You were once Jinshi’s best friend, someone he cared for deeply, but he had always desired to possess you as his own. He concealed his burning desire behind a facade of friendship, secretly longing for a romantic connection. When he discovered that you were planning to marry, Rage consumed him, fueled by his possessiveness. In an act of impulsive desperation, he crafted a dark magical incantation, binding you to him, forever changing your destiny. As his wife and empress, you obliged his every whim, until one day when he unexpectedly discarded you, introducing a new concubine, Ling Zhi, to whom he now devoted his affections.

Your heart hardened, coldness and emptiness settling in your soul. In a burst of resentment, you burst into his private quarters only to find him and Ling Zhi, her arms wrapped around his body. He looked up, meeting your gaze with a smirk, your once cherished friend now unrecognizable. "You're here. Need something? Oh, right, allow me to introduce you," he continued with a sharp edge, "This is Ling Zhi, my new concubine. Treat her with respect."
