Love Is an Accident – Xing Fei, Xu Kaicheng

In this world, there are many strange and extraordinary stories compiled into books, among them are tales that tell of remarkable connections in a diverse universe. One day, an energy stone from the cosmos split into two and fell into two different worlds. One piece was obtained by Li Chuyue, a girl from the modern technological world. The other piece landed in the country of Yu, in the Xiazhou continent. These meteorites, falling into different worlds, created a passage between them due to the energy and magnetic field triggered by lightning.

Yu was a world of constant strife in the martial arts realm. An Jingzhao, the young master of Yunwei Mountain Villa, had just defeated the demonic sect and was facing an assassination attempt by the second villa master's henchmen. The sounds of their battle traveled through the passage created by the energy stone, reaching Li Chuyue's room. Meanwhile, Li Chuyue's voice and belongings also ended up in An Jingzhao's room. Originally thought to be just an accident, it turned out that Li Chuyue had arrived in the country of Yu in her sleep and was mistaken by An Jingzhao as an assassin sent by the second villa master. Li Chuyue couldn't explain herself, and she desperately wanted to return home, but there was no way to seek help.

An Jingzhao suspected that Li Chuyue was sent as an assassin by the second villa master and interrogated her sternly. Li Chuyue's answers were very strange, leaving An Jingzhao utterly puzzled. By a stroke of luck, Li Chuyue discovered that An Jingzhao had an unsolved puzzle - "how to make water flow backward." Li Chuyue cleverly provided the answer, giving An Jingzhao the opportunity to meet the divine healer, Luo Shenyi. An Jingzhao was impressed by her intelligence but still didn't give up on investigating whether she was an assassin. He used tactics to question Li Chuyue, who was very candid. Li Chuyue's innocent and adorable appearance dispelled An Jingzhao's suspicions. An Jingzhao proposed that Li Chuyue must cooperate with him to evade the second villa master's spies. If successful, An Jingzhao would allow Li Chuyue to search for a way back home in his room.

The two ventured into the outskirts, and Li Chuyue believed that staying with An Jingzhao would be life-threatening. So, she pretended to act alongside An Jingzhao while secretly searching for an opportunity to escape. Unfortunately, despite her various tactics, An Jingzhao saw through them all with just one glance.

Finally, Li Chuyue found an opportunity to escape but was pursued by agents sent by Bai Zhi, who had always had feelings for An Jingzhao. She narrowly escaped death, but An Jingzhao arrived in the nick of time to rescue her. He also realized that Bai Zhi was being willful and urged her to restrain herself.

An Jingzhao pretended to go on an outing to the outskirts but was actually going to meet the divine healer. The master of Yunwei Mountain Villa was An Jingzhao's father, and he had been feeling lethargic recently. An Jingzhao suspected that the second villa master had poisoned him, so he secretly sought out the divine healer for treatment. An Jingzhao's sincere wish for peace in the martial world moved the divine healer, who agreed to see the villa's master. An Jingzhao arranged for everyone to create a diversion during the old lady's birthday banquet. He and Li Chuyue drew the attention of the second villa master, while his brother, An Jingling, took advantage of the lax security to secretly bring the divine healer to diagnose and treat their father. They managed to deceive the second villa master without any mishaps.

However, the second villa master coveted the villa and remained highly vigilant. During the old lady's birthday banquet, he proposed a marriage for his adopted daughter, Bai Zhi, hoping she would marry into Yunwei Mountain Villa.

The old lady understood that the second villa master only wanted to keep an eye on An Jingzhao but had no choice. At a critical moment, An Jingzhao pointed out that Li Chuyue was actually Miss Han Qingwan from the Han Water Sect, and the two of them had long been engaged. The old lady also chimed in with agreement. Faced with the second villa master's suspicion and tests, Li Chuyue cooperated with the old lady and acknowledged her role as An Jingzhao's fiancée, successfully diffusing the crisis. However, to further reduce the second villa master's suspicion, she had to start preparing for the wedding.

In order to leave as soon as possible before the big wedding, Li Chuyue, based on her previous experiences, deduced that the portal connecting the two worlds was in An Jingzhao's room. She tried various means to get the chance to use An Jingzhao's room but failed to return successfully.

The divine healer diagnosed the villa's master and prescribed medication, confirming that the second villa master had indeed been using a slow-acting poison to harm the villa's master. An Jingzhao and the old lady discussed the matter and decided that since the second villa master held significant power within the villa, they needed to carefully plan their actions against him. For now, they could only secretly provide medicine to the villa's master to help him recover his health.

The elderly lady noticed that her grandson had feelings for Li Chuyue and wanted to help them be together, so she summoned the two of them to her courtyard to pray for blessings on the Double Third Festival. Bai Zhi, upon hearing the news, was furious. The second master of the estate instigated Bai Zhi to put a drug in the banquet, causing chaos in the marriage arrangements. Bai Zhi willingly went along with it, but an unexpected incident occurred, and she accidentally drank poisoned wine, narrowly escaping a serious mishap.

On the day of the grand wedding, the second master of the estate sent people to pretend to be remnants of the demonic sect and attack the guests. In reality, they planned to replace the bride and assassinate An Jingzhao. An Jingzhao had already sensed this and had moved ahead of time, successfully avoiding the danger. He also traced the assassins back to the second master's secret organization, defeating them and temporarily preventing the second master from taking rash actions.

