I stared at the painting for a long time, unconsciously searching for Zheng Da.
It seemed Bai An hadn't painted Zheng Da. Apart from Zheng Xiaoxi, everyone else was only a silhouette, just an outline. Even Zheng Xiaoxi didn't have clearly defined features.
I was somewhat distracted.
My phone screen had gone dark. I opened it again without thinking, but didn't look at the painting anymore.
I had no memories of reincarnation or past lives, so I didn't feel any deep connection to them.
When I thought of Ye Qing as a hundred-lifetimes evil person, I thought of stories from movies and TV shows.
TV dramas that talked about reincarnation were often love stories. Audiences liked watching tales of passionate love that endured through lifetimes, with lovers never abandoning each other.

Zheng Da was a despicable man, blinded by love, selfish and self-serving, hurting others and himself. In his next life, he became Nakamura Toshiro, but he hadn't grown any wiser. He was still someone who acted without thinking things through. He acted impulsively for the woman he loved, dragged his family and friends into trouble, then married and had children, only to remain obsessed with the past and end up losing his family all over again.

What would have happened if he hadn't encountered the female ghost?
Would Shimada Daiki have ended
