Features: A subtle and profound writing style that delivers a seamless reading pleasure. Thousands of netizens at home and abroad are rushing to read it, with waves of enthusiastic reviews and endless comments expressing anticipation for the book! Renowned critic Huang Jiwei and Jiang Nan of This Side of the Young highly recommend it! This book represents a new type of Chinese romantic novel. In terms of the subtlety of romance, it is not inferior to Qiong Yao or Li Bihua; in its grasp of human relationships and power struggles, it rivals Gao Yang and Er Haihe. It is a collection that readers cannot afford to miss. Du Ruo is particularly skilled at creating emotions in her novels. In Du Ruo's world, distant times blur everything. And that deep melancholy, or even gentle sadness, thus takes center stage. All of this, I suspect, is done deliberately by Du Ruo: she wants to use words to build a barrier of time and language—in that castle made of hazy time threads and winding words, she lets herself guard a private affection: whether it's despair, tragic beauty, or clarity. Delicate and dense, perhaps in the mortal world, countless dreams have broken through the heavens above Qiong Yao. The author's narration of the story is very detailed and rhythmic, so it's hard to put down while reading. It is very desirable to know how this ordinary woman will cope with a future beyond her control. To achieve this, the writing is already quite outstanding.
