Once upon a time, a song called "Chen Qing" wept blood and told the story of all the grievances and sorrows of all living beings. Wuxian's unruliness, Wangji's forbearance, Wanyin's perseverance, Zishan's struggle... Their fates were intertwined in the bloody storm. Some got what they wanted, some were bruised, and some... Were left with endless regrets.
What if, the gears of fate quietly turn?
If the Wei couple are still alive, then,
Can the unruly Wei Wuxian remain that bright and dazzling young man forever?
Can Lan Wangji, who is forbearing and elegant, be able to face the throbbing in his heart earlier?
Can the hard-spoken and soft-hearted Jiang Wanyin suffer less from the pain of loss and gain more stable protection?
Can the gentle and polite Meng Yao find a real future instead of struggling in the quagmire?
When the source of the tragedy is quietly rewritten, can those souls who once walked alone in the dark night be able to meet each other under the sun, compose a song together, and live in peace for a long time?
This is a story about "if", a story that hopes that they can all be treated gently and finally gain happiness.
