Taming the Monster, One Last Time

Song Ru's assignment was to reform Wei Xu, a villain nobody else could handle, and she spent everything she had on it. She was close to finished when the system failed and she vanished without warning. She opens her eyes eleven years later in a new body, as Song Qingru, third daughter of the Song family. In those eleven years Wei Xu learned that Song Ru was dead. It turned him. He is now the state preceptor, white haired, and the court is afraid of him. The mission is still open and it still names him, so Song Qingru has to walk the same road a second time, approaching a man who has already been through this once with someone he does not know was her, and who has spent a decade becoming far harder to reach than the person she nearly saved.
