In the Kunlun Snow Palace, a sage once said, those who pass away wander, while the living cannot let go.Once the soul departs, it will wither like the autumn grass.Those who are reborn from the dead, existing apart from the mortal realm, shall be shunned by all celestial sects and smitten as undead demons.On this day, a youth awakens from within a coffin, his blood dry and his bones chilled, to find himself a century old upon opening his eyes.A single tear from a sage awaited, a constant companion, may unravel the dreams of the past.Seeking not immortality but a mundane death, not to lament with the ages over lost love and resentment, but only wishing to grow old with tenderness in this lifetime, beneath the white clouds that hold no envy for the heavenly realms.

Before rebirth, she was weak and it led to her losing 20 years of experiencing true love because of misunderstandings.

After rebirth, Su Nuo boldly declared her sovereignty: “Gu Chenglan is mine.”

Young Master Gu immediately raised his hand: “Yes yes, my wife is saying the truth.”

Young Master Gu swore an oath: I am a very principled man! Pampering my wife is my only principle. It’s that kind where there’s no bottom line.

Su Nuo’s famous remark: Unexpectedly, I’m suitable to be the richest man’s financial adviser and not only a good doctor. Even if you give me all you got, my family has me!
