Synopsis
[ABO·Beluga Alpha × Peach Blossom Jellyfish Omega·BE Aesthetics] Jiang Lin is a peach jellyfish Omega. His pheromones are transparent, odorless, beautiful and deadly - any Alpha who touches him will suffer cardiac arrest and die within minutes. From the day he separated at the age of twelve, he learned to hide. Away from people, from touch, from everyone who might love him. He lived his life as a transparent, non-existent shadow until he met Shen Du in the coffee shop. Shen Du is a beluga whale Alpha. His pheromones are sea salt, green bamboo and earth after rain, which are calm, refreshing and tolerant. The first time he saw Jiang Lin, he knew that this person was his Hai. As he approached, Jiang Lin backed away. He stretched out his hand and Jiang Lin ran away. He said "I like you" and Jiang Lin said "We are not suitable". It's not that I don't love it. It is impossible to love. Every time he got close, the toxins in Jiang Lin's body would awaken; every time he touched, Shen Du's fingertips would tingle. He hid his secret and pushed Shen Du away with the cruelest tenderness until Shen Du got tired and let go, writing "that's it" in the breakup message. He replied "Okay". A year later, Shendu ran aground and Jianglin dehydrated. One is numbing himself with work in a northern city, and the other is crying silently in front of the people in the painting in the isolation ward. They all thought that time would dilute everything until fate reunited them on the seaside. After the reunion, Shen Du finally learned the truth - Jiang Lin's pheromones were highly toxic, and without pheromone treatment, he would not survive more than two years. The only treatment plan required Shen Du to risk his life, be exposed to toxins again and again, and bet whether his heart could bear it again and again. This is not a fair bet. If they win, both of them may live; if they lose, Shen Du will die in Jiang Lin's arms. What Jiang Lin fears most is that he will become the murderer of his lover. But Shen Du said: "Beluga whale only recognizes one sea in his life. You are my sea. No matter whether this sea will drown me or not, I will not leave." They hugged, they kissed, they thought the antibodies would arrive before death. On the night of estrus, Jiang Lin huddled on the corner of the bed, and the transparent poison filled the whole room. Shen Du opened the door, hugged him, and said at the last moment—— "I don't regret it." The heart stopped. The sea is still there. For the next ten years, Jiang Lin lived in a world without sinking, like a stranded peach blossom jellyfish, melting slowly and silently. The painting "Deep Sea and White Whale" hangs on the wall. In the painting, the white whale has its eyes closed and sinks among the glowing peach jellyfish. He said to it every day: In the next life, I will be a beluga whale and you will be a jellyfish. I'm coming to you. This is a story about "transparency" and "existence", "poison" and "antidote", "embrace" and "death". It tells you: Some people are destined not to stay together, but their love lasts longer than any eternity. Intention: The sea does not reject any river, just as love does not reject any vulnerability. This is a story about "touch" - longing for touch, fearing touch, and finally completing eternity in touch. The beluga Alpha Shen Du has only known one sea in his life, and that sea is called Jiang Lin; the peach blossom jellyfish Omega Jiang Lin has spent her whole life running away from people, love, and the fate called "poison" in her body. The novel explores the paradox of love: the deepest love is presented in the form of "pushing away". Every time Jiang Lin is cold, every time he dodges, every time he says "we are not suitable", it is not that he doesn't love, but that he loves too much - so much that he would rather die alone than get hurt at all. And every time Shen Du approaches, every time he waits, every time he says "I won't give up" is another kind of love's answer: I will take your poison; I will accompany you in your life. Beluga whale and peach blossom jellyfish, one sinks in the deep sea and the other floats in the shallows. They met in places they shouldn't have met and fell in love when they shouldn't have. This is not a story about salvation—no one is saved, no one receives a miracle. This is a story about choices: choosing to embrace, even if hugging is death; choosing to remember, even if memory is eternal pain. The transparent, non-existent peach blossom jellyfish eventually becomes the most important existence in a person's life. The poisonous and fatal love finally became the purest and most harmless affection. Perhaps the most poisonous thing in the world is not poison, but the willingness to die knowing that you will die.
