What if you married a man doomed to die... and only you knew the truth?... more>>
The first time Xu Changxia met Jiang Yao, she thought he looked like a war hero from a storybook—cold, commanding, untouchable.
Everyone else stared in awe.
Except him.
His eyes didn’t flicker. Not even once.
Bound by a life-saving debt between families, they were pushed into marriage just before Jiang Yao left for the battlefield.
Xu Changxia shyly agreed.
The second time they met, it was their engagement night.
She waited under the warm glow of the lamp.
He didn’t come.
When he finally did, hours later, he slipped quietly into bed and asked coldly:
“What’s going on between you and Jiang Chi?”
Jiang Yao—disciplined, principled, distant—never meant to fall for his brother’s fiancée.
And yet, after one small request from her, he brought Xu Changxia to the military family quarters on a remote island.
There, home began to form—soft clothes, warm meals, quiet companionship.
And without meaning to, he started to want her.
To keep her.
To make her truly his.
But Xu Changxia had a secret.
She’d lived this life once before.
She knew he would die soon…
And this time, she was going to save him—whatever it takes.
