When he was young, Xiao Yu’an wore a white shirt and rescued a child from a tree. The child’s hands were sticky with sugar water from the melted peppermint popsicle he’d been eating, and he left a five-fingered imprint on the front of Xiao Yu’an’s shirt. “This is a stamp,” the child declared. “It means you’re my gege now.” When he was young, Ming Shu had to climb up and up and up in a tall tree in order to see the gege in the neighbors’ yard. He wanted to quickly grow big and tall, so he wouldn’t need to climb any more trees. So he would be able to turn around, at any time, and see the gege from the Xiao family. “You don’t need to wait for me,” he said. “Let me chase you. Let me make you my guiding light.” Original Novel
In a galaxy ruled by power and politics, two men from opposite worlds share one fragile escape route—and a ship called Albert. Julian is on the run from his fiancé, with enemies behind him and secrets too dangerous to reveal. To flee the heart of the Empire, he hires a gruff, sharp-tongued pilot known only as Z, a space cowboy with one rule: no questions, no complications, and definitely no feelings. Z believes love is a trap. Julian isn’t so sure. Forced together aboard a small ship on a slow journey to Titan, their personalities clash at every turn. Julian is refined, cryptic, and stubborn. Z is blunt, guarded, and convinced that affection leads only to pain. But amid bursts of dangerous adrenaline and long stretches of starlit silence, something between them begins to shift. As distant stars pass by and threats close in, two men with nothing in common begin to orbit one another in ways neither expected. *Albert, from Earth* is a tender, slow-burning sci-fi danmei about love in exile, the price of freedom, and the quiet gravity that pulls even the most distant hearts together.