However, on the night of the wedding, An Jingzhao and Li Chuyue suddenly returned to the modern world. An Jingzhao was greatly surprised, while Li Chuyue deeply regretted missing the designer competition. They speculated that there might be some sort of passage between the two worlds, but they didn't know the conditions under which it would open.

An Jingzhao found everything around him to be very unfamiliar and intriguing. He spoke and acted in the manner of a young estate owner out of habit, leaving Li Chuyue's family baffled. Li Chuyue stepped in to explain, saying that the person dressed in ancient attire, An Jingzhao, was an actor who had gotten too immersed in his role. This temporarily diverted her family's inquiries. An Jingzhao wanted to try a way to return to Shangyu, but Li Chuyue didn't want to get involved in the turmoil of Yunwei Mountain Estate again and refused An Jingzhao's request. So, An Jingzhao had to settle down temporarily.

However, as Li Chuyue had not been to work for a few days, she faced difficulties with her boss. An Jingzhao came to her rescue and, due to a twist of fate, ended up becoming a temporary advertising model for the clothing company where Li Chuyue worked. Despite feeling uncomfortable, he managed to complete the photo shoot with Li Chuyue's help. In return, Li Chuyue promised to help An Jingzhao try the method to return to Shangyu.

Li Chuyue received the opportunity for an internal recommendation to become Assistant to the designer, Teacher Qiao. However, Teacher Qiao required Li Chuyue to provide a distinctive design proposal. After much contemplation, Li Chuyue, inspired by the Shangyu style, decided to incorporate traditional Chinese elements into her design, which earned her the appreciation of Teacher Qiao and Gu Qingfeng from the design department.

Meanwhile, An Jingzhao was deeply concerned about Yunwei Mountain Estate and was determined to return to Shangyu. However, despite their various attempts, they couldn't find a way to open the passage between the two worlds. Because An Jingzhao had helped her multiple times, Li Chuyue agreed to let him stay until they found a way back. An Jingzhao coincidentally saved Chuyue's younger brother, Chuyang, which earned him Chuyang's goodwill and allowed him to gradually adapt to this world while trying more methods.

On the side of Yunwei Mountain Estate, as An Jingzhao had not been seen for a long time, the elderly lady was anxiously searching for him. She publicly claimed that the young master was feeling under the weather and wouldn't be receiving guests in the near future. The second master grew suspicious and tried to find any clues.

An Jingzhao learned from Li Chuyue that she had once come into contact with the ring in Gu Qingfeng's possession. He suspected that the gateway between the two worlds might be related to the ring. So, he followed Li Chuyue and Gu Qingfeng, trying to create an opportunity to access Gu Qingfeng's ring. However, their efforts did not open the gateway.

During their quest to help Li Chuyue's father retrieve an antique vase, they stumbled upon an extraordinary sword with the inscription "Shangyu" and a single character below it: "Ming." Unfortunately, they couldn't obtain the sword due to urgent circumstances. Upon closer inspection, they noticed a peculiar stone in An Jingzhao's bedroom that resembled the meteorite Li Chuyue had brought back. They suspected that the meteorite might be the key clue to opening the gateway.

An Jingzhao hoped that Li Chuyue would return to Shangyu with him, while Gu Qingfeng showed a keen interest in Li Chuyue, even attending a family banquet at her house. In his urgency, An Jingzhao confessed his feelings to Li Chuyue. Initially, Li Chuyue had thought that An Jingzhao only wanted to go home and didn't have romantic feelings for her, so she was unsure how to respond to his confession.

An Jingzhao and Li Chuyue deduced that a thunderstorm would trigger the energy stones and create a gateway between the two worlds. They decided to verify this theory when the next thunderstorm arrived. An Jingzhao gave Li Chuyue some time to respond to his confession. Coincidentally, it was Li Chuyue's birthday, and both her colleagues and An Jingzhao had prepared birthday gifts for her. However, Li Chuyue was unsure how to face An Jingzhao's sincere feelings.

At this moment, Li Chuyue discovered that her design proposal had been plagiarized by Gu Qingfeng. She realized that Gu Qingfeng had approached her from the beginning with the intention of obtaining her design. While disappointed, Li Chuyue wasn't heartbroken. She realized that she did have feelings for An Jingzhao. To protect An Jingzhao from harm, Li Chuyue took good care of him and invited him to work as a model for the company's magazine photo shoot, hoping to spend more time with him.

An Jingzhao completed the magazine photo shoot and also went to an amusement park and a movie theater with Li Chuyue. They even went camping in the countryside. He wanted to create more memories for the two of them at places Li Chuyue liked. After having some drinks, Li Chuyue confessed her feelings for An Jingzhao, but she had no recollection of it the next day.

Li Chuyue was busy with work but couldn't stop thinking about her growing affection for An Jingzhao. However, she knew that An Jingzhao belonged to another world and would eventually have to return to Yunwei Mountain Estate. Despite her feelings, she decided to restrain herself, take care of An Jingzhao's injuries, and send him back. She couldn't afford to let her emotions get the best of her. An Jingzhao thought it over carefully and told Li Chuyue to wait for him to resolve the crisis at Yunwei Mountain Estate. He promised to return to her afterward.

At this moment, Yunwei Mountain Estate was indeed in crisis. The second master had confirmed the news of An Jingzhao's disappearance and immediately started the next phase of his plan, intending to create the false impression that An Jingzhao had died while missing.
