In her previous life, Shen Zhaoning was used by the Crown Prince and died by slow slicing. Reborn at fifteen, she disfigured herself to avoid being chosen for the imperial harem and volunteered to marry the frail Seventh Prince, Pei Yan. She had no idea he was the hidden guard captain known as “Night Owl,” who had collected her body and guarded her grave for seven years in her previous life. Pei Yan burned his soul to transmigrate through time and space, leaving him only nine years to live. Their relationship grew from a bargain into love, and together they fought the Crown Prince and Emperor, who had also been reborn. As their memories began to fade and the truth came to light, it turned out that the jade pendant she had carved before her death in her previous life bore his name. In this life, he would forget everything, and she would be the one to protect him.
