Xiao Ya traveled through time and entered Peiping in the 26th year of the Republic of China.
She originally thought she was just an ordinary female student in night school, but under questioning, she was pulled into the arms of the teacher whom she had never met before.
He declared: "This is my unmarried wife."
From then on, she moved into the dormitory arranged by him and watched how this gentle gentleman held on to his platform in troubled times.
She knew the direction of history, and knew that this man named Zhang Yunxin would eventually die in battle, leaving no trace of his body.
She tried to change, but he smiled and said to her:
"If I don't go, who will guard these mountains and rivers? If the mountains and rivers are not there, where will you be?"
Later, she was in the modern library, stroking the yellowed Book of Songs.
On the edge of the page, the line of pencil writing spanning a century is still clear:
"On the water side. Waiting for you."
