Fighting!! The arc before the last is too easy for MC, confusing for me, bc it's xianxia world!! Well, that's basically almost accurate, you'll know after you read it..
Another LONG summary, *sigh* why can't I make a short one?? But I'm happy @Rilise approved.
MC woke up to a sound of piano, he reviewed the original memory. The original live in county of music, his family is very rich, but sadly he become an orphan at a young age. The original grandfather trusting him to another rich family, original, Ivy is very close to the eldest son of this family, Feith(?). Same-sex marriage is accepted here, so they even planned to get married when Ivy is of age. Some times after Ivy grandfather passed away, Feith family business is facing bankruptcy, Feith father use Ivy family’s fund to save his business, he thinks original will marry Feith anyway. But things changed when they adopt a piano prodigy, Correa(?). Correa act like a white lotus, but subtly isolate the original. Ivy isn’t as talented in piano as Correa, he changed from cheerful kid to gloomy & quiet kid bc of Correa. Feith dotes on Correa & reprimands Ivy often bc Correa implying that Ivy is cruel to him. Correa become a famous pianist & won many competition, he falls in love with Feith & begs Ivy to give up on Feith. Ivy loves Feith too even tho he is indifferent to him. The day of their marriage, Correa notified Feith that he’ll go to the cliff to suicide, 3 people quarreled, Ivy give ultimatums, if Feith choose Correa, he’ll take his family funds with him so his family will face bankruptcy. In the confusion, Ivy fall from the cliff, Feith & Correa left him bleeding to death. Feith father didn’t rescue Ivy bc Ivy & Feith has sign marriage certificate, so if Ivy dies, the funds will be available for their family. Ivy regrets is he shouldn’t marry someone who don’t love him & wished for better achievement. MC said, since they are so in love, he’ll fulfill their wish, don’t regret it. MC comes down, the family has begun to eat without waiting for him, everyone ignore him. They are talking about the examination to enter a prestigious music school, cheering for Correa. Correa is skilled at gathering others attention with words, so Ivy become more isolated & quiet, no one concerned about him. When MC about to go up to his room, Correa called him & ask to let him practice with Ivy’s treasured piano, Ivy always reject him, naturally MC reject him too. Correa show face full of disappointment & loss, Feith tell him he’ll quietly take him there. Ivy’s treasured piano is personally commissioned by Ivy’s grandfather, when Correa first come, Ivy treat him like a good fried & show him the piano, Correa keep pestering Ivy to let him play it (while acting as a white lotus), even Feith criticize Ivy for not letting Correa play it, Ivy not as good a pianist as Correa anyway. Correa excitedly play the piano when Feith bought him there, MC come & scolds them, Feith scolds MC back, MC quarreled with Feith & chase them away. Feith angrily pulled Correa & tell him that he’ll make a better piano for him. MC ordered his servant to change all the lock in the mansion & not allowing anyone to come without permission. MC think it’s actually easy to crush those family, only wait 1 year & not marry Feith, they’ll get crushed, but others may think he is heartless, after all in others eyes the family has raised MC for 10 years even tho they actually didn’t spend a penny on him since his grandfather already provide the funds. And the first 2 years Ivy is very happy with them, until they adopt Correa. MC want to just live in his mansion, but he can’t live without guardian. To encourage Correa, the family arrange a small banquet, MC is too lazy to participate, the family guest praise Correa while talk bad about MC, Feith mom lament that MC talent & character is bad, he’s too spoiled, but they can only raise MC. MC friend come to complain about Correa white lotus act & Feith talking bad about MC, saying he don’t recognize MC as his fiancé, he only like Correa, etc. MC is indifferent, MC friend rejoicing that MC finally moves on. The day of examination, Correa & Feith act intimate in car while MC ignores them. At the venue, the crowd is buzzing with excitement bc the most famous & legendary piano prodigy (ML) come too, Correa is beside himself in excitement. ML is only 30 yo, but already make his mark in music history, lots of people worship him. Correa goes first & come back pale bc he make some mistakes, Feith encourage him & take him home, MC think he have to go back alone, but it’s as his wishes anyway. MC play song composed by ML flawlessly, ML getting interested in him. Not long