The wheel of fate started turning after a destined encounter in a quiet little town—a place where no restraining orders exist and everyone lives in supposed peace.
Nineteen-year-old Wei Sheng has just returned from abroad to her rural hometown, settling into the ordinary life of a high school student. Now that her hearing has been restored, she can finally take in the vibrant atmosphere of her once-familiar neighborhood, which has grown into a lively place.
One evening, she watches a striking stage performer named Bu Luo Xu, who plays the role of a many-eyed beast. The sight stirs a memory—Wei Sheng recalls befriending a similar creature in the forest as a child, one that shared the same name.
She dismisses it as mere coincidence.
Or is it something more?
