I think so. If Jade used magic to turn back time basically right after Viche died, then he wouldn’t have met the FL of the novel. Maybe he also took a few years to learn that spell and so could have possibly met the FL of the novel but didn’t fall in love because he was too focused on getting back to the past
So jade turned back time after viche died but then did jade not become the emperor and meet the female lead of the novel at that time?
