Synopsis
Du Ke suffers from a rare form of anterograde amnesia that wipes his memory daily, leaving him to rediscover his feelings every morning. While he believes he is tentatively navigating the first sparks of a new romance with Jiang Qiyun, the reality is that the two have been deeply in love for over a century. This story reads like a sci-fi reimagining of the eternal loop trope, blending the sweetness of a first encounter with the weight of a long-term partnership. It is ideal for readers who enjoy devoted character dynamics and fluffy, high-tension romance, though those seeking expansive world-building or a long-form epic should look elsewhere. The narrative moves quickly, focusing on the poignant contrast between Du Ke's nervousness and Jiang Qiyun's seasoned affection, all set against a light futuristic backdrop that adds a touch of mystery to the proceedings.

Editorial Review
The novel presents a compelling emotional hook, utilizing a memory-loss premise to create a poignant dynamic between the two leads. The strength of the piece lies in its character chemistry; the contrast between the cautious, blushing protagonist and his patient, long-term partner is effectively established. However, the primary weakness is the work's extreme brevity. With only five chapters, the story functions more as a short sketch or a vignette than a full novel. While the author mentions suspenseful elements and a sci-fi setting, there is simply not enough narrative space to develop these threads or explore the implications of their century-long relationship. It delivers a concentrated dose of sweetness, but the lack of substance leaves the reader wanting a more comprehensive exploration of the plot and its futuristic world.
