Features: The female protagonists of this book are the four girls from Room 520 on the 13th floor of N University—Mi Xiaoru, Hai Xiaolan, Yin Xiaohēi, and Yuè Xiaomei. They share a room, yet possess distinct appearances, temperaments, and life experiences. The single eyelid girl Mi Xiaoru is naive and late-blooming, yet she faces rumors head-on, playing the role of the main character in campus gossip; the beautiful and cheerful Hai Xiaolan is dazzlingly radiant, but in the battlefield of love, she may not necessarily be destined for victory; the simple and ordinary Yin Xiaohēi, because of a certain him, also undergoes a transformation to become a graceful and charming fish; while the fairy tale writer Yuè Xiaomei is like an unclaimed cat, imagining that life has many possibilities. The unexpected appearance of Mr. Big makes her realize that the world can no longer return to the beginning place. The four girls at the peak of their youth, in the maze of their emotions, have had moments of hesitation, confusion, often feeling lost, and occasionally acting decisive and brave. What is the same is that they have never abandoned their initial dreams, persistently seeking the happiness of true love. The book is structured with chapters centered on each of the four girls, each independent yet interconnected. The seemingly casual transitions between scenes are full of tension, leaving a lingering aftertaste, patching together a genuine and enchanting depiction of youthful feelings, mysterious and hidden.
