I Want to See You

At the door of a coffee shop on a street corner in Rongcheng, the wind chime jingled whenever customers came and went. Inside, the stunning owner carefully unfolded a freshly made missing-person poster and hung it in the most prominent spot in the shop. It seemed more important to her than her business. "Teacher Zhuang, could I get your autograph?" A fan recognized the owner and nervously approached her. The woman thought for a moment, then took off her mask with her slender, pale hands and readily agreed. "Autographs and photos are both fine. Coffee and desserts are on the house. I only have one request." She pointed to the missing-person poster, her expression solemn. "Could you post this to your social media and help me find someone?" Zhuang Weichou was looking for someone. Ten years ago, that person had given Zhuang Weichou, then a student, an unadorned umbrella in the wind and rain. Ten years later, when the clouds glowed with sunset hues, that person had given the now-successful Zhuang Weichou a little shop where she could escape the world. A helping hand in a snowstorm, timely rain: that was exactly what this person had been to her. The trouble was, Zhuang Weichou had never seen her. It was as if they were separated by a time difference. This person took part in her life, yet remained outside it. As time passed, even Zhuang Weichou began to wonder whether it was all like trying to grasp the moon's reflection in water, nothing more than a dream brought on by intoxication. Over the course of ten years, her memories gradually faded. Only a few traces remained in writing. So Zhuang Weichou recorded those little moments on paper and kept them in her heart. Then one day, she found a message in that magical notebook, written there at some unknown time. "Weichou, live well. Don't look for me anymore." The president of Yin Group, Yin, has a secret: she owns a magical notebook that writes on its own. They say the person writing in it comes from ten years in the future, and her name is Zhuang Weichou. ☆ Resilient, determined actress x a considerate, tender-to-the-core CEO Reader's guide: [1] A little showbiz, both leads are virgins, they save each other, 1v1, happy ending [2] An eight-year age gap, and a slightly slow start [3] The story follows two plotlines in parallel (important), and the pacing is tight. It's best not to skip chapters. [4] Modern fictional setting, same-sex marriage is legal, and no real people are referenced [5] Lots of original worldbuilding (illnesses don't perfectly match reality). The medicine is author-created. Let's just say everything will get better. Don't get hung up on the details. [6] The writing is amateurish. I hope you enjoy following the story. Discuss the plot and characters reasonably, and please don't make personal attacks or be snarky~ Theme: Treasure your time and live well.
