In the shadow of the city, the "ghost contract" tempts people's hearts: some people's fortunes turn around, and some people... Explode and die!
Lu Yueyin, a new assistant in the History Department of Hainan University, had an enchanting red mark on her chest for no apparent reason. The red marks were the painful medals for her to tear apart the flesh-and-blood contract. Now she just wants to remain anonymous, stay away from right and wrong, and be a stable and transparent "person".
However, the mysterious death of the new rich man Chen Fumin involved her and Professor Cui Mingyuan, who studied the history of Linyuan. That unknown past also surfaced.
Thousands of years ago, she was an unpopular concubine in a wealthy family;
The boy she once rescued eventually became a general who protected her side;
Her deepest bond was with her best friend, a fox demon who was so handsome that he risked his life for her.
In troubled times, life and death are separated by war.
Thousands of years later, the underworld is pursuing it, "Xuanjian Pavilion" is coveting it, and there are dangers everywhere.
When the shadow of the contract is shrouded again, when the face that spanned thousands of years reappears, when the whereabouts of the lost friend become a mystery...
How does Lu Yueyin, a non-human "social animal" struggling to survive, deal with numerous murderous intentions?
What will be the fate of her thousand-year love affair?
Purpose: To explore multiple propositions of survival, freedom, and emotional destination in a grand time and space context.
