The flowers bloom for over three thousand years, all for the chance to meet again.
A dream uncovers a mystery of life and death spanning three thousand years.
Modern-day office worker Li Shuyue lives on instant coffee that costs 9.9 yuan a cup, and her biggest dream is to win the lottery and lie flat. Then, on a rainy Saturday, a mysterious man appears in her dream and leaves her with one line: “When the flowers of the Other Shore bloom, we will meet again.”
He has searched for her for three thousand years, waiting at the Bridge of Helplessness in every lifetime as she drinks Meng Po's memory-erasing soup twenty-seven times. She has hated him for three thousand years, carrying an oath of vengeance into each new life and never living past the age of thirty. At last, in this life, a monk from Jing'an Temple and an old friend from the Qilian Mountains begin to uncover the truth that has been sealed away...
It turns out that what lies between love and hate was never betrayal, but a conspiracy long in the making. And when the flowers of the Other Shore bloom, it won't mark the end of hatred, but the end of a long wait and the finding of a place to call home.
