[Blurb]
Jiang Yi is an ordinary, good-hearted person, but she has never had good luck.
After finally making it through a childhood full of hardship and an unlucky adolescence, she scrapes by until the age of twenty-nine. At the tail end of her youth, Jiang Yi finally gets a home of her own.
On the night of her twenty-ninth birthday, she dreams of a place called "Souzhen." There is an old-fashioned teahouse there, whose owner is a frail, gentle woman who looks as if she were made of paper. But no matter how hard Jiang Yi tries, she cannot make out the teahouse owner's face in the dream.
At first, Jiang Yi pays it no mind. Unexpectedly, the teahouse owner appears in her dreams night after night.
Thinking she is haunted, Jiang Yi goes through all sorts of trouble before learning the truth: she has a brain tumor pressing on her central nervous system. Her doctor says this condition can cause hallucinations.
After much inner turmoil, Jiang Yi sells the little home she worked so hard to buy, packs her bags, and sets off in search of "Souzhen." At the end of her life, she wants to confirm a few things.
She is a woman as pale as paper, standing there quietly. She says to Jiang Yi, "You've come."
Jiang Yi thinks she has found love at the end of her life, but the teahouse owner tells her, "You won't die of cancer. That would be far too humiliating for you."
The woman's certainty confuses Jiang Yi. Her words are strange, yet Jiang Yi listens calmly.
One day, Jiang Yi suddenly opens her eyes and finds herself lying in a hospital bed, with a red moon hanging outside the window.
Jiang Yi thinks her journey to "Souzhen" was merely a hallucination brought on by brain cancer, and that the red moon was part of it too.
Little does she know, this is only the true beginning.
Theme: The story follows a brain cancer patient who refuses to give in to illness, will not compromise, pursues treatment and follows medical advice, bravely fighting the disease, yet is forced to experience a journey of hallucinations.
