On the night of her eighteenth birthday, Shen Xingmian had a dream.
In the dream, there was a white moonstone castle, a glowing rose garden, and a man whose face she could never see clearly. He calls her "Your Highness" and she calls him "Sion". After waking up from the dream, she only remembered the huge sadness in her chest that did not belong to her, and the birthmark in the shape of a silver bracelet on her left wrist.
She thought it was just a dream.
Until she met a boy buying grilled cold noodles on the snack street in front of the university. He had a pair of light gray eyes, and had the same mark on his left wrist. He spoke the most common dialogue on earth, but the end of his voice was exactly the same as the man in the dream.
Across the destruction of an entire universe, across eighteen years of oblivion, across the smoke and smoke of the human world——
He said to her: "Did I promise to marry you?"
And she remembered that on that lost planet, there was a wedding that could never be held.
