Xu Ningyan transmigrated twice from the post-era, all to find Zhou Zinian. But the Zhou Zinian of today is no longer the man he once was.
Now a holy maiden, Xu Ningyan has been granted in marriage to Prince Yi, Zhou Zinian.
They are married, but Zhou Zinian does not love her. Still, she does everything in her power to protect him.
When she is framed,
“Xu Ningyan, if you did this, don’t expect me to spare you for the sake of the Holy Clan. I will kill you.”
When she puts a scheming woman in her place,
“Xu Ningyan, how dare you hurt Xia’er? Don’t blame me for sending you a divorce letter.”
When she talks back to the empress,
“Xu Ningyan, apologize to my mother. If you want to be a proper princess consort, you need to obey and put away your schemes.”
When she is injured protecting him,
“Xu Ningyan, I don’t need you to save me.”
“Your Highness, do you know what it means to enjoy tormenting your wife for a while, only to chase her into the crematorium?” Xu Ningyan’s eyes brimmed with tears. She was tired. She had had enough.
In this life, he was never going to be the man for her.
It was time for her to let go.
“What?”
When she had recovered from her injuries,
“Your Highness, the divorce letter is ready. Please take a look.”
“Xu Ningyan, you will never leave me in this lifetime.”
“I have no feelings for anyone in this world, but you were the one who made my heart stir. But Zhou Zinian, I can’t thaw your heart.” Tears streamed down her face, as if she were venting her grief, or perhaps bringing everything to an end.
