An Lingrong Reborn: Making Things Right for You and Me

(Plot-focused, slow-paced)

An Lingrong is reborn after being selected to enter the palace. For the sake of her own life, she has no choice but to go.

In this life, she accepts the dark little schemes in Zhen Huan’s heart. But from an all-knowing perspective, she can only pity Zhen Huan as she closes her eyes, covers her ears, and deludes herself into loving that old, wicked, unfaithful emperor.

After meeting Bai Fan, who is wholeheartedly good to her, she thinks she has found love, and gradually comes to understand what it means to love and be loved…

Later, she meets many others. She brings some people together, helps some, and harms others.

She wants to help her mother escape her coldhearted father, who only knows how to drain her dry, but her mother resents her for it. At last, she admits that her mother has never truly loved her. Her mother has only ever had eyes for her father, and when faced with a life-or-death choice, she would choose him without hesitation.

An Lingrong: Fine. Then spend the rest of your lives entangled with and tormenting each other. I’m done cleaning up this mess.

She works to poison the old emperor and support Zhen Huan in becoming empress dowager, all so she can gain the identity of an ordinary person, leave the palace, and open an embroidery shop. But she never imagined that Zhen Huan, a self-serving person, would imprison her in the palace to protect herself.

An Lingrong sets Zhen Huan’s palace ablaze, wanting them both to perish in the flames.

Just then, a voice murmurs in her ear, “Lady An, I told you long ago: other people’s promises don’t count. Only what you decide for yourself does.”
