A short story about An Lingrong being reborn and taking revenge. It’s not friendly to Zhen Huan’s circle, whom she uses, or to the Empress and the Emperor. There’s a bit of a romance with Hua Fei, but An Lingrong still puts her own interests first. (I once saw an analysis suggesting that An Lingrong projects her longing for a lover onto Zhen Huan, and her longing for a mother onto Yixiu, so I’m using that idea. Nian Shilan, who grew up cherished and became bold and carefree, represents what An Lingrong longs to be. That’s why, after being reborn, she can’t help noticing Nian Shilan, and after Nian Shilan responds to her, she gradually falls in love with her.)
