On her birthday night, Lin Xiaoman, an office worker being PUA'd to the breaking point, runs into Gu Shiyan—her ex-boyfriend who vanished five years ago after saying, "I'll go buy milk tea" and never returned. Now he's in a suit with gold-rimmed glasses, claiming to be a "low-tier system binder from the cultivation world"? To make it even crazier, a Q-version system in a Taoist robe pops up on her phone, forcing her to complete absurd tasks like "make Gu Shiyan eat your dark cuisine without frowning" and "steal his ancient immortal sword as a selfie stick," saying it will help her "counterattack and rekindle old love." On one side, she deals with difficult clients and credit-stealing colleagues; on the other, her "cultivator ex" always hands her hot milk tea made with immortal magic when she's falling apart, while the system pushes her to "cause trouble." The truth behind Gu Shiyan's disappearance unfolds: he was dragged into the cultivation world by the system to find the "Soul-Gathering Lamp" that could save her past life, and he drew her portrait every day for five years. When she finally asks, "Why did you disappear?" Gu Shiyan takes out a milk tea coupon he's kept for five years, his ears red: "That day, I was afraid you'd wait too long, so I ran three streets to buy milk tea, but the system pulled me away... Now, I've brought all the sugar from the cultivation world. Do you want to drink milk tea with me again?" The satisfaction of workplace counterattacks, the sweetness and slight bitterness of reuniting with an old love, the system's chatty complaints, and Gu Shiyan's clumsiness when he burns instant noodles with immortal magic—all turn the regret of "long separation" into a sweet soup of "no sorrow." Because the most touching counterattack is someone secretly turning your past regrets into present sugar.
