   Summary

   What if Wei Ying woke up in the past after dying at Nightless City?

   Specifically… on the night before the first day of lectures in Cloud Recess, seven years ago?

   With perfectly concealed panic, Wei Ying decides he’s determined to do it differently this time.

   Enter Lan Zhan.

   Really, Wei Ying might truly lose his mind now.
