An'an is a three-year-old little girl living at a Taoist temple, and her favorite thing is drinking milk.
Her master told her that she had a loving dad and mom, as well as older brothers and sisters.
But because she was born with a spiritual constitution, so precious it was beyond price, she had to be kept at the temple to suppress it before being brought there.
An'an didn't know what a spiritual constitution was. All she knew was that every night, people claiming to be immortals took turns disturbing her sleep in her dreams, and she was sick and tired of it.
Her master said her parents were not only handsome and beautiful, but also very rich.
Once she turned three, they would come and take her home.
An'an could hardly wait. She wanted to drink lots and lots of milk.
Then, on the day her parents and siblings came to get her, everything went black before her eyes.
It really was black.
All four of them had dark clouds hanging over their heads.
How did that look like a rich family?
An'an burst into tears. It looked like there'd be no formula for her after all.
But her master and fellow disciples couldn't see a thing. Ignoring her pleading gaze, they sent her away.
The sister with the darkest cloud over her head hugged her first, enveloping An'an in a sweet fragrance.
"An'an, here's a gift for you." Then she slipped a gold bracelet onto An'an's wrist.
That night, An'an saw a vision of her sister being drained of her luck by someone while appearing on a variety show, hated by countless people, and eventually murdered.
An'an clenched her little fists. "Sis, I'll go on the show with you!"

The top-tier star, a notorious actress known for being both popular and hated, was going on a variety show with her little sister. Her haters were quick to pounce.
[Get her out of here! Production team, kick her off the show. We want to see a happy life, not a spoiled heiress throwing a tantrum.]
On the day of the live broadcast, the production team deliberately made things difficult, making Shu Siyu carry two huge suitcases by herself along a mountain trail.
The viewers were waiting for Shu Siyu to lose her temper and quit the show.
Just as Shu Siyu looked ready to snap, her little sister stepped forward. "Sis, it's so heavy. Too bad there aren't any tigers or piggies around to help us. Oh! An'an will draw you a Strength Talisman!"
After saying this, she wrote three characters in the air and pressed them onto Shu Siyu. "All done!"
Then the viewers watched Shu Siyu cheerfully haul the suitcases along a ten-mile mountain road.
The next day, she collapsed onto her bed.
[For the little one, Siyu really is a wonderful big sister!]
[I want a big sister like that.]
[Siyu is just too cute.]
Shu Siyu said, "You probably won't believe me, but I really did feel like I was full of strength at the time."
[I get it, I get it! The power of love! The little one's power!]
There were many more incidents like this. Shu Siyu went from a notorious actress everyone hated to a beautiful, silly airhead whom everyone adored.
And the little one became a huge sensation thanks to her supernatural abilities.

During the livestreams, everyone else chatted, ate, and drank.
But over on the little one's side, it was:
[Little one, why has my head been hurting so much lately?]
An'an took a look. [Your great-grandma keeps rubbing something green on top of your head. She says she wants to warn you not to trust Chen Ke just now.]
[Little one, little one, why have I been feeling cold all over lately?]
An'an frowned. [Tsk, your grandpa is full of resentment. He's right beside you, shouting, "Freeze to death, freeze to death!" He's asking why you didn't dress him warmly in the middle of winter. Are you hoping he'll die early so you can get his money?]
[Little one, I've been wondering if I'm possessed by the Three-Body Problem. I keep seeing these six numbers: 677940.]
An'an clenched her little fists, looking anxious. [Go pick up the trash you just threw away! Those numbers are the passcode to the bankbook in your dad's quilt!]
She also helped her dad avoid a disastrous casting choice, turning a TV drama that had been doomed to flop and bankrupt him into a huge hit.
She helped her mom get rid of unwanted suitors, become the richest person in the country, and make a brilliant career for herself.
Her older brother also went from a rebellious teenager to a tech whiz.
At the Oscars, her dad raised his trophy and said, "First of all, I want to thank my little girl."
At a charity gala, her mom hugged An'an tight. "I hope all the children in the world can have a better life."
At a research conference, her proud and unruly older brother turned his face away. "Yeah, thanks, little sis."
Her older sister even stood on the podium to accept her triple-crown Best Actress award and shouted, "An'an, you're my god!"
She took An'an everywhere to show her off. "This is my little girl!"
An'an sighed and shook her head. "Sigh, looks like this family really can't get by without me."
But her grin stretched from ear to ear.
Not only that, the city's police department publicly thanked her on Weibo for helping them find a fugitive who had been on the run for years.
An award-winning actress posted her thanks to An'an: "An'an, thanks to you, I can continue my acting career."
An'an was also the only celebrity followed by the Meteorological Bureau. They sent her a private message: "An'an, it's been dry in a certain area for a long time. Could you bring us some rain?"
Theme: Family is a source of strength, too.
