Background / History

Lan Meng is the wealthy, highly regarded daughter of the Lan Family and a campus celebrity at Imperial Capital University. She is known as a beautiful, affluent, high-achieving student and serves as the Student Council Vice President. Although she lacks Wu Wei's research talent, she deliberately cultivates the university's elite network and secures the future presidency of the Student Council. 7 26

She and Wang Zixuan grew up together. The Lan Family assigned him to protect her, but his attachment to her became possessive after she fell for his roommate, Wu Wei. 12

In the original future timeline, Lan Meng becomes an Awakened whose Dream Stealing Ability is exceptionally effective against Heart Demons. Wu Wei helps her develop this power, and she serves among his most capable partners. Their families had also arranged an engagement: Lan Tian had long supported Lin Shen's research, leaving Lin Shen indebted to the Lan Family. 17

After powerful enemies reverse time and space in an attempt to kill the future Wu Wei while he is still weak, Lan Meng returns to the past with a mission to warn and protect him. She initially conceals this knowledge, intervening within Wang Zixuan's dreamscape to steer dangers away from Wu Wei. 16 19

Appearance

Lan Meng is consistently described as an exceptionally beautiful young woman with a striking face and a glamorous, curvaceous figure. Her wealth and status reinforce her image as Imperial Capital University's “campus celebrity.” 7 18

• Stunning, refined appearance and “gorgeous figure.” 7 18
• Frequently wears custom-made clothing and has access to private skincare services. 40
• Carries herself with the polished bearing expected of a Lan Family heiress and Student Council officer. 26 37

Personality

Lan Meng is persistent, emotionally direct, and unashamed of pursuing Wu Wei despite his repeated rejections. Her confidence is often mixed with insecurity; she resorts to empty threats, teasing, and manipulation when straightforward pursuit fails. 7 18 19

She is more perceptive and ambitious than her early “goddess” image suggests. Lan Meng recognizes her own limitations beside Wu Wei and Qin Yunhai, but actively seeks growth rather than withdrawing from them. She believes that remaining close to Wu Wei will elevate her abilities and outlook. 23 25

Although she can be calculating, she is protective of those she considers important. She warns Wu Wei of danger, advocates for Wang Zixuan's potential value against Heart Demons, worries about Qin Yunhai's reaction to Chi Yu's betrayal, and assists Wu Wei's investigation into Zhao Xin. 11 19 25 39

Abilities & Skills

Dream Stealing Ability

Lan Meng's innate ability allows her to enter and influence dreams. Its mental effects directly oppose Heart Demons, which manipulate people by amplifying their desires.

• Can infiltrate dreamscapes and subtly guide a target's thoughts. 16 39
• Counteracts Wang Zixuan's Dream Builder ability. 19
• Naturally restrains Heart Demon influence and is one of the few people able to resist such powers without external tools. 17
• Used Zhao Xin's dreams to observe his behavior and test whether he had been affected by a Heart Demon. 39
• Her present body is not fully adapted to her future strength, and she avoids exposing too much power while Heart Demons remain active. 18

Social and Strategic Acumen

Lan Meng compensates for limited research talent through connections, resources, and practical judgment.

• Serves as Student Council Vice President and positions herself to become its next president. 26
• Understands the value of elite networks to the Lan Family's long-term influence. 26
• Recognizes inconsistencies in Zhao Xin's public persona and correctly suspects that his pursuit of her is not genuine. 36
• Uses family resources to assist Wu Wei's investigations rather than relying on supernatural power alone. 39 40

Resources

• Lan Family wealth — Lan Meng does not track a conventional allowance, uses family cards freely, wears custom clothing, and has meals delivered by a family driver. 40
• Lan Family advanced AI — Obtains permission to use the family's powerful artificial intelligence to analyze Zhao Xin's motives and possible future behavior. 39 40
• Lan Family influence — Her family wealth and connections can affect access to institutions such as Night Emperor Academy. 18
• Student Council network — A major source of connections among Imperial Capital University's elite students. 26

Relationships

• Wu Wei — Her arranged fiancé and the person she openly pursues. In the future, she becomes one of his most capable partners after he enhances her ability. 7 17 25
• Lan Tian — Her father, a powerful Lan Family figure who strongly supports her relationship with Wu Wei and grants her access to family resources. 40 41
• Lin Shen — Wu Wei's mother; Lan Tian's longstanding support of her research led to the engagement between Lan Meng and Wu Wei. 17
• Wang Zixuan — Childhood acquaintance and former Lan Family-assigned protector. His obsession with Lan Meng and awakening of Dream Builder turn him against Wu Wei. 12 19
• Zhao Xin — Student Council President whose repeated public confessions frustrate her. Lan Meng suspects that his affection for her is an act and later helps expose his fixation on Wu Wei. 36 38 40
• Qin Yunhai — Wu Wei's close friend and intellectual equal. Lan Meng assists in discussing Chi Yu's betrayal and often tries to mediate between the two men. 21 24 25

Story Role / Major Arcs

Pursuit of Wu Wei

Lan Meng repeatedly approaches Wu Wei at Imperial Capital University, attempting to confess, invite him to dinner, and earn his attention. His blunt dismissal of her creates jealousy among Kuang Zhiguo, Wang Zixuan, and Zhao Xin. 7 8 12

Time-Reversal Warning

After Wu Wei realizes that his dormmates' hostility is too convenient to be natural, Lan Meng reveals that she came from the future. She explains that enemy powerhouses reversed time and space, implanted hostility toward Wu Wei in vulnerable people, and forced his allies to send her back as a warning. 16 19

Heart Demon Countermeasure

Lan Meng explains the Heart Demons' ability to magnify desire and influence people without their awareness. Because her Dream Stealing Ability naturally counters them, she identifies Wang Zixuan's and Zhao Xin's abnormal behavior as possible signs of manipulation. 16 17 39

Zhao Xin Investigation

After Zhao Xin stages a public confession, Lan Meng uses Wu Wei as a shield by claiming he is her boyfriend. Wu Wei dislikes being manipulated, but Lan Meng later reveals that she entered Zhao Xin's dreams to observe him. She then arranges for the Lan Family AI to analyze Zhao Xin, confirming that his pursuit of her conceals an obsession with Wu Wei. 38 39 40 41
