Five-Year Pact: I Choose Space Over You

Five-Year Pact: I Choose Space Over You Plot:

Lin Xiaoman and Gu Zhun have been in love for seven years, with a “five-year pact” to marry at 30. But the day she gets selected as a candidate for manned spaceflight, Gu finds the training notice hidden in her drawer—a five-year closed training with an uncertain return date, like a knife piercing their future. Gu asks through red eyes, “Space or me?” Xiaoman touches the ring-shaped mark on her finger, recalling the 12-year-old girl who swore to “touch stars in space.” Just as she packs to compromise, Gu leaves a note: “I learned astronaut families need aerospace knowledge,” plus a photo of his enrollment in a space city training program. Turns out, he didn’t blame her “choice”—he secretly slipped himself into her starry sky.
