No one ever told her that the wind in different worlds could stir the same flutter of the heart.
In a high school classroom, she is the new transfer student. Seen from a third-person perspective, the cool and distant Jiang Yubai slides an annotated textbook onto her desk, while the rebellious Lu Xingmian hands her warm milk by stealing her breakfast. The two boys' gazes keep colliding on her, sparking silent flames.
On a film set, she is an actress being vilified online. Shen Qingci's coat always appears when she's cold, and Gu Shiyan's private-chef takeout arrives before the script. They tell her, “You're different,” with a seriousness that feels nothing like acting.
Across ten revolving worlds, she goes from a concubine-born daughter of a marquis's house to a star-faring refugee, from a doctor in the apocalypse to a magic apprentice. Whether gentle or possessive, the people she meets always offer her support when she turns away, hiding their special affection in the little things.
Xiao Tang says they are fragments of the same soul. When she returns to where it all began, the senior who brings her strawberry milk in the library and the man who shields her from the crowd at a street corner both have a familiar warmth in their eyes.
It turns out this journey was never a mission. Someone crossed time and space to say “I want to see you” over and over again.
