[Reborn Twice + Revenge on Scumbags + Powerful Couple Who Dote on Each Other + Fated Bond]
The moment her fiancé and “best friend” joined forces to push her into the river, Lin Wan thought it was all over.
When she opened her eyes again, she had become Shen Qingci, a concubine-born daughter in the ancient Shen manor, bullied by everyone. And the faces of that treacherous couple had appeared on Prince Jing Xiao Jue and the Liu family's daughter, Liu Ruyan!
“Shen Qingci, I want you dead.” Xiao Jue held his blade to her throat, his gaze exactly like Chen Hao's when he killed her.

From an ancient execution ground to a modern riverbank, from Xie Yunlan's arrows to Gu Yanchen's gun, he had crossed life and death across two lifetimes for the sake of one promise: “Shen Qingci, Lin Wan, whoever you are, I'll never let you shed another tear.”
The instant the phoenix jade pendant fit together, memories from both lifetimes crashed into one another
