   This is good. Both the male and female leads are strong, and the story involves metaphysics and supernatural abilities. Mu Ge was once a high priestess who could see people's past and future. She accidentally transmigrated to the modern world and was bound to a supernatural system. This world seems peaceful, but it is actually dangerous. The system says: "You're pretty. Bit your lip, blink, and act cute, and the men will help you." The incredibly powerful Mu Ge acted cute, but every time she cried for help, she would instantly defeat countless opponents. The men were dumbfounded: "Who should be crying for help?!" When she first transmigrated to the modern world, Mu Ge's soul was often unstable and would float out of her body. The useless system used teleportation to help her return. The first teleportation moved Mu Ge to Jiang Heng's refrigerator. Jiang Heng looked at the head in the refrigerator: "?" The second time, Mu Ge appeared on the ceiling above Jiang Heng. Jiang Heng looked at the long hair hanging down: "…" The third time, Mu Ge poked her head out from under Jiang Heng's blanket. Jiang Heng looked at her: "… Give me a reason?"
