Cultural relic restorer Lin Wei, while restoring a strange painting by an unknown female painter from the Ming Dynasty, had a fatal resonance with the soul that had been suppressed for hundreds of years in the painting, and was accidentally bound to the "Life Track Completion System".
The system claims that the person in the painting, Shen Qingci, the lady of the Zhaohua Dynasty, is her "historical mirror image" and is on the verge of destruction due to a serious deviation in her fate. Lin Wei was forced to travel through time and became a lowly maid in Shen's mansion who looked the same as Shen Qingci. Her mission was to "correct" her and bring her back to the "right track" that meets the expectations of the times.
However, when the two "selves" really met under the strict ethics, what Lin Wei saw was not an ancient person who needed to be transformed, but a genius whose talent was bound and his soul was dying. The rationality and rules she was good at were powerless in the face of Shen Qingci's secret resistance that used life as ink. The cold punishment of the system and the eternal flame in Shen Qingci's eyes plunged Lin Wei into a paradox: if you obey the system, you can survive, but you will kill "yourself" with your own hands; if you resist the system, you may be erased by time and space, but you can make the real "me" free.
From suspicion to conspiracy, from pity to deep love, a "narcissism" that spans time and space is sublimated into the most extreme redemption. Together, they planned a huge bet using stunning paintings as weapons. The bet was each other's existence. When Lin Wei finally woke up in modern times, everything seemed like a dream until she discovered their own code that traveled through time and space in the corner of the famous painting in the museum - love has not changed history, but it has made the traces of "me" eternal in the world of "me".
Purpose: The deepest love comes from complete acceptance of oneself, and the greatest redemption is to give the past self the courage to fall in love with the future. The system is a bridge and the third mirror that reflects our souls.
