Mutual sincerity

Li Zhou accidentally discovers he can hear the thoughts of his colleague Xiao Mei. At first it seems like an amusing game — he knows what she thinks about the upcoming presentation, what coffee she prefers, what irritates her about their boss. But when his own name starts appearing in her thoughts, Li realizes the boundary between curiosity and feelings is blurring. This 2026 romantic fantasy explores what happens when the last barriers between people disappear. Can a relationship be built on absolute honesty? What matters more — thoughts heard or words spoken? The story unfolds in a modern metropolis where technology has already changed communication, but magic offers the most direct contact possible.
