[Transmigration + Past Lives and Present + Forced Love + Fragmented Male Lead + Mutual Angst]
Lin Xiangning, a modern-day corporate drone, transmigrates into the body of the newly appointed empress of Qi.
On her wedding night, she is terrified, expecting to face a crude, cold emperor. But she falls for him at first sight.
The emperor is peerlessly beautiful, with a noble bearing and gentle, tender eyes. He dotes on her alone, showing her more affection than his entire harem of three thousand, and keeps her by his side day and night, showering her with bone-deep tenderness.
She thinks she has found the love of a lifetime and gives him her whole heart. In the end, it turns out to be nothing but a carefully planned deception.
When Chancellor Qin’s rebellion suddenly erupts, all their tenderness comes crashing down.
He married her only to keep the chancellor in check and stabilize the court. She was nothing but a pawn to be moved at will in a game of political intrigue.
Every tender moment and every sweet word had been a lie.
“I have no true feelings for her.”
His icy words crushed every last bit of her devotion.
They meet again five years later. The emperor who once ruled the world has shed his arrogance and now holds her captive before an ice coffin, breaking down in a hoarse, desperate plea:
“Xiangning, don’t go… Turn around and look at me.”
No one knows that from the very first meeting, she had come to win his heart.
