Just in Time to Meet You

In her previous life, the entire He family was executed, and only He Sijin survived.

The one who had led the soldiers in the raid that day was His Highness Prince Chao.

From then on, Yan Chao became her enemy. She lay low in Prince Chao's residence for five years, all for the chance to kill him.

But Yan Chao was cold and indifferent, showing no emotion. Even when she risked her life against him time and again, he never spared her a second glance.

He even handed her the knife she used to assassinate him.

Only at the very end did she learn that she had hated the wrong person.

As she lay dying, she reached out, but in the end, she never got to see him bend down to her.

They had spent half a lifetime together, hating each other, using each other, and plotting against each other in every way. In the end, she could only die with regret.

Reborn, He Sijin was still young. She planned ahead, determined to save the He family from disaster.

As for Yan Chao, she feared him, avoided him, and respected him. In this life, she only wanted them to owe each other nothing.

Unexpectedly, as she was drawn into another scheme, he once again became the god who saved her.

It was only then that she understood that the man who had been as cold as ice in her previous life could also be so warm.

Before he turned fifteen, Yan Chao never missed a shot.

After he turned fifteen, he could no longer use a bow.

The once dignified and refined Seventh Prince suddenly changed in temperament.

Then came an imperial decree of marriage.

Everyone said the He family's daughter was pitiful, having missed the good times.

Only Yan Chao saw the truth.

Whenever he awoke in the middle of the night, his little princess consort would drowsily reach out and pat his back. "It's okay. It's all right."

She was the deepest obsession of his life, and its most precious treasure.

A mutual journey of salvation

Coming soon, see my profile: The Will to Marry Into the Family

Jin Shuyi's maternal family was the richest in Jiangnan. Unfortunately, her grandfather was getting old, and she watched as grasping relatives prepared to snatch and divide up the family business. She had no choice but to find herself a live-in son-in-law.

He was exceptionally handsome and did whatever she told him.

There was no other reason: she had paid him to.

Though the handsome young man had married into her family for her money, Jin Shuyi felt bad about asking him to do so much. She did all she could to dress him in gold and silver, and asked him more than anything else, "Do you have enough money to spend?"

Even so, he was rarely happy. Jin Shuyi understood why, so once she had secured control of the family business, she wrote him a letter of release. After many days of hesitation, she finally decided to set him free.

"If you want to leave, you can go anytime," she said.

She looked up and saw his tightly pressed lips, then added in a soft voice, "To be honest, if I keep supporting you like this, I'm... I'm going to run my family business into the ground..."

Three years later, the country enacted new policies. Jin Shuyi was brought to the capital by her biological father, becoming the daughter of the Marquis of Zhenguo overnight and taking his surname.

On her first day in the capital, she was brought to a palace banquet. It was her first time in the palace, and she was so nervous she didn't dare look up. Then, just as the emperor was about to arrange her marriage, a familiar voice came from above. It was as casual as she remembered: "There's plenty of time, Imperial Brother. Why not think it over?"

She looked up in shock and saw His Highness Prince Yu, said to be a master schemer, slowly lifting his wine cup beside the emperor.

Their eyes met, and she froze on the spot.

This... wasn't this the husband who had stormed out of the house?
