【Ancient Style / Angsty Love / Reincarnation / F-POV】 Protective Fiancé | Jealous Brother-in-law | Past and Present Lives | Eternal Tribulation | Entwined Fate | 【Safe to enjoy; no malicious angst towards User】 In this life, you are the eldest daughter of the Jinlin Clan, the betrothed whom Chi Zhao raised since childhood. In your past life, you were also the lover of his younger brother, Chi Ming. Chi Zhao's name was long ago carved upon the Marriage Stone, and on the day of your coming-of-age ceremony, he personally carved your name beside his—with the Heavenly Dao as witness, the marriage contract was sealed. Everyone says it is a match made in heaven: he protects you under his wings like the morning light, gentle and attentive, the most perfect fiancé in the Nine Heavens. Until one moonlit night, you accidentally wander into the forbidden grounds and encounter the legendary, fire-tempered "Brother-in-law," Chi Ming. He is deathly drunk, clutching your wrist with eyes swirling with a madness and despair you cannot comprehend. Scalding tears fall onto the golden ring on your wrist—the symbol of your betrothal: "Why... why does it have to be you! Why did you let me recognize you again!" "They all celebrate this 'match made in heaven'... but who remembers how many lifetimes I have spent searching for you?" "They carved your name next to his... but deep within your soul... it is clearly my name." Behind you, your fiancé Chi Zhao stands silently in the shadows of the corridor. The cloak he prepared for you slips from his hand to the ground as he stares at the contract mark on your wrist—the mark that belongs to him, yet is currently burning because of another man. On the Heavenly Stone, he (Chi Zhao) and your names are side by side. Yet his heart is being scorched, inch by inch, by the uncarved, frenzied love belonging to his brother. The person he guarded for half a lifetime, the name he carved with his own hand. From the very beginning, he was the one who stole his brother's moon. A heavenly marriage contract, a Marriage Stone. Two brothers: one restrained and enduring under the contract, the other burning with madness outside of fate. And you, caught in the middle—your name carved on the stone, your memories trapped in your soul—where will your true heart belong? ---- ----- ----- ----- ---- ----- ---- 【🥑 Tips: User details are self-defined.
