Sang Jiaojiao works part-time at the Parallel World Stability Management Center. Her daily task is to play NPCs wherever she's sent.
In the cracks between time and space, people keep straying from the course laid out in the history books.
Poor Sang Jiaojiao has to play the cannon fodder: the person who offers the peaches in the story of Two Peaches Killing Three Warriors, the one who tries to stop Liu Bei during his Three Visits to the Thatched Cottage, and the instigator at Mawei Slope.
Her new task: kill someone who is destined to die in history.
Sang Jiaojiao opens her eyes to find herself in a handsome man's bed.
If he doesn't die as history dictates, she has to kill him herself.
The handsome man is quiet, restrained, strong, gentle, and melancholy.
Though history says he must die, he has clearly found a way to protect himself.
And yet, he willingly stays behind instead of escaping.
At their final meeting, he gives Sang Jiaojiao a bitter smile.
"I've lived a lonely life, with no one to care for and no ties to hold me back. Why should I drag you down with me?"
"From now on, never tell anyone..."
"that you once knew Han Xin."
Inside Changle Palace, he dies in a single day.
Outside Changle Palace, she stares blankly at the moon, unable to hold back her tears.
Damn this mission! Damn my boss! I'm done! I'm defecting!
Sang Jiaojiao finds a bug and enters his world, hoping to start over and save him.
But there's a margin of error in the time rift, and she accidentally arrives several years too early...
Sang Jiaojiao is now a girl in her teens.
She looks at the young Han Xin, who has just suffered the humiliation of crawling between someone's legs...
And feels utterly conflicted.
*
The day fifteen-year-old Han Xin endured humiliation, everyone else mocked him, but a young girl took his hand and told him he would become a great hero.
From then on, a little darling lived in his heart.
Though she was always pretending to be some great master and fooling him, he never called her out.
His talents went unrecognized, but meeting her brought a ray of light into his heart.
They shared the same ambitions and built their territory together.
Han Xin always looked at his little darling with pride and affection.
He had no idea that whenever others saw Sang Jiaojiao, they trembled and ran to warn one another:
Help! It's that she-devil!
*
But Han Xin keeps going on about standing together with his brothers and being loyal to the king...
He's a devoted loyalist, but to someone else.
How can she put up with that?
Sang Jiaojiao lets loose, urging Han Xin every day to declare himself king.
She's determined to win his heart!
Han Xin is the strongest, and so is she!
The military power and the throne are theirs for the taking!
Anyone fighting for power or bullying Han Xin will be crushed!
Charge!
Only, one day she realizes
that perhaps there's more to it than simply standing together with his brothers.
He also wants to lie in bed with her...?
