Leng Xiaoya comes from a world brimming with spiritual energy. In a ridiculous accident, she transmigrates to the modern world along with Bai Hu, her divine beast companion, nicknamed Xiaobai.
She transmigrates into the body of a girl with a sallow face and a skeleton-thin frame. Then one day, people from the village arrive to take Leng Xiaoya back to the city. Between going to school, varying degrees of psychological pressure at home, and outside influences, the girl has grown increasingly dark, going further and further down a shadowy path. That’s when she meets Gu Shaoting. Their contest between light and darkness begins. Gu Shaoting: “You can try falling in love with me. I can protect you.”
Leng Xiaoya: “Why would I? I can take care of myself.”
Gu Shaoting confesses passionately: “But I’ve already fallen for you. You’re mine, and you can only be mine. I belong to you alone.”
Leng Xiaoya answers confidently: “The world is so big. I’m not the type to hang myself from a single tree. I still want to go out and see it.”
Xiaobai: “Master, someone’s flirting with you. Should I kill him?”
Leng Xiaoya: “Got nothing better to do? You should go learn hacking.”
Xiaobai rolls his eyes. “Master, do you remember I’m a white tiger?”
Zhao Tianyu says excitedly: “People from the Leng family are here to give you trouble. Want me to deal with them?”
Leng Xiaoya gives a wicked smile. “No need. Let them come in, then shut the door and sic Xiaobai on them.”
Bai Huo says with a grin: “Xiaoya, I just accepted a job. I’m going to assassinate a godfather in Country M. Want to come?”
Leng Xiaoya: “Sure. Come to my place. We’ll fly out at eight tonight.”
Gu Shaoting looks displeased. “I’m coming too. I’ll protect you.”
Bai Huo drapes an arm over Leng Xiaoya’s shoulder and says dismissively: “Look how tough Ya-ge is. Does she need your protection?”
Gu Shaoting: “Take your hand off her.”
