"When Chinese New Year happens, that's the only time I get to see him." - AX

Althea Xi, an orphan and a freelance article writer in most Shanghai mainland broadcasting and newspaper companies wanted to become a famous top author in China through an international competition that will end before the new year of 2023. She came up with the decision to use the 'The Legend of the Cursed Dragon' as her setting for her work, in which her deceased grandmother always told her when it was nighttime when she was just a kid. But fate turned the tables around when she has been disqualified from the competition as soon as she used the prohibited folklore. 

She used that opportunity to abandon the story that was etched through her mind for a long time by throwing the bejeweled box that she was forbidden to open to the Yangtze River. Her deceased grandmother had been guarding it since her teenage years, and she knew that the box and the legend had been bringing her a stroke of bad luck all throughout her life. But before she could even leave the river, she accidentally tripped through rocks and fell down on the deep waters. 

She swam upwards with all her might, but little did she know, she was being transported through the year 1904, where a Chinese New Year celebration was happening on the side of the river.

A LITTLE EXCERPT: 

"I exude a powerful charm I never imagined that would save you." 

"It was because of the power of love we have on each other." 

He then claimed her lips in the middle of the rain while the rivers of the Yangtze River were evident. He held onto her waist after a while. And she scraped her fingernails on his hair. 

They both love each other, they both do.

A Tale of Chinese New Year Lovers: My Dragon, My Love

She was going to assure that everything has put in place,

She will not be the one who could adhere.

The one that could refresh her memory,

The one that could restart the destiny.

THE YEAR 1904, a century away from the present time.

"Althea...," he drawled out. Xiaojun gripped the bottle in his palms. He didn't know what to do but to just look out at the window. There was a lot of blood, with no clear, evident pathway from where it came from. Xiaojun crouched down, thrusting the bottle in his hand. But Qing Long didn't even accept it at start.

"We need Mei. Where the hell is she?!" Qing Long shouted over the confines of the room. He walked up to the door, felt the sense of energy that he couldn't feel earlier. Someone showed up at the middle of the ground, and Qing Long sighed as he ran up the bottom porch.
