Lin Jiang and Su Yao broke up. On the seventh day after their breakup, they were trapped in the same elevator. It plunged, and they both lost consciousness.
When Su Yao woke up, she found herself as Shen Wantang, the heroine of the web novel A Mistake in Changning. She had followed the story for over half a year and remembered every chapter by heart: Shen Wantang would be tricked into marriage by Li Mingyuan, Marquis of Changning, stripped of her family's fortune, and used until she died. And the sinister marquis standing before her now had a face she knew all too well.
Lin Jiang. Her ex-boyfriend.
A modern man trapped in a villain's body, and an ex-girlfriend who knew the entire plot. They exchanged a secret signal amid the crowd of guests: she said, "A gathering of heroes," and he replied, "Radishes holding a meeting." In this world, they could trust no one but each other.
Their plan was simple: follow the plot, play their parts, and find a way out. But as the story unfolded, Su Yao began having the same dream again and again: a story that did not belong to the web novel, a tragedy that had happened long ago. In the dream were another "Lin Jiang," another "Su Yao," and a book called The Chronicles of Changning.
Two-thirds of the way through the story, they were injured and fell unconscious. When they woke, the world had changed.
They had returned to their previous lives and uncovered the forgotten past. It turned out that their transmigration, reunion, secret signals, and recognition had never been accidents. Someone had laid the groundwork for all of it much earlier.
By the time they woke in hospital beds, the night the elevator plunged was already over. But something had been rewritten forever in another world.
Three layers of time and space, one reunion.
