A consciousness experiment connects two destinies, inside the book and in reality. Su Nian time-travels into a historical angst novel, becoming a tragic, vicious princess consort. Starting out holding a blood-stained leather whip, facing the scarred crippled prince Gu Yan. To escape a death trap, she discards the whip to make amends, clumsily caring for him, little by little melting his ice-sealed hatred. Gu Yan forsakes the original designated female lead, and with her makes a cross-generation vow in the collapsing novel world. Waking from the dream back to modern times, the historical crippled prince turns out to be a tech CEO confined to a wheelchair. He regards their shared love in the book as a simulated illusion, self-deprecatingly avoiding and refusing to acknowledge it. Those memories of experiencing life and death together are by no means illusory; Su Nian searches every corner of the world, stubbornly determined to let the cross-dimensional deep affection take root and blossom.
