I had never met such an innocent, kind young woman. She treated me so well that my heart softened, and I wanted to hide her away in this little sanctuary. When the leader sent people to kill me, I didn’t reveal a word about her. A sword through the heart hurt terribly, but I had no regrets.
I never had the power to keep her hidden. The people who wanted her dead were powerful, and they found her soon enough. She struggled through several lifetimes, yet still couldn’t escape her destined death.
When I woke again, I had become her and inherited all her memories. Like her, I was loved by my parents and had Jiang Lin by my side.
So I took on her fate, too. I did everything I could to hide and escape, but all three cycles ended in failure.
This is my fourth reborn life. If I can’t break the cycle this time, I may never get another chance. Though I have memories of my past lives, I still can’t predict how things will unfold. I survived several assassination attempts, but few people around me remain.
At last, Jiang Lin and I entered the capital, met our relatives, and confronted our enemies. I thought I could finally live out the rest of this life in peace, but another storm was brewing...
