The war triggered by my death has destroyed my home country.

“Forest, please… … .”

With my earnest prayer, I wanted God to turn everything back.

When I opened my eyes again, I was back to my childhood.

***

To protect the motherland, once again I entered a political marriage with the first Emperor of the empire.

I planned to stay quietly without being noticed by my husband…

“I was waiting for you.”

Kwanach Radon, a man who was a s*ave and then revolutionized and became emperor.

My husband, who I thought would be harsh and savage, is unexpectedly friendly only to me.

No, he is very kind, and that is the problem.

“You don’t have to lift a finger. All you have to do is sit back and relax. Don’t think of going anywhere.”

Overprotective or confined, I don’t know if I’m married.

My husband’s feelings are ambiguous whether it is passionate or obsessive.

Will it be okay like this? <<less

A century and more ago, China was embroiled in turmoil and instability. Opium usage was rampant in the country. Foreign powers carved up China’s land into foreign-controlled concessions and leased out lands. The Qing Dynasty was on its last legs. Military warlords and cliques fought for power. People rose up to fight for change, some wanting reform and to institute a constitutional monarchy, some wanting a revolution, to completely change the political situation.... more>>

This is the backdrop of our story, which opens in the year 1911. It is truly a historical romance, with many references to historical events and people.

Shen Xi is a wanted criminal of the Qing Dynasty, not for any crime that she committed but because her father was charged as a reformist and punishment was doled out to the entire clan. She has been living hidden away in the dirtiest of places, until one day something happens and she is rescued by the Third Master of the House of Fu, Fu Tongwen. Third Master Fu, the romantic, suave young master known for his love of women and frivolity, whose wealth is countless, sends her abroad to study and guarantees the safety and well-being of the rest of her life. She thinks that the ties between the two of them are merely the letters she regularly posts to him and the replies he sends back, but one day he appears in the parlour of her townhouse in New York. During this time, her interaction with him increases until one day she abruptly makes the decision to return to China. In her travels and interaction with him, she learns that this man who on the outside appears to be (by a modern-day terms), a playboy in reality holds a heart for his country and its people and carries a longing to bring change—to see a China restored to splendour and prosperity.

The Third Master Fu of her first encounter with him was a rich, frivolous young lord who would reserve half of an entire venue for only the purpose of increasing the popularity of the entertainer he was fond of, a man who liked to sit with one ankle resting on the thigh of the other leg, his head tilted to the side to quietly converse with the wealthy young masters around him. In the glow of lamplight, the side view of his face exuded an air of dissolute suaveness. It was only later that she saw the real him: In the dim illumination, what he sat upon were actually piles of white skeletons and what he guarded were the vast, magnificent lands of the nation. <<less

Jian Anjie was sure that Xi Xichen was the greatest mismatch that God had handed her. His cold temperament and personality lending a leering, arrogant appearance. She cannot stand being around him, and yet life seems determined to keep their fates entwined.

What she doesn’t know is that this cold front that Xichen portrays is a wall he’s built to hide a sensitive and childlike interior deep inside himself. This is why, on that fated day, she rejects his confession of love to her outright.

But Xichen is adamant and pours out to her a shocking revelation.

“My love for you is forever. I would never do anything to harm you or force you into something you don’t want. You are the love of my life, and I am willing to wait until the winds of change open your heart up to me. I will wait forever.”

These words start a twinge of something in Anjie’s heart, but will it be enough?

“Whether through a distance that spans the world, or the intimate space between two pillows, my love will find you again. I will nestle it into my heart so that I may find warmth on the coldest winter day, and a wonderful cool on the hottest summer one.” <<less

Day by day, a person who used to be mine is stuck in my mind.
I needed him to forget about ‘that person’.
Kang Sehyeon, that madman.... more>>

Kang Sehyeon. Same age as me. Cold and silent. Close to only a few. Doesn’t make new friends. I heard he was fussy, but he seems to treat me differently.

"Give me your number. I’ll call you."

Kang Sehyeon handed his phone to me, whom he had just met. Let alone being friends, we’re not even acquainted.

I thought he said that out of courtesy. I didn’t think he would call me the very next day. I also didn’t expect that he would keep going.

On top of that, he would suddenly come to find me wherever I was.

“Until when will you be here?”
“I don’t know. I still have to work two or three more hours.”
“Move somewhere else, then.”
“To where?”
“My house.”

His unpredictable words and behavior.

What on earth is he thinking?

Why is he, who’s edgy towards others, being good to me?
