"Su Cha, are you home?"

The rather strange yet familiar voice that resounded from a distance felt as though it had traveled through space and time. Su Cha opened the bedroom door to notice a dashing, bright man carrying a bag of steamed meat dumplings.

At first, he appeared to be frowning, looking displeased. However, once he lifted his head and laid his eyes on Su Cha, who had opened the bedroom door for him, he was taken aback by her appearance.

The lady standing by the door was still as exquisite as she was before, but in comparison to her usual pale and simple look, the lady in front of her was standing with her back straight. She was filled with an inexplicable appealing yet… intimidating aura from head to toe.

Her tousled hair was slightly cascading down, looking a little messy but carried with it a sense of beauty.

Wearing a plain white cheongsam and barefooted, she revealed her long legs and thin ankles.

It was an ordinary look, yet it exuded a deadly tempting aura as from an alluring woman, causing one to have the urge to hold her in their arms.

His heart skipped a beat. He was not even head over heels in love with her, but at this moment, he could not stop himself from walking close to her, saying, "Why are you not wearing your shoes? The floor is so cold. Beware of catching a chill…"

"Zhai Yao?"

Su Cha blurted out his name. He walked toward her, showing a smile on his face. "Yes? Why? Did you miss me already?"

As he was uttering those words, he extended his arms, intending to hug Su Cha.

Su Cha pushed him away immediately.

Zhai Yao stood still in bewilderment.

Su Cha turned around, and her eyes revealed a hint of endurance. Her body was quivering; even her palms were shivering.

It was all due to excitement.

She never expected this to happen, like seriously!

I am back in my first lifetime!

A lifetime that had left her with deep regrets and, of course, with hatred toward some individuals. She felt a strong desire to witness these people reap what they sowed!

Su Cha had experienced two lifetimes. During her first lifetime, she was merely an ordinary girl named Su Cha. Although she was born gorgeous, her life was a real tragedy. Zhai Yao, who was standing right in front of her, was one of the culprits of her misfortune.

If it was not for them, Su Cha would not have put in so much effort to reach the highest position in her second lifetime.

After the death of Su Cha in her first lifetime, she was reborn as a princess in ancient times. It was the era of martial arts and royal courts. She relied on her luck and on the cultivation of martial arts, putting to use her great capabilities to climb up the ladder and become the supreme dowager empress.

At such a young age, she had already become a dignified, highest-ranking woman in the world.

However, in her countless dreams at midnight, she still could not let go of what happened in her first lifetime that had caused her tragic death.

She wanted to exact revenge regardless of the consequences.

The man who'd died in front of her was the root of her remorse.

Due to this reason, she did not tie the knot with anyone in the olden days.

Thanks to her good luck, the son she'd adopted became the emperor, and she ended up being the dowager empress.

She remembered that she did not manage to live past the age of 30 in her second lifetime. How could she possibly return to her first life in the blink of an eye after awakening from a night of sleep?

"Su Cha?"

As Zhai Yao came to his senses, he directed his gaze at Su Cha's back, exasperated due to embarrassment. "Why did you push me away?"

This woman has never been daring enough to raise her voice in front of me before, and yet today, she dared to push me away!

Upon hearing that voice, Su Cha turned her face away indifferently. Her cold expression carried a tinge of murderous intent. Zhai Yao was not aware of that, but the look on Su Cha's face had indeed frightened him at that moment.

He unconsciously lowered the volume of his voice as he said, "Are you okay, Su Cha? I heard you were drunk last night. Have you had breakfast? Which part of your body feels uncomfortable?"

"What's the date today?"

Su Cha did not respond to his question and instead posed a question of her own.
