Everyone in the capital said Ji Lian had enjoyed a life of smooth sailing. Born the cherished daughter of the Minister of Personnel, she had fine clothes and delicious food, and met her destined partner at a young age.
She was betrothed to Crown Prince Wei Qian at fourteen, and he married her the following year, showering her with affection.
Ji Lian thought her life had gone smoothly, too. The person who had caught her eye at first glance had turned out to love her as well. Once they had confessed their feelings, Wei Qian knelt in the great hall the very next day to ask for her hand.
One day, Ji Lian rested her chin in her hand and watched the man beside her on the pillow. She asked why he had been in such a hurry back then. Wei Chen drew her into his arms and buried his face against her neck. In a hoarse voice, he said, “Do you know how often I thought of you back then? I was always afraid I’d lose you.”
But Ji Lian had never told Wei Qian that ever since she was ten, she had dreamed in her sleep of scenes she had never experienced.
In those dreams, she married a man and thought they would have a happy life together. Instead, he treated her with cold indifference, and in the end his enemy poisoned her with wine, killing her.
In her previous life, Wei Qian was ruthless. To climb to the top, he even used Ji Lian, daughter of the Minister of Personnel.
He had thought his heart was made of stone and that he could never feel anything for a woman. But even the hardest steel can soften, and he fell for Ji Lian.
But once Ji Lian learned that Wei Qian had used her, she no longer felt the slightest attachment to him.
Wei Qian regretted everything. He wanted to protect her, only to discover that she had already been swept into the struggle for power and was killed by villains, her life cut tragically short.
Reborn, Wei Qian saw Ji Lian again. She was wearing a pink padded jacket, smiling with contentment, like a white magnolia blooming in winter.
His heart ached. In his previous life, he had destroyed that loveliness.
This time, he would protect her and keep her safe.
