By the thirty-third time she was trapped in a rebirth loop, He Yanqing had finally learned two things:
First, her obsessive infatuation with the Crown Prince every time was a shackle of fate.
Second, the sinister, ruthless Prince Zhao Hengzhi, who ascended the throne and restarted the loop every time, was the only one who could stand beside her and fight fate.
Zhao Hengzhi taught her how to read the Crown Prince’s feelings, dealt with the rumors for her, and, when she was kidnapped, braved danger alone to shield her in his arms.
He Yanqing looked at his stern profile, and her heart skipped a beat. “Your Highness, what are you…”
“To break the loop.” He turned away, his voice cold.
But the medicine he brought her late at night, the river of stars beneath the city walls, and the way he risked his life to protect her in moments of danger all spoke of feelings his words denied.
When the gears of fate turned once more, he wore the imperial robes and strode through the palace on the night of the coup.
Standing outside the hall, He Yanqing watched his proud, solitary figure and suddenly understood.
This thirty-third cycle had never been about that naive, lovesick Crown Prince. It had all been so she could meet him.
It's good to watch and the plot is quite novel.
