Reborn in 1971, and the Village Rogue Won’t Behave
Colonel Rebecca Lin has two weeks left before retirement when a terrorist attack strikes the hospital at Fort Hood. She dies saving a young private.
When she wakes again, she is fifteen-year-old Lin Xiuyu, a doomed villainess being sent to the countryside in a 1971 period novel.
According to the story, Xiuyu is destined to ruin her family, lose everyone she loves, and end up trapped in a miserable marriage.
Rebecca has already died once. She refuses to die according to someone else’s plot.
Her plan is simple: stay out of trouble, protect her family, become a doctor, and avoid He Zhenbei, the notorious village rogue who is far too handsome for a man with no respectable occupation.
Unfortunately, He Zhenbei keeps appearing injured, suspicious, and entirely too pleased with himself. He brings her food when others cause trouble, steps between her and danger without being asked, and treats every attempt to avoid him as a challenge.
The jade pendant tied to her rebirth is another problem. It reacts to blood, heals injuries, and seems connected to memories Xiuyu cannot explain.
Rebecca woke inside the villainess’s life. But somewhere along the way, she stopped thinking of it as someone else’s.
She is Xiuyu now, and this time, the ending belongs to her.
