When Lu Xuan, the heir to a wealthy family, met Lin Chen in the sunlight of a library, he thought he had found the one warmth he would ever need. Step by step, he wove a net of love with tenderness and domineering affection, drawing the shy, kindhearted Lin Chen deep into it. But their sweet beginning could not withstand the icy rain of reality. His family’s contempt, the gulf between their social classes, and a cruel diagnosis of terminal illness sent Lin Chen plunging into despair. To keep from burdening the one he loved, Lin Chen chose to leave with the cruelest lie.
When Lu Xuan tore through the lie and touched the bloody truth, everything was already beyond saving. As his beloved stopped breathing, he chose to embrace an absurd legend: using the blood from his heart as a key and shattered glass as a pact, he sacrificed everything he had in the real world for the faint possibility of meeting again in the “Mirror Realm.”
At last, they met again in that illusory world, but they could not touch. Each time they drew close, they risked shattering their final refuge completely. This is a love that buys togetherness with eternal imprisonment, the most profound love and the cruelest punishment. When the memories of reality are erased, can the two of them in the mirror keep their eternal promise, one that spans life and death?
