Lin Feng is the most inconspicuous low-level employee in the city - he earns a meager salary and is framed by his colleagues to take credit for his work. His father is seriously ill and is hospitalized but he cannot pay for the operation. Even his girlfriend of three years turned away because he had "no future". Just when he was standing on the rooftop of the hospital and on the verge of despair, he unexpectedly awakened the power of "turning back time by three minutes": he could withdraw the mistakenly signed overlord contract, liquidate his position before the stock market plummeted, avoid workplace traps in advance, and even regain life-saving time when his father had an accident.
From using 3 minutes to make up for mistakes at work, to accumulating the first pot of gold with supernatural powers; from exposing the conspiracy of colleagues, to confronting the mysterious organization that secretly hunts people with supernatural powers; from protecting a seriously ill father, to meeting partners and lovers who also have special abilities. Lin Feng gradually discovered that his special powers were no accident. His father's "serious illness", his missing grandfather, and even the unusual events in this city all contained secrets that spanned decades. When the villain attempts to use his superpowers to tamper with the timeline and control the world, Lin Feng must break through the "3-minute" limit and use the glimmer of light to look back again and again to support the future of those around him. From a loser that everyone despises, he must live his life as a "guardian of time" who protects the city.
