Paper Cranes Keep Falling on My Shoulders

Ancient romance, imaginative fantasy, transmigration to another world.

Li Xiaoman thought she was just an ordinary student. Then one day, a marquis suddenly fell out of a tree, and when she opened her eyes, she found herself thrown into a ridiculous plot. The sewing machine could predict the future, the wall spirit could act and talk, and paper-crane comments floated endlessly by:

[“Gu Xingzhi is online! Your heart-flutter score +3!”]

[“Shen Ruzhi is tracking your location. Watch out for a sneak attack from behind.”]

She thought it was just a story about lying flat in ancient times and having a baby, but the plot kept twisting in unexpected directions

· Gu Xingzhi, a cold, unhinged marquis, clearly shared none of her values, yet brought her breakfast every day and protected her and the child. His tough exterior and soft heart were enough to make anyone fall for him. Their grievances stretched across more than ten lifetimes.

· Shen Ruzhi, her colleague from the future, came with a mission to “take her back.” He kept insisting she was “a temporal anomaly,” yet beneath the moonlight, his heart was full of conflicting emotions.

· Grandmother Gu stayed quietly in her grand estate, watching the child in Xiaoman’s arms as she said, “My little grandson.”

· A fake imperial consort set up a stall in the market, while the real one hunted from behind the scenes. Whether the “sewing machine prophecies” were true or false was anyone’s guess, and even a baby’s full-month celebration could produce the auspicious spectacle of “paper cranes descending from the heavens”…

When the child turned one month old, a paper crane landed on her shoulder. At last, she understood: she hadn’t transmigrated into a book, nor had she come for anyone else. She was here to discover the true meaning of why she had been “left behind.”

Will she go back?

Will she stay?

Will she choose Gu or Shen?

Who wove the threads of her fate, and can she cut them herself?

This is a tale of transmigration, a struggle between fate and the self,

a lighthearted yet stirring drama with hidden currents.
