The Proust Effect: a superpower related to memory.
"It means that simply smelling a scent you've smelled before can bring back the memories associated with it."
A high fever five years ago caused Jiang Ning to lose some of her memories.
Yet she remembered that familiar scent alone.
-
At an auction, Jiang Ning was outbid by Fu Hengzhou.
She stopped the auction and tried to reason with him, but got nowhere. Then he said,
"Marry me, and what's mine will be yours."
They'd only met twice, and he already wanted to marry her. What a ridiculous idea.
"Fine!"
She agreed, not just because of the item up for auction, but because he carried the scent she was looking for.
-
"Why do you keep helping me?" she finally couldn't hold back the question.
He lowered his eyes to her, his gaze deep as the night.
"Because I lost you once before. I won't let you go again for the rest of my life."
-
Two meetings were all it took for a love that would last until death.
Even if you can't remember what I look like, you can't forget my scent.
I'll follow the fragrance buried deep in my memories to find my beloved.
*Marriage first, love later