after, the family receive 2 letter of acceptance, 1 elaborate letter & 1 ordinary letter. Feith mom immediately give the elaborate letter to Correa & the ordinary one to Ivy, Correa open the elaborate letter and can’t believe his eyes, Ivy is actually accepted as ML student, while he only accepted as ordinary student! Actually getting accepted alone is already a great feat, but bc MC accomplishment is even more impressive, he didn’t feel happy at all. Feith mom immediately call the school to ascertain that they didn’t switch the name. Correa fainted, he actually have a weak constitution, when small he often have difficulty in breathing. MC took the elaborate letter & stay in his room. They didn’t make a banquet to celebrate bc Correa is sick & Feith don’t want to attend it. The first day of school, Correa wanted to follow MC to meet ML, MC tell him he don’t need to act in front of him, he really too lazy to deal with Correa hypocritical game and leave him. MC arrived at ML villa, the butler told him ML still asleep, but ML has prepared a new white piano in practice room for MC, the black one usually used by ML. While MC practicing, ML suddenly appeared from a revolving door, MC realized the practice room is also ML bedroom. ML give MC a higher level practice program, ML ask to see MC hand, MC staring at ML, ML ask what did MC see, MC said ML eyes is very good-looking, ML smile said MC eyes are very beautiful. MC blinked, wondering if he should reject ML if he kiss him, if he reject him, he won’t know if ML is his love, if he accept, the progress is too fast. ML release MC & tell him he will participate in a prestigious competition in 15 days & confident that 15 days is more than enough for MC to practice. ML petting MC face, MC staring at ML open collar (I’m guessing he wears bathrobe), ML ask if MC want anything, MC said no, ML ask if MC want to see it while opening his robe, MC turned his head & strongly denied. ML said if MC got firs place in competition, he’ll let MC see everything. When MC go back & about to go to his room, Feith stop him & warns MC not to bully Correa, MC taunt Feith saying his IQ is too low, if Correa is good & didn’t talk bad about MC, how can Feith think MC is bad? Correa crying to Feith saying MC must hate him bc they are too close, he want to be MC friend, but want Feith love too, he’s too greedy. Correa suddenly appear, saying everything is his fault, don’t quarrel, MC shout that he don’t want to see Correa fake acting, too disgusting, Correa is too calculating, etc. Correa crying, Feith comfort him, MC tell them they are a great pair, both hypocrite, don’t involve him, etc. Feith tell him since MC hate them, then go away, MC tell him he also don’t want to live here, he have his own home, if Feith can convince his parents to drove MC out, he’ll be satisfied, but all his family funds also gone with MC, so Feith family will be homeless soon. Feith can’t say anything, Correa scold MC, how can he said that, this family has raise him, etc, MC interrupt him, how can we be the same? This family never spend a penny on MC, all funds is provided by MC family. Next morning, MC carry suitcase, Feith shocked & feeling guilty he never thought MC will really move out. Feith parents ask what are MC doing, MC said he will live with ML for 15 days bc he needs to focus on competition. Feith mom puzzled bc Correa also participate, but he start in 3 days, her husband reminds her, bc MC have ML as teacher, he can skip to the final. ML tell MC why he want MC to participate, even though everyone knows he disapprove of the school way of teaching, he want MC to won bc that way he can scolds the school even more boldly. MC black line.. He ask if they will let him win since he is ML student, ML said the school is fair, so MC don’t need to worry. ML sticking close to MC while teaching him every trick he knows, making MC hot. ML is very satisfied with MC & want to kiss him so bad. Correa success entering the final, Feith is encouraging him, Correa actually likes silent more before competition, but he can only behave like a white lotus in front of Feith. The crowd is buzzing bc ML come with MC, Correa feeling envious, he come to ML & call him teacher, ML rebuke him, saying he’s not his teacher, Correa apologize, but ML ignore him & rubbing MC, tell him not to be nervous. People ridiculing Correa for daring to talk to ML. Correa tell MC it’s not good to be close to ML bc he is Feith fiancé, MC tell him that he is ridiculous. Correa is very envious of MC, he practice days & night to be good on piano, he lives in orphanage, bc of his poor health, others often bullied him. When he see Ivy & Feith intimate relationship & nice clothes, he feel jealous, he wanted to take everything Ivy have, he succeed in taking Feith family love, seeing Ivy sad face, he feels happy, but now he become ML student, he want to show ML that he is more suitable to be his student. Correa perform successfully, his eyes provoking MC, MC only smile & proceed to stun judges & audiences with his skill (helped by system), everyone applauded him for a long time, even after MC salute for a few times, the applause didn’t stop. Correa got 3rd place while MC got 1st place. ML gloat at one of the judges, he said he respect the school, but also look forward to criticize them more. ML take MC to the pool, then ask if MC want to see it, MC ask see what? Then see ML teasing eyes, he remembered what ML said before, shout he don’t want to see, ML pull the protesting MC to the pool & tease him mercilessly, ML took MC to bed & before lost control of his desire, he left MC. MC still live in ML home, he feel more comfortable there & ML won’t chase him out anyway, only ML often tease him, MC think ML appearance is proud & solemn, but in fact at the bone he is a rouge. Unfortunately Feith under his father order come to take MC back. Feith mom said they arrange a celebration banquet for Correa & MC, MC shut himself in his room, a lot of guest ask where MC is, they can only say MC is tired. Feith & his friend talk bad about MC again, MC friend fed up & come to MC room. The next morning, Feith parent order Feith & MC to attend one of the famous family banquet, making Correa froze, in the past it’s Feith & Correa that will attend any banquet. Feith dissatisfied, asking didn’t they already decided that Correa will go with him? Feith mom finally agree to let Feith & Correa go. MC go to ML home & tries to wake him up, but ML grab & kiss him instead, he ask MC about his engagement with Feith, and order him to break the marriage contract. MC stunned, said their grandfather only do verbal agreement, in fact, his grandfather tell him if he don’t want to marry Feith, he can cancel it verbally too. ML demand him to immediately tell Feith to cancel it, MC said Feith already tell everyone he don’t recognize their marriage contract from a long time. ML tell MC to stay the night & attend the banquet with him, the invitation that Feith family receive is only an ordinary invitation, while ML is a honored invitation. ML is good friend with this famous family, he introduces MC to them, Feith family can only see MC talking & smiling with the famous family, so unlike the usual quiet him. Correa feels like the time he’s in orphanage, can only enviously see MC from afar, Feith watching ML holding MC feels a prick in his heart. At home, Feith parent talk about Feith & MC marriage arrangement, Feith mom hesitate bc she know Feith likes Correa, Feith dad adamant that he must marry MC, if not he’ll take Correa away so Feith can’t see him, bc if Feith didn’t marry MC, their family will collapse, if Feith want to have affair with Correa, it’s ok, but he have to marry MC. Next afternoon Feith mom tell MC they will arrange his marriage with Feith soon, Feith unhappy & about to speak, but MC speak first, he adamantly tell them their marriage contract is void, he will not marry Feith. Everyone shocked, Feith feel uncomfortable, they try to persuade MC, but MC won’t budge, Feith parents panicked, Feith is unhappy. Next day, ML driver come to take MC to ML home, ML overbearingly proceed to the next level with MC (not much details, but it’s on ch 49), then take MC to go around the world for several month. Feith family repeatedly come to find MC to try to persuade him, but they gone for so long that they feel very impatient. As soon as MC & ML back, they take MC away. Feith confront MC remind him that he is his fiancé, so he can’t arbitrary go with ML, MC angrily shout don’t disgust him, bc he is not his fiancé, he isn’t worthy of MC, he already so intimate with Correa anyway, he really feel nauseous, MC drag his suitcase & said he want to go back to his home. Correa is participating in a competition, the family come to cheer on him, then see ML & MC go to VIP lounge, they feel complicated, if MC use ML influence to help the family, they will be happy, but MC didn’t do that, even don’t want to marry Feith, so they are upset, Feith & Correa also feels complicated, Feith is confused with his feelings, Correa is jealous, he ask Feith if he enter the top 3, will Feith promise to fulfill his wish? Feith hesitate a bit, then said as long as he can do it. Correa see Feith hesitation & feels hurt. ML kissing MC & cheering on him. Correa perform well, but fail to convey to song feeling, so there’s not much