Song Yi, an experimental subject from a high-tech future, was trapped in the twenty-first century after a chip malfunction.
Relentless neural pain tormented him until Shen Yu appeared. This arrogant, carefree deskmate turned out to be his only "painkiller." When Song Yi was near Shen Yu, the bone-deep pain vanished. But whenever he tried to investigate the truth, the world pushed him back to square one with all kinds of "coincidental mishaps."
Shen Yu was shrouded in mysteries, always appearing "just in time" whenever Song Yi was in danger. Beneath his irreverent facade lay unfathomable pain and an almost self-destructive desire to protect him.
When their cozy illusion shattered and the world bared its fangs, Song Yi had to choose between "illusory happiness" and "the cruel reality of having the real Shen Yu." On the brink of the world's collapse, the only thing they could hold on to was each other's hand.
They healed each other's wounds and found new life beyond the truth and the wreckage.
Theme: True healing means facing the source of every pain together, side by side.
