Longevity + strong female lead + tragic romance + urban supernatural mysteries + redemption
If saving you means forgetting you, then I choose to fall in love with the same person again and again, throughout eternity.
[A curse sealed away for a thousand years]
My name is Ji Wenbin. I’m a woman who has lived for over a thousand years.
Longevity is no blessing. It’s a curse. I coexist with a mysterious entity called “Huang,” and the price is the constant consumption of my memories.
My lover, my enemy, my closest friend... Their faces are fading from my mind, one by one.
I keep a notebook filled with warnings to myself.
“Do not fall in love. If you do, you will lose your memories.”
“Do not save anyone. If you do, you will forget yourself.”
The latest entry reads: “Beware of Lin Wan. She will kill you.”
[A crisis in the modern city]
Now I’m hiding in the city, but a memory hunter has found me, forcing me to use the power of “soulweaving.”
Every time I save someone, I lose a piece of my past. To save a child, I paid the price of completely forgetting my first love’s name.
And the woman mentioned in that warning, Lin Wan, is standing at my door right now, holding a cup of coffee and smiling.
She says, “Miss Ji, have we met before?”
But the moment my fingertips touch her, I see a scene from a thousand years ago: her plunging a dagger into my heart.
[A final confrontation with fate]
Now an even more terrifying threat, the “Hollow Ones,” has descended upon the city. Wherever they go, memories are wiped clean and all things become void.
They are the end awaiting all who live forever, and the future I am destined for.
Lin Wan raises her “burial” blade and points it at me. “Ji Wenbin, before you completely forget who you are, I’ll be the one to end you.”