impact on the audience, he fails to enter the top 3. MC ofc perform perfectly & awed all the audience. ML & MC have a ‘private’ celebration, when MC sleeping ML got an inspiration looking at MC & write a song. Feith is accompanying Correa to practice, but his mind is far away, he remember the cheerful Ivy, how close they are back then, but they gradually become farther & farther. Correa repeatedly call Feith, Feith absentmindedly tell him to rest & he need to do something. Correa feel bitter. Feith mom order him to take MC back, Feith come to MC family mansion, but MC is not there, he still live with ML. It’s the time for the biggest festival of the town, MC & ML perform together, the audience can feel their love and guessing MC & ML is not ordinary teacher & student. ML perform his new song, called Little Prince, a song for his beloved. MC is touched. Feith force MC to go back, MC comfort ML & agree to call him soon. The family interrogate MC relationship with ML, MC frankly said they are lovers, they accuse MC of infidelity & betrayal, MC rebuke it saying Feith & Correa started it first & the contract is void anyway. Feith tell him he want to marry MC, Correa is hurt, but MC adamant he don’t want to marry Feith, he never feel the so-called warmth of home there, etc. MC said he would rather die than marries Feith, the family shut MC in his room & didn’t give him any food for 2 days. MC phone is taken away so he haven’t call ML for 2 days. Feith come to MC room, tell MC he will treat him well, he will change, etc. MC said it’s too late, he don’t care anymore, he love ML, he is much better than Feith. Feith angry, said he apologize to MC about Correa, he want MC to give him a chance, MC know Correa stand in front of his room, tell Feith he’ll agree if Feith sent Correa away, Feith said as long as MC agree to sign, he’ll tell his father to sent Correa away. Correa accidentally pushed the door open, Feith wanted to explain, but he can’t. Feith demand MC to sign, MC said he is selfish & heartless, if Feith insist on not leaving Correa, he may not despise him, he won’t sign bc Feith is ruthless. Feith forcing MC & MC use the opportunity to hit him, also deliberately getting hurt, then he hears ML voice, ML ‘rescue’ MC & take the photo of MC injury, he calls his friend in the court & give him the evidence of MC injury, he tell him he’ll sue the family. ML friend assure him he’ll get satisfactory result, then see MC & ask ML if MC is his ‘Little Prince’, the song is now the most popular song. Feith family tried to appeal to the press, saying MC & Feith has marriage agreement, Feith acting sad bc MC lured away by ML. ML release evidence of MC injury, the family servant also testify that MC is imprisoned & starved by the family, other also testify that the family only want MC wealth to fund their business, MC friend indignantly describe Feith bad attitude to MC, Feith friends also confirmed that Feith repeatedly deny his relationship with MC, even have the photo of Feith kissing Correa in a party. The family lost their custody of MC & their business collapsed, Feith dad imprisoned, Feith is sued for defamation & injury, Feith mom sold everything they have to bail Feith. 3 people can only move to a remote town, Feith & his mom don’t have any other work experience, everything is depends on Correa. Correa have to drop out from school, play piano on a small pub & occasionally tutor childrens. Feith become abusive towards Correa, one day when Feith drunk, hit him & accusing him of interfering with his & MC happiness, Correa made up his mind to leave, no one ever heard from him again. MC & ML got more famous & live happily. MC ask why ML fall in love with him, ML said from the first time he see MC, he feels that he can’t let MC go, MC is the key to his happiness. MC didn’t understand how can ML follow him each reincarnation, will he keep following him? He have a hunch that he’ll know someday, only he don’t know when.
Awww so sweet!!! I'm already liking the ML! And the ML and MC already know that the other person is the MC/ML in other the arcs? So it isn't like QWFD, where they try to find each other (and only the MC has memories of ML, but the ML just 'feels' he needs to be with MC)? Unless the ML and MC of this one still look the same and still have memories of the prev arcs?
Ahhhhh! I can't resist anymore, I'm too curious!!! I'll finish reading this novel first before reading others XD
So that's why.. I think I skip that part, thank you @kiara8
thank you, you're too kind @Taida07 I'll try posting more spoilers then, but I'll be AFK till Monday bc of family gathering for New Year, so definitely no post from me till then.
