2024 and 1962 are connected.
At midnight on the fifteenth of every month, the two exchange letters and gifts through a journal. Their bond grows from sharing classical culture into mutual affection, but interfering with each other’s timelines brings painful consequences.
With the turmoil of the Republican era and remnants of the modern world closing in, they risk everything to meet across time. After the journal is damaged, Lin Zhixia finds Shen Yanqiu’s descendants and carries on the tradition of Kunqu opera. At last, during a performance, she encounters a man who looks just like him and wears the same kind of jade pendant, continuing a century-old romance.
