Through the necklace’s gem, she gains access to a futuristic marketplace where she can trade treasures for instant deliveries—useful items in a world stuck between tradition and magic. But there's a catch: she must complete a mysterious mission before the gem’s power fades. If she fails, she’ll be trapped in the parallel realm forever—and history as we know it may change beyond repair.

The world as they knew it was under the control of a higher group of individuals who had a plan... a vision for the world. A vision they didn't feel the need to share with the public. 26-year-old John Billoway was a part of this vision, tied ever so tightly to it in a way he couldn't comprehend and each time he gets so close to breaking out of the fabricated world- he hears a thud and then a reset.

Fu Xiaoxiao transmigrates into a book and immediately faces the crisis of being sent to the countryside. As the unloved middle child, her younger sister is the one meant to go — but her mother transfers her job to the sister instead. A disaster of a start. To avoid being sent away, she has to marry within seven days. She meets a few ordinary men and decides she'd rather go to the countryside.
