Falls in love with him again after losing her memory | Love triangle | Regrets chasing her | Happy ending | Primarily romantic tension, with a little mystery-solving
*
Shen Lingwan was born breathtakingly beautiful. In her previous life, she made the mistake of marrying the top scholar, who later divorced her. Her mother died of grief, the Shen family was implicated in an arms-dealing case, and the entire household was slaughtered.
Given another life, she quickly dumps her not-yet-successful former husband.
Then one rainy night, she comes across A Heng, gravely wounded and suffering from amnesia.
The moment he opens his eyes, he calls her his wife and refuses to leave, no matter how many times she tries to send him away.
He clings to her with a soft voice, pushes his way into her room, and kisses her with such tender passion that she can never resist him. When danger comes, he also protects her completely.
As they spend day after day together, she gradually falls for him.
But A Heng disappears without a trace.
Only after she travels far to the capital does she learn that A Heng is Zhao Shiheng, the feared Assistant Minister of the Court of Judicial Review.
In her previous life, he was the one who investigated the arms case and destroyed the Shen family.

At the Qionglin Banquet, her former husband Lu Jingyou places at the top of the imperial examinations and basks in glory.
He looks up to see Shen Lingwan standing beside Zhao Shiheng. With everyone watching, the top scholar regrets his choice until his eyes turn red.

Zhao Shiheng assumed the alias Su Heng and traveled south to investigate the charcoal tribute case in secret, but unexpectedly lost a portion of his memory.
Thinking it was an insignificant interlude, he hurried back to the capital to report in.
He has solved countless strange cases and seen through the greed, anger, love, and hatred in people's hearts. Personal feelings have never swayed him.
Until the day Shen Lingwan raises her hand and slaps him, scolding him for repaying kindness with betrayal.
For the first time, the decisive Assistant Minister finds his heart in turmoil.
The author will update it soon. It's so beautiful. I wonder how the male protagonist's dream will develop. Is there any foreshadowing?
