Year 2025. A pink car speeding on the elevated highway encountered a series of accidents. Jiang Xiaoyuan in the car was thrown off the bridge with the vehicle, and the situation was extremely critical.

In 2012, Qi Lian, his face covered in blood, pleaded desperately with the doctor to save his friend Xu Jingyang. He was informed that surgery in such a condition carried risks, but as a long-distance runner aiming to join the provincial team, the best option was rehabilitation training. Qi Lian lowered his head, his eyes filled with incomprehensible darkness.

On the hospital rooftop, Qi Lian made a phone call, and Xu Jingyang, who was originally in a wheelchair, suddenly disappeared. In 2025, just three days before the lighthouse system activation.

Wealthy heiress Jiang Xiaoyuan did not go to her family's company but went to a bar to have fun. She wanted to introduce her new boyfriend, Huo Baiyu, to her friends. He was a Stanford graduate and not accustomed to such occasions. Jiang Xiaoyuan's friends teased him, insisting he join them for a drink. Jiang Xiaoyuan, displeased, intervened, but her friends hinted that they were looking forward to a spectacle. Soon, Jiang Xiaoyuan witnessed the shattering of his innocent image, orchestrated by that girl taking photos. However, Jiang Xiaoyuan noticed that the girl was manipulating the situation. She didn't fully trust Huo Baiyu, but 70% of the orders in his advertising company were referrals from her, and he dared not betray her.

Jiang Xiaoyuan's friend Feng Ruixue opened a café with her help, and business visibly improved. They both wore the same ribbon that day, but Jiang Xiaoyuan could tell that Feng Ruixue's was fake. She advised her not to buy counterfeit goods. To help Feng Ruixue expand her business, Jiang Xiaoyuan gave her company's afternoon tea and gifted her a new scarf. However, Feng Ruixue couldn't ignore the gossip among the employees. It wasn't until Jiang Xiaoyuan had Huo Baiyu take Feng Ruixue home that she discovered their secret relationship. Feng Ruixue first begged for mercy, then hysterically accused and ridiculed out of jealousy. She begged Jiang Xiaoyuan not to withdraw her investment, as doing so would be akin to forcing her to die. But Jiang Xiaoyuan couldn't accept betrayal; she would not allow it.

That night, Feng Ruixue disappeared. Jiang Xiaoyuan felt responsible for her apparent suicide, but unable to reach her father, she asked her special assistant for help. The special assistant asked her strange questions, such as whether she liked herself in this world and why she came to this world. The assistant gave Jiang Xiaoyuan a phone, instructing her to use it for matters concerning Feng Ruixue, as some of her statements could be used against her in the future.

Fifteen minutes before the lighthouse system activation, Jiang Xiaoyuan received a call from the assistant, saying that Feng Ruixue had been found, but the situation was extremely complex. He asked her to rush from the Cross-River Bridge to Pier 13 within fifteen minutes. On the way to Pier 13, anxious and in a hurry, Jiang Xiaoyuan got into a car accident. She and the car plunged into the river. In a situation deemed worthless, Jiang Xiaoyuan logged into the lighthouse system and began this strange journey through a certain passage. Meanwhile, Qi Lian received a signal. After so many years, Xu Jingyang, is it you?
