The One Who Enters Dreams at Midnight
By day, he runs a fruit shop on an old street in Guangzhou.
By night, he is Pangu, cleaving heaven and earth apart.
Two worlds, one person.
On the night of his twenty-first birthday, he first dreamed that he stood at the edge of nothingness, a stone ax in his hand.
When he awoke, he thought it had been nothing but a dream.
Until he realized
The pale-moon figure standing beside him in the dream came to buy fruit every day in real life.
She never spoke.
She bought her fruit and left.
But in his dreams, she always stood half a step beside him.
One night in reality was a year in the dream.
She had walked beside him for a very, very long time.
He did not know who she was.
But he knew that, from that midnight on, he was no longer alone.
