Features: Those young people came from all directions to attend a grand feast of joy. They stood in a line, forming a scenic view, singing about unregretful youth. Through the glass window, they saw them laughing heartlessly, patting each other's shoulders! Even shedding tears, they laughed so loudly! Bo Yu, with a mouth full of witty remarks, amused both young and old. Mei Yi always stood close to Bo Yu, singing songs of life and death intertwined. Qiu Shi spread his arms and said: Xiao Yu, no matter when, I will never abandon you. Dong Mei's lonely back silhouette was a mystery, and the answer was revealed on the last page! Each person in the novel is a piece of text; when they met, they formed a joke of youth. They either died in the laughter or thought in the laughter! After a casual meal of youth, we slowly savor the taste of life, with all the joys, sorrows, happiness, and bitterness. Youth is unrestrained, bursting with laughter. Love is no longer dominant, with friendship and family sharing the throne. My name is Bo Yu, and I often live in the deep mountains. One day, a friend sent me a letter, saying: The literary world outside the mountains is in turmoil. The rising stars of the 1980s are fighting for supremacy on Mount Hua, with rivers of blood and a scene too tragic to behold! If this continues, the literary world will face great concerns. I rushed out of the mountains on a swift horse, and wherever I went, I heard this chaos! All day long, on the top of Mount Hua, flags fluttered, and the major factions of the 1980s claimed territories. No rivers of blood were seen, but instead, scattered literary pamphlets! I sighed inwardly, missing the martial arts battles, but at least this was a fight of wits—a gentlemanly pursuit! So I picked up a pamphlet and sat on it, watching the situation unfold. After observing quietly, I saw nothing but: You curse him for whining without reason! He curses you for being a lackey of your sect! When their throats were dry, they swallowed a few mouthfuls of water and then spread the greatness of their sect's literature to their disciples. Alas! How can this chaos be settled? With a helpless shake of the head, I descended the mountain. A few days later, I carried a large bag of paper money and spirit money back up the mountain, but the scene was the same. So I scattered the paper money and spirit money into the air, sighing to the sky: Wasting an era, a wasted era, meaningless, tragic! I was cursed by all factions and called unlucky! I was like a newly crowned leader of the beggar gang, covered in sputum. The sputum was yellow and thick, with an unbearable stench! With a helpless shake of the head, I descended the mountain again. A few months later, I carried food and water up the mountain, but the sight made me weep. Corpses lay everywhere, and few survived. Those who had passed away had monuments erected, while the survivors were fed and watered. Everyone called it timely, timely! Regretting the pursuit of fame and fortune, I had wasted my time. Together, we descended the mountain. Alone on the top of Mount Hua, a cool breeze swept in, and the deceased were like dust. A few years later, there was no longer the chaos of swords and daggers in the literary world. Occasionally, visitors came to the mountain, thanking me for the wake-up call I gave them back then. Literature is a balm for the heart and mind, not a poison that drives people to seek profit! I was delighted! This was the true purpose of settling the chaos! A group of medical students, a portrayal of university life, a joke about youth. Bo Yu, a seasoned third-year student, met Qiu Shi and Dong Mei by chance during a weekend internship at the hospital. Qiu Shi and Dong Mei were young and talented entrepreneurs, though they were rivals in business, they harbored deep affection for each other in private. From the moment Bo Yu met Dong Mei at the internship hospital, he was destined to be a victim of a conspiracy! Dong Mei used cunning means to win Bo Yu's trust and then exploited Bo Yu's relationship with Qiu Shi to steal the data of a new medicine Qiu Shi had just developed. Unaware of the situation, Qiu Shi broke ties with Bo Yu, and Bo Yu lost his childhood sweetheart, Wen Quan. The novel maintains a consistent humorous style, with foreshadowing and climaxes, beginning and ending in a satisfying way. In this youth-themed novel, love is no longer the main theme, with friendship and family sharing the spotlight!
