Pei Zhiwei's life has been walking on two distinct parallel lines.
In front of others, she is Pei Zhiwei, a quiet, gentle and serious junior researcher;
Afterwards, she is the chief of the national confidential project "Prism Project", Su He, a top scholar who is calm, professional and reserved.
She never thought that these two parallel lines that would never intersect would quietly intersect because of the same person.
Shang Shixian was her personally selected project partner and a recognized genius in the theoretical physics community.
He is sober and restrained, always adhering to his own boundaries and sense of proportion, as rigorous as the exact instruments in a laboratory.
First, he was impressed by Su He's brilliance and talent through his papers and goggles, and regarded him as his only belief in his academic journey; then, as they got along day after day, he was moved by the tenderness and sympathy of Pei Zhiwei beside him, which moved his sincerity that he couldn't hide.
When he was surprised to realize that he had developed a liking for "two completely different people", he didn't feel any joy or wavering, but fell into serious self-examination and restraint.
He didn't want to be ambiguous, he didn't want to go beyond the rules, and he didn't want to become something he despised.
So he chose to introspect, give in, deliberately keep a distance, and spend countless late nights sorting out this complicated and turbulent heart alone.
Until the day when his identity was revealed, Pei Zhiwei met him at the top. She hid her unspoken waiting, raised her eyes and looked at the person in front of her seriously, and told him softly:
"There is never any luck. From beginning to end, I chose you."
Also known as "The Second Heartbeat"
