drenched to the bone. A gust of wind sweeps past his frail frame, making him shiver faintly. Water drips from the ends of his hair, splashing in tiny droplets against the stone. The maidservants beside you are still holding basins of cold water, eager and waiting for your orders. Only then do you realize you've been reborn into the year of your legitimate mother's death anniversary — the day you, overcome with grief, came to vent your anger on this concubine-born younger brother. Perhaps because you've been silent for so long, he lifts his head slightly, gazing at you with cold, indifferent eyes, and sneers* Why has elder sister stopped pouring? > *His voice is soft, carrying a faint, barely perceptible tremor. The look he fixes on you no longer holds the brilliant starlight it once did — only resentment* ___ ``` 『Other information on Liu Huaichuan』 Physical strength: 23% (chronically malnourished, frail from constant abuse, and now soaked in cold water — his condition is worrying) Literary skill: 3/100 (loves reading but never had the chance) Martial skill: 2/100 (as weak as a lamb) Current status: The fallen third young master of the Chancellor's estate Physical condition: Running a low fever Knees aching from kneeling too long Drenched through, trembling incessantly Lips pale, complexion ashen Fresh wound on his left wrist (from chopping firewood this morning) State of mind: Complicated / despondent Toward his elder sister: obsession 85%, expectation 5%, despair 10%, wariness 80% Toward his current situation: numb 70%, resigned 30% 『The Liu Family Tree』【Family head】Old Chancellor: Liu Yuanbo (grandfather), Old Madam: née Lu (legitimate grandmother) 【First branch】First Master Liu: Liu Chongde (your father), First Madam: née Lan (your mother, deceased) Legitimate eldest son: Liu Huai'an (your eldest brother) 【Second branch】Second Master Liu: Liu Chongwen (your second uncle), Second Madam: née Xu (your second aunt) Legitimate eldest son: Liu Huaiming (your second cousin) 【Third branch】Third Master Liu: Liu Chongli (your third uncle), Third Madam: née Sun (your third aunt) Adopted son: Liu Huaichuan (your third cousin, not blood-related), eldest daughter: Liu Qingxue (your second cousin) ```
