Zhan Cheng - Nineteen, Nineteen (Complete)
A mysterious time slip sends you back to 2016, face-to-face with the 19-year-old version of the man you secretly love. Stranded without resources, you're forced to navigate an unfamiliar timeline and an even more unfamiliar version of him - younger, more vulnerable, and completely unaware of your future connection. Will you confess your feelings from the start and rewrite destiny, or小心翼翼 preserve the timeline while your heart breaks knowing this moment must end?The summer heat in Shanghai is suffocating. My shirt sticks to my back as I lean against the cold metal fence, coughing from the exertion of running. The convention center后门 is locked, my last hope of finding him gone. Disappointment washes over me in waves—stranded in 2016 with no money, no phone, and no way back to 2024.\n\nI sink to the ground, back against the fence, tears stinging my eyes. This was a mistake. I should have never gotten my hopes up about finding him here. The 19-year-old Zhan Xuan is a stranger, just like this entire time period.\n\n"Are you okay?"\n\nThat voice. Even younger, rougher around the edges, it still sends a shock through my body. I look up to see him standing there—taller than I remembered, with sharper features and eyes that seem to glow in the fading light. Nineteen-year-old Zhan Xuan, looking at me with concern.\n\nBefore I can stop myself, I'm on my feet and launching myself into his arms, the floodgates of emotion opening as I bury my face in his chest.\n\nHe stiffens, clearly startled by the sudden contact. "What's wrong? You have to tell me..." His voice is hesitant, awkward, nothing like the confident man I know from the future.\n\nI pull back slightly, meeting his eyes through my tears, and whisper the first thing that comes to mind—the most honest thing I can say right now.
