Synopsis
Yan You, a high school student, has a special ability that no one knows about. With his eyes, he can see the duration of the existence of everything in the world. Plants, objects, buildings and scenery are all destined to die. Having witnessed the separation and end of the world all the year round, he has a cold and solitary personality, and is used to walking alone. He takes everything indifferently and accepts fate, and is certain that there is no real eternity in the world. In the evening after transferring to another school, he ran into Qi Xu, a fellow schoolmate, in a secluded second-hand bookstore. Qi Xu is gentle, relaxed, delicate and transparent. He treats others with discretion and warmth. He is good at capturing the hidden emotions of others. He is a lively and gentle existence. When Yan You looked at him, he saw a completely different scene for the first time - Qi Xu's whole body was completely blank, with no time limit and no end point, jumping out of his cognition of the rule that everything must have an end. The strangeness made Yan You, who was used to being distant, unconsciously pay attention and get closer. Qi Xu noticed Yan You's sensitivity, cowardice and habit of being alone, and took the initiative to be gentle and tolerant, silently protecting his isolation and awkwardness, and gradually entering his closed world. The bond between the two gradually deepened in their trivial daily life, testing and forbearing in both directions. Yan You was trapped in the sense of fate brought about by his supernatural powers and did not dare to confess his feelings; Qi Xu did not know his secret and only stayed with him when he was lonely, patiently waiting for him to open his heart. Yan You once thought that there was no eternity in the world, but it was not until he met Qi Xu that he realized that he was the only unsolvable, endless and unique eternity in his world full of countdowns. The two teenagers healed each other, broke through the fateful loneliness, and became each other's most stable destination in the long years. Before I met you, I thought eternity did not exist. Before I met you, I never thought that I would be your forever. Purpose: This book explores the proposition of loneliness and destiny through the weak fantasy setting of young Yan You who can see the duration of the existence of all things. Yan You has lived for a long time with the sense of fate that all things will eventually decay. He is used to bearing it alone and does not believe in the eternal existence. It was not until he met Qi Xu that he saw the only blank space in the world. The story wants to express: Compared with the established end point, the true bond between people is more meaningful in itself. Love does not have to be defined by a deadline. There is always someone who can break the loneliness and pessimism that has been rooted in your heart for a long time.
