The Xie Family all studied law, possessing the fine qualities expected of a scholarly family. Xie Shang too had them: elegance, deep learning, a Fragrance Connoisseur versed in classics, also skilled in zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting.
But he was mad, capable of reciting the scriptures while holding a Buddha statue, as well as breaking people's hand and foot bones, very gentle, yet very cruel.
Xie Shang didn't become a lawyer but opened a pawnshop instead, where you could pawn anything as long as the story was compelling.
One day, someone came to the pawnshop and told a story:
In Fragrant City, there was a family with the surname Wen, where daughters took their mother's surname. The daughters of that family could cast spells, the kind that bewitched men, leaving their lovers either buried with them or taking vows of celibacy; in short, either dead or destined for a lonely life.
Xie Shang's uncle had died in Fragrant City, which is why he accepted this particular pawning business.
Bewitched, confused, thrilled, deeply in love, but love unattained, and a pain so intense it made life unbearable. — This was the script Xie Shang had prepared for the deaf boy Wen Changling.
In the end, it was Xie Shang who ended up with this romance-addled script.
Wen Changling: Are you surprised, Mr. Xie Shang?
(This isn't a book transmigration story, it's a contemporary sweet romance. The 'script' in the book title implies deliberate plotting.)

He is Lovestruck in the Revenge

Because as long as Xie Shang told Jiang Chengxue that she had secretly had a child, Jiang Chengxue would certainly not tolerate it. He had been soft-hearted just once, and that was with Wen Changling.


Because of his relationship with Wen Changling, Xie Shang had restrained his true nature quite a bit, and perhaps some had forgotten that he was the bad shoot that grew out of the Xie Family's bamboo forest. He wanted Jiang Chengxue to pay with her blood, and he had been planning since before the New Year, cooperating with Dai Qiu, aware of all Jiang Chengxue's plans, and also aware that the race car had problems.
