In everyone's eyes, Shu Manman is a quiet, bland girl.
At just eighteen, she drowned and died, thinking nobody would care.
But as a ghost after death, she watched her father fall ill and her mother lose her mind, and regretted everything.
She woke up to find herself back in 1995. She was ten years old, and there was still time to change everything.
Shu Manman set off on her short legs toward a little house in a remote part of the countryside.
The person inside was Ji Chen. They were originally supposed to meet three years later.
He would call her father "Big Brother," and she would call him "Brother."
At the end of her previous life, Ji Cheng came back, surrounded by a crowd.
His expression solemn, he knelt before the memorial hall in silence.
For many years afterward, Ji Cheng took her place and cared for her parents until their deaths.
That day, ten-year-old Shu Manman pushed open the gate to fifteen-year-old Ji Cheng's courtyard.
The little girl was fair and soft, sweet and well-behaved, like a young immortal in a painting.
Ji Cheng was chained up, crouched on the ground like a wild dog.
Shu Manman was stunned. She reached out her little hand. Ji Cheng, who she remembered as never smiling but always kind to her, raised his head and fell silent.
Suddenly, he bit down hard on her hand...
Later, in this life, Ji Cheng no longer wanted to be her brother.
