Everyone who met Ye Tang once said that she was a rare genius, a genius who combined talent and beauty.
Everyone thought she had a bright future, but she began to give up on herself and let herself go.
One day, she was shipwrecked and transmigrated into the body of Ye Tang, a 19-year-old autistic girl with the same name.
She fell from a high-and-mighty princess to the lowest level of commoners.
She decided to rise up and transform herself from a top student to a genius, no longer a good-for-nothing playboy.
But why did the boy she had always treated like a younger brother recognize her?
Luo Xingchuan: "Tangtang, be good, call me brother."
Ye Tang: "Holy shit! *$#…"
...
The first person Luo Xingchuan saw when he opened his eyes after being born was Ye Tang, the older girl from next door who was ten years older than him.
He once thought that the mountains and rivers were vast and the future was long, but he never expected that she would leave before he even grew up.
For the next ten years, he lived a muddled life and became a spoiled brat. When he saw the truck driving towards him, he smiled easily.
When he opened his eyes again, he was back ten years ago, at the starting point of everything.
When he met Ye Tang again, he said to her, "This time, you are the kite in my hand. No matter how high the kite flies, the string is still in my hand."

The story takes place in the fictional Chinese kingdom of Caiyun. According to legend, a young man, aided by the power of the Eight Immortals, founded Caiyun. Consequently, Caiyun's territory was divided into eight provinces: Hongzhou, Huangzhou, Bizhou, Lanzhou, Zizhou, Heizhou, Baizhou, and Chazhou. Approximately 600 years ago, the king of the time ordered the nobles of each province to adopt one of these eight colors as their surnames (for example, the Marquis of Lanzhou became Lan, the Marquis of Hongzhou became Hong, and so on). Commoners were prohibited from sharing surnames with these eight marquises. Consequently, those bearing these eight colors were considered the most aristocratic of the nobles. Furthermore, because the Marquis of Zizhou, where the capital was located, also served as king, the Zi family became the royal family's surname. Despite being born into the prestigious Hong family, Hong Xiuli lived in poverty. She had to work extensively to support her family. Having experienced the turmoil of the throne struggle as a child, she deeply understood the suffering of the people. From a young age, she diligently studied, hoping to pass the imperial examination, become an official, assist the king, and build a prosperous and peaceful nation. However, as a woman, she cannot take the imperial examination. One day, Xiu Li accepts a high-paying commission from Grand Tutor Xiao and enters the harem as a noble concubine to teach and assist the incompetent emperor. This opportunity leads Xiu Li to a career as an official, and she encounters a variety of people.
On an seemingly ordinary day, a driverless bus carrying Kong Linzhang, Wei Zhiyuan, and a group of cursed individuals arrives at the Black Haunted House. Every so often, a blood-red portal within the house forcibly pulls the group into a terrifying world to carry out horrific events. Kong Linzhang and Wei Zhiyuan, as witnesses, are filled with intense regret and resentment, and unexpectedly gain the ability to travel through time. During their travels, they foresee crucial clues using information asymmetry, but their lack of understanding of the rules of time travel hinders their actions. Meanwhile, a mysterious villainous organization, determined to prevent the truth from being revealed, constantly sabotages the protagonists' search for clues. The protagonists must not only contend with the harsh environment and unknown threats beyond the Haunted House and the blood-red portal, but also break the curse within a limited time. In the process, they are forced to choose sides with some of the cursed individuals due to ideological differences, creating a conflict between factions. The protagonists are also misled by the villains, leading to misunderstandings and misguided actions. Even after successfully breaking the curse, they discover that the "butterfly effect" has caused irreversible consequences, and the victory comes at a heavy price.
Seek your own path, keep searching, and you'll find the way of humanity. Water and mountains may be crossed, but the path remains. May Heaven never grow old, and may my hometown forever be well. I see only green mountains, yet everywhere they are pierced by rain and wind. The road to my hometown seems endless. The Way of the Taoist, the Way of the Gods—I seek the way of humanity myself. Demons and monsters all claim to be good, but the winds howl and thunder roars, heaven and earth waile and ghosts cry. Why has the once beautiful land become a sea of blood? The road to my hometown seems like a road of no return. I ask humanity, where can I find the Way? (Although this has been used before, I'll still use it to feel appropriate.)
