Blurb:
On a business trip, Song Ningfeng is in a car accident. When she opens her eyes again, she finds herself forty years in the future.
The goddess she remembers, pure as moonlight and elegant as an orchid, lies helplessly in bed like a withered rose.
White hair and wrinkles cruelly reveal the marks time has left on her.
Worn down by Alzheimer's, Zhou Erya's memories are like a shattered mirror. She no longer even remembers Song Ningfeng, the woman she once loved so deeply.
Song Ningfeng, meanwhile, still has the youthful appearance of a twenty-five-year-old, at the brightest point of her life.
Everyone around her urges her to let go: "She doesn't even remember you anymore. Why keep putting yourself through this?"
Reason tells her she should let go.
After all, what can she gain from a patient who has forgotten her?
But in the dim lamplight, Zhou Erya looks so helpless and lost.
Just one look at her makes Song Ningfeng's heart feel as though it has been cut by a knife. The cold, biting wind leaves her unable to breathe.
In the end, she can't bear to let Zhou Erya suffer. She firmly takes her hand, solemn as if making a wedding vow.
"This time, let me take care of you, Sister."
Though the road ahead is full of thorns, I love you just as I always have.
Reader's guide:
[The blurb was screenshotted on September 25, 2024]
1. The author's notes include educational information about Alzheimer's disease. If you don't like that, you can hide the author's notes. There will also be a little of it in the main text, but not much.
2. The ending is rather like a fairy tale, with an absolutely happy ending. Readers who only enjoy pure angst may want to look elsewhere.
Theme: Love begins without our knowing, then grows ever deeper
