Mending Time, Making Secret Love Come True

Shen Zhiyao is a doctoral student specializing in cultural relic restoration. After her family fell on hard times, she had to shoulder life’s burdens alone.

Her mother died young, her father was killed in the line of duty, and her grandmother fell gravely ill. She worked three jobs to make ends meet.

Then an accident gave her the ability to mend the cracks in time.

She could see the emotions left behind in cultural relics and trace the truth of the past.

From then on, fragments of ancient texts and crumbling walls regained their former splendor in her hands. Even the oldest murals quietly “came back to life.”

She deciphered overnight documents that took others months to verify, and solved restoration problems that had left her colleagues at a loss.

Experts were stunned and the industry was in an uproar. Those who had once looked down on her changed their tune.

She was no longer an obscure student from a poor family, but a guardian bringing a thousand-year-old civilization back to life.

One day, she would stand at the pinnacle of cultural heritage preservation, restoring not only the past, but also a love that had once slipped away.
