Lin Yun, 36 years old, a widower, a mid-level manager in a private enterprise, is a single father, who has recently felt that he is encountering a mid-life crisis.
Professionally, he faced adversity; domestically, he was in a cold war with his 14-year-old daughter; physically, he suffered from periarthritis and spoke daily of his agony.
In the past few days, he had also uncovered a secret — his daughter was being a "Magic" girl.
With the body of a young maiden, she battled extraordinary monsters and protected the city from attacks — this is the common perception of a "Magic" girl.
But he was very aware that being a "Magic" girl came with life-threatening dangers.
Should he stop her, or respect his daughter’s choice and find other ways to protect her?
Gazing at the Heart Flower in his wardrobe, now covered in dust, Lin Yun, the former "Magic" girl who retired 19 years ago, was facing the third major decision of his life.

Upon opening the door, she saw Bai Jingxuan standing outside, clutching a pillow.


"What's the matter?" she asked, lowering her voice as much as possible.


"I can't sleep," Bai Jingxuan replied in a whisper.


Emerald Sparrow glanced at the wall clock; it was already one in the morning. "Is something bothering you?"


Bai Jingxuan didn't speak, her eyes just pleadingly fixed on Emerald Sparrow.


It's hard for anyone to withstand such a gaze for long, so Emerald Sparrow had no choice but to step aside and let Bai Jingxuan in.


She somewhat helplessly asked, "What's really going on?"
