After Breaking Up Online with a Tyrant, We Actually Met in Person

[A Thousand-Year Long-Distance Romance Across Time + Yandere Emperor + Sweet Archaeologist]

Twenty-five-year-old archaeologist Wen Nuan stayed up late restoring an ancient painting unearthed at an excavation site. When she woke, she found a new line of writing on it: “This painting belongs to Us.”

Thinking she was seeing things, she casually touched the painting and thought, “Have antiques started coming to life these days?” The words vanished, replaced by:

“What have you to complain about, young lady?”

Wen Nuan: ???

After a few exchanges, she discovered she could chat across time with Pei Du, the legendary merciless tyrant of the Great Sheng Dynasty.

Pei Du: A cold-blooded yandere with overwhelming possessiveness who hates love more than anything.

Wen Nuan: A sweet girl with a round face and almond eyes who loves poking fun at period dramas.

They should have been on parallel paths, yet they began a “thousand-year, long-distance romance” through the painting.

He gets jealous of the mysterious curator by her side. He thinks of her as he works through memorials late at night, then dreams of her. She blushes and her heart races as she imagines what he looks like fresh from a bath.

Then Wen Nuan’s blood drips onto the painting, and a flash of white light

She transmigrates.

She wakes to find herself locked in the Eastern Palace by Pei Du, a golden chain fastened around her ankle. His low, hoarse voice whispers in her ear: “Now that you’re here, don’t even think about leaving.”

When love crosses a thousand years of fate, and the truth hidden in the history books is gently revealed

He has waited for her through three lifetimes, all to say, “My wife, Wen Nuan, for all eternity.”
