Young hunter Shen Yan rescues a small white fox, A Xue, who can speak and hear human hearts, on Snowy Ridge. As they spend time together, A Xue shifts from constant guards to gradually trusting Shen Yan, while her mind-reading ability continuously pulls her into village rumors and the mystery of her identity. With the old mountain deity shrine, red string bells, and mysterious thoughts gradually uncovering past events, she discovers that reading human hearts does not equal seeing through true feelings. Ultimately, A Xue learns to stop relying on mind-reading to judge good and evil, chooses to trust the companion by her side, and embarks on the road home together with Shen Yan.
