At twenty-one, Lin Xia received a message from the person she had secretly loved: [Are you doing okay?]
They hadn't seen each other in years, and Lin Xia could barely contain her excitement.
But the next day, she got a call from her mother, asking her to come home for Chen Wang's funeral.
At seven, Chen Wang had moved with his grandmother to Jinxi, a remote little town. Cool and aloof, with extraordinary talent, he seemed completely out of place there.
Lin Xia had secretly watched him countless times, but before she could confess her feelings, Chen Wang moved away after the college entrance exams. From then on, she lost contact with him.
How could someone like Chen Wang, who survived his lonely, impoverished youth, die after enduring every hardship, just when his future had finally begun to shine?
No matter how she tried, Lin Xia couldn't understand.
Even stranger,
when she returned for Chen Wang's funeral, she discovered that every family member and friend who attended seemed troubled, as if they all knew a secret about Chen Wang that she didn't.
Fortunately, fate was kind to her. She transmigrated back to Jinxi, fourteen years earlier.
This time, she was determined to uncover Chen Wang's secret and save him!
Then Chen Wang died.
Chen Wang died again.
Chen Wang died yet again.
At her fourth Chen Wang funeral, Lin Xia closed her eyes. She refused to believe she couldn't save the person she'd loved all this time.
One more time!
*
At the moment death came, Chen Wang remembered that this was already the fourth time he had died.
The girl in his memories crossed time every time, taking his hand without ever tiring of it and telling him, "I will save you."
Don't put yourself through so much, Chen Wang wanted to tell her.
If he'd known he would drag Lin Xia into this, he would never have sent his final message to her.
But, but...
If they could start over again, if they could truly reach a happy ending together...
Then there was one thing Chen Wang had never managed to say aloud, even across all those cycles. He wanted to tell her in person.
* 1v1, both leads' first love, happy ending.
* Four transmigrations, saving the past | Stubborn, hedgehog-like heroine x Gentle, insecure beloved boy | They save each other.
* The heroine will transmigrate several times and won't stay long in any one period.
Theme: May you travel through time, cross the thorns, and always move forward bravely.
