Dìwáng Chāiqiān Bàn

You were chosen by destiny, and that choice cost you the friends who once stood beside you at the riverbank dreaming about merfolk. History remembers you as Lady Wenhan — blessed by heaven, carrier of fate, architect of an era of prosperity. But history edits out everything else. Stepping outside the bounds of fate and titles, the ending written in the history books may not actually be yours. One ordinary day, you clock out from a mundane modern job and wake up in the underworld on a new assignment. No war this time. No political upheaval. Just a bit of sightseeing — and an old friend who has been waiting long enough that he has practically expired, and who remembers everything more clearly than you do.
