[A soft-hearted yet strong-willed reborn girl who longs for freedom × a gentle, tsundere God of Fate who protects her in secret]
My name is Ji Li. I’m an ordinary office worker, working from nine to seven, with a dull, lonely life.
One day, I received an antique-looking bookmark from a fortune-teller. The old man who gave it to me predicted that I’d have great luck and meet a benefactor at twenty-seven.
But on my twenty-seventh birthday, what awaited me was a precarious situation at work.
Late that night, I thought back on my lazy, aimless life and felt overwhelmed with regret. So I made a birthday wish: to return to high school and start my life over.
When I woke up, I really had gone back to my first year of high school.
The bookmark seemed to hold some kind of divine power. It had granted my wish and made me the writer of my own life.
For a while, I thought I was the chosen one, until a mysterious transfer student named Ding Yubai appeared in my class, someone who had never existed in my memories.
My script began to fall apart, and strange things started happening all around me.
Ding Yubai told me I had defied the laws of Heaven and changed my fate without permission, and that I would inevitably suffer the consequences.
Who was he, really? Why did he approach me?
Why did he shield me with his own body when the consequences finally struck?
He said, “Do you know? Even as the God of Fate, I can’t control destiny.”
The God of Fate? Did he seek me out because I was an anomaly, disrupting the order of the world?
“Qingluo, you’ve been human for so long. You’ve had your wish fulfilled.”
“But do you still remember me?”
I looked around in confusion. “...Qingluo? Is that me?”
