Lin Zhiwan grew up in a loving orphanage, protected by the world's gentle kindness. She became mild-mannered, kind, patient, and accommodating, but lacked the edge she needed to stand up for herself.
That very kindness became a fatal weakness once she entered the workplace. She couldn't say no, worked tirelessly, and habitually gave way to others and put up with their behavior, only to be exploited by her coworkers. They stole credit for her work and left her to take the blame, all while disguising their schemes as friendly concern. The unrelenting grind left her trapped in a spiral of self-doubt, with no one aware of all the grievances she carried.
With reality in shambles, Myriad Immortal Journey became her only refuge. But her deep-rooted timidity followed her into the game, where she remained soft-hearted and trusting, repeatedly betrayed and killed by vile NPCs. The double torment of reality and virtual life trapped her in a dark mire of self-denial.
Then Shen Muyan, brave and upright, entered her world, pained by all the hurt and grievances she'd endured. He gave her a special place in his heart, stood up for her and had her back, and drove away the gloom around her with his warmth and kindness.
After enduring life's twists and turns and one trial after another, Lin Zhiwan broke free from her cycle of self-doubt, shed her timidity and sensitivity, and learned to stand firm and be brave. In the end, she and Shen Muyan chose each other, stayed by each other's side year after year, and found a tender, fulfilling life together.
