Synopsis

[Devoted 1v1 romance + his pursuit of her + childhood sweethearts + pampered by all + noblewoman vs. transmigrator] (Awakening, not reborn, no palace harem, no previous life)

Lin Zhuyun was born into a distinguished family of meritorious officials. Raised in comfort, she is radiant and refined, frail yet carefree and composed. She was granted the title of commandery princess at a young age, cherished by the Empress Dowager, and grew up with the emperor like a childhood sweetheart.

Later, the emperor, who had hinted in his youth that he would marry her, said, “You aren't suited to be the dignified, gracious empress who rules the realm's women.”

One day, Lin Zhuyun awakens to the truth: she is the vicious supporting character in a book, a woman of noble birth with a foolish obsession with love. She enters the palace as a noble consort, becomes willful and spoiled, makes life difficult for the heroine, and creates countless misunderstandings with the emperor. She even puts the Lin family, who are active in court, in danger, and ultimately dies in despair.

Lin Zhuyun gradually distances herself from him, but he keeps coming after her. She doesn't want to repeat the same mistakes, so she decides to take a husband into her family in order to get away from him.

When the news comes out, the man who once stood above her and said she wasn't suited to be empress accidentally knocks over his teacup.

Later, he sees her smiling brightly at a man as the two travel together, riding out to enjoy the spring. He clenches his fist until his palm breaks, his eyes turning red.

Later still, the cold and ruthless emperor lowers himself and asks gently, “Would you still be willing to become my empress and survey the realm with me?”

Lin Zhuyun's cool, radiant face bears a look of relief. “Lin Zhuyun isn't suited to be empress.”

“I was wrong.”

“Could you look at me the way you used to?”

“Pei Jingchuan was too proud. He thought you would always stay by his side.”

“I thought I needed to keep the court in balance, but without you, what use is it to rule the realm?”

Content warning: The male lead does not change! Both leads have room to grow.

A broken mirror can be mended; let's see how the author does it.

The female protagonist awakens to the fact that the events she dreamt of were a rewriting and fabrication of history by others. In reality, she should have lived a peaceful life with her childhood sweetheart, the emperor. (Theme: The female protagonist, whose destiny was forcibly rewritten and whose fate was stolen, strives to save herself.) It's an awakening!!! Not a rebirth!!!

It's good! I hope the pacing is faster; I want to see the part where he chases after his wife!

Not bad. I hope the author will choose a high-quality male supporting character next time! And please, make it more angsty.

I have to say I was drawn in by the "wife-chasing crematorium" plot. I rarely read serialized novels, and I was planning to read a few chapters and then put it aside, but I ended up reading the whole thing in one go. Now I'm anxiously waiting for more updates every day... There are currently 77 chapters.

I found the story's premise quite novel, and the themes were relatively normal. The female lead was quite clear-headed. Those interested can check it out. The past life's tragic ending felt relatively normal—they could never meet again in this life. Overall, I found the story very good. This story is for those who want to see a broken relationship mended. Those who prefer mindless romance or stories where the second male lead wins, please refrain from reading. 💕

It's great! I suddenly had a craving for melodramatic stories, and this one is exactly what I was looking for! It's melodramatic, the author's writing is excellent, and the plot doesn't feel abrupt. The pacing is also superb, fulfilling all my desires for a melodramatic story. Author, keep up the good work and update soon!
