One-on-one romance, two powerful leads, both reborn, sweet historical romance, and a pursuit of love after regret
Shen Qingci died in the third winter after marrying into the Marquis of Zhenbei's household.
Alone in a cold courtyard, with a solitary lamp and no one to care.
When she opens her eyes again, she's back on the day before the tragedy began.
With disgrace and a forced marriage looming, Shen Qingci wants nothing more than to cut ties at once, escape her coldhearted ex-husband, and live a quiet life of her own.
She'll buy pastries from Chen's Bakery, save her silver, and protect her younger brother.
As for men? Hah. Keep away from me.
But her ex-husband, who has also been reborn, seems to be acting strangely…
Xie Yunzhou has been reborn too.
He's returned to the time before she died, before she came to hate him.
Looking at his wife, lively and full of life, whose only wish is to get away from him, Xie Yunzhou feels a searing remorse deep in his heart.
He doesn't understand love. He only knows that he owes her his life, and a lifetime of peace and security.
In this life, he swears to protect her quietly and make it up to her twice over.
So…
He brings her favorite pastries before she can ask;
He secretly takes care of the trouble she runs into;
And the divorce papers she wants… he tears them up.
Xie Yunzhou thinks this is only natural: if he feels guilty, he should take responsibility to the very end.
But when he sees her smile at another man, the panic and fury that seize his heart make him suddenly realize:
Could the feelings that burn within him day and night really… be nothing but guilt?
