Fan Yuan, a tabloid reporter, has experienced nine lives of love.
A car accident knocked the male protagonist's brain apart, but connected nine generations of love. Nine women traveled through the past and the future. Their names all have a flower character in their names, which correspond to apricot blossom, orchid, plum blossom, pomegranate blossom, sunflower, pear blossom, peony, lotus, and chrysanthemum. In a coma, they bloomed like flowers in the male protagonist's mind. They staged nine life-or-death love affairs with the male protagonist in nine eras: the late Qing Dynasty, the early Republic of China, the Anti-Japanese War, the Anti-Rightist Movement, the Cultural Revolution, the College Entrance Examination, the Reform and Opening Up, the present world, and the future. In the present world, the nine flowers take root one by one, blooming in the male protagonist's life, transforming into real-life adventures, interpreting abnormal love, and making the male obsessed with life and death. Traveling through time and space and falling into coma again and again, the male protagonist's wife Mudan maintains her tenacious motherhood, remains affectionate, never gives up, and insists on impressing the male protagonist with his love poems.
At the call of his wife, the male protagonist returns to the world and finally recognizes true love.
