The Gears of Fate

Eighteen-year-old Jiang Xia, a girl from the slums, fails the college entrance exam and loses her only chance to challenge her fate.

Just as she despairs at a future whose end she can already see, the boy she has always adored, Lin Feng, the most promising young man in the neighborhood, is murdered in an attack at the alley entrance one night on his way home. The light in Jiang Xia's heart goes out forever.

Yet at that very moment, the wheels of fate begin to turn. A little over a month later, a bombshell announcement about "urban redevelopment" hits the small city.

Overnight, everyone's fate changes.

Years later, Jiang Xia is middle-aged and has risen through the social ranks along with the city.

One day, after a class reunion, she walks alone along the river when someone suddenly attacks her.

When she wakes, she finds herself back in the summer she was eighteen.

With a second chance at life, what will she do differently?
