contents Wu in 1999 conjectured that if $H$ is a subgraph of the complete graph $K_{2n+1}$ with $n$ edges, then there is a Hamiltonian cycle decomposition of $K_{2n+1}$ such that each edge of $H$ is in a separate Hamiltonian cycle. The conjecture was partially settled by Liu and Chen (2023) in cases that $|V(H)|\leq n+1$, $H$ is a linear forest, or $n\leq 5$. In this paper, we settle the conjecture completely. This result can be viewed as a complete graph analogous of Evans conjecture and has some applications in linear arboricity conjecture and restricted size Ramsey numbers.
