In Cao Mu's memory, she had already died once.
On the eighty-year-old hospital bed, Wen Yining held her hand. The two have been together for half their lives, but they have no love for children.
Opening your eyes, the smell of disinfectant filled your nose. Cao Wenyuan sat by the window, Cao You was holding porridge, frowning and calling her "Why are you crying?" Xiao Qingxue stretched out her hand to touch her forehead: "Just wake up."
Everyone is here, alive.
Only the late banquet is missing.
The boy who once jumped over the wall onto the balcony of her house and told her, "You are the only thing I am sure of", evaporated from the world out of thin air. His name on the graduation album turned into a ball of light, and the mark on his student status file was cancelled.
Cao Mu asked everyone around him and got the same answer: "Who is Chi Yan?"
She searched hard for any traces of his past and found only a vague note with only one sentence: "Have you been to that concert?"
She was convinced that this person really existed.
By chance, Cao Mu walked into an antique shop, and a box of letters revealed his cruel fate.
She was the one who should have died at the age of nineteen.
Chi Yan went against time and space several times, using his own existence as a sacrifice, in exchange for her rebirth over and over again. The world in front of him, where everything went smoothly, turned out to be a gift he had gained from annihilation time and time again.
This time, she didn't want the perfection he had gained by sacrificing his life.
All she wants is a late dinner.
If reunion requires exhausting all her luck, she is willing to give everything in exchange.
Even if the world completely forgets him, I will always remember him.
When all her relatives and friends in the world have come to an end, she abandons the stability of this world, crosses time and space, and rushes to the desolate world that belongs to him alone.
Intention: gain and loss
