On the tree-lined paths of Linjiang University, Su Wan knocks the book Practical Entrepreneurship Management from Lin Chen’s arms, and stumbles into a love that spans time and death. This reserved computer genius turns his secret love into code scented with lavender, but after being diagnosed with terminal lung cancer, he chooses to face fate alone. When Su Wan’s startup struggles in Paris, she discovers that her lover is entangled in a deadly conflict with his ex-girlfriend’s multinational pharmaceutical company. Behind the truth lies a cruel bargain: trading a company for a life.
Fate takes a turn in the lavender fields of Provence. As Lin Chen lies dying, he uploads his consciousness to the quantum cloud. Carrying the legacy of their code, Su Wan searches for the key to rebirth in parallel universes. From the library at Linjiang University to cafés on Paris’s Left Bank, from the rain around the Eiffel Tower to lavender nebulae on a Martian farm, they meet in every timeline: as rivals debating onstage, lovers supporting each other through cancer treatment, or creators writing code for immortality at a quantum computer.
Blending the tenderness of About Time with the science-fiction philosophy of Arrival, this story reimagines romance through technologies such as blockchain and nanorobots. When the scent of lavender crosses a wormhole and cancer-cell DNA becomes an encryption key, Su Wan and Lin Chen write an eternal vow across multiple universes: true love is not about waiting for a miracle, but creating every possibility.
