Features: Liu Ruoying's latest literary work: Highly anticipated and eagerly awaited! Following the critically acclaimed One Person's KTV in 2001, Liu Ruoying once again conveys heartwarming, passionate love through her words! In this book, Liu Ruoying shares many stories about love from people around her and expresses her own desire to fall in love. Liu Ruoying has always handled her personal life with great discretion, with nicknames like "the ambassador of loneliness" closely following her.
Liu Ruoying recalls working with Zhang Aiya on the film 203040. After watching the movie, Zhang Aiya said to her the next day, "I think you should go on a date. Your face in the film is all in cold tones—there’s no hint of the sweetness of a woman in love." When these senior figures suggested that "lack of love" was the reason for her poor performance, Liu Ruoying began to feel confused. She even asked herself, "Love? Who doesn’t want it? But love isn’t just about one person! You all make it sound so easy—like you can just go downstairs and find someone."
That’s how the title Date Downstairs came to be. Liu Ruoying says, "Or you might say I’m crazy about dating—still not knowing where the stairs are, yet thinking I can handle it once I’m downstairs. But I just love this name."
