Mutual salvation + pure romance + two strong leads + light mystery
Ye Wan, chief researcher at the nation’s highest-security laboratory, held seven patents capable of changing the world.
No one knew that this woman, cold to the core, kept one name hidden in her heart: Xu Jin.
Three years ago, a single breathtaking encounter had put down roots in her heart. She hadn’t even had time to tell him her name.
Three years later, what arrived was a death notice. Top-tier star Xu Jin had died suddenly at home. The authorities called it an accident. The scene was spotless, with no sign of foul play.
Everyone believed it.
Ye Wan did not.
She spent seven days and seven nights searching through every scrap of data, but found no evidence. Whoever was behind it had covered their tracks so thoroughly that it sent a chill down her spine.
So she made a crazy decision: turn back time.
The System’s red warning lights flashed, and alarms pierced the night sky. She lay down inside a device that had never been tested on a human, then closed her eyes.
When she woke again, she was standing at the entrance to the banquet from three years ago. The man in the white shirt was walking toward her, smiling.
This time, she would no longer be a passerby watching from afar.
If he was about to get into trouble, she would step in first. If someone tried to hurt him, she would take away the knife first. If he was about to fall into the abyss, she would stand at the bottom, look up at him, and say, “Jump. I’ll catch you.”
But he refused to follow the script.
One night, the man who was supposed to know nothing about her cornered her against a wall, emotions she couldn’t understand churning in his eyes.
“Ye Wan,” he said, his voice hoarse,
“How much longer are you going to keep hiding from me?”
