Xiao Daidzhao

Growing up with eccentric materialistic parents who left him in the care of his grandfather for a job overseas, Zhang Heng had learned to adapt and be unfettered by the oddities and challenges in life. But he would soon learn the baffling truth about the world he thought he knew when one day at midnight time froze and he found himself in a world so quiet and still it was deafening. That night, he discovered that he had 24 hours more than everybody else and thus, marked the beginning of his adventures. The mysteries surrounding his newfound ability only deepened when a strange old man claimed to have given Zhang Heng that ‘gift of time’ and recruited the young man to participate in a cryptic ‘life-changing’ game on his behalf. Little did Zhang Heng know that accepting those terms meant embroiling himself in many versions of reality and exposing himself to the hidden secrets of the world—a decision he could never undo.

48 Hours a Day

In the following few days, Zhang Heng didn't reencounter anymore weird events, and Jia Jia didn't look for him again either. However, an unfamiliar WeChat account added him as a friend. The unknown person then sent him an address with a side note, 'Contact me if you change your mind.'

Zhang Heng had been actually doubting the identity of Jia Jia of the checkpoint for a long time. Judging by her conversations with the uncle in beach pants, it was pretty obvious the two weren't superior and subordinate, nor were they in a cooperative relationship. On the contrary, Jia Jia appeared to be the dominant one.

Besides, the things that the beach pants uncle said vaguely revealed some clues that Jia Jia wasn't actually human. 'Jia Jia' needed to find a partner every 20 years, and when he called her succubus that day, her true identity was thus confirmed.
