[One-on-one romance + transmigrate + a sweet-on-the-outside, dark-on-the-inside male lead + bittersweet redemption + both leads are each other’s first and only + wild imagination]
Qi Yunlang has a secret: he got his life by stealing someone else’s.
Twenty-three years ago, he rescued someone in an alley off Longjin Road and took over his identity. Since then, he has lived under another person’s name, using it to take bit parts, make movies, and form friendships, always walking on eggshells.
But he owes someone a debt.
That person appears whenever he is close to death. A cold touch, three knocks, a rusted door pushed open, and she sends him from fires, gun barrels, and explosions to safety again and again. He cannot see her. He only knows she is there.
Later, he finds out her name.
He waits for twenty years.
Waiting for her to come back, to be born, to appear once more.
He doesn’t know that some waits have been wrong from the very beginning.
He has lived for twenty-three years under a false identity, living for two people.
The person he has waited a lifetime for has been right beside him all along.
But he will never know what it is that he has been waiting for.
“Xu Zhaoyang, I’ve come to find you.”
