In her previous life, Lin Suisui married Gu Yanze, full of hope that they would treat each other with respect. But he fell in love with her half-sister, Lin An'an.
Her half-sister took her place in the palace and became the emperor's favorite consort.
She was cast aside and divorced, then eventually died in a sea of flames, burned to ashes.
One day, she was reborn on the eve of her wedding.
She had lost her memories, and all that filled her mind were endless nightmares:
Raging flames, thick smoke, screams.
She didn't know why. She only knew one thing: she couldn't die again.
She ran away from home, wanting only to get away from the Lin family and from that fire.
On the road, she met a young man of breathtaking beauty.
He had refined features, skin like white jade, and a calm gaze.
Lin Suisui's mind went blank with infatuation.
Faced with such a beauty, she blurted out:
“My lord, I'll take care of you. Run away with me, won't you?”
She hid him in a separate residence and devoted herself to planning their elopement.
Meanwhile, the scoundrel Gu Yanze passed the imperial examinations and came first.
In front of everyone, he tore up their marriage contract and married Lin An'an, humiliating Lin Suisui.
But no one knew that the beautiful young man she had hidden away, the one she planned to elope with,
was none other than the young emperor Xiao Zheng, traveling incognito.
Xiao Zheng had been waiting to ascend the throne, but had no interest in political marriages.
He was obsessed with Lin Suisui alone and fiercely protective of her.
Then one day, fragments of memory suddenly came crashing back.
The fire that had burned her to death was somehow connected to this emperor.
Lin Suisui forgot all about the gentle man beside her, washing her feet, and turned to run in terror.
Xiao Zheng pulled her into his arms, his voice hoarse and obsessive. “Suisui, in our previous life, I failed you. In this life, I'll cherish you until the day I die.”
