Chang’an [Rebirth]

Ruan Linshuang spent her entire life putting on an act, pretending that she and Chai Zheng were strangers, pretending that neither cared about the other.

Yet she could only watch helplessly as the Chai family was condemned to the extermination of nine generations, and Chai Zheng was beheaded before her eyes.

Determined to avenge Chai Zheng, she dared to rebel against the throne all on her own. The vast empire was divided into northern and southern territories, and just as Ruan Linshuang was one step away from victory, she fell victim to a treacherous plot!

Reborn in the year she first met Chai Zheng, Ruan Linshuang wanted nothing more than to love and protect her. Instead, Chai Zheng became the one protecting her, and all their pretense of being strangers and their carefully maintained restraint vanished in an instant.

Ruan Linshuang wanted the empire, but she wanted Chai Zheng just as much. She wanted that young general who galloped across battlefields, as proud and solitary as the moon high in the heavens.

After being beheaded, Chai Zheng opened her eyes to discover that she had become a little child with tiny arms and legs, running after little Ruan and calling her "Sister."

She had thought she could finally build a relationship with little Ruan from childhood, rescue the beauty like a hero at the tender age of two, and offer herself in marriage.

Who would have thought that another reborn Ruan Linshuang would suddenly drop out of the sky, ruin her plans, and insist on dragging her along to build a career?

Many years later, an eight-bearer bridal sedan stopped outside the imperial bedchamber. Inside sat Chai Zheng, dressed in a phoenix crown and embroidered wedding robes, clutching an eighteen-foot red-tasseled spear.

"Little Ruan, Little Ruan! Do you have time to get married today? I've come to marry you!"
