A goofy, happy-go-lucky video blogger x a reserved, introverted researcher

When we meet again in the future, will you recognize me at first glance?

-1-

What does it feel like to see your boyfriend again two years after he died in an accident?

Wu Suizhi can answer that question.

Jiang Zhen reappeared before Wu Suizhi in the second year after his accident, in 2082.

Jiang Zhen was no longer taciturn or concerned only with research. He was upbeat, could keep a conversation going, and was a wonderful cook.

He was Jiang Zhen, whose eyes were only for Wu Suizhi, the man who had once been her ideal type.

But Wu Suizhi was certain that he wasn't the Jiang Zhen from the past.

Because she no longer felt anything for him.

"Are you Jiang Zhen who transmigrated here, or the Jiang Zhen from a parallel universe?" Wu Suizhi challenged him to his face, but Jiang Zhen only chuckled. "Neither."

"I don't believe you."

So Jiang Zhen recited their memories together backward, right in front of her.

"Suizhi, I'm Jiang Zhen, and Jiang Zhen is me. I've always been me."

Wu Suizhi looked at the Jiang Zhen before her, who suddenly seemed like a stranger, and smiled with her lips pressed together.

The real Jiang Zhen, are you dead or not?

-3-

Everyone had given Jiang Zhen the same label: a taciturn man.

Wu Suizhi nodded in agreement. Her boyfriend Jiang Zhen couldn't cook, never ate on time, didn't care about how he dressed, and loved nothing but research. What else could he be but taciturn?

-4-

What their life together looked like before they broke up:

While Jiang Zhen checked research data, Wu Suizhi curled up on the sofa, engrossed in romance novels.

While Jiang Zhen wrote reports late into the night, Wu Suizhi studied recipes, searching for the perfect diet to keep her hair from thinning.

She didn't want Jiang Zhen to go bald before his time.

-5-

In their fifth year together, Jiang Zhen became inexplicably cold and distant. At last, Wu Suizhi, usually slow to notice things, sensed that something was wrong.

Her passionate love was defeated by his usual cool indifference. After accumulating enough disappointment, Wu Suizhi asked to break up.

The next day, news of an aircraft accident made the headlines.

The future setting is made up, so don't take it too seriously.

At heart, this is a sweet romance.

Pre-release: When the World Sees Five of Her

[Blurb]

After an accident left Wei Shuqing traumatized, she developed multiple personalities.

That same accident brought her and Wei Jinning together again.

At the time, he was the CEO of a gaming company and also managed a sports club. She had just entered the advertising industry, and as an employee in the client services department, she presented several proposals to Wei Jinning's team.

Wei Shuqing wanted nothing to do with him beyond work, but Wei Jinning insisted on showing up to claim his place in her life. She fobbed him off by insisting that their relationship was strictly professional.

"Then who was clinging to me in the bathtub last night, asking me to pour rose oil?"

Wei Shuqing hurriedly covered his mouth. Damn it, which personality had come out and caused trouble last night?

Wei Jinning loosened his tie, swept her into his arms, and set her down on the sofa. He leaned over her, wanting to see how many faces she had.

"Wei Jinning, listen to me first."

"Ningning." He bent toward her. "Shuqing, call me Ningning. You haven't called me that in years."

"I won't."

Rain lashed against the windows in torrents.

After a night wrapped up in each other, Wei Shuqing leaned against his shoulder and murmured softly, "Ningning."
