Two male protagonists
Shen Yanli has been dealt an especially cruel hand by fate. Both his lives have been filled with hardship. In his previous life, he met a tragic end amid endless darkness and suffering, leaving the world with a heart full of regret and resentment. After being reborn, he was the real young master reclaimed by the Prime Minister's household, yet he still couldn't escape fate's cruel games. Disabled and unable to get around easily, he should have been cherished by his family, but the prime minister and his wife treated him with cold indifference. Though the Prime Minister's residence seemed prosperous, his life there was difficult and oppressive, and he never felt the warmth of home.
Bai Heng, a nine-tailed fox who had cultivated for a thousand years, shared a bond with Shen Yanli from their previous life. Back then, Shen Yanli had failed to return Bai Heng's deep love, and the two had missed their chance to spend their lives together. That regret became a heavy shackle that bound Bai Heng. Later, carrying the child he had with Shen Yanli, who was two years old, he spent five hundred long years crossing countless worlds and searching tirelessly through the vast sea of humanity.
At last, Bai Heng found traces of Shen Yanli in this life. When he saw Shen Yanli again, memories of the past came rushing back like a tide. Seeing Shen Yanli still enduring hardship broke Bai Heng's heart. He secretly vowed that no matter what, he would stay by Shen Yanli's side until old age and make up for every regret from the past. So Bai Heng, child in tow, appeared before Shen Yanli without hesitation. A love spanning species and time began anew in this complicated world. What trials would they face in this life, and would they finally find happiness? Everything remained unknown...
