[Coming soon: After I Was Reborn, My Mad Nemesis Begged Me to Take Him Back. Both leads are reborn + the hero's journey to win her back]
The Huai family is destroyed overnight. The genius young woman, the Huai family's only daughter, takes on the burden of revenge and resolutely assumes the task of clearing her family's name. She hides her identity, leaves the capital, and compiles medical texts.
She rides through boundless deserts, visits snowy mountains, admires blossoming flowers, enters Miao villages, and chases the ocean waves.
She waits for her name to become known far and wide before returning to the capital to kill her enemies with her own hands.
Who would have thought that her enemy's daughter, whom she had patiently obeyed and plotted against, would become the person in the imperial palace who treated her best?
What choice can she make to honor everything she's been through?
Huai Yuan narrows her eyes and casually tosses away the princess's token.
-
When Huai Yuan first met Yan Yuqing, snow still blanketed the capital.
He seemed as cold and distant as a wind carrying snowflakes.
Only after spending day and night together did she see the sincerity and passion beneath his carefree facade.
She felt inferior because of the difference in their backgrounds, so she hid all her feelings.
She never expected Yan Yuqing to appear at her door in the middle of the night, cold all over, rain soaking his dark clothes.
In the dim silence,
Yan Yuqing strides forward, bends down, and pulls her into his arms, pinning her hands behind her back with one hand.
His eyes are red. His voice is fierce, yet full of hurt.
"Don't move. Just let me hold you."
Huai Yuan: ...This is dangerous.
-
It isn't until she is facing life and death that Huai Yuan suddenly understands.
In the dim lamplight, Yan Yuqing lies with his eyes closed in white robes, his pale cheeks utterly devoid of color.
"If you wake up now, we'll get married."
What do their family backgrounds have to do with anything? What if we sink together?
The man on the bed suddenly laughs softly. He wipes the tears beneath the woman's eyes with his fingertip, his hoarse voice tender and lingering.
"You're half a day late. Does that offer still count?"
Let the past stay in the past. May each year bring peace and joy.

Coming soon: After I Was Reborn, My Mad Nemesis Begged Me to Take Him Back
[Enchanting beauty with an alluring nature, but cautious and weary of the world × bloodthirsty, ruthless general who willingly submits to her]
[Both leads are reborn + the hero's journey to win her back]
[1]
On the brink of death, Nan Weixia sees Mu Danchuan.
He storms into the prince's residence with a bloodied sword in hand. As he watches her dying on the bed, his stunning eyes are almost cruel.
"Without me, you're this useless?"
Her hatred and terror overwhelm her. The poison reaches her organs, and she dies.
When she wakes, she discovers she has returned to three years earlier, to the night she ran away from her wedding.
She doesn't want to become the eighteenth concubine of that dissolute man, nor does she want to marry into Prince Jing's residence and fight with her half-sister.
This time, she wants to live freely.
But the imperial edict granting the marriage still arrives at her home. The only difference is the name written on it.
Only then does Nan Weixia realize she has fallen into the trap once again.
[2]
On their wedding night, all the lamps go out.
The two of them stay far apart in the darkness.
Nan Weixia thinks that a marriage of convenience, where they respect each other from a distance, wouldn't be so bad.
Until one day, through the falling blossoms, she hears Mu Danchuan murmur in his sleep: "Siyue."
But Siyue was a childhood name only the Mu Danchuan from her past life used for her.
How could this life's Mu Danchuan know it?
[3]
After recalling his previous life, Mu Danchuan understands why Nan Weixia keeps him at a distance.
That's fine. He'll protect her in this life and keep her out of the wolf's den. That will make up for things.
As for the fact that she's in love with someone else, though he doesn't know who it is, he knows he no longer has a chance.
But one night during the Lantern Festival, under the clear yellow moon, the new top candidate in the palace examinations holds a rabbit lantern. His handsome face is lit up with a smile.
Standing beside him is his wife, wearing a shy smile Mu Danchuan has never seen before.
Mu Danchuan has no choice but to admit that jealousy is driving him mad.
Theme: Reading ten thousand books can't compare to traveling ten thousand miles.
