A Heartbeat at This Moment

Si Miao’s boyfriend of several years often disappears without explanation. She suspects he’s seeing someone else, but has no proof. Then, on her birthday, he vanishes again, this time for several months.

Unable to take it anymore, Si Miao sends him a breakup message.

A month later, she gets a reply. He claims he’s selling vegetables at a stall in a cyberpunk future, the signal is bad, and he’ll never agree to break up.

Si Miao thinks he’s talking nonsense. Who comes up with such an absurd excuse? She blocks him everywhere.

But the next second, she appears right in front of her boyfriend, and the two of them stare at each other across his vegetable stall.

Si Miao: “Holy crap, you’re actually selling vegetables!”

Her boyfriend drops to his knees and clings to her leg. “Honey, I swear I didn’t disappear on purpose! The dimensional coordinates are so far apart that the signal reception is terrible. I don’t want to break up!”

High technology, low standards of living, humans fused with machines. Who can tell her why the vegetables here taste so awful? Mutated beasts, wasteland, nuclear contamination.

At her wit’s end, Si Miao comes up with a purifier, and at last the awful food becomes edible.

She accidentally invents too many things and threatens the rulers. They try to intimidate and bribe her, but when she refuses to back down, they send assassins after her.

Si Miao is done.

She could have quietly grown vegetables, but they just had to make her bring out the big guns.

Later, Si Miao overthrows the decayed regime single-handedly, creates a new order, and becomes a legend in the cyberpunk world.
